Abstract: In recent years, the analysis of extracellular particles (EPs) has become instrumental in deciphering intercellular communication and disease biomarkers. Interferometric light microscopy (ILM) has emerged as a powerful label-free technique for real-time charac-terization of nanoscale particles. This contribution presents for the first time measure-ments of EPs directly in diluted plasma by ILM on populations of samples. The study involves the measured number density of EPs, the corrected number density of EPs (taking into account dilution of the sample) and the size of EPs. Analysis involves plasma of multiple species—canine, equine, and human. Most of the Dh in all three spe-cies were confined to the interval between 130 nm and 200 nm. We found no statisti-cally significant correlation between the corrected n and Dh indicating good perfor-mance of the method. The correlation between the measured n and Dh was statistically significant indicating hindered movement of EPs due to their higher number density. These results showed that high throughput measurement of number density and size of EPs in plasma is feasible.

Background: Lower back pain (NPB) Ischialgia is a pinched ischialgia nerve in the lower back area which causes the buttocks, thighs, lower legs and even feet to become tingling, painful, and sometimes causing weakness. Manipulation is a term to cover all forms of passive movement techniques used to treat musculoskeletal disorders. Manipulation techniques are passive movement techniques that are carried out quickly so that the movement is completed before the patient can prevent it. The movement that occurs should not exceed the physiological range of motion of the joint. G.D. Maitland (1997),

The aim is to determine the effect of physiotherapy management on manual therapy in cases of lower back pain. Two group pre test and post test method. RESEARCH PLACE: Physiotherapy polyclinic, KRMT Wongsonegoro Hospital. TIME: Measuring instrument: Visual Analouge Scale (VAS). Results: treatment using the Mann-Whtney test. With confidence interval (CI) (95%) The results of the study revealed that there was a significant difference in pain in group 1 (p = 0.00) and group 2 (p = 0.00). But there was no significant difference between the two groups in pain improvement (p = 0.00), so there was a better effect between the two groups. Conclusion: It is concluded that manual therapy is useful in treating patients with lower back pain to reduce pain in two groups.

Elderly (elderly) is someone who has entered the final stages of the phase of life. This cycle can be seen from the symptoms of physical, psychological, and psychosocial changes. These changes will result anxiety. Anxiety is a feeling of fear that is not clear or even has no known cause. Knitting therapy is one method of lowering anxiety. The goal of this study was to examine how knitting therapy affected older people's anxiety levels. This research method uses a Pre-Experimental approach with aone group pre-post test.The population is 33 respondents and uses a simple random sampling technique. The research sample is 30 respondents. The instrument used is an anxiety questionnaire sheet withHamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS) Indonesian version, then the data is collected through a process Editing, Coding, Scoring,andTabulating. The data obtained were analyzed using the testpaired T-Test. The results showed the average value of anxiety before knitting therapy was 16.63 while after knitting therapy the average value of anxiety was 6.50. The results of the data analysis test showed that there was an effect of knitting therapy on reducing anxiety in the elderly with -valeu = 0.000 <α = 0.05. Knitting therapy can be used to improve focus, and develop patience. knitting activities can train the left and right brain when doing the same movement, besides sitting quietly and focusing on knitting can reduce heart rate and blood pressure, so we feel relaxed and calm, this situation acts as a pain reliever. This also makes the feeling happy so that it can provide positive energy in a person, this is what makes the mood happy so that feelings of anxiety decrease easily. It is hoped that knitting therapy can be applied to fill the spare time of the elderly and future researchers canmake modifications to the therapeutic media that will be used, one of which can be equipped with making video media.

Published: March 2024

BACKGROUND
There is substantial heterogeneity in disease presentation for individuals with TB disease, which may correlate with disease outcomes. We estimated disease outcomes by disease severity at presentation among individuals with
TB during the pre-chemotherapy era.

METHODS
We extracted data on people with TB enrolled between 1917 and 1948 in the USA, stratified by three disease severity categories at presentation using the U.S. National Tuberculosis Association
diagnostic criteria. These criteria were based largely on radiographic findings (“minimal”, “moderately advanced”, and “far advanced”). We used Bayesian parametric survival analysis to model the survival distribution overall, and by disease severity and
Bayesian logistic regression to estimate the severity-level specific natural recovery odds within 3 years.

