“…If the current situation continues, the GHGs may increase from 0.04% to 0.084% in the next 50 years [4,6] as displayed in Figure 2(a). When the coastal greenbelt is implemented in the system, the intensity of the concentrations of GHGs drops gradually to approximately 0.058% instead of 0.084% [18,19,20,21]. Due to the reason of fall in the concentrations of GHGs under the control strategy, the atmospheric temperature can rise from 0.07 C and reach approximately 1.75 C, and not 0.07 C to 2.30 C in the next 50 years [1,6,9,10].…”

“…Greenbelt consisting of a heavy metal accumulated species was adapted around one industrial area (West Bengal, India) so that it could reduce the air pollution by absorbing pollutants emitted by industries [18]. To lower the concentrations of atmospheric chlorine, the greenbelt of Thuya Orientalis is very effective [19]. Greenbelt could be introduced by the roadsides of urban areas to control air pollution, emissions of carbon dioxide, and noise [20].…”

Global warming is adversely affecting the earth's climate system due to rapid emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs). Consequently, the world's coastal ecosystems are rapidly approaching a dangerous situation. In this study, we formulate a mathematical model to assess the impact of rapid emissions of GHGs on climate change and coastal ecosystems. Furthermore, we develop a mitigation method involving two control strategies: coastal greenbelt and desulfurization. Here, greenbelt is considered in coastal areas to reduce the concentrations of GHGs by absorbing the environmental carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), whereas desulfurization is considered in factories and industries to reduce GHG emissions by controlling the release of harmful sulfur compounds. The model and how it can control the situation are analytically verified. Numerical results of this study are confirmed by comparison with other studies that examine different scenarios. Results show that both control strategies can mitigate GHG concentrations, curtail global warming and to some extent manage climate change. The results further reveal that both control strategies are more effective than one control method. Overall, the results suggest that the concentrations of GHGs and the effects of climate change can be controlled by adopting sufficient coastal greenbelt and desulfurization techniques in various industries.

“…As presented by Dimbour, Dandrieux, and Dusserre (2002), chlorine concentration was also measured with PID-photo-ionization detector (RAE Systems, USA). Chlorine and hypochlorous acid in liquid samples collected in the lower part of the fluid curtain were analysed by the iodometric method (Scott, 1956).…”

“…Hazardous chemicals, such as chlorine gas, are transported and stored in large quantities; therefore, all containers for chlorine transport are pressure vessels made of steel and equipped with safety devices (Lees, 1996). Chlorine is a highly toxic element (immediately dangerous to life or health concentration value-IDLH Cl2 ¼ 10 ppm) that is produced in large quantities all over the world (Dimbour, Dandrieux, & Dusserre, 2002). Chlorine dioxide is finding increasing use as an oxidizing bleaching agent in replacing chlorine, and so on.…”
