Natural organic matter issue (NOM) is a delegated class of harmful poisons in water that must be evacuated by utilizing efficient and eco-accommodating treatment procedures to chop down water contamination. In this, a composite of the evacuation of NOM utilizing fluorinated and non-fluorinated calcium zincate composite joined over rock by splash pyrolysis technique was accounted for. The created material was portrayed by checking electron microscopy, vitality dispersive X-beam, Fourier change infrared spectroscopy and X-beam diffraction spectroscopy. Response parameters like starting centralization of NOM and oxidant (H2O2), introductory pH and light time were improved utilizing the Reaction surface technique (RSM). Later, photocatalytic movement of fluorinated/non-fluorinated calcium zincate under conditions streamlined by RSM to debase NOM in city wastewater upon daylight presentation was resolved. NOM's degree of debasement was estimated using UV/noticeable spectrophotometer, Fourier change infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and elite fluid chromatography (HPLC). Water quality parameters, such as natural oxygen request, substance oxygen request, and aggregate natural carbon, were resolved. Treated wastewater can be reused for water systems, washing and mechanical procedures.

Authors: Mukhtar Ahmad  , Muhammad Jamil  , Saeed Ullah  , Shakirullah  , Mubarik Ali
Published: January 2025

Background: Rising temperatures globally make it harder to produce dairy products, especially because heat stress influences cattle's physiology, milk production, and reproduction. To come up with ways to keep dairy farming going in warm areas, it's important to understand how heat stress works. Aims: The study was conducted to look into how heat stress affects the dairy cattle in Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan, including their milk production, food intake, behavior, and ability to reproduce. Methods: From July 2023 to June 2024, 200 dairy animals (100 cows and 100 buffaloes) were used in a cross-sectional study. Physiological factors were observed, such as the temperature of the rectal area, the rate of breathing, and heart rate. The amount of milk produced and its make-up (fat, protein, and solids) were studied, along with the animals' dry matter intake, water intake, and behavior. It was kept track of reproductive success indicators like the rate of conception and time between calves. Pearson's association were used to look at the data. Results: Buffaloes’ rectal temperatures (39.5 ± 0.6°C) and breathing rates (45 ± 5 breaths/min) were higher than cows' (39.2 ± 0.5°C and 42 ± 4 breaths/min). But buffaloes had higher fat (6.5 ± 0.6%) and protein (4.5 ± 0.4%), even though cows gave more milk (12.1 ± 2.3 L/day) but their fat content was significantly low. When animals were under heat stress, they ate less food and drank more water. There were strong links (p < 0.01) between the temperature-humidity index (THI) and physiological stress and a weak link (r = -0.68, p < 0.01) between THI and milk output. Reproductive performance went down, with longer times between calves and shorter periods of estrus. Conclusion: Heat stress is harmful for dairy cows because it changes their physiological stability, output and fertility. To make the animals more resilient and productive in hot places, we need to use tactics like genetic selection, better housing and changes to their nutrition.

Published: January 2025

The high levels of waste and inefficiency frequently found in traditional fashion production techniques, which significantly worsen the environment, are a significant problem facing the fashion industry today. In this study, the revolutionary effects of lean manufacturing techniques and AI-driven sustainable management on operational efficiency in the US fashion sector are investigated. In addition to enhancing operational effectiveness, the project intends to investigate how using AI technology might improve sustainability. Applying AI to improve supply chain transparency, resource efficiency, and sustainable design principles is the main focus of the study. Finding practical ways that fashion firms may use AI to enhance operational results and sustainability initiatives is the aim of this study. There is a significant knowledge vacuum on how these technologies can be successfully incorporated into the current frameworks of the industry. Using a qualitative technique, the study bases its conclusions on secondary sources from academic literature, industry reports, and expert analyses. According to the analysis, AI significantly increases operational efficiency by promoting sustainable design choices, lowering overproduction, and improving supply chain transparency. These findings answer the research question on the potential of AI to transform operational processes in the fashion sector. By emphasizing the role of technology in accomplishing sustainability objectives, the study adds to both scholarly discussion and real-world applications. While practitioners are urged to adopt AI solutions for increased efficiency and decreased environmental impact, academics can benefit from developing theoretical frameworks on technology adoption in sustainability contexts. The limitations of the study include its reliance on secondary data, which might not fully capture the subtleties of primary operations across a range of fashion businesses. Future studies could look at customer behavior toward sustainable practices and longitudinal studies on AI applications across different industry segments. Policy suggestions include funding educational initiatives to raise consumer knowledge of sustainable fashion options and offering incentives to companies that implement AI-driven sustainable practices.

