Preces espíritas com linguagem facilitada: uma análise a partir dos postulados bakhtinianos
Authors: Gonçalves Tamiris Machado , Gomes Graziella  Steigleder
Published: October 2024

No presente artigo, são analisadas preces encontradas no último capítulo da obra O Evangelho Segundo o Espiritismo, de autoria de Allan Kardec, publicado pela primeira vez em 1864, na França. Suas traduções mais conservadoras para a língua portuguesa com frequência tendem ao erudito, o que muitas vezes se torna um empecilho para a apropriação de seu conteúdo. Diante dessa dificuldade em potencial, surgiu uma versão “moderna e de fácil leitura”, publicada pela Editora Besouro Box, cuja primeira edição se deu em 2012. Essa nova versão, com linguagem facilitada, dirige-se a um público leitor mais abrangente e diversificado. Nesse sentido, 3 dentre as 84 preces que compõem a coletânea encontrada no Capítulo 28 d’O Evangelho Segundo o Espiritismo foram randomicamente escolhidas como objeto de análise deste estudo. As regularidades encontradas nessa amostra relativamente a estilo, conteúdo temático e construção composicional, conforme postuladas por Bakhtin ([1952-53] 2016b), permitem, sob a perspectiva da teoria dialógica do discurso, identificá-las, se cotejadas com suas contrapartes assim como encontradas nas versões mais tradicionais da obra, enquanto uma atualização do gênero preces. Isso porque elas apresentam alterações no que tange especialmente ao estilo, que é reorganizado a fim de conferir maior proximidade a seus interlocutores via usos de linguagem que contemplam um novo auditório, com necessidades linguísticas renovadas.
As influências do gerencialismo na educação pública de Goiás: uma análise a partir de conceitos de Bakhtin
Authors: Stoffels Fábio , Carvalhaes Wesley Luis , Noleto Sylvana de Oliveira Bernardi
Published: October 2024

Nesta pesquisa, investiga-se, a partir da análise de um pronunciamento da Secretaria de Estado da Educação de Goiás (SEDUC GO) aos gestores escolares, da lei estadual 21.184/21 e do ofício 244/2021, em que medida o discurso gerencial neoliberal, próprio do universo das empresas, está presente na política educacional desse estado. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo que utiliza estratégias de análise documental e de análise da linguagem. Para a análise da linguagem desta investigação, foram utilizados conceitos de Bakhtin (2011), que entende a linguagem como dialogia e os discursos como cruzamentos de ideologias. A intenção dessas análises é investigar e discutir como os conceitos de educação e de trabalho do professor da secretaria e do governo do estado estão ancorados em uma concepção de gestão empresarial da educação. Nesse modelo de administração, a ênfase do processo educativo são os resultados quantitativos em testes pelos quais os profissionais da educação são responsabilizados. A partir da compreensão dessas concepções, será possível também inferir qual é a finalidade da educação presente nesses discursos. Percebeu-se, no pronunciamento da SEDUC GO e na análise dos documentos acima citados, um cruzamento de discursos em que se sobressai o discurso empresarial e materializa-se uma ideologia neoliberal. Verificou-se também, tanto no pronunciamento como nos documentos analisados, a materialização de um discurso empresarial com enfoque nas avaliações, nos resultados e na performance dos servidores.
Uma leitura de O sobrevivente, de Carlos Drummond de Andrade, em tempos de pandemia
Authors: Scorsolini-Comin Fabio
Published: October 2024

O objetivo deste estudo é refletir sobre os possíveis sentidos produzidos a partir da leitura literária do poema “O sobrevivente”, presente na obra “Alguma poesia”, de Carlos Drummond de Andrade, originalmente publicada em 1930. A partir da compreensão do contexto original de produção do poema, a presente análise toma como chave interpretativa a sua leitura e ressonância diante do cenário pandêmico. Para tanto, foram recuperados estudos literários sobre essa obra, cotejando-os a partir de reflexões produzidas ao longo do trânsito pandêmico. No texto, Drummond parte da denúncia acerca da impossibilidade de escrever uma poesia diante de uma humanidade cada vez mais submetida às novas tecnologias que subvertem o cotidiano e do reconhecimento da falibilidade do ser humano. Reconhece, a partir desse movimento, a natureza humana como predatória, tornando o mundo cada vez mais inabitável, paradoxalmente ao aumento exponencial da população. Esse caráter predatório é reavivado a partir dos sentidos produzidos pela leitura desse texto no contexto da pandemia, em que o esfacelamento do ser humano não ocorre dissociado de um modo de produção que solapa tempos, relações e delicadezas. A possibilidade de recuperar a poesia e a emoção mostra-se uma resposta diante de tempos incertos, aproximando os dois contextos de leitura.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF POSITIVISM'S LEGAL THEORY: FROM BENTHAM TO HART
Authors: Julisa Sistyawan Dwanda , Saraswati Retno , Tyesta A.L.W. Lita , Jayawibawa Marcellus , Syaiful Aris Mohammad
Published: October 2024

