Personal data protection in the Internet
Authors: Samahalska Y.
Published: June 2024

A personal daily communication is connected with giving and receiving a large amount of information. A common visit to a website can provide its owner with information about its users (cookies). A registration will provide the owner with a confidential information. In this view, it became necessary to protect a person and to regulate a separate subtype of such information called “personal data”.
The concept of “personal data” is not new for Ukraine. The Law “On Protection of Personal Data” was adopted in 2010, however, the practice of its realization shows that the subjects of relations related to personal data interpret it quite superficially. Thus, the owners and managers of personal data formally, without specifying the purpose and method of processing, notify the subject of personal data that his personal data will be processed. And the subjects of personal data give such consent without reading the procedure for personal data processing or the privacy policy. The probability that the personal database will be deleted after the termination of the legal relationship by the owner or manager is quite small. Due to inappropriate protection and control personal database are constant objects of leaks and thefts, which turn to other crimes, especially on the Internet.
The article pays special attention to the research about the collection of personal data on the websites of Ukrainian political parties, because such personal data are sensitive and their processing should be carried out especially carefully. The leakage of personal data supporters of a certain political force may pose a physical danger to them in martial law conditions.
The author concludes it is necessary to bring the national legislation on protection of personal data to the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation and to strengthen the control over its compliance by increasing responsibility for violations of the legislation on the protection of personal data.

Authors: Masjhoer Jussac Maulana , Vitrianto Primantoro Nur
Published: June 2024

The key to achieving an effective and sustainable geopark waste management system is fostering community participation. This research about the Gunung Sewu Geopark, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, examines the phases and levels of community participation in waste reduction. The study involved surveying 1,757 respondents aged 18 and above using door-to-door questionnaires, which were analysed using the conditional probability method to determine participation stages and levels. The results indicate that community participation in waste reduction activities, such as composting and recycling is inadequate, with only 21.12% of respondents participating in the decision-making stage, 1.99% participating in the implementation stage, and 0.68% finding waste reduction activities valuable. Rural community participation level scores were 0.68 and categorised as very low. The incomplete stages of participation and low levels of participation are significant challenges for implementing sustainable waste management and maintaining conservation principles in Gunung Sewu Geopark. Further research could be conducted to determine the driving factors that most influence rural community participation so that geopark policymakers can develop strategies to increase participation more effectively and to targets.

Published: June 2024

In Nigeria, before the removal of subsidy on kerosene in 2016, the product was accessible to low-income individuals and is intended to be used as a fuel for cooking, lighting, or heating. Recently, kerosene is rapidly vanishing from rural families and it is becoming inaccessible due to its ever-rising cost. Therefore, to ease the hardship of low-income individuals to have access to high thermal efficiency cookers with affordable fuel, a study was carried out to determine the thermal efficiency and fuel consumption rate of a pressure cooker fueled with a blend of waste vegetable oil and kerosene. Based on this, a low-cost pressure cooker was developed with locally available materials to aid the atomization of fuel during cooking. Along with this, vegetable oil was blended with kerosene to enhance the quantity of kerosene used to fuel the pressure cooker. This cooker fueled with blends of vegetable oil and kerosene was analyzed for its thermal efficiency and fuel consumption rate and was also compared to the conventional kerosene stove. The result shows that the constructed pressure cooker has a thermal efficiency of 52% which is 20% more than the conventional kerosene stove but the developed pressure cooker consumes more fuel (48.62 ml) than the conventional kerosene wick stove (33.78 ml). Though the pressure cooker consumes more fuel, the thermal efficiency per time with respect to the fuel consumed is much better than conventional kerosene stoves which makes the developed cooker cheaper and more affordable both to low-income earners and for rural dwellers.