RESULTS
People with minimal TB at presentation had a 2% (95% CrI 0–11%) probability of TB death within 5 years vs.
40% (95% CrI 15–68) for those with far advanced disease. Individuals with minimal disease had 13.62 times the odds (95% CrI 9.87–19.10) of natural recovery within 3 years vs. those with far advanced disease.

CONCLUSION
Mortality
and natural recovery vary by disease severity at presentation. This supports continued work to evaluate individualized (e.g., shortened or longer) regimens based on disease severity at presentation, identified using radiography.

Authors: Sousa S. , Santos S. , Alves C. M. , Gonçalves G. , Carvalho C. , Duarte R.
Published: March 2024

SETTING
The Portuguese municipalities of Penafiel and Marco de Canaveses are high TB incidence areas, where stone quarry workers represent a vulnerable population.

OBJECTIVE
To
assess the annual rate of TB infection (ARI) in stone quarry workers and to compare it with the TB notification rate in the general community.

DESIGN
An annual TB infection screening strategy using interferon-gamma release assay
(IGRA) was implemented in 2018 for workers from high-risk stone quarries. A prospective cohort was enrolled and workers screened in periods of 2 years were included. IGRA-positive workers were referred for preventive treatment. ARI was calculated as the proportion of workers with IGRA conversion.

RESULTS
Of the 232 IGRA-negative workers in 2018, 20 tested positive in 2019 (8.6% ARI). Of 171 IGRA-negative workers in 2019, eight tested positive in 2021 (4.7% in 2 years). Two of the 150 IGRA-negative workers in 2021 tested positive in 2022 (1.3%
ARI). ARI decreased by 84.9% between 2019 and 2022. In the two municipalities, the TB notification rate declined 23.9% between 2018 and 2021.

CONCLUSION
A more pronounced reduction in ARI was observed among stone quarry workers
regularly screened for TB infection compared to the notification rate among the general population in high-incidence municipalities. A screening strategy for high-risk populations, together with enforced community measures, could foster risk reduction in the community.

Published: March 2024

Buscando aumentar o rendimento da cultura da soja, o melhoramento genético alterou características morfofisiológicas das plantas, como a eficiência fotossintética. Atualmente, os cultivares são mais produtivos, com ciclos rápidos e possuem menor índice de área foliar, de modo que, danos ao dossel necessitam ter seus efeitos melhor elucidados. O artigo objetiva avaliar as alterações morfológicas e o rendimento de grãos de dois cultivares de soja precoces recomendados para a Região Sojícola 102, quando submetidos à desfolha com intensidades de 0%, 16,6%, 33,3%, 50% e 66,6%, em período reprodutivo (R2). O trabalho foi realizado na safra 2020/21, na área agrícola do IFRS Campus Ibirubá, com os cultivares DM53i54 IPRO e Zeus IPRO. Realizaram-se avaliações nas plantas após a colheita, quanto à morfologia e componentes de rendimento. Verificou-se que os cultivares, por apresentarem grupo morfológicos semelhantes, não diferiram. Já os níveis de desfolha crescentes, em média, influenciaram em variáveis morfológicas e no rendimento. Essa, foi positiva no número de nós totais e reprodutivos na haste principal, contudo provocou redução no comprimento do entrenó, rendimento de grãos e biológico. Houve interação entre cultivar e desfolha para peso de mil grãos e índice de colheita, sendo essas variáveis reduzidas por modelos distintos, conforme incremento da desfolha. Os dados sugerem ajustes nos valores de recomendação técnica de Níveis de Dano Econômico para a cultura, visto que a desfolha acarreta em redução na produtividade da soja e no peso de mil grãos, variáveis estas que estão altamente correlacionadas.

Este estudo objetiva analisar em que medida o isolamento social no início da pandemia COVID-19, afetou a vida de profissionais de saúde, quando necessitaram manter atividades presenciais nas instituições de saúde e responsabilidades com a família na vida privada. Estudo misto realizado a partir de um websurvey, com questionário online semi-estruturado, aplicado a 155 profissionais que permaneceram na linha de frente de combate à pandemia. O grupo foi composto por profissionais de nível superior, sendo 93,5% mulheres, 76,8% entre 25 a 49 anos, 59,4% de cor branca autodeclarada, 74,2% casadas ou em união estável, 75,5% com até dois filhos em idade escolar, 41,3% de religião católica, 68,4% com vínculo estatutário e 91,6% com pós-graduação. Durante o início da pandemia, a necessidade de isolamento social afetou a vida destes profissionais de saúde de modo contraditório, desigual e diferenciado. Quando parte da população vivenciava o isolamento social, principalmente as mulheres necessitaram acumular trabalhos remunerados presenciais no enfrentamento da pandemia e atividades de cuidado da família. Assim, a permanência nas atividades de trabalho na esfera pública e na vida privada gerava sobrecarga diante do déficit da rede de apoio, cujas tensões e conflitos perpassavam o medo de contaminação de si e da família.
Rascoala din 1738 a romanilor banateni si ecoul ei in presa din Europa
Authors: Feneșan Costin
Published: March 2024

