FACTORS OF USING WASTE AS FUEL IN THERMAL ENERGY SYSTEMSOF PART 1. STUDY OF SHW COMBUSTION PROCESSES
Authors: Kolienko A. , Shelimanova O.
Published: December 2023

The reason for the ambiguous assessment of the feasibility of using boiler systems of centralized heat supply for burning solid household waste (SHW) is the specific composition of SHW and the peculiarities of their combustion process. The experience of waste incineration plants shows the need to use for this purpose special incineration equipment and complex systems for cleaning combustion products.

The purpose of the study is to determine the conditions for the implementation of solid waste incineration systems that would meet the requirements of environmental and economic efficiency.

The article presents the results of experimental studies of the SHW burning process and recommendations for the safe and effective organization of such a process.

The main factors of negative impact on the environment are identified, which are directly related to the organization of the combustion process and the composition of combustion products, in particular, the high content of sulfur and chlorine in solid waste.

The research results confirm that the use of waste as fuel requires specific conditions for the organization of the combustion process, the operation of combustion plants and the arrangement of systems for cleaning combustion products.

It is shown that the composition of solid waste and their combustible characteristics differ significantly from known types of solid and alternative fuels. This leads to the need to reconstruct existing solid fuel heating boilers

The purpose of the article is to diversification of the linguistic and cultural paradigm in the philosophical dimension of modernity. The cultural transformations of irony term reveal the genesis of its’ philosophical content. The classical metaphysics understood irony as methodological strategy of knowledge acquiring, but modern and postmodern modality philosophy underlines its’ human measured content. Non classical interpretation of ironical discourse denies the overpower of logo centrism and rehabilitates the direct human feelings sphere. During the process of total semiotic reformation of culture irony looses the destructive potential, becomes the therapeutically procedure and deep quotation, representing the inter textuality of culture, but denies the possibility to prove ontological authentity or creative originality.

Environment approach in preparing future specialists of preschool education for the development of creative potential of children
Authors: Sliusaruk-Litvin Svitlana , Demchenko Iryna
Published: December 2023

The article is devoted to the topical issue of introducing an environmental approach to the training of future specialists in preschool education in order to form their readiness to develop children's creative potential. The authors argue that the educational opportunities for introducing an environmental approach to the training of future teachers in pedagogical colleges are important, since it increases the effectiveness of professional training in general and the formation of readiness for the development of the creative potential of preschool children, in particular. It has been found that for a pedagogical college the definition of the educational environment is associated with a set of specially organised psychological and pedagogical conditions, as a result of which the individual's personality and worldview are formed in interaction with the individual. The peculiarities of the educational environment of a pedagogical college are characterised and it is defined as a complex systemic phenomenon, numerous elements of which, in particular, a set of material, social, psychological and pedagogical conditions and factors that affect the level of satisfaction of teachers and students with the educational process and indicate various characteristics of professional orientation, purposefulness and effectiveness of the functioning of this institution to maximise the satisfaction of society's demand for highly qualified educators, are able to. It is proved that the formation of future specialists' readiness for the development of children's creative potential should be saturated with conditions that maximally fill the educational process with training courses and permanent pedagogical practices to help future educators successfully design and adjust individual educational routes, increasing their motivation and readiness for practical pedagogical activities in the system of preschool education, including the creative development of preschool children. It has been established that the educational environment of pedagogical colleges in the context of forming students' readiness for the development of preschool children's creative potential should necessarily be of a creative type of modality and be characterised by a certain set of specific properties: observability, saturation, plasticity, autonomy of existence, synchronisation, integrity, motivationality, immersiveness, interactivity.
The nature and structure of the concept «organizational abilities of future legal scholars»: psychological and pedagogical analysis
Authors: Kozytska V. , Sopivnyk Ruslan
Published: December 2023

The article outlines the main provisions regarding the concept of "organizational abilities" as an important condition for the training of future specialists in the legal field; an analytical review of the scientific opinions of well-known researchers on the problem, chosen by us for research, was carried out. In the course of covering the topic of our scientific research, we found out that one of the leading and important components of “organizational abilities” is the flexibility of the mind along with the creative imagination of the individual and a high level of willpower development. That is why the process of professional training of future workers in the field of law requires a radical rethinking of the entire system of education and upbringing, updating the content of educational programs, forms and methods of spiritual formation of a person based on the humanization of his life, creating favorable conditions for self-realization in various types of activities. It was determined that the effectiveness of the organizational activity of the future legal scholars will be determined by special theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Investigating the specifics of the formation of organizational abilities of future attorneys, we note that they can be manifested only on the basis of practical activities. Therefore, while studying in higher education institutions, there is a possibility of purposeful stimulation of its formation in the course of the educational process. Organizational abilities of future specialists in the field of legal science are formed in the process of training sessions, which have their own specificity, and during the practice.