Authors: Bulut Mutlu , Filik Gökhan
Published: June 2024

Innovative farming techniques are essential for food security and sustainable farming practices. Innovative agricultural approaches utilize modern technologies and the latest inventions, as well as traditional agricultural practices. The main purpose of this study is to address the relationship between sustainable agriculture and bioeconomy and to examine innovative approaches that are expected to have a significant impact on the agricultural sector in the near future. The study was carried out in compilation format. Bioeconomy is an economic model or methodology based on the economic evaluation of biological resources and processes. Abiotic resources such as microbes, vegetation, animals, and biodiversity are all included in this strategy. On the other hand, sustainable agriculture, which aims to protect natural resources and take into account ecosystem benefits while maintaining food production, is an agricultural paradigm. The primary goals of bioeconomy and sustainable agriculture are economic evaluation, efficient use of natural resources and reduction of environmental impacts. Considered from these perspectives, it can be said that both concepts have common purposes and are closely related. It is possible to say that with the increasing use of sustainable agricultural methods and bioeconomy, the agricultural sector can move towards a more environmentally friendly, efficiently managed and sustainable structure in the future.

Published: June 2024

Many allelopathic crops are cultivated in agricultural fields, and these plants can influence the growth of other plants in the cultivation environment with their phytotoxic compounds. One of these plants is the faba bean. In this study conducted under the ecological conditions of Sakarya/Arifiye, the allelopathic effects of Eresen-87, Salkim, Bilecik, and Sakarya faba bean genotypes on weeds such as Johnson grass (Sorghum halepense L.), curly dock (Rumex crispus L.), purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.), and wild mustard (Sinapis arvensis L.) were investigated. Weed seeds used in the experiment were collected from agricultural fields in the Sakarya province. Extracts from dried plant parts of faba bean genotypes were prepared and applied to petri dishes containing weed seeds at concentrations of 5% and 10%, with four replications. At the end of the research, it was observed that all faba bean genotypes at all application doses caused a decrease in germination rate (%), root length (cm), and shoot length (cm) parameters in the four weed species tested. The best results were determined as Eresen-87 and Bilecik at 10% concentration. When the activities of fresh and dry extracts of faba bean genotypes was compared, it was determined that dry application had a higher allelopathic effect.

Published: June 2024

The blanket prescription of nitrogen (N) fertilizer often results in irrational fertilization. To address this issue and align the application of nitrogen fertilizers with the crop-specific demand, it is imperative to save nitrogen resources, maximize the uptake and net income, and subside environmental pollution. In this context, a field experiment was carried out in Kumroj, Chitwan, Nepal during 2022 to assess the growth, yield, and profitability of rice production by comparing different precision nitrogen management practices. The study was carried out in a randomized complete block design with seven treatments and three replications. The treatments included decision support tools for nitrogen management such as the Green Seeker (GS), the Soil plant analysis development Development (SPAD) meter, and the Leaf Color Chart (LCC) combined with basal application of nitrogen at 30 kg ha–1 and the Urea briquette Deep Placement (UDP), the Polymer Coated Urea (PCU), and the Recommended Dose of Fertilizers (RDF, 120 kg N ha–1). The growth, yield, yield attributes, and financial data were taken. Precision nitrogen management techniques significantly enhanced rice growth and yield parameters. GS–guided application required the highest nitrogen demand (155 kg ha–1), while SPAD (80 kg ha–1) and UDP (78 kg ha–1) resulted in lower usage. PCU and UDP enhanced plant height, leaf area index, and above–ground dry matter. Higher grain yield (6.64 t ha–1) was attained with LCC, SPAD (6.44 t ha–1), and UDP (6.41 t ha–1) treatments. GS application exhibited the highest straw yield (11.17 t ha–1), while LCC demonstrated the highest benefit–cost ratio (1.96). This study concluded that SPAD and UDP demonstrated the potential to save nitrogen resources, while LCC and UDP were found profitable.

