Enhancing Point-of-Use Sand Filters through Integration of Copper Mesh
Authors: Kasaraneni Varun K. , Anaya Nelson M. , Taliani Maria
Published: August 2024

Ensuring access to safe drinking water remains a crucial global challenge, particularly in low-income and developing regions. Point-of-use (POU) sand filters, known for their affordability and efficiency, hold promise for improving water quality. This study explores the use of copper mesh (M-Cu) as a disinfectant in sand filters, focusing on its effectiveness against Escherichia coli (E. coli). Through a series of experiments—kinetic, batch, and column—we investigated the impact of M-Cu on bacterial inactivation. Our findings reveal that the contact time between the M-Cu and bacteria is more critical than the M-Cu mass for achieving significant microbial reduction. Specifically, 1.0 g of M-Cu can substantially reduce E. coli levels, achieving log removal values (LRVs) between 2.03 and 4.81 after 30 min of exposure, across initial bacterial concentrations ranging from 102 to 106 CFU/100 mL. For sand filter testing under dynamic conditions, columns containing 1.0 g of M-Cu achieved a 3.1 LRV, significantly outperforming control columns, which only achieved a 0.6 LRV. These results support the integration of M-Cu into sand filters as a viable strategy for enhancing microbial safety in water treatment, potentially reducing waterborne disease incidence in vulnerable populations.

(1) The enactment of Sub-Decree No. 113/2015 on Solid Waste Management marked a significant policy shift towards the decentralisation of waste management in Cambodia and some progress has been observed in Phnom Penh and some other large cities and tourist destinations. However, information in rural areas is lacking. Rapid and simple waste assessment methodologies are needed in rural areas where waste data is scarce and different waste management measures are required compared to urban areas. This study aimed to fill the information gap on the status and fate of municipal solid waste management in rural areas by focusing on three underrepresented cities in different geographical areas through empirical studies. (2) Rapid waste assessments, including waste composition analysis, truck scaling, waste recovery surveys, waste flow analysis, and waste hotspot surveys, were conducted. (3) The per capita waste generation averaged 0.44 kg/day, which is lower than the national average, but did not show significant differences between income levels. The waste composition was similar to that of urban areas, with plastics making up more than 20% of the waste. There were major contrasts in the waste collection rates, with one city having a high rate (85.9%) while the other two cities were as low as 22.6% and 24.2%, respectively. This suggests that rural cities in Cambodia are at different stages of transition in establishing their waste management systems after the decentralisation of waste management to municipalities. The main cause of the low waste collection rate was that private waste collectors were finding it difficult to collect service fees. In the absence of waste collection services, a total of 370 waste hotspots were identified outside of the waste collection areas, where littering and open burning of waste were common. (4) Addressing these challenges requires urgent development of sustainable financing mechanisms, enhanced institutional capacities, and implementation of targeted awareness-raising programmes. These measures are essential for providing basic waste collection and disposal services, as well as for curbing littering and open burning of waste in rural cities in Cambodia.

Este estudio presenta una perspectiva diferente para la política en América Latina, centrada en la generación de subjetividades políticas alternativas y la transformación personal. Se critica la imposición del liberalismo y se argumenta que las opciones electorales actuales no han producido un cambio significativo para la mayoría de la población. Se propone el uso del poder destituyente y la insurrección, en lugar de la revolución, como medios para reducir la influencia del estado. Esto implica la creación de comunidades de elección, cuyo criterio principal es el antagonismo compartido contra algún factor externo. Estas comunidades podrían abordar de manera más efectiva no solo la cuestión económica, sino también la del reconocimiento y los problemas derivados de la misma. Finalmente, se enfatiza que esta lucha no busca establecer ninguna ideología como base de su planteamiento y que sirva como guía. En cambio, se necesita aprender a reconocer y valorar las necesidades de las subjetividades que conforman el grupo, y atender a las mismas de manera directa, descubriendo en el contacto nuevas fuentes de sustento.

: O objetivo principal deste estudo é identificar o critério de escolha de turistas ao decidir pelo Parque Nacional dos Lençóis Maranhenses como um destino para passarem suas férias. Em particular, pretende-se ainda identificar quais fontes de informações o turista busca antes de viajar para esta região. Associar o destino turístico como uma marca/produto é uma forma de reconhecer as características que podem atrair (ou fazer o turista desistir) da ideia de conhecer o destino. Neste contexto, associou-se como marca de destino aos Lençóis Maranhenses as seguintes dimensões: sofisticação, robustez, excitação, convivialidade, ferocidade e conformidade. Os dados revelaram que o local provoca positivamente a atenção dos turistas por sua originalidade, sendo ainda um lugar elegante e charmoso na visão dos turistas. Sugere-se ainda que o turista brasileiro priorize por lugares prazerosos, que o faça sentir-se acolhido e venturoso. Identificou-se ainda que fontes oficiais do ponto turístico e a internet são fontes de informações que os turistas buscam sobre o destino. Neste sentido, o turista busca informações em portais e sites especializados para planejar antecipadamente as suas férias.