Published: December 2023

The fertiliser system is the most effective factor in the intensification of crop cultivation technologies. The basis for scientifically sound fertiliser application systems, along with obtaining the planned level of yield of the appropriate quality, is the study of the organic matter content and soil nutrient regime during crop rotation. The purpose of this study was to determine the mineral nitrogen, mobile phosphorus, exchangeable potassium, and humus content in typical chernozem under different fertilisation systems in short-term crop rotations. To solve the problem of soil fertility, an important approach is to conduct field and laboratory research to determine changes in the humus state according to Tyurin, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium regimes of the soil according to Machigin, and dispersion methods to determine the reliability of experimental data. As a result of the research, it was found that the highest humus content in the soil was recorded under the organic-mineral fertilisation system at the end of the second rotation in the grain crop rotation by 0.13% compared to the fruit crop rotation. The use of a mineral fertiliser system in a row crop rotation reduced the humus content by 0.12%. An increase in the humus content of typical chernozem was recorded under fruit crop rotation and grain-row crop rotation. The organic-mineral fertilisation system tended to increase the mineral nitrogen content of the soil compared to the other systems. The mineral nitrogen content of the mineral fertilisation system decreased by 5.5 mg/kg of soil compared to the unfertilised variant. Under the organic-mineral and mineral fertilisation system, the content of mobile phosphate increased in all crop rotations. The content of mobile phosphorus in the tilled crop rotation was substantially reduced compared to the fruit crop rotation and grain-row crop rotation. The highest content of exchangeable potassium in the soil was recorded under the mineral fertilisation system. The materials of the publications are of practical importance in the analysis of the main elements of mineral nutrition of typical chernozem in short crop rotations
The content of mineral nitrogen in a 0-30 cm soil layer as an indicator of ecosystem services: А case study of grasslands
Authors: Lipińska Halina , Shuvar Ivan , Lipiński Wojciech , Korpita Hanna , Korpita Weronika
Published: December 2023

Nitrogen’s role in agriculture lies in its mineral form, impacting plant availability and potential losses, with soil nitrogen content in grassy areas playing a vital role in ecosystem services like regulation and maintenance. The research aimed to evaluate these services using the mineral nitrogen indicator in the 0-30 cm soil layer, and to establish the link between their biophysical and financial values. This was done considering usage type, soil type, and corn as an alternative feed for ruminants. Services were assessed across 1,540 points in permanent green areas (meadows, pastures, alternating), grass cultivation areas (short-term), and corn fields. The study affirmed the significant contribution of grasslands to ecosystem services, evaluated through the “content of Nmin in a 0-30 cm” soil layer, which exhibited variations based on usage, type, and regional distinctions. The highest biophysical and monetary values of ecosystem services were found in grasslands designated for meadow use, while the lowest accumulation of Nmin in the 0-30 cm layer, thus impacting the scope of environmental services was observed in mineral soils subjected to short-term alternating crop cultivation (55.2 kg⸱ha-1) and corn cultivation (70.9 kg⸱ha-1). Across various usage methods and soil types, the region characterized by intensified livestock production, the Podlaskie Province displayed the highest biophysical and monetary values for grassland ecosystem services compared to the other provinces under study. In contrast, the remaining provinces exhibited comparatively lower values in this regard. The provided monetary value, based on current nitrogen fertilizer costs and grassland/corn extent, can universally gauge ecosystem service worth from fodder plants across farms, regions, and nations
Helium - Relationships to other reservoir gases and some implications for exploration: The New Mexico Example
Authors: Broadhead Ronald F.
Published: December 2023