Authors: Tekiner İsmail Hakkı
Published: June 2024

This study investigated the effects of different processing techniques and sol-gel coating on the physical properties of biocomposite material. Two dispersion series from corn starch, clay, and sorbitol were prepared by conventional and microwave-assisted processing, and casting technique. One film from each series was sol-gel coated by immersion. All the samples were subjected to moisture content (MC), water solubility (WS), water absorption (WA), FT-IR, DSC, and SEM/digital microscopy tests. The results showed that the coated films contained higher MC (11.5±0.5%) than the non-coated films (5.3±0.6%) and absorbed less water (44.7±12.4%), compared to the non-coated ones (166.3±2.5%). Non-coated films exhibited less solubility in water (26.1±0.2%) than the coated ones (51.0±0.7%). FT-IR test detected cross-linking (1723 cm-1 ester) in the microwave-assisted coated film. The sol-gel coating increased the latent heat of melting and specific heat values by 14.9% and 19.4% for conventionally fabricated samples, and 22.3% and 25.3% for microwaved films, respectively, whereas it reduced the temperature of melting by 23.1% for conventionally fabricated ones, and 6.6% for microwaved ones. Microscopic tests revealed that microwaved compact morphology indicated better gelatinization of starch. Overall, microwaving and sol-gel coating need further investigation to improve the physical properties of biocomposite materials for food packaging.
Can Biochar Made from Rice Husk Affect Savanna Soils’ pH, Electrical Conductivity, and Soil Respiration?
Authors: Abukari Ammal , Cobbinah Prince
Published: June 2024

Biochar is now gaining awareness as a sustainable tool for soil health improvement, boosting carbon (C) storage and the enhancement of nutrient cycling in agricultural soils. This study assesses the effects of biochar on soil respiration, pH, and electrical conductivity (EC) in savanna soils over a 45-day incubation trail in the laboratory. Four different biochar treatments (0, 2, 4, and 6 t/ha) were used in the study. The treatments were established at 26°C, and after 2, 5, and 10 days, the CO2 levels were recorded. After incubation for 0, 5, 10, and 45 days, the EC and pH were assessed. As the rate of application of biochar increased, the rate of CO2 evolution increased as well. During the first two days of incubation, the CO2 evolution rate rose by a value of 129 at 2 t/ha biochar, 146 at 4 t/ha biochar, and 168 ug CO2/g soil/d at 6 t/ha biochar above the 0 t/ha biochar. Following five days of incubation, the amounts of CO2 evolution that were higher than the control were 99 with 2 t/ha, 116 with 4 t/ha, and 120 ug CO2/g soil/d with 6 t/ha of biochar. The increase in CO2 evolution above the control treatment at 10 days of incubation was 61 with 2 t/ha, 79 with 4 t/ha, and 87 ug CO2/g soil/d with 6 t/ha of biochar. Analogously, rising patterns in CO2 emissions were noted. Throughout the whole incubation period, the biochar treatments' soil EC and pH were greater than those of the control treatment. After applying biochar, there were increases in the evolution of CO2, however after 10 days of incubation, the percentage of C evolved from the addition of biochar decreased as the rates of biochar increased. At two t/ha, four t/ha, and six t/ha, the percentage C developed was 1.74 %, 1.66%, and 0.82% of the applied biochar C, respectively. Although the CO2 evolved ratio to the total amount of biochar C typically reduced with increasing biochar rates, this study shows that the addition of biochar increases soil respiration, EC, and pH.

Authors: Erdaw Mammo Mengesha , Guteta Alemayehu
Published: June 2024

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of partially replacing the commercial soybean meal (SBM) with a home-treated, locally produced raw-full fat soybean (RFFSB) in the diets of broilers. A 3×2×2+1 factorial arrangement was used to conduct this feeding trial. A test ingredient (RFFSB) was differently soaked (0, 6 or 12 hrs), drained, boiled (25 or 35 min) and sundried. Following this, it was hammered to pass through a 0.2-mm sieve, then 12 experimental diets were formulated, replacing the SBM by such a home-treated-RFFSB at 50 or 75%. The control diet didn’t contain any RFFSBN. Totally 13 experimental diets were prepared and every treatment was replicated 3 times and 10 chicks per replicate. The results revealed that replacing the commercial SBM by a treated RFFSB had no significant interaction effects on any measured parameter. However, soaking and then boiling it (RFFSB) had significant (P<0.05) interaction effect on the BWTG (1-13d and 14-28d). When increasing the soaking time, the FI (feed intake), BWTG (body weight gain) and feed efficiency were significantly (P<0.05) decreased. When increasing the boiling duration, both FI and feed efficiency (14-28d) were improved. But, when increasing the replacement rate of RFFSB, the feed efficiency was deteriorated. Broilers fed on both control and diets, containing a non-soaked RFFSB had higher (P<0.05) BWTG (1-13d). Birds fed on diets containing RFFSB that was soaked for the longest period (12 hrs) had significantly lower BWTG. Birds fed on diets, containing prolonged boiling duration had significantly (P<0.05) higher BWTG and feed efficiency. There was no interaction (P> 0.05) effect on both carcass yield and cut-products. Neither increasing a boiling time nor a replacement rate had (P<0.05) any influence on the WT (weight) of the carcass. Birds on both control and on non-soaked RFFSB diets had better WT of carcass products. There was no interaction (P>0.05) effect on organ developments. However, increasing the soaking-duration significantly (P<0.05) reduced the organ developments. Therefore, it is concluded that commercial SBM can be replaced by a non-soaked, but boiled raw soybean in diets of broilers.

