Evaluation of Electricity Generation from Wastewater by Microbial Fuel Cell
Authors: Cong Vo Huu , Vien Tran Duc , Hang Ho Thi Thuy
Published: January 2024

Combined systems for wastewater treatment and resource recovery have been developed in many countries. However, systems for energy generation are still underdeveloped. This research was conducted to evaluate the possibility of electric potential generation from wastewater using a microbial fuel cell system (MFC). The simple two-chamber apparatus (2 liters) was fed with wastewater collected from dormitory discharge. Three batch experiments were carried out with 2 liters of wastewater with an influent concentration of 518 mg L-1 BOD5 and 750 mg L-1 COD. The results showed that the microbial fuel cell system generated a potential from 0.29 to 0.45 V for 7 days in the presence of 1.0-1.5% (v/v) Bacillus subtilis while this potential was not obtained in the case when microbes were not added. The highest removal efficiencies of BOD5 and COD reached 56% and 63%, respectively. It was found that the potential dropped to almost zero in all of the treatments while the ratio of BOD:COD was 0.83 and the concentration of BOD was around 230 mg L-1, indicating that other governing factors may have an impact on potential electricity generation. Therefore, further studies on the effects of the operating conditions and equipment should be comprehensively studied.

Published: January 2024

Lentinula edodes (Berk.) Pegler, commonly known as shiitake mushroom, is one of the most popular edible mushrooms with valuable medicinal properties. Despite its global popularity, the cultivation of shiitake in Vietnam has been limited due to a lack of research on this macrofungus. This study aimed to optimize the culture conditions for the mycelial growth and fruiting body development of two shiitake strains, J1 and J2. The culture conditions were optimized by one-factor-at-a-time method. A temperature of 25°C was found to be optimal for the growth of both strains, while glucose was identified as the most effective carbon source. Yeast extract and ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) were found to be the optimal nitrogen sources for favorable mycelial growth of strains J1 and J2, respectively. The most suitable spawning material for upscaling the mycelium was a mixture of 74% grain rice, 25% sawdust, and 1% CaCO3. Additionally, the cultivation of strain J2 on a mixture of 69% corncobs, 20% sawdust, 10% wheat bran, and 1% CaCO3 led to a higher biological yield (36.5%) than that of strain J1 (23.5%). These findings provide useful information for improving the cultivation technology of shiitake and expanding its cultivation in Vietnam.
The Impacts of Financial Development, Trade Openness, Natural Resources Rent, and Government Expenditure on Economic Growth: Evidence in Northeast Asia
Authors: Anh Tru Nguyen
Published: January 2024

The association among financial development, trade openness, natural resources rent, government expenditure, and economic growth has been investigated by scholars, but the results have been controversial. This study attempts to examine the relationship among financial development, trade openness, natural resources rent, government expenditure, and economic growth in three Northeast Asian countries, namely China, Japan, and the Republic of Korea, between 1981 and 2020 using the fixed effect and random effect models. The results of the feasible generalized least squares model stated that economic growth of these countries can be fostered by financial development and trade openness.  However, surprisingly, natural resources rent had a negative effect on the economic growth of the three countries in the region, while the relationship between government expenditure and economic growth was not statistically significant. Finally, policies are recommended to accelerate economic growth and achieve sustainable development for the region. First, financial development should be encouraged by improving domestic credit to the private sector. Second, trade openness should be facilitated to exploit competitive advantages in export-led growth, and science and technology. Finally, the countries should implement sustainable growth models to their reduce dependence on natural resources and achieve sustainable development for the region.

Published: January 2024

His study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Nagari Forest Management Institution in achieving the objectives of the Social Forestry Program and examine the factors that influence the effectiveness of the Nagari Forest Management Institution in achieving the objectives of the Social Forestry Program. This research is a qualitative research using interviews, observations and FGDs to collect research data. The results of this study indicate that the Nagari Forest Management Institute in implementing the Social Forestry program from an ecological aspect has been effective, this can be seen from changes in the behavior of exploitative permit holders to care about forests, permit holders have played an active role in preserving and protecting forests, namely by planting replanting forest plants in agroforestry manner so as to have a positive impact on the environment in the form of maintaining water sources, uprooting critical land, conserving biodiversity, and reducing forest fires, so that forest sustainability is maintained. Furthermore, the Nagari Forest Management Agency in the economic aspect is considered ineffective because the social forestry program has not been able to increase the amount of production generated from business activities, the amount of net profit and business expansion and this program has not opened up many business opportunities for permit holders. Then the authors also found that not all of the Social Forestry Business Institutions formed at LPHN could operate and carry out transactions and the ability to access permit holders in marketing Non-Timber Forest Product products was also still low. The Nagari Forest Management Institution in the social aspect is also ineffective where the LPHN has not been able to increase the knowledge of permit holders, as seen from the lack of participation of LPHN members in every activity and the lack of strong institutional capacity. LPHN has also not been able to provide satisfaction to permit holders with the results achieved, and has not had an impact on farmers