This paper explores the development of legal positivism from Jeremy Bentham to H.L.A. Hart, focusing on key figures and their contributions to the theory. The primary issue addressed is the evolution of legal positivism as a descriptive and normative theory that distinguishes law from morality. The study aims to trace how Bentham's utilitarian approach laid the foundation for legal positivism, Austin's command theory emphasized law as commands of the sovereign, and Hart's concept of law introduced a more nuanced understanding of primary and secondary rules. A qualitative approach with descriptive analysis involves an in-depth literature review of primary texts and secondary sources. Data includes books, journal articles, and legal documents related to positivist legal theory. The analysis reveals that Bentham's utilitarianism influenced legal frameworks to maximize societal welfare. Austin's command theory underscored the authoritative nature of law, and Hart's rule of recognition provided a framework for legal validity. The findings conclude that while Bentham and Austin's theories emphasized law's coercive power, Hart's contributions offer a more comprehensive view highlighting the interplay between legal rules, societal norms, and the functionality of legal systems in modern contexts.
Abstrak Tulisan ini mengeksplorasi perkembangan positivisme hukum dari Jeremy Bentham hingga H.L.A. Hart dengan fokus pada tokoh-tokoh kunci dan kontribusi mereka terhadap teori ini. Masalah utama yang dibahas adalah evolusi positivisme hukum sebagai teori deskriptif dan normatif yang membedakan hukum dari moralitas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melacak bagaimana pendekatan utilitarian Bentham meletakkan dasar bagi positivisme hukum, teori perintah Austin menekankan hukum sebagai perintah dari penguasa, dan konsep hukum Hart memperkenalkan pemahaman yang lebih mendalam tentang aturan primer dan sekunder. Pendekatan kualitatif dengan analisis deskriptif melibatkan tinjauan literatur mendalam dari teks-teks primer dan sumber-sumber sekunder. Data mencakup buku, artikel jurnal, dan dokumen hukum terkait teori hukum positivis. Analisis mengungkapkan bahwa utilitarianisme Bentham mempengaruhi kerangka hukum untuk memaksimalkan kesejahteraan masyarakat, teori perintah Austin menekankan sifat otoritatif hukum, dan aturan pengakuan Hart menyediakan kerangka kerja untuk validitas hukum. Temuan menyimpulkan bahwa meskipun teori Bentham dan Austin menekankan kekuatan koersif hukum, kontribusi Hart menawarkan pandangan yang lebih komprehensif menyoroti interaksi antara aturan hukum, norma sosial, dan fungsi sistem hukum dalam konteks modern.

Evaluating end-stage cancer patients' preferences for spending their final days at home or in hospital
Authors: Özceylan Gökmen
Published: October 2024

Introduction: This study aimed to explore the preferences of end-stage cancer patients regarding spending their final days at home or in a hospital, focusing on the impact of cancer types and symptoms necessitating palliative care admission during this period.
Methods: The study was conducted with 274 patients diagnosed with end-stage cancer and admitted to the palliative service of Dr. İFC City Hospital in Tekirdağ province. Opinions were collected from all patients while they were fully conscious. The relationships between patients' preferences for their place of death and their age, gender, socioeconomic status, duration of stay in palliative care, admission complaints, and diagnoses were examined. A significance level of p<0.05 was considered statistically meaningful.
Results: Approximately one-third of the participating patients preferred to die at home under home care supervision. It was found that these preferences were not influenced by the patients' age, gender, socioeconomic status, or duration of stay in palliative care but were affected by their cancer diagnoses and symptoms leading to admission. Patients with pancreatic cancer preferred to die in the hospital, while those with prostate and breast cancer were more likely to choose home death.
Conclusion: If a system equipped with an effective planned home care program, managed by a multidisciplinary team in palliative care services, can be provided to meet the needs of patients and caregivers when they approach hospitals in their final stages, it could enable the right group of patients to spend their end-of-life at home, in accordance with their preferences.

