Since December 2019, the COVID-19 epidemic has been spreading all over the world. This epidemic has brought a risk of death in the daily activity (physical and social) participation that influences travellers’ physical, social, and mental health. To analyze the impact of the COVID-19-induced daily activities on health parameters of higher education institutes, 150 students of the Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS, Perak, Malaysia, were surveyed through an online web survey using random sampling techniques. The data were analyzed through RStudio and SPSS using multilevel linear regression analysis and Hierarchical Structural Equation Modeling. The estimated results indicate that restricting individuals from doing out-of-home activities negatively influences physical and social health. A unit increase in the in-home maintenance activities during the COVID-19 pandemic introduced a daily increase of 0.5% in physical health. Moreover, a unit increase in the in-home activities at leisure time represents a 1% positive improvement in social health. Thus, physical activity has proven to be beneficial in improving physical and social health with severe COVID-19. In contrast, the coefficient of determination (R2) for all endogenous variables ranges from 0.148 to 0.227, which is incredibly acceptable in psychological research. For a healthier society with a better quality of life, this study adopted multidisciplinary approaches that are needed to be designed.
Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) is highly expected to be mitigating the discharges of carbon dioxide in a surrounding environment. Solvents are an integral part of CCS. So far, several solvents have been explored the interest of meeting the requirements such as accessibility, non-harmfulness, biocompatibility, recyclability, and inexpensiveness. However, most solvents face failure in fulfilling the requirements due to many factors, so, this review paper gives a brief discussion about another category of solvent, an analogue of ionic liquids (ILs) named deep eutectic solvent (DES). Extensive research has been done on DES in recent years because of their various attractive advantages, i.e., non-poisonousness, biodegradability, cheap cost and easy preparation, that make them as a promising green solvent for many industrial procedure and application, for instance, polymer synthesis, biodiesel treatment, green chemistry, electrochemistry etc. Therefore, this manuscript mainly focusses on CO2 capturing through DES in oil and gas field. In addition, the preparation and chemical structures of this novel solvent (DES) is also discussed. Moreover, a detailed study based on experimental solubility of CO2 in DESs is also reported in this article.