West Sumatera Province is one of the 15 provinces with the highest slum area in Indonesia. The city of Padang, as the largest city and the provincial capital, has a number of slum areas with an area of  122.33 ha. Of the 22 Kelurahan in Padang, one of the widest slum areas is in the Kelurahan Binuang Kampung Dalam. The KOTAKU program is then present to direct and synergize all forms of collaboration between parties to prevent and improve the quality of slum settlements, especially the community as active development subjects. Within two years, the KOTAKU program initiated CFW (Cash For Work) and Sanitation Assistance activities with a total budget of nearly one billion by involving the full participation of the people there. This thesis aims to analyze how effective and the inhibiting factors of the KOTAKU Program are in dealing with slum settlements in Binuang Kampung Dalam Village. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach, and the method of selecting informants used a purposive sampling technique with the method of measuring program effectiveness using the Pentagonal Assets 7 Indicators. The results showed that the implementation of the KOTAKU program in Binuang Kampung Dalam Kelurahan focused on road repairs with a volume of 2,352.4 meters, drainage improvements with a volume of 275.7 meters, community capacity building 1 package, and sanitation improvement assistance to 100 families. However, the KOTAKU program is still considered less effective, because it does not bring changes to the other three indicators. The factors inhibiting the effectiveness of the program are the absence of programs on the indicators of building order, waste management and fire protection and the slow disbursement of funds

Ratni omladinski romani Dušana Kostića u jugoslovenskom i crnogorskom kontekstu
Authors: Kalezić-Radonjić Svetlana
Published: January 2024

Ratna književnost za djecu i mlade, naročito ona koja tematizuje Drugi svjetski rat, tokom pola vijeka predstavljala je važan dio jugoslovenskog književnog kanona. U radu ću pokušati da osvijetlim njene specifičnosti, širi društveni kontekst u okviru kog se pojavljuje, njenu ulogu u procesu politizacije i konkretnu pojavnost u okviru crnogorske omladinske književnosti, na primjerima dva ratna romana čuvenog pisca Dušana Kostića. Kostićevi ratni romani (Gluva pećina, 1956, i Sutjeska, 1958) po atmosferi, tematici i načinu obrade teme – spadaju u omladinsku a ne u dječju književnost – pisac ne štedi mlade čitaoce, ne uprošćava psihologiju junaka i složenu pripovjednu materiju vodeći ih put naivnih sfera, ne piše tendenciozno i jednostrano, zbog čega ga podjednako mogu čitati godištem vrlo različiti pripadnici čitalačke publike. Iako završetak njegovih romana ne karakteriše happy end, kroz njih zapravo provijava ontološki optimizam – mladi čitaoci svjesni kompleksnosti života u ratnim okolnostima ipak ne ostaju bez nade, kao jedne od ključnih odlika omladinske književnosti.
Митопоетика будућности код јенских романтичара
Authors: Петровић Вук
Published: January 2024

Рад настоји да утврди темеље за потоњу духовноповесну и филолошку анализу јенског романтизма као једне од средишњих појава у историји европске културе. Есеј се превасходно усредсређује на сарадњу Шлајермахера, Новалиса и Фридриха Шлегела током последњих година 18. века. Оса око које се романтичари и идеалисти групишу јесте часопис Атенеум (1898–1800), који излази у Берлину, но чији сарадници махом (изузетак је Шлајермахер) дејствују из Јене као епицентра окупљања који генерише дух романтичне уметности у Немачкој. Ова се, у оквиру књижевне културе Гетеовог доба, издваја тежњом за религијским употпуњењем људског бића, мисаоно се формира кроз Шлајермахерове Говоре о религији, поетички се учвршћује кроз Шлегелово промишљање идеалне романтичне књижевности као оне која ће бити заснована на новој митологији, а поетски се остварује кроз еротско-религијску синтезу тоталне хуманости у Новалисовом делу.
An Analysis of Social and Cultural Capital in Don Delillo's White Noise: a Bourdeusian Perspective
Authors: Bandad Erfan , Ghaderi Farah
Published: January 2024