Authors: Jerin Rose G
Published: August 2024

Job discontent affects working conditions and other tasks performed by the institution, and it is a significant element in determining educational institutions. A worker’s emotional response to their work is known as job satisfaction, and it is determined by comparing the expected or desired outputs with the actual production. This study aimed to investigate how self-financed teachers feel about their jobs. Fifteen self-funded college instructors from the Kanyakumari District participated. For this investigation, a sample size of 165 has been determined. In this investigation, stratified proportionate random sampling was employed. The core data was gathered using a carefully designed questionnaire. The obtained data were analyzed using a correlation statistical tool to determine if the sample respondents were satisfied with their income and training possibilities. Therefore, the current study assesses how factors impact educational institutions and employment satisfaction.

Поскольку большую часть года лиственные деревья таежной зоны находятся без листьев, очень важно наличие в озеленительных посадках хвойных видов. Жесткие условия произрастания, складывающиеся для деревьев в крупных городах, ограничивают и без того скудный ассортимент видов для озеленения. Проблема расширения ассортимента решается введением интродуцентов. Однако для большинства регионов не разработаны рекомендации по использованию в озеленении наиболее перспективных видов, форм и сортов древесных растений. В статье, в соответствии с методикой Главного ботанического сада, выполнен анализ перспективности трех сортов ели колючей (Picea pungens Engelm.): P. pungens «Glauca globosa», P. pungens «Hoopsii» и P. pungens «Isely Fastigiata», завезенных в г. Екатеринбург из Польши. На основании интегральной балльной оценки установлено, что сорта P. pungens «Glauca globosa» и P. pungens «Isely Fastigiata» относятся к классу менее перспективных, а сорт P. pungens «Hoopsii» - к классу перспективных. Поскольку у экспериментальных растений двух первых сортов отсутствует возможность установления способности к генеративному развитию, оценку их перспективности следует считать предварительной. Вероятно, в дальнейшем показатель перспективности указанных выше сортов будет повышаться. Высокая перспективность и декоративность исследуемых сортов для озеленения северных городов в целом и г. Екатеринбурга в частности, позволяет рекомендовать продолжение исследований с целью повышения у растений морозостойкости и устойчивости к «обгоранию» хвои .

Authors:   , Casey Anthony ,   Munster Technological University
Published: August 2024

Background: The current research investigated the health, wellbeing and lifestyle behaviours of a cohort of 1st year male Gaelic Games student athletes (Study 1), and subsequently evaluated the impact of a bespoke intervention on these health, wellbeing and lifestyle behaviours in the same cohort (Study 2). Methods: Participants were 1st year male Gaelic Games student athletes (mean age 18.6 ± 0.6 years, n=166) in a university in southern Ireland. Data were collected using a mixed-methods approach during the 2018/19 and the 2019/20 academic years. Data collection consisted of an online questionnaire (Bickerdike et al., 2018), which assessed health, wellbeing and lifestyle behaviours and focus group discussion (Study 1). These results informed a bespoke health and wellbeing intervention (Study 2). The intervention consisted of interactive educational workshops (n=3) and a concurrent athlete mentoring programme. It was delivered and evaluated during the 2019/20 academic year with a post questionnaire and focus group discussions (n=6). Results/Conclusion: Study 1 revealed ‘very good’ or ‘good’ (95%) perceived general health. Breakfast was more favourable at the weekend (84.3%) than midweek (65.7%). Student athletes consumed 7+ standard drinks on a night out (59.6%) and ordered takeaway up to 4 times p/wk (27.1%). Pressure of part time work was significant in the LAA subgroup (p=0.01). Student athlete’s main priority was sport participation and their primary stressor was university exams. Study 2 revealed significant post-intervention improvements in general health (p=0.008), alcohol (p=0.04), fruit and vegetable consumption (p=0.001), sleep quality (p<0.01) and reduction in takeaways (p=0.014). Conclusion: This research revealed the health, wellbeing and lifestyle behaviours of 1st year male Gaelic Games student athletes are sub-optimal and concerning. Increased health and wellbeing education in conjunction with mentoring support should be provided to this cohort to help reduce the challenges they face in the transition period into university life.
An Analysis Of Lean Management Procedures In The Irish Audi And Volkswagen Dealer NetworkAn Analysis Of Lean Management Procedures In The Irish Audi And Volkswagen Dealer Network
Authors:   , Atkinson Clive ,   Cork Institute of Technology
Published: August 2024