Waste banks are an alternative waste management in Indonesia. This waste bank is one of the strategies for implementing 3R (Reuse, Reduce, Recycle) in managing waste at the source at the community level with an economic incentive pattern. This research aims to provide an understanding of waste banks for re-management and to classify types of waste. Apart from that, waste banks also play an important role in establishing a sustainable lifestyle through several discussions. First, the waste bank increases environmental awareness among the school environment, changes mindsets towards waste, and inspires behavioral changes towards a cleaner and more sustainable environment. Second, active community participation in waste banks strengthens citizen involvement in waste management and creates a participatory climate in environmental decision making. Third, waste banks open up local economic opportunities by creating products from waste, helping to empower the local community's economy, and reducing social inequality. Furthermore, waste banks reduce the use of new natural resources by processing used goods into useful products, helping to reduce pressure on the environment. The method used using practical guidance and counseling is a method where a group of people with problems (clients) are helped to feel and act more pleasantly by interacting with someone who is not troublesome. The guidance provided can increase students' creativity and motivation to protect the school environment and social environment.

Gold mining in Sekotong District has raised concerns among the government. This gold mining should not be allowed to continue continuously, because it can disrupt the continuity of the ecosystem. One of the main problems is the disposal of mining waste which has damaged the environment. This article was written using the library research method, namely by codifying scientific sources from various journals and articles with the same data and then combining them to obtain information about the impact of gold mining waste in the Sekotong area, West Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. The wide distribution of mercury and cyanide is due to the fact that these two chemicals are very efficient in processing gold ore. However, both of them are also chemicals that are very dangerous for the environment. In addition, the distribution of heavy metals resulting from waste from traditional gold mining is greatly influenced by soil conditions, such as temperature and rock disintegration. Various biological and microbiological processes can concentrate metals in the soil, and heavy metal contamination usually accumulates at depths of up to 75 cm above the soil surface. Mercury and manganese waste resulting from gold processing can enter river ecosystems, dissolve in the water, and sink to the bottom of the water, where they will accumulate in sediment. This waste not only settles in sediment, but some of it will also enter the body tissues of biota that live in river waters.

El presente trabajo de investigación propone el estudio del efecto de los parámetros de soldadura láser realizados sobre una placa de aluminio (AA6061), mediante un análisis estadístico. Este se llevará a cabo con la implementación de un Diseño de Experimentos (DoE), con el que se podrá evaluar la geometría de los cordones de soldadura. Los principales factores implicados que modifican esta morfología son la amplitud de oscilación del haz láser y la potencia. Las macrografías obtenidas permitieron observar que la modificación de la amplitud de oscilación del haz láser (wobble) incide notablemente en la geometría de los cordones, obteniéndose geometrías cuadradas y cónicas según su manipulación. Asimismo, la potencia del láser es otro factor que influye en la penetración del cordón.

En el presente trabajo se realizó el análisis macrográfico de la influencia paramétrica del modo de transferencia RMD™ en la soldadura de chapas de acero inoxidable de calibre fino (1,2mm). Mediante la aplicación de un Diseño Factorial de Experimentos (DoE) 2³, se analizó el efecto de la velocidad de avance, la velocidad de avance de la antorcha de soldadura y la longitud del arco (Arc Length) sobre la morfología del cordón. Como respuestas, se cuantificaron la continuidad del cordón, la dilución del material de aporte en el metal base y la relación de aspecto mediante el análisis de imagen digital de las secciones transversales del cordón. Posteriormente, se observaron las diferentes morfologías de los cordones producidos en los experimentos. Mediante el análisis de la varianza (ANOVA) se determinó que la velocidad de avance y la longitud del arco son los parámetros que más influyen en la morfología y la relación de aspecto de los cordones. y el aspecto de los cordones.