White Noise is Don DeLillo’s eighth novel which was published in 1985. The novel has been scrutinized by many scholars from different schools of thought. In this article, we try to read White Noise in light of Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of different types of capital and make an effort to take note of representations of each of these types. Nevertheless, since the biggest contribution Bourdieu makes to discussions regarding capital is his explanations of social capital and cultural capital, this article uses Bourdieu’s explanations of these categories of capital together with those of other Bourdeusian scholars in order to identify representations of social capital and cultural capital in the forms of the embodied state, the objectified state and the institutionalized state in the novel. In regards to social capital, the article argues that the efforts people make in White Noise to become members of various social groups are a strategy they devise in order to advance their overall capital. Furthermore, in terms of cultural capital, it is argued that its possession can help individuals gain benefits such as better chances of academic education and higher social ranks. Moreover, the findings suggest that access to the subcategories of cultural capital can elevate individuals’ social position.
Critical Discourse Analysis of Newspaper Articles from The Washington Post and Jutarnji list Reporting on the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Stojan Nataša
Published: January 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted every aspect of our lives and become the topic of scientific research in various fields. This paper analyses selected newspaper articles from The Washington Post and Jutarnji list, published from February to May of 2020, based on Norman Fairclough’s three-dimensional framework of three stages: description, interpretation, and explanation. At the description level, pandemic-related vocabulary is analysed; at the interpretation level, newspaper discourse is analysed from the perspective of news sources and modes of discourse representation; and at the explanation level the discourse is analysed from the standpoints of the institutional and societal contexts. Analysis revealed a striking difference between The Washington Post and Jutarnji list in the total number of pandemic-related words. There are 315 pandemic-related words in The Washington Post and 707 in Jutarnji list. Furthermore, in The Washington Post, the focus is on the dangerous aspects of the pandemic, while Jutarnji list focuses on certain neutral aspects of the pandemic. At the interpretation level, the results show that Jutarnji list used a higher percentage of specified news sources. There are no major differences in the usage of modes of discourse representation. The differences in certain aspects of newspaper discourse at the explanation level reflect a range of ideological differences between the two countries.

Game-based Learning and its Application to Foreign Language Learning in Montenegro
Authors: Ivanović Igor
Published: January 2024

This paper deals with some practical aspects of game-based learning (GBL) in terms of foreign language acquisition. The main premise of this paper is that game-based learning is inherently more suitable for language learning than a traditional classroom, since it is based on the concept of playfulness, which is an integral part of the personalities of virtually all learners and especially young learners. Therefore game-based learning can be used to remove the linearity and negative predictability of the traditional classroom paradigm and introduce a novel way of teaching students in Montenegro. Another benefit of game-based learning is that it can be applied to just about any subject in our schools and faculties with the caveat of first implementing appropriate adjustments to the curriculum design depending on the specific nature of the subject in question. First, we will introduce the concept of GBL, then provide an overview of the overall theories this paper is based on and introduce the outcomes of our GBL study with a game called Portal 2 and show how game-based learning can be practically applied to foreign language teaching and learning. Our study was designed to function as longitudinal research containing the Target and two Control groups with the aim of investigating whether game-based learning can be an effective tool for foreign language learning. We found that GBL may provide an interactive and engaging environment that encourages active participation and immersion in the language, which helps learners develop their communication, vocabulary, grammar, and cultural awareness skills in a fun and motivating way.