In 1738 a large part of the military operations of the Austro‑Turkish War (1737–1739) took place on the territory of Banat. The penetration of the Turkish troops in the mountainous area of south‑eastern Banat encouraged the revolt of Romanian peasants who were extremely unhappy with the harsh taxation regime and the abuses of the imperial officials in Timisoara and in the province. The rebellious Romanians joined the Turkish troops in large numbers and attacked, often under their protection, small units of the imperial troops, but especially the mines and copper and iron smelters and also the villages (inhabited by German settlers) which had kept faith with Emperor Charles VI. Depending on the evolution of the front on the territory of Banat, the repression of the rebellious Romanians was carried out with no mercy by the Austrian troops (e. g. in the Almăjului Valley). The different war episodes and someones of the Romanian uprising were the source of the extensive reports sent to Vienna by the military commanders on the front and by the Imperial Administration in Timisoara, which were published twice a week in the semi‑official “Wiennerisches Diarium”. In fact, the Viennese newspaper was the exclusive source from which other newspapers in Europa took news of what was happening in Banat, includ‑ ing the Romanian uprising. In the appendix are published the 39 news items about the uprising that appeared in nine European newspapers: “Mercurii Relation oder wochen‑ tliche Ordinari‑Zeitung” in Munich, “Gazette de France” in Paris, “Le Courrier d’Avi‑ gnon”, “Bologna”, “Amsterdam” with the supplement “Suite de nouvelles d’Amsterdam”, “St. Petersburgische Zeitung” in St. Petersburg, “Mercure historique et politique” of The Hague (whose accounts were translated into Spanish and published in “Mercurio histórico y politico” in Madrid) and “Gazeta de Lisboa” in Lisbon.

This study examined the impact of Animal-Assisted Intervention (AAI), specifically contact with a therapist dog, on reducing stress among university students. The research was conducted at the Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná (PUCPR) in 2021 and involved nine medical students enrolled at the university. Inclusion criteria included no fear of or allergy to dogs. The results revealed that interaction with the dog had positive effects on reducing the students' stress. Although there were no significant changes in heart rate, systolic blood pressure decreased significantly after the interaction. In addition, the students' levels of stress, anxiety, tension and worry decreased after the session with the dog, and no student reported elevated levels of these parameters after the interaction. The students also mentioned that, during the interaction with the dog, they were able to momentarily forget their worries, which suggests a temporary relief from stress. In addition, the majority of participants stated that they would recommend the Animal Assisted Intervention. These results indicate that AAI, even in short sessions, can be effective in reducing stress among university students. The presence of a therapist dog creates a pleasant social atmosphere and offers emotional support, improving students' mental health. Therefore, the implementation of animal-assisted therapy programs in academic settings can be beneficial in helping undergraduate students cope with stress and anxiety, promoting a healthier learning environment.

Published: March 2024

The objective of this literature review is to critically analyze the factors that influence the efficiency of intraoral scanners. Searches in electronic databases were performed using indexed keywords and free terms. The research was limited to full articles written in Portuguese and English and published in journals between 2011 and 2024. Intraoral scanning systems can be used reliably for diagnostic purposes and for short-span areas. However, for full-arc scanning, this system is more susceptible to distortion. Regarding the different scanner systems, the studies indicated variable results that do not allow a preference for the system to be realized. It is concluded that for the performance of prosthetic rehabilitation, the accuracy of the scanners is higher when the extension of the scan is reduced and when the scanned surfaces have minimal irregularities.