Published: October 2024

The aim of this research is to find the best scenario to optimize the queuing system so that it can reduce waiting time during customer service at KFC Pontianak. Queue systems are prevalent in public services. The research employs Quality Function Deployment (QFD) and Discrete Event Simulation (DES) methodologies. Alternatives generated are simulated using ARENA Simulation. 70 respondents participated in the KFC Pontianak customer questionnaire, comprising 48.6% females and 51.4% males aged between 18-45 years. The results of the questionnaire showed that 51.4% of respondents were dissatisfied with the speed of service at KFC Pontianak. Customer needs identified through QFD include service speed, order accuracy, ease of use, customer satisfaction, queue comfort, food quality, and payment integration. Analysis reveals three queue system scenarios, two of which propose improvements. The second scenario involves 2 cashiers and 2 self-service cashiers. Self-service allows customers to order by scanning a QR code integrated with the service provider's application. Arrival type employs an exponential distribution with an average of 61 seconds, unlimited max arrival, and first creation with a value of 0. In self-service, there is a value difference of 1 and a standard deviation of 0.2. Simulation results indicate that 51 customers choose cashier 1, 41 choose cashier 2, 39 opt for self-service cashier 1, and 53 prefer self-service cashier 2. The total successfully served customers are 94, with a success rate of 51%. In the third scenario involved 4 self-service cashiers only, the values of 1 and standard deviation of 0.2. The total number of successfully served customers is 173, with a success rate of 80%. In conclusion, this research offers valuable insights for optimizing KFC Pontianak's queue system, addressing customer dissatisfaction with service speed. The proposed scenarios, especially those involving self-service options, demonstrate potential improvements in customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.

The deliberate release of a non-native species amplifies zoonotic disease risk via spillback
Authors: Michels Emile , Hansford Kayleigh , Perkins Sarah , McDonald Robbie , Medlock Jolyon , Tschirren Barbara
Published: October 2024

Spillback – where non-native species increase the prevalence of native
pathogens – is an important mechanism by which non-natives species may
contribute to the emergence of zoonoses. However, spillback is rarely
directly demonstrated because it is difficult to disentangle from
confounding factors which correlate with non-native species abundance
and native pathogen prevalence. Here, we capitalise on 25 independent,
quasi-experimental releases of non-native pheasants (Phasianus
colchicus) to compare vector abundance and native pathogen prevalence
between sites with similar local conditions but different non-native
densities. Questing adult (but not nymph) Ixodes ricinus were more
abundant in woods where pheasants are released compared to control
woods, and Borrelia sp. (the causative agent of Lyme disease) prevalence
in questing nymphs and adults was 2.5 times higher, with a particularly
strong effect on Borrelia garinii. This work provides direct evidence
that non-native species can amplify zoonotic pathogens via spillback in
an ecologically meaningful context.

Published: October 2024

Introduction. The adverse side effects of therapy, combined with cancer
symptoms, can significantly impact the functional ability of patients. By
assessing fall risks in patients undergoing chemotherapy and implementing
preventive interventions, we can enhance the quality of life of these
individuals. The study aimed to identify risk factors and evaluate the risk
of falls in oncology patients receiving chemotherapy at a Day Hospital.
Material and Methods. The study was conducted at the General Hospital in
Vrbas and the Oncology Institute of Vojvodina. Patients were divided into
two age groups. The instruments used for assessment included the Morse Fall
Scale, Timed Up and Go Test, Berg Balance Scale, and Mini-Mental State
Examination. The collected data were statistically analyzed. Results. The
first group of patients had an average age below 65, while the second
group?s average age was above 65. Both groups had a higher portion of female
patients. There were significant differences in cancer localization: the
first group primarily had breast cancer, whereas the second group had a
higher prevalence of colon cancer. Older patients took longer to complete
the Timed Up and Go Test. In the older group, age was significantly
associated with Timed Up and Go Test and Berg Balance Scale scores.
Additionally, there was a notable correlation between Mini-Mental State
Examination scores and Berg Balance Scale scores. Conclusion. Age, reduced
physical ability and balance, and cognitive deficits are significant risk
factors for falls in older oncology patients receiving chemotherapy in the
Day Hospital setting.
The significance of early detection of parathyroid adenoma
Authors: Stojkovic Eva , Stefanovic Tanja
Published: October 2024

Introduction. Parathyroid adenoma is the leading cause of primary
hyperparathyroidism in 85% of cases, followed by multiglandular hyperplasia
(15%) and parathyroid carcinoma (1%). Clinical complications can manifest in
the bones, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, heart, and can also lead to
mental disorders and altered consciousness, including coma. Surgical
intervention is the primary treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism.
However, for patients who do not meet the criteria for surgery or choose to
avoid it, medical management is provided. Case Report. A 52-year-old female
patient presented in late 2019 with a visible, firm, irregular mass above
the right clavicle. Initial bone marker tests raised suspicion of a
parathyroid adenoma. The COVID-19 pandemic caused delays in further
specialized examinations and postponed surgical treatment. The referring
physician scheduled a parathyroid scintigraphy while awaiting an
endocrinologist?s evaluation. Surgery was eventually performed in March
2023. Despite consistently elevated parathyroid hormone and ionized calcium
levels, the patient avoided potential complications due to continuous
monitoring by her referring physician. Conclusion. Early diagnosis of
parathyroid adenoma reduces the risk of complications and improves the
quality of life for patients.

