    Abstract Precisely predicting the amount of household hazardous waste (HHW) and classifying it intelligently is crucial for effective city management. Although data-driven models have the potential to address these problems, there have been few studies utilizing this approach for HHW prediction and classification due to the scarcity of available data. To address this, the current study employed the prophet model to forecast HHW quantities based on the Integration of Two Networks systems in Shanghai. HHW classification was performed using HVGGNet structures, which were based on VGG and transfer learning. To expedite the process of finding the optimal global learning rate, the method of cyclical learning rate was adopted, thus avoiding the need for repeated testing. Results showed that the average rate of HHW generation was 0.1 g/person/day, with the most significant waste categories being fluorescent lamps (30.6 %), paint barrels (26.1 %), medicine (26.2 %), battery (15.8 %), thermometer (0.03 %), and others (1.22 %). Recovering rare earth element (18.85 kg), Cd (3064.10 kg), Hg (15643.43 kg), Zn (14239.07 kg), Ag (11805.81 kg), Ni (4956.64 kg) and Li (1081.45 kg) from HHW can help avoid groundwater pollution, soil contamination and air pollution. HVGGNet-11 demonstrated 90.5 % precision and was deemed most suitable for HHW sorting. Furthermore, the prophet model predicted that HHW in Shanghai would increase from 794.43 t in 2020 to 2049.67 t in 2025.

    Abstract Conventional toxicity testing methods that rely on animal experimentation are resource-intensive, time-consuming, and ethically controversial. Therefore, the development of alternative non-animal testing approaches is crucial. This study proposes a novel hybrid graph transformer architecture, termed Hi-MGT, for the toxicity identification. An innovative aggregation strategy, referred to as GNN-GT combination, enables Hi-MGT to simultaneously and comprehensively aggregate local and global structural information of molecules, thus elucidating more informative toxicity information hidden in molecule graphs. The results show that the state-of-the-art model outperforms current baseline CML and DL models on a diverse range of toxicity endpoints and is even comparable to large-scale pretrained GNNs with geometry enhancement. Additionally, the impact of hyperparameters on model performance is investigated, and a systematic ablation study is conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the GNN-GT combination. Moreover, this study provides valuable insights into the learning process on molecules and proposes a novel similarity-based method for toxic site detection, which could potentially facilitate toxicity identification and analysis. Overall, the Hi-MGT model represents a significant advancement in the development of alternative non-animal testing approaches for toxicity identification, with promising implications for enhancing human safety in the use of chemical compounds.

    Abstract Among various remediation methods for organic-contaminated soil, thermal desorption stands out due to its broad treatment range and high efficiency. Nonetheless, analyzing the contribution of factors in complex soil remediation systems and deducing the results under multiple conditions are challenging, given the complexities arising from diverse soil properties, heating conditions, and contaminant types. Machine learning (ML) methods serve as a powerful analytical tool that can extract meaningful insights from datasets and reveal hidden relationships. Due to insufficient research on soil thermal desorption for remediation of organic sites using ML methods, this study took organic pollutants represented by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as the research object and sorted out a comprehensive data set containing >700 data points on the thermal desorption of soil contaminated with PAHs from published literature. Several ML models, including artificial neural network (ANN), random forest (RF), and support vector regression (SVR), were applied. Model optimization and regression fitting centered on soil remediation efficiency, with feature importance analysis conducted on soil and contaminant properties and heating conditions. This approach enabled the quantitative evaluation and prediction of thermal desorption remediation effects on soil contaminated with PAHs. Results indicated that ML models, particularly the RF model (R

    Abstract The escalating use of alicyclic compounds in modern industrial production has led to a rapid increase of these substances in the environment, posing significant health hazards. Addressing this challenge necessitates a comprehensive understanding of these compounds, which can be achieved through the deep learning approach. Graph neural networks (GNN) known for its' extraordinary ability to process graph data with rich relationships, have been employed in various molecular prediction tasks. In this study, alicyclic molecules screened from PCBA, Toxcast and Tox21 are made as general bioactivity and biological targets' activity prediction datasets. GNN-based models are trained on the two datasets, while the Attentive FP and PAGTN achieve best performance individually. In addition, alicyclic carbon atoms make the greatest contribution to biological activity, which indicate that the alicycle structures have significant impact on the carbon atoms' contribution. Moreover, there are terrific number of active molecules in other public datasets, indicates that alicyclic compounds deserve more attention in POPs control. This study uncovered deeper structural-activity relationships within these compounds, offering new perspectives and methodologies for academic research in the field.