Early marriages, especially among girls, remain a critical issue in Pakistan, with rural regions such as Rajanpur in South Punjab being among the most affected. This research investigates the underlying causes of early girls' marriages in Rajanpur, focusing on socio-economic, cultural, educational, and legal factors. By employing a quantitative research method by using questionnaire of five point Likert scales and collect 200 respondent data from rural and urban areas of district Rajanpur. The study examines how deep-rooted traditions, poverty, lack of education, and weak law enforcement contribute to the persistence of early marriages. Findings suggest that in Rajanpur, early marriages are driven largely by poverty, as families marry off daughters to reduce financial burdens, and by cultural norms that view early marriage as a means to preserve family honor. The lack of access to education for girls further exacerbates the problem, reinforcing gender inequalities and limiting future opportunities. Moreover, the failure to enforce existing child protection laws leaves many girls vulnerable. This paper concludes with recommendations for policy interventions, such as improving access to education, strengthening legal frameworks, and raising community awareness. The findings are aimed at informing policymakers and community leaders to develop targeted strategies that address the root causes of early marriages and support the empowerment of girls in the region.

Tuberculoma involving the cerebellopontine angle is very rare. Preoperative neuroradiological features of such lesions may mimic neoplastic lesions. Our case presented with cerebellar features and multiple cranial nerve palsy. Neuroimaging mimicked CP angle neoplastic lesion. Antitubercular therapy and steroids resulted in significant clinical improvement and marked radiological reduction in size of the lesion. In our subcontinent a treatable infective cause like tuberculosis should be ruled out in CP angle lesions. Although rare but definitely a possibility to be considered.
An antioxidant activity of Cinnamonum tamala improves histopathological alterations and biochemical parameters in alloxan induced diabetic rats

Background: Diabetic mellitus is a multifactorial disorder associated with its devastating consequences has assumed epidemic proportion. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a global health problem and the incidence of DM is increasing at alarming rate all over the world. Many Indian medicinal plants have been reported to possess potential antidiabetic activity and could play important role in the management of diabetes with less adverse effects.
Aims and Objectives: The main objective of this study was to focus on the anti-diabetic activity of Cinnamomum tamala, with special reference to its curative and protective role in alloxan induced diabetic rats. Attempts were further made to study the antioxidant properties of C. tamala leaves.
Materials and Methods: The diabetic rats were administered orally with the aqueous leaves extracts of Cinnamonum tamala (250 mg/kg) for 30 days. The results were compared with standard drug Tolbutamide.
Result: The alloxan treated diabetic control rats showed a significant increase in the plasma glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C), glucose-6-phosphatase, aldolase, LDH, ALT, AST, ALP and GGT activity, freeradicals formation with a concomitant decrease in glycogen content in the liver and serum insulin level and phosphoglucoisomerase and hexokinase activity in tissues as compared to normal control rats. Oral administration of C. tamala extract for 30 days showed significant result as compared to Tolbutamide and diabetic control rats.
Conclusion: On the basis of above findings it can be concluded that extracts of C. tamala to alloxan induced diabetic rats showed significant positive changes in the biochemical and histopathological parametersrelated to carbohydrate and protein metabolism.

Background: Chinese and English listeners did not show the same left-hemisphere (LH) lateralization as Thai listeners when making perceptual judgments of Thai tones. Although the left hemisphere is selectively employed for processing linguistic information irrespectively of acoustic cues or subtype of phonological unit, the right-hemisphere (RH) is employed for prosody-specific cues.
Aims and Objective: As both hemispheres are lateralized for speech and language, the objective of this study is to extend the investigation of how the pre-attentive processing of contour tone changes of Thai monosyllabic words in alcoholic drinkers.
Materials and Methods: Forty healthy right-handed adults participated in this study.
Results: This study found that both rising-to-falling and falling-to-rising tone changes perception elicited Mismatch Negativity (MMN) between 217-264 msec with reference to the standard-stimulus Event-Related Potentials (ERPs). The rising-to-falling and falling-to-rising tone changes elicited a strong MMN for both groups. Source localization was obtained in the Middle Temporal Gyrus (MTG) of the right hemisphere (RH) for both groups.
Conclusion: Automatic detection of changes in contour tones is a useful index of language universal auditory memory traces.
