Published: December 2021

Solvated electrons are among the most reductive species in aqueous environment. Diamond materials have been proposed as a promising source for solvated electrons, but the underlying emission process in water remains elusive so far. Here, we show spectroscopic evidence for the emission of solvated electrons from nanodiamonds upon excitation with both deep ultraviolet (255 nm) and visible (400 nm) light using ultrafast transient absorption. The crucial role of surface termination for the emission process is evidenced by comparing hydrogenated, hydroxylated and carboxylated nanodiamonds. Especially, hydrogenated nanodiamonds are able to generate solvated electron upon visible light excitation, while they show a sub-ps recombination due to trap states when excited with deep ultraviolet light. The essential role of surface reconstructions on the nanodiamonds in these processes is proposed based on density functional theory calculations. These results open new perspectives for solar-driven emission of solvated electrons in aqueous phase using nanodiamonds.
Physics-based neural networks for simulation and synthesis of cyclic adsorption processes
Authors: Subraveti Sai Gokul , Li Zukui , Prasad Vinay , Rajendran Arvind
Published: December 2021

A computationally faster and reliable modelling approach called a physics-based artificial neural network framework for adsorption and chromatography emulation (PANACHE) is developed. PANACHE uses deep neural networks for cycle synthesis and simulation of cyclic adsorption processes. The proposed approach focuses on learning the underlying governing partial differential equations in the form of a physics-constrained loss function to simulate adsorption processes accurately. The methodology developed herein does not require any system-specific inputs such as isotherm parameters. Accordingly, unique neural network models were built to fully predict the column dynamics of different constituent steps based on unique boundary conditions that are typically encountered in adsorption processes. The trained neural network model for each constituent step aims to predict the entire spatiotemporal solutions of different state variables by obeying the underlying physical laws. The proposed approach is tested by constructing and simulating four different vacuum swing adsorption cycles for post-combustion CO2 capture without retraining the neural network models. For each cycle, 50 simulations, each corresponding to a unique set of operating conditions, are carried out until the cyclic-steady state. The results demonstrated that the purity and recovery calculated from the neural network-based simulations are within 2.5% of the detailed model's predictions. PANACHE reduced computational times by 100 times while maintaining similar accuracy of the detailed model simulations.
A Nonaqueous Redox-Matched Flow Battery with Charge Storage in Insoluble Polymer Beads
Authors: Kim Dukhan , Sanford Melanie , Vaid Thomas , McNeil Anne
Published: December 2021

We describe the nonaqueous redox-matched flow battery (RMFB), where charge is stored on redox-active moieties covalently tethered to non-circulating, insoluble polymer beads and charge is transferred between the electrodes and the beads via soluble mediators with redox potentials matched to the active moieties on the beads. The RMFB reported herein uses ferrocene and viologen derivatives bound to crosslinked polystyrene beads. Charge storage in the beads leads to a high (approximately 1.0-1.7 M) effective concentration of active material in the reservoirs while preventing crossover of that material. The relatively low concentration of soluble mediators (15 mM) eliminates the need for high-solubility molecules to create high energy density batteries. Nernstian redox exchange between the beads and redox-matched mediators was fast relative to the cycle time of the RMFB. This approach is generalizable to many different redox-active moieties via attachment to the versatile Merrifield resin.

La tendencia plural ecomunitarista, indispensable guía para un nuevo sentido histórico, comparte la definición de democracia de A. Lincoln: “gobierno del pueblo, por el pueblo y para el pueblo”, donde las vivencias interculturales constituyan el terreno fértil para intercambiar el Buen Vivir, regulada por una Educación Ambiental como proceso de concientización compuesto por el “develamiento crítico de las opresiones y devastaciones que vivimos-presenciamos y la acción transformadora-superadora de las mismas”. En efecto, una de las finalidades es transformar la sociedad en sentido ecomunitarista en todos los niveles, desde el local al planetario, preparando el cambio cualitativo que abrirá las puertas de la transición a gran escala para reemplazar el capitalismo por una convivencia digna, decente, valórica, estética, ética, práctica, científica y participada. Esta educación excluye al machismo y la homofobia, e incluye el respeto a la salud y la educación sexual desde la pubertad hasta la edad adulta.