"This study provides an analysis of lean management procedures within Irish motor retailers from the perspective of senior managers working in franchised Audi and Volkswagen dealerships. Richardson (2007) suggests the danger for some organisations operating in good economic conditions is the ability of poor performers to earn healthy profits through little effort, thereby creating a lack of urgency to improve processes within the business. This may be applicable to motor dealerships in Ireland since the advent of the “Celtic Tiger”. Advocates of lean management contend the implementation of lean techniques can increase efficiency within an organisation and create a sustainable competitive advantage. The implementation and effects of lean management within the Irish motor industry is a relatively unexplored area. The particular focus of this study is on the perceptions of senior managers within Irish motor dealerships who have implemented lean management in relation to its significance to increasing quality standards, performance and customer satisfaction levels. Additionally, the views of senior management within dealerships who are aware of lean management but have not embarked on its implementation are also included. Eleven interviews were conducted in total, seven of which were with senior managers representing dealerships who have implemented lean management techniques. Three interviews represent the views of managers within dealerships who have not implemented lean, while one interview gains an insight into the impact of lean management within the dealerships from the perspective of the distributor. Overall, the study shows that where lean management has been implemented it has had a positive influence. Additionally, the study reveals that when a thorough understanding and commitment to lean is present there are many benefits for an organisation and its people. Finally, in agreement with many advocates of lean management the study suggests that lean is a long term project which requires commitment and patience."
Investigating the Scenes of Daily Activities on Ancient Elamite seals during the Susa II Period
Authors: REZAEI Mohammad Hossein , ARAB Hasan Ali , ENTEZARIAN Mohsen
Published: August 2024

A seal is typically made of stone or mineral material, ivory, shell, metal, wood, clay, or a combination of bitumen, and usually bears an engraved design. In this study, we aim to examine and analyze the scenes related to daily activities depicted on Elamite seals. In this research, 29 seal impressions associated with scenes of daily activities from the Susa II period have been investigated and evaluated. The selection of these seal impressions was based on factors such as the clear location of discovery, precise dating, clarity of the designs and scenes on the seal (lack of damage to the engraving), and the credibility of the source providing information about the seal and its impression. In this study, Elamite seals (Susa II) have been compared in terms of iconography, classification, and then with contemporaneous seals in Mesopotamia. Generally, the motifs observed on Elamite seals of the Susa II period that can be classified within the framework of daily activities include: agriculture and cultivation, animal husbandry, issuance and transportation of goods, activities related to grain storage, workshop activities, hunting, and minstrelsy. By examining these motifs, it can be observed that women were often engaged in agricultural activities, work in various workshops such as pottery and weaving, and some activities related to animal husbandry, while men were engaged in more physically demanding and time-consuming tasks; for example, men were more involved in agriculture, hunting, animal husbandry, and laboring.

This study examines an inscribed brick from the reign of the Middle Elamite King Untaš-Napiriša (ca. 1275-1240 BCE). The brick, unearthed in Choγā Zanbil not long ago, is currently under the ownership of a privately held collection in Shiraz. Its current location allowed us to thoroughly examine and decipher the text inscribed on it. By conducting a basic analysis and comparing it with other similar bricks, it becomes evident that this brick is identical to the one documented in MDP 41 as “12 (Pl. V, 2)”.

Among the, now lost, hoard of Roman coins presented by Filipova, three were the coins of the female dynasts of the Severan dynasty with the VENVS VICTRIX legend on the reverse. The article examines the iconography of the coins in the light of the previous examples of the issues with the same legend. The conclusion is made that the reference to the goddess ideologically linked the dynasty with the predecessors however special reverence might also suggest an exceptional religious connection of the empresses with Venus, the deity which guaranteed in all her incarnations and aspects the permanence of the domus divina.

SPEECH DISORDERS IN ADULTS WITH BRAIN INJURY
Authors: LITVINENKO I.V. ,   S. M. Kirov Military Medical Academy, LOSEVA S.M. ,   Pushkin Leningrad State University
Published: August 2024