Helium (He) is the second most abundant element in the universe after hydrogen but is relatively rare on earth. He occurs as two stable isotopes, 3He and 4He. 4He is the dominant isotope in crustal gases and is a radiogenic decay product of uranium and thorium mainly in granitic basement rocks. 3He is dominantly primordial and primarily originates from the earth’s mantle. 3He may also be formed by radiogenic decay of 6Li (Lithium) which may be found in argillaceous sediments deposited in evaporitic settings. Although He occurs in most natural gases, it almost always occurs in extremely low, subeconomic concentrations, less than 0.1%. It is rare in concentrations more than 1%. A very few small reservoirs have gases with more than 7% He. Other gases that constitute the dominant components of helium-bearing natural gases are nitrogen (N2), carbon dioxide (CO2), and methane (CH4). The highest He concentrations occur where the dominant gas is N2 but most He has historically been produced as a byproduct of gases that are hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are generated from petroleum source rocks. Their presence in a reservoir is dependent upon the presence of a mature source rock in the basin and a migration path between the source rock and the reservoir. Large accumulations of CO2 in the southwestern U.S. resulted from the degassing of rising Tertiary magmas and subsequent migration of the gases into crustal reservoirs. N2 appears to originate mostly from degassing of the mantle but may also be formed in some strata by the thermal maturation of kerogens or by diagenetic alteration of clays or organic compounds in red bed sequences. The presence of economic concentrations of He in reservoir gases is dependent not only on an adequate source of 4He generated from granitic basement rocks but also on accommodating flux rates of N2, CO2, and CH4. These gases differ in their origins, places of generation and rates of generation, migration and emplacement. While basement-derived 4He and N2 enter reservoirs at slow rates over long periods of geologic time, hydrocarbons and CO2 enter the reservoir over much shorter time periods and dilute the 4He and N2. Basement-derived gases may be characterized by differing N2:He ratios which may indicate greater rates of He production within the crust in some areas. Exploratory drilling for He on Chupadera Mesa in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s encountered He-rich gases in Lower Permian strata. Isotopic analyses suggest that 93% of Chupadera Mesa He originated from radiogenic decay in crustal rocks while 7% is derived from the mantle or with a possible contribution by evaporitic Permian shales. Marked differences in the CO2 concentrations in different strata indicate that some strata acted as carrier beds for magmatically-derived CO2 while strata with N2-rich and CO2-poor gases were isolated from CO2 sources.

Published: December 2023

We have extensively studied the strategies available to many patients admitted to the Neurosurgery Department of the Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar to combat malignant brain diseases. Our survey focused on interviewing leading neurosurgeons, learning about their procedures, and carefully reviewing numerous previous case studies. During our study, a total of sixty cases were observed. We found that craniotomy was the most prevalent method for removing brain tumours, followed by endoscopic surgery and that some patients were sent to specialized clinics for stereotactic and radio surgical procedures. The findings revealed a correlation between tumour type and tumour site, with glioblastoma multiforme and metastatic brain tumours having the greatest rates of morbidity and mortality after surgery. According to the results, craniotomy is the go-to neurosurgical operation for removing brain tumours, and the kind of brain tumour is a crucial determinant in determining the risk of postoperative complications and mortality. The results of this study may have far-reaching consequences for the development of neurosurgical knowledge and technique.

Authors: Botros Nada E , Polinger-Hyman David , Beck Ryan T , Kleefisch Christopher , Mrachek E. Kelly S , Connelly Jennifer , Schmainda Kathleen M , Krucoff Max O
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND

Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a parasitic infection of the brain caused by ingesting water or food contaminated with tapeworm eggs. When it presents as a solitary mass, differentiation from a primary brain tumor on imaging can be difficult. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-derived relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) is a newer imaging technique used to identify areas of neovascularization in tumors, which may advance the differential diagnosis.

OBSERVATIONS

A 25-year-old male presented after a seizure. Computed tomography (CT) and MRI demonstrated a partially enhancing lesion with microcalcifications and vasogenic edema. Follow-up rCBV assessment demonstrated mild hyperperfusion and/or small vessels at the lesional margins consistent with either an intermediate grade glioma or infection. Given the radiological equipoise, surgical accessibility, and differential diagnosis including primary neoplasm, metastatic disease, NCC, and abscess, resection was pursued. The calcified mass was excised en bloc and was confirmed as larval-stage NCC.

LESSONS

CT or MRI may not always provide sufficient information to distinguish NCC from brain tumors. Although reports have suggested that rCBV may aid in identifying NCC, here the authors describe a case of pathologically confirmed NCC in which preoperative, qualitative, standardized rCBV findings raised concern for a primary neoplasm. This case documents the first standardized rCBV values reported in a pathologically confirmed case of NCC in the United States.