Authors: Adnan Muhammad , Zarrar Samia , Zafar Kamran
Published: December 2021

Purpose: Using data from 200 hotel guests in Multan, Pakistan, this research aims to evaluate the influence of service quality and pricing fairness on consumer loyalty while moderating the role of information literacy.

Design/Methodology/Approach/Findings: The findings are estimated using partial least square (PLS). The variables service quality, pricing justice, and information literacy are all positively and substantially connected to customer loyalty, according to PLS estimations. Because the link between service quality and customer loyalty is statistically significant, the results of the moderated regression demonstrate that information literacy positively moderates it. On the other hand, while the link between price fairness and customer loyalty is statistically significant, the variable information literacy acts as a negative moderator.

Implications/Originality/Value:  Hotel management are advised to invest in and increase the quality of service. Managers must maintain control of all activities related to the concept of quality from the bottom to the top of their business.

Authors: Narozhnykh K. N.
Published: December 2021

The problem of food contamination by heavy metals due to their accumulation in biosystems as a result of anthropogenic inﬂuences has been studied. The results of cadmium, lead, iron and manganese in cattle from the Novosibirsk Region and the Altai Territory are presented. The purpose of the study was to assess the impact of the ecological and geographical factor on the heavy metal content in the lungs of Hereford bulls. Lung samples were taken from 31 clinically healthy Hereford bulls aged 16-18 months. Sample preparation was carried out in accordance with GOST 26929-94 and 30178-96. The chemical composition of the samples was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry with ﬂame and electrothermal atomization. The median values of the content of cadmium, lead, iron and manganese in the lungs of bull-calf were in the range of 0,01-0,12; 0,07-0,11; 70,9-89,1 and 0,3-0,4 mg/kg. The phenotypic variability of the level of iron and manganese was relatively low, while that of lead and cadmium was high. The dispersions of lead and cadmium levels in the animal groups studied were homogeneous, manganese and iron variants were heterogeneous. The inﬂuence of the ecological and geographical factor is characteristic only for cadmium levels. For manganese, iron, lead and cadmium the calculated reference ranges are: 0-1.12; 0-148.1 and 0-0.170 mg/kg respectively. They can serve as a guideline for Hereford cattle bred in the territories of Krasnozersky, Novosibirsky and Maslyaninsky districts of the Novosibirsk region and the Tselinny district of the Altai Territory.

This study aims to determine the comparison of the English learning outcomes between the students who taught by Blended Learning model and Discovery Learning model. Moreover, this study also aims to reveal which model is more effective in enhancing the students’ English language learning outcomes. This experimental research involved two experimental classes in which the first experimental class taught using the Blended Learning model with the help of WhatsApp software (online class), while in the second experimental class taught using Discovery Learning model with the help of Power Point software (offline class). The sample who are involved in this study was 30 students. The data collected using writing test. The results showed that the students learning outcomes were increased in both the experimental 1 and 2. However, the mean score of the students who taught using Discovery learning is higher than the mean score of the students who taught using Blended Learning. Thus, it can be concluded that H1 was accepted and H0 was rejected. Further, the applying of Discovery Learning assisted by PowerPoint software is more effective than using Blended Learning model assisted by WhatsApp. The application of the Power Point-assisted Discovery Learning enables the students more focus as they take responsibility in learning, then it allows the students to learn pacely.
Mètodes naturalistes de la sociologia de la creativitat: Contra el reduccionisme
Authors: Muntanyola Dafne
Published: December 2021