Introduction. Currently, there is an increase in the number of adults in need of speech therapy due to the increased incidence of loss of speech skills due to various causes, including traumatic brain injury. Speech disorders in patients with traumatic brain injury are represented by aphasia, dysarthria, speech mutism, dysphonia, and, less frequently, stuttering. The presence of a speech defect after a craniocerebral trauma reduces patients' communicative abilities, daily life activity, and contributes to their social isolation. Materials and methods. In the course of the study the methods of theoretical analysis of scientific sources of medical-psychological-pedagogical character were used, oriented on studying the current state of rehabilitation of persons with speech pathology among the adult population. Results. Results. At the present stage of development of defectology and, in particular, speech therapy, intensive work is carried out in the health care system to improve speech therapy for adults with speech pathology. In the acute period after stabilisation of vital functions the patient begins to evaluate his condition: difficulties in speech communication, limitation of independent movement, social and domestic incompetence, the possibility of returning to work is questioned. All this leads to depression, to a number of other mental disorders, which are the cause of social deprivation. The assistance provided by a speech therapist at the earliest stages of the disease to a patient with speech pathology is an important link to the successful management of the patient at further stages of rehabilitation, to achieve the maximum level of functioning, social participation and thus improve the quality of life. Discussion and Conclusion. Rehabilitation of adult patients with traumatic brain injury is a multidisciplinary problem, which is located at the junction of sciences: neurology, psychology, defectology, correctional pedagogy and is currently one of the most significant in modern healthcare. Focal and diffuse brain lesions in adults as a result of craniocerebral trauma are often accompanied by gross and persistent disorders of higher mental functions, including speech. At present, research in the field of speech disorders in adults with traumatic brain injury continues with the aim of solving both theoretical and practical problems of diagnosis to establish the nature of speech deficit, the choice of speech therapy tactics and further rehabilitation programme.

input impedance of the rectifier was measured
experimentally to design the match network. On the other
hand, the antenna that makes up the rectenna is a
microstrip patch antenna. The present rectenna was
evaluated in three environments where the maximum
voltage was 80 mV for an outdoor environment.

The scarcity of funds for acquiring industrial-type equipment and devices for laboratory practices at technological universities is a recurring issue. This financial constraint is particularly evident in the educational program of engineering in Biofood Processes at the Technological University of Tecamachalco, where the absence of drying equipment for water reduction practices in fruits and vegetables is a pressing concern. To address this, we have developed a prototype of a convection dryer. The Mechatronics engineering research group has been at the forefront of developing this innovative prototype. Our team has harnessed the power of a PID control system, integrating a microcontroller, a potentiometer for temperature programming, and an-LED screen for real-time monitoring. This stateof-the-art design is a testament to our commitment to advancing laboratory equipment. If the temperature is reduced, the installed electrical resistances will be activated. If the upper limit of the programmed temperature is exceeded, an air extractor placed in the upper part of the prototype will be activated to reduce it as necessary.After rigorous testing, we conducted three water reduction tests on apples with the guidance of food engineering experts. The apples were subjected to a temperature of 60 °C for approximately two hours, a condition necessary to prevent any deterioration. In all three tests, we successfully reduced the water activity from 70% to 12%, a crucial step for preservation. With the successful completion of the tests, the prototype was transitioned to the Food Engineering laboratory, ready for practical use. This significant advancement in our ability to carry out laboratory practices offers a promising solution to the lack of industrial-type equipment in our educational program. We are optimistic about the potential impact of this prototype and look forward to seeing it in action.

The health office is one of the offices in East Sumba district in charge of public health in the region. Health offices assisted by puskesmas in each sub-district aim to create equitable public health services. Currently, in general, health office employees use wifi networks to access the internet and there is no wifi channel management, so when accessing the internet there are often collisions / overlapping. The Health Office must be able to access national applications such as the Local Government Information System (SIPD) so that employees can input Work Plan and Budget (RKA) documents, Budget Implementation Documents (DPA) and many other applications. The purpose of this study is how to manage the wifi channel on the connected network so that there is no overlapping or collision when sending data. This study will be compared when overlapping occurs and after doing wifi channel management at the East Sumba Health Office. From the results of QOS (Quality Of Services) review, a comparison of packages before and after channel management is obtained. For comparison of changes in throughput, Packet loss, delay and jitter decreased in all areas, namely husada1, P2P and finance (kawa'dak). After calculation, the average throughput is -47.21%, Packet loss -90.21%, delay -58.14% and jitter -45.64% which means network quality based on throughput decreases while based on Packet loss, delay, and jitter increases due to Packet loss significantly reduced, packet delivery time and variation.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis strategi image repair Polri dalam Tragedi Kanjuruhan. Banyak pihak menyayangkan peristiwa ini, hingga saling lempar tanggung jawab pun terjadi, termasuk anggapan bahwa kepolisian dianggap bersalah karena melanggar aturan FIFA mengenai tembakan gas air mata. Tentu, akibat peristiwa ini citra kepolisian dipertaruhkan dan pemulihan citra pun diperlukan. Dengan menggunakan metode analisis isi kualitatif melalui teks yang diterbitkan Kompas.com periode 1 Oktober – 1 November 2022, diperoleh hasil bahwa pihak Polri berfokus pada pengembalian citra dengan banyak menggunakan strategi-strategi seperti simple denial, provocation, defeasibility, good intention, bolstering, compensation dan corrective action. Namun, hasil juga menunjukkan adanya ketidakkonsistenan dan pengabaian strategi permintaan maaf atau mortification oleh Polri. Padahal, strategi ini sangat diperlukan ketika organisasi dilanda suatu krisis.