The experiment was designed for intercropping of one mungbean high yielding varieties viz., IPM 205-7 (Virat) sown in June with Gmelina arborea. The treatments for gamhar and mungbean are as follows: T1-Vigna radiata sole crop; T2-Gmelina arborea sole tree (5×5 m2); T3-Gmelina arborea sole tree (5×4 m2); T4-Gmelina arborea sole tree (5×3 m2); T5-Gmelina arborea (5×5 m2)+Vigna radiata; T6-Gmelina arborea (5×4 m2)+Vigna radiata; T7-Gmelina arborea (5×3 m2)+Vigna radiata. Experiment was designed in randomized block design (RBD) with seven treatments and five replications. The effect of different spacing patterns viz., S1-5×5 m2, S2-5×4 m2, S3-5×3 m2 in 2 year old Gamhar plantation with seven treatments combinations on mungbean was studied at the Forestry Research Farm, RLBCAU, Jhansi. The maximum number of branches plant-1 (8.04), number of trifoliate leaves plant-1 (11.96), number of seeds pod-1 (12.32), grain yield (0.73 t ha-1) and straw yield (2.13 t ha-1) was recorded in mungbean sole crop. The plant height (62.51 cm) was recorded highest in mungbean intercrop in 5×3 m2 gamhar spacing. The maximum girth (27.38 cm) of trees was recorded in 5×5 m2 gamhar spacing mungbean intercrop. The tree height (6.01 m) and benefit cost ratio (2.67) was observed maximum in 5×4 m2 gamhar spacing with mungbean intercrop.
Gender Differences in Educational Leadership and Values: Adding Insights from a Neuro-Social Perspective
Authors: Lazaridou Angeliki
Published: October 2024

Issues of gender, leadership, and values have occupied the minds of researchers in educational administration and leadership for decades. Breakthroughs in neuroscience and neuroepigenetics have produced numerous insights into the complex operations and influences in the human brain between men and women. Taking into account some of these differences, in this chapter, I will revisit the literature on leadership, gender, and values with a two-fold purpose: one, to review understandings that have accumulated, and two, to add a new perspective for re-examining these understandings. At first, I review existing theories of gender, leadership, and values, paying attention to the different modes of operation between men and women to recapture the conclusions these lines of research have produced. Then, I turn my attention to recent findings from neuroscience and neuroepigenetics as a new lens through which these reported differences can be illuminated. My thesis in this conceptual paper is to raise awareness of this emerging line of research and its potential to shed more light into the neural dark of our conceptions about gender and women’s ways of leading in education with significant implications for educators and educational leaders.

Published: October 2024

Islamic universities are a fragmentation of the progress of civilization that occurred during the heyday of Islam in Andalusia and Europe. The purpose of this study is to narrate the development of the Islamic world of science until the emergence of an Islamic university in the digital era. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach. In the process of collecting data, researchers used literature review and documentation. In the era of the industrial revolution 4.0 must be able to start using strategies and also directed and measurable planning. As happened in the era of the industrial revolution 1.0, the library was still very manual in terms of services and archiving user data which began using books, borrower bags, and traditional search tools using classification numbers that were directly searched on the shelves. Furthermore, in the 2.0 era the library has started using an automation system that makes it easier to find the information needed by users, while in the 3.0 era the library has started working together to form a database until it continues until the 4.0 era the library is based on user empowerment. When viewed with the development of libraries today, especially college libraries, of course they already have policies in facing the industrial revolution era. The college library has a background as a broad reference source and has collections in printed and electronic form to support teaching, learning and research activities. One of them is by following this revolutionary era which is very beneficial for other university libraries, this is done to make it easier for the community or students to find the information they need, not only that, through this technological development, the library can also establish information and communication with other libraries widely so that it has a positive impact on increasing library accreditation.