Do Institutional Quality and Terrorism Affect the Natural Resources Rents?
Authors: Abid Mehdi , Sekrafi Habib , Farhani Ramzi , Gheraia Zouheyr , Abdelli Hanane
Published: January 2024

Despite the significant development observed in African countries’ economies thanks to the exploitation of natural resources, this has had very little impact on the daily lives of the population. Africa is also characterized by an increase in violent extremism, that is, the political, ideological, social and economic forces that support and fuel terrorism. Thus, a better understanding of the relationship between the possession of natural resources, terrorist attacks and institutional quality is essential for policy makers. Indeed, although being endowed with natural resources constitutes one of the pillars of growth and development, it is also the main funding source for terrorist groups in African countries. Our study covers a sample of 47 African countries over a period from 1996 to 2017. The terrorism variable takes four measures: uncertain, domestic, transnational and total. The research is based on three estimators, namely Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), Random Effects (RE) and System GMM. The paper argues that any increase in terrorist attacks contributes to the reduction of natural resources rents. Also, a country’s poor institutional quality contributes to poor exploitation of natural resources rents. Given the complementarities detected between terrorism, natural resources rents and institutional quality, improving institutional quality and reducing terrorism would lead to a better exploitation of natural resources.

Authors: Ibarguen Jenny , Castrillón Rosaura
Published: January 2024

The decarbonization of all sectors of the energy system is essential to mitigate climate change. However, the existing barriers, mainly related to information, prevent the implementation of Energy Efficiency measures and energy management systems in SMEs to reduce carbon emissions. An energy audit is considered a critical step for businesses that want to increase their energy efficiency and reduce energy consumption cost-effectively. The present study addressed ISO 50002 and its contribution to energy management based on the ISO 50001:2019 standard through a case study applied to an SME in the non-metallic mineral sector, which allowed establishing the guidelines and the form to address an energy audit in an SME under ISO 50002, determining opportunities for improvement by eliminating unproductive times, correcting fleeting compressed air, eliminating energy losses due to operational variability, automating the start-up of the Hammer Mill and the feed band in gypsum grinding. Additionally, an annual energy and economic savings potential of 162,599 KWh and COP 49,360,442 was estimated; and 26,992 Kg CO2 stopped emitting.

The Impact of Resource Revenue on Non-Resource Tax Revenue in Oil-Exporting Countries: Evidence from Nonlinear Analysis
Authors: Slimane Sarra Ben
Published: January 2024

The main objective of this study was to examine the asymmetric effect of resource tax revenues on non-resource ones in oil-rich countries, as most previous research on the subject has assumed a symmetric resource-non-resource tax revenue nexus. We employed linear ARDL model to analyze the short- and long-term effects and found a negative relationship between resource and non-resource tax revenues. Based on nonlinear ARDL model estimates, empirical results provide strong evidence for the asymmetric effect of resource tax revenues. In the long-run, positive shocks have negative impacts on non-resource tax revenues. Conversely, negative shocks were found to not lead to increased non-resource tax revenues. In addition, findings show that the short-term effects are stronger when resource tax revenues increase.

Published: January 2024

Disclosure of carbon emissions has become a global issue amidst the increasing world climate. This issue becomes a tranding that can affect the company's performance supported by the company's environmental performance. This study aims to examine the role of environmental performance in the influence between the company's financial performance on the disclosure of carbon emissions. This research was conducted on Basic Industry and Chemical companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The unit of analysis used in this study was 150 observation units. Data analysis uses multiple regression analysis. The results of the analysis show that first: financial performance consisting of liquidity, profitability, leverage, and sales growth has a direct effect on the disclosure of carbon emissions. However, the return on equity ratio has no effect on the disclosure of carbon emissions. Second, the results show that the presence of environmental performance can not maximally encourage the disclosure of carbon emissions. Where the company can improve environmental performance if the company has better financial performance. This is indicated by the value of the direct effect of environmental performance has no effect on the disclosure of carbon emissions. However, this research is limited to basic and chemical companies, so future research can expand to companies that have a direct impact on the environment.

Authors: Arisanti Restu , Purnamawati Suci , Muslim Agus
Published: January 2024

The Covid-19 pandemic has affected every aspect, including the greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation industry. The adoption of Lockdown during the Covid-19 outbreak has decreased greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector. Studying the variables that affect the transportation sector's greenhouse gas emissions during the COVID-19 pandemic is particularly fascinating. Big data and official statistics were combined to create the data for this study.  Official statistics are sourced from Statistics Indonesia (BPS) and the National Development Planning Agency (BAPPPENAS) while big data is sourced from the google mobility index. Based on the results of the generalized linear model with the gamma link, it can be concluded that the growth of GRDP per capita and the mobility of people to workplaces have a negative effect on greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector, mobility of the population to groceries and pharmacies has a positive effect on greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector, while people's mobility to recreation and retail has no effect on greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector. During the Covid-19 pandemic, population mobility to Workplaces which showed reduced work from an office (WFO) and increased work from home (WFH) had the greatest influence on reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector. Work from home (WFH) can be used as a solution to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector at the beginning of the Covid-19 endemic.