Ficciones narrativas sobre la identidad de América Latina en: El caballero de El Dorado y Cosas del pueblo. Una novela histórica y una crónica literaria de Germán Arciniegas
Authors: Valencia Echavarría Blanca Miriam
Published: June 2024

Es un acercamiento a dos obras de Germán Arciniegas, El caballero de El Dorado y Cosas del pueblo: crónica de la historia vulgar, que analiza la importancia de los recursos empleados por el autor para que las figuras sin nombre, sin voz, invisibles en las historias oficiales pudieran emerger y que la cosmovisión de esos personajes, quehaceres, modos de vivir, formas de pensar, luchas y derrotas fueran recuperados, desde lo que puede denominarse una poética de la microhistoria, para darles vida y escucharlos. De igual forma, se hace un análisis de cómo el proyecto de violencia civilizatoria fue el precio pagado para que América ingresara al proceso de la modernidad, pero desde la periferia, lugar asignado por el eurocentrismo, y cómo en la dicotomía civilización/barbarie, términos como descubridores, conquistadores, evangelizadores, se corresponden con conceptos que han representado histórica y culturalmente negación de la otredad americana, violencia y exclusión.
Comparative effects of self-evaluated and test-based financial literacy on choosing life insurance policies in a multi-racial context
Authors: Florent Nkouaga
Published: June 2024

This study investigates the relationship between financial literacy and the choice of life insurance policies in the multi-racial context of the United States. Both subjective and objective measures of financial literacy are considered important factors in shaping consumer behavior in the life insurance market. Methods: Logistic regression analyses were conducted using data from the 2022 Survey of Consumer Finance to explore how financial literacy is related to the ownership of different types of life insurance, including term insurance, cash value insurance, and a combination of both. The analysis controlled for demographic variables such as age, race, and marital status. Results: The results show that subjective financial literacy significantly influences the ownership of all types of life insurance, while objective financial literacy only affects ownership of term insurance. Demographic factors, such as belonging to Generation X, or being married, also have a positive impact on life insurance ownership. Higher levels of education and income are associated with a higher likelihood of owning life insurance, while unemployment has a negative impact. Conclusion: The findings highlight the central role of subjective financial literacy in motivating individuals to purchase life insurance. Confidence in one's financial knowledge appears to be more influential than actual knowledge when making insurance decisions. Therefore, financial education programs should aim to improve both financial knowledge and confidence to encourage wider adoption of life insurance, ensuring greater financial security for diverse populations.

To satisfy the needs of a growing population as well as changing dietary habits, the food industry is looking for alternative sources of protein that are sustainable and better for the environment than those of animal origin. Plant protein sources are therefore very promising. However, some of them do not have all the essential amino acids and are therefore considered as low quality protein sources. Nevertheless, mushrooms are plants that generally have a complete profile of essential amino acids. For this reason, edible mushrooms are an interesting protein source for the food industry, which can use them to create high-quality protein-enriched food products. This review will therefore discuss the use of mushrooms as sustainable functional foonds are more specifically as an alternative protein source in protein bars.
IN SILICO INHIBITION OF UREASE AND CagA ENZYMES AS TARGETS AGAINST HELICOBACTER PYLORI: AN OVERVIEW ON CAPES 2022 DATABASE
Authors: Wanzeler Heracles Pereira , Santos Ana Gabrielly Costa dos
Published: June 2024

