The PoWR code solves the non-LTE radiative transfer problem in a spherically expanding atmosphere simultaneously with thestatistical equilibrium equations while accounting for energyconservation.

Galaxy evolution versus global environment
Role of denser galaxy density is relatively clear, but for very low density regions (voids) the effect of
environment is poorly known. Voids are delineated by luminous (L > L*) massive
objects, are populated by dwarfs and devoid of luminous objects. Void properties can vary.
Not only galaxy interactions occur in voids much less frequently, but also DM halo and galaxy formation from density perturbations can be somewhat retarded due to the lower void mean gravitational potential.

The void galaxies: census and evolutionary status
The basic relation “O/H vs M_B” as derived on the Local Volume groups and field dwarfs (van Zee & Haynes 2006, the upper dashed line) and O/H, observed in void dwarfs
The line shifted by 1 mag (or ~0.15 dex on O/H) better accounts for possible systematic lower O/H in the void
Several extremely low O/H dwarfs: very rare special cases