Published: January 2024

This paper discusses the level of green energy consumption in North Sumatra from 2020 to 2022 using the entropy method, the breakpoint method, and the integrated method. These three methods are applied to determine the feasibility of using new renewable energy. The three methods will be compared to each other to determine accuracy and options for analyzing models in the future. The level of green energy users from 2020 to 2022 generally shows a relatively stable and sustainable upward trend. During the 3 years there were fluctuations caused by the large growth rate of total energy consumption in North Sumatra, which increased by 6.35% from the previous year, and the level of urban green energy consumption grew steadily, which provided a more stable increase in user levels green energy with a sharp increase in the previous year. However, there are significant gaps in green energy consumption levels between cities. The contribution of this research is to select a model that will be applied in North Sumatra and provide input for policymakers regarding future energy and can have a positive impact on technological innovation, industry, and financial support in particular.
Semi-Nonparametric Estimation of Energy Demand in Tunisia
Authors: Landolsi Monia , Miled Kamel Bel Hadj
Published: January 2024

In this paper, we have studied the possibilities of substitution between different forms of energy at the sectoral level in Tunisia. Indeed, we estimated a globally flexible functional form of Fourier type using the iterative Zellner’s seemingly unrelated regression (ITSUR). Contrary to several previous studies in the literature, we calculated the price (proper and crossed) and income elasticities, the elasticities of substitution in the sense of Allen, as well as the elasticities of substitution in the sense of Morishima for the period (1980-2017). The results show that price and income elasticities differ from one energy product to another and from one sector to another, depending on the destination (final or intermediate) and the nature of use. Additionally, the findings suggest that energy demand is more sensitive to changes in income rather than changes in price. It is noteworthy that the absolute value of price elasticity is lower than that of income elasticity. Implementing an appropriate pricing policy can help limit the income effect and encourage economic agents to make efforts to save energy. Our results also indicate that any pricing policy aiming to reduce energy consumption must consider the possibilities of substituting between products. Otherwise, this policy may yield results contrary to the intended objectives.
Safe Haven for Crude Oil: Bitcoin or Precious Metals? New Insight from Time Varying Coefficient-Vector Autoregressive Model
Authors: Abidi Ilyes , Touhami Kamel
Published: January 2024

This paper investigates the safe haven property of Bitcoin and the main precious metals in a state of crisis. This study focuses mainly on two critical periods, namely the COVID-19 health crisis and the Russian-Ukraine conflict. To achieve this objective, we first use the DCC-GARCH model to study the dynamic correlation between the returns of oil and the main precious metals. Then, we use a bivariate specification and a Bayesian specification to estimate the TVC-VAR model. The results of this study indicate the existence of similarity between Gold and Bitcoin in hedging capabilities. In fact, both have been weak havens during the COVID-19 health crisis and strong havens during the Russian-Ukrainian war period. On the other hand, the results suggest that ruthenium and iridium yields are uncorrelated or negatively correlated with Brent yields. In this respect, investors are called upon to keep their treasury in the form of iridium and ruthenium during this period of war. Similarly, investors were required to invest in these two assets during the COVID-19 period.

Published: January 2024

The research aimed to evaluate the impact of electricity consumption and oil prices on the GDP of GCC countries. The oil industry is the backbone of economies in these countries, accounting for a significant portion of GDP. The variations and volatility in petroleum prices significantly affect GCC countries’ GDP. Moreover, these countries have also increased the usage of electricity. A substantial increase in the demand for electricity impacts the economic development of GCC countries. The study has considered a quantitative method using secondary data to address the research objective. The data for electricity consumption, energy use, and oil prices were obtained from the World Development Indicators website from 2010 to 2021. The countries include Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait. The data obtained were empirically analyzed using the system-GMM approach as it was identified to be a more robust estimation model controlling for issues such as autocorrelation and endogeneity. The results obtained from the system-GMM indicated that electricity consumption and oil prices positively impact the GDP of GCC countries. At the same time, energy use hurts the GDP. Therefore, the research findings imply that electricity consumption and oil prices significantly contribute to the growth of the GCC countries.