    Abstract It is crucial to precisely estimate the municipal solid waste (MSW) amount for its sustainable management. Owing to learning complicated and abstract features between the factors and target, deep learning has recently emerged as one of the useful tools with potential to predict the MSW amount. Therefore, this study aimed to design an MSW amount predicted system in Shanghai, consisting of Attention (A), one-dimensional convolutional neural network (C), and long short-term memory (L), to investigate the relationship between exogenous series (24 socioeconomics factors and past MSW amount) and target (MSW amount). The role of Attention, 1D-CNN, LSTM played on the MSW predicted amount also have investigated. The results show that attention is crucial for decoding the encoding information, which would improve performance between predicted and known MSW amount (R

Therefore, this study aimed to design an MSW amount predicted system in Shanghai, consisting of Attention (A), one-dimensional convolutional neural network (C), and long short-term memory (L), to investigate the relationship between exogenous series (24 socioeconomics factors and past MSW amount) and target (MSW amount). The role of Attention, 1D-CNN, LSTM played on the MSW predicted amount also have investigated. The results show that attention is crucial for decoding the encoding information, which would improve performance between predicted and known MSW amount (R² in A-L-C, L-A-C, L-C-A was 89.45%, 90.77%, and 95.31%, respectively.). CNN modules appear to be positioned similarly across the MSW predicted system. Finally, R² in L-A-C, A-L-C, and A-C-L was 85.44%, 91.61%, and 89.45%, which suggested that LSTM as an intermediary between CNN and Attention modules seems a wise measure to predict the MSW amount based on the correlation efficiency. In addition, some socioeconomic factors including the average number of people in households and budget revenue may be chosen for the decision-making of MSW management in Shanghai city in the future, according to the weight of neurons in fully connected layers by the visual technology.

    Abstract An intelligent and efficient methodology is needed owning to the continuous increase of global municipal solid waste (MSW). This is because the common methods of manual and semi-mechanical screenings not only consume large amount of manpower and material resources but also accelerate virus community transmission. As the categories of MSW are diverse considering their compositions, chemical reactions, and processing procedures, etc., resulting in low efficiencies in MSW sorting using the traditional methods. Deep machine learning can help MSW sorting becoming into a smarter and more efficient mode. This study for the first time applied MSWNet in MSW sorting, a ResNet-50 with transfer learning. The method of cyclical learning rate was taken to avoid blind finding, and tests were repeated until accidentally encountering a good value. Measures of visualization were also considered to make the MSWNet model more transparent and accountable. Results showed transfer learning enhanced the efficiency of training time (from 741 s to 598.5 s), and improved the accuracy of recognition performance (from 88.50% to 93.50%); MSWNet showed a better performance in MSW classsification in terms of sensitivity (93.50%), precision (93.40%), F1-score (93.40%), accuracy (93.50%) and AUC (92.00%). The findings of this study can be taken as a reference for building the model MSW classification by deep learning, quantifying a suitable learning rate, and changing the data from high dimensions to two dimensions.

    Abstract The escalating generation of hazardous waste (HW) has become a pressing concern worldwide, straining waste management systems and posing significant health hazards. Addressing this challenge necessitates an accurate understanding of HW generation, which can be achieved through the application of advanced models. The Transformer model, known for its ability to capture complex nonlinear processes, proves invaluable in extracting essential features and making precise HW generation predictions. To enhance comprehension of the key factors influencing HW generation, visualization techniques such as SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) provide insightful explanations. In this study, a novel approach combining classical deep learning algorithms with the Transformer model is proposed, yielding impressive results with an R² value of 0.953 and an RMSE of 7.284 for HW prediction. Notably, among the five key fields considered—demographics, socio-economics, industrial production, environmental governance, and medical health—industrial production emerges as the primary contributor, accounting for over 50% of HW generation. Moreover, a high rate of industrial development is anticipated to further accelerate this process.

Accordingly, this study examined the effect of temperature and phosphorus in a fluidized bed combustion process to understand the emission and distribution of heavy metals by both experimental and thermodynamic calculations. The experimental results indicated that the sodium-phosphate reactions occur before the sodium-silicate reaction in the solid phase when the ratio of P/Na was 1/2.