Published: March 2024

Iron sand mining in the Dedalpak Block began in 2009 where the authority to grant mining permits ranging from mining business permits (IUP) exploration to mining business permits (IUP) for production operations was issued by the Regent of East Lombok by adhering to article 37 of Law Number 4 of 2009. However, with the enactment of Law Number 32 of 2014 Challenging Regional Governments, the authority of the iron sand mining permit was taken by the NTB Provincial Government, then with the presence of Law Number 3 of 2020 the authority for iron sand mining business licenses by PT. AMG was taken over by the Centre. In its implementation, iron sand mining by PT. AMG with the enactment of Law Number 3 of 2020 has a significant impact on the mining licensing process for iron sand production in the Dedalpak block of East Lombok, where the central government through the Director General of Energy and Mineral Resources requires thirteen conditions so that the IUP for production operations can be obtained by PT. AMG. The company, however, has not been able to meet five requirements, so its license was suspended. Another impact, the community in the Dedalpak block circle resisted by going to race through a series of protests for the mining to be closed, because it caused a large environmental impact.

Published: March 2024

Context: Sepsis is a progressive inflammatory response commonly caused by gram-negative bacteria via activation of the NF-κB-dependent pathway. Severe sepsis can cause cardiac dysfunction and increases the risk of death. Artemisia lactiflora is a Chinese medicinal plant that contains phenolics and flavonoids with probable anti-inflammatory activities. Aims: To investigate the anti-inflammatory activities of A. lactiflora leaves extract in a cardiac sepsis model. Methods: A. lactiflora leaves were extracted and fractioned using solvents of different polarities. The total phenolic and flavonoid content was quantified. The antioxidants were quantified in vitro using DPPH and ABTS radicals. The cytotoxicity of the extract and fractions was evaluated and calculated using the neutral red assay and curve-fitting analysis in cardiomyoblasts (H9c2). The anti-inflammatory activities of A. lactiflora were observed by treating H9c2 with extract and fractions in the presence of Escherichia coli. Expression of pro-inflammatory genes (TNF and IL6) and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6) were measured by RT-qPCR and ELISA. Results: Extract and fractions of A. lactiflora contained noticeably high quantities of phenolics and flavonoids with considerably high anti-DPPH and anti-ABTS activities. Co-treatment with A. lactiflora extract and all fractions significantly downregulated the expression of TNF and IL6 as well as decreased the secretion of TNF-α and IL-6 (p<0.0001) compared with E. coli-stimulated cardiomyoblasts. The butanol fraction had the highest potency in reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine secretions in cardiomyoblasts under in vitro sepsis conditions. Conclusions: A. lactiflora leaf extract demonstrated therapeutic potential in a cardiac sepsis model by alleviating the inflammatory responses. This plant can potentially be developed as an alternative medicine for inflammation and sepsis.
Veterinarian of Record Relationships for Animal Shelters: Differences in Expectations between Veterinarians and Nonveterinarian Shelter Administrators
Authors: Almcrantz Sara R. , Walz Emily J. , Spencer Terry G.
Published: March 2024

Veterinarian of record relationships (VoRRs) are nonregulated business agreements between animal shelters, veterinarians, and distributors that allow resource-limited organizations to purchase wholesale medical supplies. Anecdotally, animal shelters report difficulty retaining veterinarians to serve as Veterinarians of record (VoRs) and veterinarians report reluctance to work with animal shelters, resulting in increased expenses for the organizations and diminished access to veterinary care for their populations. We distributed an anonymous, online survey to explore the motivations and expectations of a VoRR from the perspective of the animal shelter administrator and the potential VoR. The primary motivators to enter a VoRR and concerns about a VoRR differed between veterinarian and nonveterinarian respondents. Specifically, veterinarians were significantly more concerned than nonveterinarian administrators about adherence to the legal requirements to fulfill a veterinary-client-patient relationship (VCPR). Additionally, veterinarians expected significantly higher compensation for veterinary services than shelter administrators expected to provide. These findings suggest a potential disconnect between shelters and veterinarians regarding financial, legal, and ethical aspects of VoRRs, possibly leading to hesitance among veterinarians to engage in such roles. Describing these differences is the first step in determining how to bridge these expectation gaps toward the joint goal of improving welfare for animals in shelter settings.

O Pensamento Computacional (PC) pode auxiliar no desenvolvimento de habilidades cognitivas e pode ser abordado em jogos digitais educacionais (JDE), mas adequações são necessárias para que tais jogos possam ser utilizados por estudantes com Deficiência Intelectual. Com base nesse cenário, apresentou-se a criação de um JDE intitulado Pensar e Vestir, que trabalha com os quatro pilares de PC ao tratar do processo de escolha de roupas e o ato de vesti-las. Contou-se com a participação de um grupo multidisciplinar e foi seguido a metodologia de Design Simples. Como resultado, este JDE possui duas fases e oito situações cada. Além disso, o jogo também foi avaliado por estudantes e pelo público-alvo.