The proliferation, adaptive capability, and action of the Helicobacter pylori bacterium in the human stomach make it a worldwide public health issue. This bacterium is associated with gastrointestinal diseases such as stomach cancer. Adding to this challenge is the emergence of multi-drug-resistant and pan-drug-resistant pathogens among gram-negative bacteria, a category to which Helicobacter pylori belongs, making the elimination of this microorganism a daunting task. Therefore, there is an urgent need for the development of new treatment strategies to address this issue, and one potential way is the in silico method, specifically Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD), which suggests new starting points in the search for innovative therapies and can be combined with traditional research methods (in vitro, in vivo, and ex-vivo). In this context, this review, utilizing data from the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) database, provides an overview of the various proposals discussed in 2022 that focus on the inhibition of proteins favorable to the colonization, virulence, and pathogenicity of H. pylori using in silico methods. Thus, several articles were inspected in the CAPES database. With a focus on molecular docking and/or molecular dynamics, pharmacokinetics, drug-like characteristics, and toxicity, 15 articles were identified that indicated the most studied enzymes in 2022 were urease and CagA. Furthermore, it was observed that the nature of the compounds used in inhibition was diverse - essential oils, flavonoids, pyrazolines, benzimidazoles, tetrahydropyrimidines, and benzothiazoles. All of these compounds were found to have the potential to be anti-urease and/or anti-CagA agents.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is one of the most versatile semiconductor materials with many potential applications. Understanding the interactions between the surface chemistry of ZnO along with its physico-chemical properties are essential for the development of ZnO as a robust photocatalyst for the removal of aqueous pollutants. We report on the fabrication of nanoparticle-like porous ZnO films and the correlation between the fabrication process parameters, particle size, surface oxygen vacancies (SOV), photoluminescence and photocatalytic performance. The synthesis route is unique, as highly porous zinc layers with nanoscale grains were first grown via magnetron sputtering, a vacuum-based technique, and subsequently annealed at temperatures of 400 \degree C, 600 \degree C and 800 \degree C in oxygen flow to oxidise them to zinc oxide (ZnO) while maintaining their porosity. Our results show that as the annealing temperature increases, nanoparticle agglomeration increases, and thus there is a decrease in the active sites for the photocatalytic reaction. However, for selected samples the annealing leads to an increase of the photocatalytic efficiency, which we explain based on the analysis of defects in the material, based on photoluminescence (PL). PL analysis showed that in the material the transition between the conduction band and the oxygen vacancy is responsible for the green emission centered at 525 nm, but the photocatalytic activity correlated best with surface states - related emission.
Increasing Pay Related Social Insurance to fund the State Pension: Incidence and effectiveness
Authors:   ESRI, Doorley Karina , Tuda Dora ,   ESRI
Published: June 2024

Demographic change is putting pressure on the sustainability of State Pension systems in many developed countries. In Ireland, there have been recent calls to reform the system of contributions and/or increase the State Pension age in order to avoid significant shortfalls in the Social Insurance Fund (SIF), out of which the State Pension is paid. The Government of Ireland has committed to retaining the State Pension age at 66. In order to achieve this and maintain the viability of the SIF, it has also committed to increasing social security contributions through the Roadmap of Increases to Pay Related Social Insurance (PRSI), which will occur between 2024 and 2028. Using SWITCH, the ESRI’s microsimulation model for Ireland, this paper assesses the consequences of these planned reforms, focussing on the amount of revenue they will raise, on the distribution of income and on financial incentives to work. Our analysis shows that the reforms proposed by the Roadmap will result in revenue gains of €1.6 billion per annum by 2028. The reforms are progressive in nature, affecting high income households by more than low-income households. They affect men by slightly more than women due to their higher labour market participation. Across age-cohorts, the incomes of those aged 25-54 are estimated decrease the most. We estimate that the reforms will increase poverty rates slightly, particularly the child poverty rate. The proposed reforms slightly decrease the financial incentive to work, particularly for those in low-income households. We argue that further reform will be needed beyond 2028 to ensure the continued viability of the SIF, and suggest that policymakers may wish to consider some of the more structural reforms to PRSI and the SIF proposed by the Commission on Taxation and Welfare, the Commission on Pensions and the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council.
State Contributory Pension reform: Winners and losers. Evidence from the Irish Longitudinal Study of Ageing

