Substrates are the important component of constructed wetlands (CWs), which have an effect on construction cost, purification capability and stable operation, so that substrate optimization is the key part of CWs design. The comprehensive evaluation system, including four layers, eleven indicators and nine schemes, for substrates in vertical-flow CWs treating domestic wastewater was established based on analytic hierarchy process. Then combined with Delphi method and fuzzy synthetic evaluation approach, zeolite, anthracite, shale, vermiculite, ceramic filter material, gravel, steel slag, bio-ceramic and combination substrate (isopyknic layered anthracite, bio-ceramic and zeolite) were evaluated from the viewpoints of purification effect, practical performance and economic analysis. The results showed that phosphorus removal, nitrogen removal, chemical stability were the main factors of substrate selection. Combination substrate was the best scheme among nine substrates. Zeolite was ideal substrate for nitrogen removal and biocompatibility, while anthracite and steel slag were ideal substrates for phosphorus removal. The comprehensive evaluation system of substrates was beneficial to comprehensive compare all aspects of performance for different substrates, and could be improved according to the actual situation of engineering applications, so as to provide guidance of substrate selection for CWs design.

This research mainly focused on the phosphorus removal performance of pilot-scale vertical flow constructed wetlands with steel slag (SS) and modified steel slag (MSS). First, bench-scale experiments were conducted to evaluate the phosphorus adsorption capacity. Results showed that the Langmuir model could better describe the adsorption characteristics of the two materials; the maximum adsorption of MSS reached 12.7 mg/g, increasing by 34% compared to SS (9.5 mg/g). Moreover, pilot-scale constructed wetlands with SS and MSS were set up outdoors. Then, the influence of hydraulic retention time (HRT) and phosphorus concentration in phosphorus removal for two wetlands were investigated. Results revealed that better performance of the two systems could be achieved with an HRT of 2 d and phosphorus concentration in the range of 3–4.5 mg/L; the system with MSS had a better removal efficiency than the one with SS in the same control operation. Finally, the study implied that MSS could be used as a promising substrate for wetlands to treat wastewater with a high phosphorus concentration. However, considering energy consumption, SS could be regarded as a better alternative for substrate when treating sewage with a low phosphorus concentration.

<p>With the increasingly serious environmental problems, how to achieve the sustainable development of environment and economic has become a widespread concern at home and abroad. Through the research and analysis of clean production and clean production evaluation index system of domestic and foreign, and according to statistical theory, the reasonable and effective sampling method was determined. By researching the printing equipment manufacture and equipment applied enterprise of domestic, the data contained printing equipment energy use, emissions and product characteristic was obtained. By using the method of expert advice and factor analysis, clean production evaluation indicators and index system was determined.</p>

High-rise buildings in China has developed rapidly in recent years and problems such as construction and vertical transportation have been paid close attention more and more by society. The safety project management objective system mentioned in this article has comprehensively considered the characteristics of high-rise construction and vertical transportation and provided a comprehensive evaluation system for vertical transportation equipment for high-rise construction, which may be used for guiding equipment selection and optimization of equipment use. Meanwhile, the study results are applied in practical project to verify its effectiveness and practicability, so as to guide the enterprises to reasonably select and use vertical transportation equipment for high-rise construction and to realize the integration benefits of the project.

To guarantee the run effectiveness of the quality management system(QMS), a comprehensive evaluation system of the QMS’s effectiveness is brought forward. In the evaluation system, first the evaluation flow chart is set up; Second the evaluation index is given out; Third the evaluation result is given out by the calculate of the grey integration evaluation arithmetic. The organization can find out why the effectiveness of the QMS is weak and establish improvement measure from the comprehensive evaluation result.

ABSTRACT The comprehensive performance evaluation system of public sports service is an important part of public sports service system in China. How to objectively and comprehensively evaluate the present situation of public sports service performance in our country has always been a difficult problem in the development of public sports service. Based on the five principles of constructing the recipient satisfaction index, the PCSSI model of the comprehensive evaluation system of public sports service supply was constructed using scale design. Large-scale stadiums in seven districts of Shenyang were selected for investigation. The recipient satisfaction index model was established to compare the satisfaction index of the 7 regions, and analyze the influencing factors of the satisfaction index of public sports service supply, and put forward some suggestions for improving the service level of large stadiums and gymnasiums in Shenyang. Practice has proved that the application of the PCSSI model has a positive effect on improving the performance level of public sports service supply in China.