O teste de software é considerado uma atividade chave no ciclo de desenvolvimento de software, pois ajuda os profissionais de computação a projetar software de boa qualidade. Assim, esta é uma atividade essencial para a indústria de software, embora com todas as suas nuances ainda não seja dada alta prioridade ao aprendizado em nível acadêmico. Tendo em vista que é um conteúdo que precisa de uma boa quantidade de elementos de conhecimentos prévios e grande parte do seu conhecimento necessita de intervenções práticas, viu-se a importância de se utilizar as metodologias ativas, que vem tendo uma boa aceitação em disciplinas mais práticas de computação. Assim, o principal objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar uma abordagem de ensino utilizada com um currículo e um plano de ensino de uma disciplina de testes de software, elaborados com base em metodologias ativas. Como resultados tem-se um plano de ensino que é construído a partir de metodologias ativas, composto por 32 aulas teóricas e práticas, distribuídas em 4 módulos, baseado em referenciais de um currículo especializado em testes de software, e construído a partir de um mapeamento em diferentes ativos relacionados a testes de software, sendo os principais deles o Guia de Referencias Curriculares da SBC, o guia curricular da ACM/IEEE e o Guia dos conhecimentos de Engenharia de Software SWEBOK. Além disso, dois quase-experimentos foram executados por completo, o primeiro avaliou a efetividade da abordagem de ensino de testes em comparação com uma abordagem tradicional e o segundo além de avaliar a efetividade da abordagem de ensino perante uma abordagem tradicional também fez uma análise da eficiência da aprendizagem na turma. Ambos foram analisados com uma abordagem estatística utilizando a distribuição t de Student bicaudal, que apresentou um certo ganho de aprendizagem para a abordagem apresentada, sendo ele de até p-value = 000007915 no melhor caso.

Published: March 2024

Os laboratórios são essenciais para o ensino de engenharia, sendo os Laboratórios Remotos um apoio no Processo de Ensino-Aprendizagem, permitindo acesso aos equipamentos de maneira remota. Uma revisão sistemática da literatura mostrou que existe um impacto positivo nos uso de laboratórios remotos, baseada na percepção dos alunos e professores, e nas notas dos alunos em alguns casos. No entanto, não foi possível encontrar evidências de adaptação das experiências ou métodos de ensino-aprendizagem presenciais para Laboratórios Remotos. Neste trabalho, pretendemos propor uma maneira de implementar Laboratórios Remotos que permite melhorar as competências em engenharia de acordo com o tipo do laboratório, usando teorias de aprendizagem e técnicas de Learning Analytics.

Characterization of Water-Based Anti-Corrosion and Anti-Fouling Coating in the Heat Exchanger Tube of Gas Water Heater
Authors: WANG Lei , WU Lijun , YUAN Zhicheng , LIANG Xingyuan , CHEN Wenzheng
Published: March 2024

Due to the fouling and corrosion issues with gas water heater heat exchangers during use, a water-based coating is created using the sol-gel method and applied to the inner surface of the copper tube of the heat exchangers. The water-based coating can reduce the surface energy of copper that is oxygen-free by 82.40 % and has outstanding hydrophobicity. The coating's adhesion strength was 8.46 MPa, and its wet adhesion reduction rate was only 0.0375 MPa·d-1 when submerged in a bath of water at a constant temperature. Its water contact angle remained above 110° even after being abraded by sandpaper, demonstrating its excellent wear resistance. At a constant temperature of 45 °C, the corrosion experiment was carried out in salt, acid, and alkali solutions. The maximum corrosion rate of the coating was 3.24 × 10-2mg∙(cm2∙h)-1, which was only 20.85 % of that of the oxygen-free copper substrate. The dynamic fouling experiment shows that the coating can effectively inhibit fouling growth, prolong the fouling induction period and reduce the average fouling rate. By factoring in the fouling thermal resistance and the coating thermal resistance, the overall heat transfer coefficient of the copper tube was computed. The results demonstrate that after applying this water-based coating, the copper tube can continue to have a high heat transfer coefficient for an extended period, ensuring the continuous and effective operation of the heat exchanger and having practical application value.
The Rise and Fall of the EU Taxonomy: Lessons in the Implementation of Sustainability Accounting and Accountability
Authors: Abel Martin-Sebastian , Markarian Garen
Published: March 2024