En el context canviant dels consensos bàsics que constitueixen la cultura legítima i les definicions de creativitat, la sociologia dela cultura hi juga un paper important. Nombrosos estudis en ciències socials i cognitives ho demostren empíricament (Bourdieu,1979; Becker, 1982; 2002; Sennett, 2012; Muntanyola-Saura, 2012; 2014; 2016). La creativitat com a forma de cognició socialforma part d'un context institucional. No obstant això, la influent branca culturalista de la sociologia cognitiva (CCS) redueix lacreativitat a un nivell psicològic cognitivista (Lizardo i Strand, 2010). Partim aquí de la conjectura que és possible per a la sociologiade la cultura aprofitar el paradigma naturalista de la cognició per explicar la creativitat sense caure en postures reduccionistesni atomistes. Per tant, el cos de l'article és una revisió bibliogràfica que sense tenir la ambició de ser exhaustiva sí que ofereixuna mirada completa sobre uns models pragmàtics i integrats de creativitat. Es té en compte la diversitat de propostes teòricoempíriques que existeixen, per tal d'identificar els postulats de partida dels autors que centralitzen el debat tant a nivell macrocom a nivell micro. Els estudis analitzats presenten processos intersubjectius de creació i transmissió de criteris més o menyslegítims de consum cultural, com ara categoritzacions, avaluacions i judicis estètics. La conclusió és que la perspectiva sociològicapot reforçar críticament la creativitat

Published: December 2021

No número três da revista Química Nova na Escola (QNEsc), publicado em maio de 1996 (o número 1 foi publicado em maio de 1995 e o número 2, em novembro de 1995), o artigo de abertura, de apenas uma página, foi “Sobre prováveis modelos de átomos”. Na época, a revista rompia algo que então era usual: publicar o segundo ou terceiro número de uma revista. Há 25 anos não se tinha os contadores como Google Acadêmico, mas se pode referir que, quando a QNEsc conseguia chegar aos professores da Educação Básica, o texto era considerado muito importante. Agora, pretende-se revistá-lo. Um quarto de século depois, a ciência continua encontrando mistérios ao explorar os modelos e átomos que conhecemos. Junto a isso, descobrimos que, em meio a uma pandemia que atingiu a humanidade, precisamos ser cada vez mais indisciplinares para alfabetizar cientificamente. Assim, o objetivo principal desse artigo é realizar discussões acerca da alfabetização científica e da formação de professores que atuam na área de Ciências da Natureza, a partir de uma reflexão crítica do artigo supramencionado.

Authors: Bego Amadeu Moura , Ferrari Tarso Bortolucci , Pereira Júnior Victor M.
Published: December 2021

A partir de um estudo cienciométrico, este artigo objetiva descrever os cenários das publicações sobre formação de professores (FP) com foco na equidade educacional (EE); analisar suas perspectivas teóricas e relações com a FP, no geral, e de química, em específico; e apontar as tendências, as propensões teórico-metodológicas, lacunas e desafios futuros sobre o tema. Apesar da escassez de trabalhos que envolvem EE na FP de química, identificou-se relações entre equidade, multiculturalismo e diversidade. A literatura revisada aponta duas dimensões como importantes princípios norteadores da EE: competência cultural e consciência sociopolítica; e práticas consistentes de ensino e aprendizagem. Essas duas dimensões são discutidas detalhadamente neste artigo.

El Control como Alternativa ante la Corrupción. ¿Será una Opción de la Economía Actual en el Ecuador?
Authors: Rizzo-Guambaña Gabriel Ernesto , Camacho-Estrada Eugenia Floripez
Published: December 2021

