Abstract Urban Heat Island (UHI) is a worldwide threat affecting building energy demand,
public health, and energy security. Green wall deployment can simultaneously positively …

Greywater has lower pathogen and nutrient levels than other mixed wastewaters, making it
easier to treat and to reuse in nature-based wastewater treatment systems. Green walls …

Vertical greening systems (VGS) are implemented in the building envelope to address
challenges such as the urban heat island effect, energy reduction, air purification, support of …

Vertical greenery systems (VGS) integrate vegetation into the building facades to reduce
wall surface temperature, thereby reducing building energy consumption. The mechanisms …

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the building's green façade on regulating the
indicators of daylight, visual comfort, heating and cooling load, and its features (such as the …

As the demand for new and green energy sources continues to increase, freshwater
resources are under increasing pressure, prompting the use of nonconventional production …

Water is the key resource in fulfilling the cooling function of plants in urban environments
and needs to be supplied reliably and adequately, especially during dry periods. To avoid …

Rainwater and sewage are important pollution sources for surface water bodies. Vertical
greening systems (VGSs) are extensively employed for these wastewater treatments due to …

This study investigates the effectiveness of vertical flow constructed wetlands (VFCWs)
planted with a climbing ornamental plant for on-site treatment of real laundry wastewater …

The world population has topped 8 billion and water scarcity is rising because of the effects
of climate change. The addition of plants to interior and exterior spaces has positive …