The initial purpose of the EU Taxonomy was to establish a framework that defines environmentally sustainable economic activities within the European Union (EU), designed to address the urgent need for a common language and criteria to identify and classify sustainable investments. Its offspring, the EU-CSRD and European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), would aim to provide clarity and transparency to investors, businesses, and policymakers regarding the environmental performance of economic activities. Lofty goals notwithstanding, the daunting task to catalogize all business activity in terms of its environmental and social footprint, has been branded as a failure. The regulatory capture by business groups and member state interests has led to a dilution of initial targets, that it no more satisfies the requirements on which the EU Taxonomy was originally based. The way forward is unclear and entails further time-wasting, or delegating pressing environmental needs to private standard setting bodies. Initiatives led by the ISSB through the IFRS foundation, SASB and the TCFD, to develop globally recognized sustainability reporting standards, provide for a viable and more effective, alternative regime.
Die Aberkennung des Asylstatus wegen strafbaren Verhaltens
Authors: Neusiedler Manuel
Published: March 2024

Die Regelungen über die Aberkennung des Asylstatus wegen strafbaren Verhaltens wurden bisher nur punktuell wissenschaftlich bearbeitet und daher hauptsächlich von der Praxis „geformt“. Mit dem vorliegenden Werk sollen diese „Lücke“ geschlossen und eine umfassende Analyse des Asylaberkennungsregimes in wissenschaftlich fundierter Weise geboten werden. Insbesondere wird folgenden Fragen nachgegangen: Welche Vorgaben für die nationale Gesetzgebung bestehen aufgrund der Genfer Flüchtlingskonvention? Welche Auswirkungen hat das Flüchtlingsrecht der Europäischen Union auf das österreichische Asylrecht? Welche (strukturellen) Grundsätze sind den einschlägigen Aberkennungsgründen gemein? Was unterscheidet sie im Einzelnen? Welche Problemfelder können sich in Zukunft auftun? Die vorliegende Auseinandersetzung bietet eine wertvolle Unterstützung für die Praxis bei der Durchdringung dieses aktuellen Themas und zeigt eigene Auffassungen des Autors sowie alternative Lösungsansätze – auch zur Fortentwicklung des wissenschaftlichen Diskurses – auf.
Die allgemeine zivilrechtliche Haftung des Anwenders körperlicher autonomer Systeme
Authors: Opitz Paul
Published: March 2024

The thesis examines questions of liability under contract and tort law for physical autonomous systems and focuses on the liability of the user of these systems. The specific risks of autonomous systems push traditional liability regimes to their limits. Whether new regulations are necessary and what they might look like, is discussed on the basis of a comparative analysis of German and US law. The thesis defines key terms, explains specific risks of autonomous systems, and takes into account particular characteristics of the "Industry 4.0". Finally, the thesis presents regulatory options for the German legislature, with the main focus on the introduction of a new strict liability regime.
Nachhaltigkeit durch Verbandspartizipation
Authors: Galir Elisa
Published: March 2024

Sustainability issues have enormous political and social implications. Intergenerational justice issues have been in focus not only since the groundbreaking climate decision of the Federal Constitutional Court on 24 March 2021. The author examines how new procedural and action rights for sustainability protection associations can be used to implement the state mandate of sustainability from Article 20a of the German Constitution more effectively. The central model is the extension of environmental association participation to sustainability interests. The work presents a new understanding of sustainability as "de-temporalized environmental protection" and offers an objective legal safeguard for the rights of future generations through the proposed institutionalization of sustainability protection remedies.

Published: March 2024

The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) power cycle is a well-established solution for harnessing heat sources to generate energy. Presently, ORC systems predominantly employ hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) as working fluids. However, these substances possess significant greenhouse gas effects and are slated for future bans. To address this, it is imperative to establish rational selection criteria and corresponding techniques for evaluating working fluids suitable for industrial ORC applications. This chapter presents the working fluid selection criteria and screening methods for environmentally friendly working fluids. The chapter is organized as follows: (1) The fundamentals of working fluids section provide a broad introduction to the core principles of working fluids; (2) the working fluid section outlines reasonable selection criteria for identifying potential alternatives; (3) the screening of ORC working fluids section discusses possible working fluid candidates, simulation approach, and thermodynamic models in detail, which is very important to access the thermodynamic performance of ORC cycle; and (4) an example of the simulation of an ORC for working fluid selection section demonstrates the strategy for the selection of a working fluid considering a defined ORC architecture.