The Yearly Average Method used in calculating State Contributory Pension entitlements has been criticised for creating anomalies, particularly for women. It has been announced that from 2034 onwards, entitlements will be based fully on the new Total Contributions Approach. This paper examines the impact of this move, examining who will gain or lose from this change. Overall, we find little change in the average weekly pension rate with a slight fall for men and no change for women. These average changes mask gains and losses for some; around 14 per cent of women and 12 per cent of men will face a loss under the Total Contributions Approach while 5 per cent of men and 30 per cent of women will see a gain. More women will qualify for the maximum pension rate under the Total Contributions Approach due to the removal of anomalies associated with the Yearly Average Method. On average, losses are very small, less than 1 per cent of pension income, but will be largest at the bottom end of the income distribution.
BEAUVOIR INTÉRPRETE DE MERLEAU-PONTY
Authors: Da Motta Lucas Joaquim
Published: June 2024

Este trabalho se dedica a analisar como Simone de Beauvoir interpretou o ensaio intitulado a Fenomenologia da percepção de Maurice Merleau-Ponty. Para tanto, iremos nos basear, sobretudo, na resenha que a própria filósofa escreveu acerca da obra merleau-pontyana, em 1945 para a revista Les Temps Modernes [Os Tempos Modernos]. Assim, consideremos dois momentos da resenha de Beauvoir que julgamos ser fundamentais para compreender como a autora analisou uma fenomenologia da percepção em Merleau-Ponty, a saber: 1) os principais conceitos fenomenológicos que ela cita, como as noções de corpo e mundo; 2) e como tais noções se correlacionam conforme o método fenomenológico reveste as várias faces - no sentido ontológico da palavra - da existência.
Asphalt Mix Compressive Stress-Strain Behavior: An Analytical and Experimental Study of Variable Influence

Published: June 2024

To address the excessive depletion of natural resources in Indonesia's civil construction sector, there's a rising trend in utilizing plastic waste from packaging, such as beverage bottles and plastic bags, alongside renewable energy sources like Modified Buton Asphalt (MBA). MBA serves as a partial substitute for both fine and coarse natural aggregates and non-renewable energy sources like petroleum bitumen. This study aimed to investigate the effects of incorporating polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polypropylene (PP) waste as partial substitutes for coarse and fine aggregates through experiments and t-tests. The objective was to determine how the stress-strain behavior of asphalt mixtures formed using MBA changed with the addition of this mixture. Additionally, compressive strength and elastic modulus were calculated under mixed compressive loads. PET and PP plastic waste replaced natural coarse and fine aggregates at three volume percentages: 1%, 2%, and 3%, with a PET:PP ratio of 50%. A manual grater was used to shred PET and PP plastic bottles into shredded plastic waste, which was retained in sieve no. 50 after sieving. The study found that adding PET, PP plastic, and MBA waste enhanced the asphalt mixture's mechanical strength and modified relevant variables, resulting in a more elastic and ductile behavior. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-05-011 Full Text: PDF
Research into Uranium Characteristics and Content in a Pregnant Solution During Leaching with Oxygen Saturation

The aim of this study is to intensify the process of in situ leaching of uranium with saturation of the working solution with oxygen using a Venturi tube. One of the ways to increase the efficiency of underground leaching is to saturate the leaching solution with oxygen. However, this oxidizer has not found application due to the complexity and high cost of oxygen saturation in the solution. The results of the study showed that saturation of the leaching solution with oxygen using a Venturi tube leads to a decrease in the concentration of divalent iron and an increase in the concentration of trivalent iron. Thus, this leads to an increase in the average uranium content in the pregnant solution by 21.3% compared with the technology being used. The dependence of changes in the concentration of trivalent iron and the uranium content in the pregnant solution on the leaching time was obtained when the solution was saturated with oxygen. The application of the proposed technology of oxygen saturation in the solution will increase the uranium content in the pregnant solution and thereby shorten the time required to mine uranium reserves in the technological block. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2024-010-05-016 Full Text: PDF