Una de las funciones de la Contraloría General del Estado, según el artículo 212 de Constitución de la República del Ecuador, es la determinación de responsabilidades administrativas, civiles culposos e inclusive la de responsabilidad penal, relacionadas con los aspectos de gestiones sujetas a control. Sin embargo, a partir del 2015 se resta esta atribución a través de un simple decreto presidencial, limitando a este organismo de control la realización de auditorías de gestión. El presidente Correa quien fungía ese cargo en el 2015 consideró que este decreto constituye la mejor forma de evitar la corrupción, ya que se obliga a las instituciones públicas a rendir cuentas en forma anual. El presente trabajo versa sobre la importancia que tiene la auditoría de gestión, como herramienta fundamental para controlar la eficiencia y efectividad que cualquier empresa pública o privada debe aplicar para medir el logro de sus objetivos. Adicionalmente, constituye un elemento importantísimo para la toma de decisiones y la reprogramación de la planificación de su misión y visión a corto plazo. Para el desarrollo nos centramos más en el campo gubernamental, ya que existe mayor literatura al respecto. El estudio se fundamentó en una investigación analítica de base documental. Utilizamos como método de investigación el inductivo, analítico y de síntesis, motivo por el cual llegamos a la conclusión de que la auditoría de gestión no debió eliminarse de las responsabilidades que mantenía la Contraloría General del Estado, en el período examinado.

La mujer actual ha logrado un alto reconocimiento en el campo científico por sus aportes e investigaciones; sin embargo, cabe destacar que no siempre fue así, pues las ideologías antiguas sembraron la idea de que las mujeres no podían aportar de manera trascendente al desarrollo de la ciencia. Este trabajo se realizó con el objetivo de determinar el grado de participación femenina en la escritura de artículos científicos. Para ello, se desarrolló un análisis sobre la evolución de la producción científica de las y los docentes universitarios. Se comparó los aportes de los autores y las autoras de artículos científicos correspondientes a tres áreas primordiales: Ciencias de la Vida y Salud, Ciencias Exactas y Ciencias Sociales en los períodos comprendidos entre el 2014-2018 y 2016-2018. Los datos se tomaron del Portal de Revistas de la Universidad Central del Ecuador (UCE), hasta el primer semestre de 2019. El trabajo se realizó en la ciudad de Quito, provincia de Pichincha y se aplicó la metodología de tipo cuantitativo: se efectuó conteo de datos, los que se utilizaron en el análisis estadístico para establecer las diferencias de autores y autoras. Como resultados destacados se encontró que la mayor cantidad de artículos se produjo en 2017, tanto interna como externa, con el 58.3 % correspondiente a los autores y 41.6 % perteneciente a las autoras lo que hace notar un 16.7 % de diferencia en la escritura científica distribuida en cada una de las áreas definidas.

Esta investigación estuvo orientada hacia el estudio de mercado del sector ganadero. El objetivo principal fue analizar la dinámica del mercado agropecuario en la provincia de El Oro (Ecuador) por medio del caso de la Asociación de Ganaderos 24 de mayo. Se indagó en fuentes de investigación científica utilizando el método descriptivo no experimental para estudiar las variables de mercado del sector. Además, se aplicó una encuesta a 159 personas de la localidad. Respecto a los resultados, se comprobó que los productos ganaderos tienen alta demanda entre los consumidores, especialmente de las mujeres. Asimismo, se pudo observar que al ser productos de primera necesidad requieren de un incremento en su producción. En conclusión, con base en una proyección entre los datos de la asociación y la población, se constató que la demanda de los clientes está insatisfecha. Esta situación se podrá minimizar si los productores implementan nuevos métodos para manufacturar los productos derivados del ganado, lo cual reportará múltiples beneficios.

Una adecuada identificación y cuantificación de costos ocultos de la gestión de recursos humanos contribuye a aumentar la efectividad en la gestión empresarial. Actualmente, en muchas empresas no se reflejan los costos ocultos en sus balances económicos, ni en sus registros financieros. El objetivo es analizar los resultados de la aplicación de un modelo de gestión de costos ocultos para la mejora continua de los recursos humanos en el sector hotelero. Se ha tomado en cuenta en todo momento las expectativas y necesidades de los clientes y se ha integrado los elementos sociales y económicos de la gestión socioeconómica para contribuir al desarrollo de la calidad del servicio en el sector hotelero. Se han utilizado diferentes técnicas y herramientas, tales como la lista de chequeo, el cuadro de mando integral, el modelo SERVQUAL y un estudio empírico del cual se hizo un análisis factorial como método de reducción de datos, para obtener las correlaciones entre más de las 57 variables observables. Este estudio permitirá alcanzar niveles superiores en el desempeño laboral, además de un incremento en la productividad del trabajo y calidad del servicio.

Authors: Manciati-Alarcón Roberto Xavier
Published: December 2021

El desarrollo de la pandemia causada por la covid-19 a nivel global ha obligado a introducir nuevos enfoques en el manejo de los procesos organizacionales, lo cual ha transformado empresas, gobiernos e incluso la vida cotidiana, con consecuencias sin precedentes en Ecuador y el mundo. En el ámbito laboral se presentó una crisis de sostenibilidad, donde muchas empresas optaron por reducir el número de empleados o por disminuir la carga de trabajo, con la consecuente reducción salarial. Si bien estos cambios suponen nuevas opciones laborales, productivas y comerciales, también surgen necesidades apremiantes producto de las reestructuraciones de cada sistema empresarial.
Los derechos de los niños según la constitución de 1917, y sus reformas, en la cotidianidad de la Familia
Authors: Topete Macías María Teresa
Published: December 2021

Los Derechos Humanos son una protección para todo ser que sea persona. En México, la Constitución inscribe artículos exprofeso para procurar bienestar a los Niños mexicanos. Tales decretos han sido reformados en el devenir de los años a partir de 1917 a los vigentes, a través de propuestas promulgadas en los Diarios Oficiales de la Nación. El interés de este artículo se supedita a reflexionar si esas leyes de defensa sobre los cuidados de los niños se llevan a cabo como la ley lo estipula, y de no cumplirse en el seno de la familia que se nace, determinar si se incurre en violencia familiar por el hecho de no atenderlos como el deber exige, al no cumplir con los derechos que el niño adquiere por el hecho de nacer, ya que el niño no pidió la vida, y los padres al concebirlo adquieren obligatorias responsabilidades. El niño tiene derechos, y los padres el deber de cuidarlo bajo la obligación de cubrir sus necesidades de bienestar.

Authors: Villanueva Mendoza Armando
Published: December 2021

El propósito de este trabajo es indicar como la reforma estructural al sistema electoral mexicano se centró en las 32 entidades federativas que componen el país. La Constitución de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos ahora sienta las bases para una justicia electoral local igualitaria. Para ello, delega en la ley general y en las constituciones y leyes locales la facultad de regular los órganos jurisdiccionales encargados de ello. Es por ello, que los congresos de los estados deberán adecuar sus normativas y regular con precisión a los Tribunales Electorales Locales, brindándoles adecuada estructura y los elementos necesarios para desahogar su competencia sin cuestionamientos.
Derecho al Medio Ambiente Sano: Su perspectiva como Derecho Humano Emergente en el caso “Parque Temático Ecológico laguna del Carpintero”
Authors: Ruíz Ruíz Joel Armando
Published: December 2021

Este artículo aborda el derecho humano a un medio ambiente sano que, a pesar de no ser nuevo, por largo tiempo ha sido vulnerado, pero ahora, debido a las graves consecuencias del cambio climático, ha sido retomado por los Derechos Humanos Emergentes para ampliar su cobertura y apremiar su puntual cumplimiento, a fin de encauzar las decisiones y acciones en favor de una auténtica protección al medio ambiente.
Se analiza este derecho de manera conceptual y aplicativa, a fin de demostrar que hay una reinterpretación de este derecho humano, concluyendo que los ciudadanos, basados en un interés legítimo, pueden reclamar su efectivo cumplimiento, como lo fue en el caso del proyecto “Parque Temático Ecológico Laguna del Carpintero” en Tampico, Tamaulipas.