Published: October 2024

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os contextos sócio espaciais e as fundamentações teóricas que originaram as Políticas de Desenvolvimento dos Territórios Rurais no Brasil e no México. Para tanto, a abordagem metodológica utilizada foi o materialismo histórico-dialético, com ênfase na tradição marxista latino-americana. O levantamento de dados foi realizado por meio de dados secundários, em fontes bibliográficas e documentais. Com base nas experiências analisadas e na literatura especializada na temática, pode-se afirmar que alguns elementos e diretrizes são fundamentais para avançar neste processo na América Latina. Um destes elementos é o reconhecimento de que quando tratamos de desenvolvimento, devemos ter presente que este é multidimensional, e não supervalorizar a dimensão econômica, ou seja, reconhecer as múltiplas dimensões (ambiental, social, cultural, econômica, política e institucional) de acordo com a realidade, com a identidade e as prioridades de cada território. Concluiu-se por meio dos resultados do presente trabalho que a diversidade regional deve ser analisada e identificada de acordo com seu contexto histórico e por meio do reconhecimento das dinâmicas multidimensionais resultantes do uso do território pelos sujeitos que ali vivem.

L’enseignement des faits religieux dans le cadre laïque en France : ambitions et limites de l’approche culturelle
Authors: Saint-Martin Isabelle
Published: October 2024

Im Rahmen der französischen Laizität hat Religionsunterricht an öffentlichen Schulen außer im Elsass und im Departement Moselle keinen Platz, was jedoch nicht bedeutet, dass jegliches Wissen über Religionen ausgeschlossen ist. Seit den 1980er Jahren steht diese Frage wieder zur Diskussion. Im Anschluss an verschiedene Gutachten und vor allem an dasjenige, das Régis Debray im Jahre 2002 vorgelegt hat, wird das Thema Religionen gezielt in unterschiedlichen Fächern behandelt, was Kritik und Kontroversen hervorgerufen hat. Es geht hier darum, diesen in die Lehrpläne aufgenommenen, kulturellen Ansatz sowohl von der konfessionellen Vermittlung einer religiösen Kultur als auch von Forderungen und Belangen, die das Schulleben betreffen, zu unterscheiden, was gleichzeitig Ambitionen und Grenzen eines solchen Ansatzes veranschaulicht. Eine stärkere Berücksichtigung der religiösen Bezüge im Kunstgeschichtsunterricht könnte Vorteile bieten, die bisher ungleich genutzt wurden.

Dans le cadre de la laïcité française, une éducation religieuse à caractère confessionnel n’a pas sa place à l’école publique (sauf dans le cas particulier de l’Alsace et de la Moselle), mais cela ne signifie pas que toute connaissance sur les religions soit exclue. Depuis les années quatre-vingt, ce sujet a resurgi dans les débats et, à la suite de plusieurs rapports, dont celui de Régis Debray en 2002, un enseignement des faits religieux a pris place au sein des disciplines scolaires non sans susciter des critiques diverses. Distinguer cette approche culturelle qui passe par les programmes tant d’une forme de culture religieuse catéchétique que des revendications touchant à la vie scolaire en précise les ambitions et les limites. Cela conduit également à évoquer certains atouts, encore inégalement exploités, que pourrait offrir une plus grande prise en compte des faits religieux à travers l’histoire des arts.

Under French secularism, religious education of a denominational nature has no place in state schools (except in the special case of Alsace and Moselle), but this does not mean that all knowledge of religions is excluded. Since the eighties, this subject has re-emerged in the debates and, following several reports, including that of Régis Debray in 2002, teaching about religion has been including in the school curriculum, although this has not been without its critics. Distinguishing this cultural approach in the curriculum from both a form of catechetical religious culture and demands relating to school life clarifies its ambitions and limits. This also leads us to mention certain advantages, which are still unevenly exploited, that could be offered by taking greater account of religious facts through the history of the arts.

Although modern digital technologies have successfully replaced many traditional methods of communication, including the use of braille for the blind and visually impaired, braille remains an important element of literacy for this vulnerable group. To accurately recognise the braille dots that make up the standardised characters, it is important that they have the correct dimensions, both in size and height. In this study, the reproduction quality of braille dots on self-adhesive labels was analysed. The elements were printed using the UV inkjet printing technique with a different number of passes (layers) to define and analyse the changes that occur with an increasing number of UV varnish layers. The samples were printed with 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 layers of UV varnish. The image analysis with the scanning electron microscope (SEM) focussed on the change in the diameter of the dots. The braille dots show deviations from the digitally defined diameter in the graphic prepress (1.60 mm), especially in the horizontal direction, which is due to the spreading of the varnish and the movement of the print head. The first layers of UV varnish behave differently depending on the substrate, while the application of further layers reduces deformation and improves dot formation. Lifting the print head led to a stronger spreading and deformation of the dots in both samples.

This study investigates the effectiveness of two outreach strategies, reciprocation and conventional, on the response times of Instagram pet influencers when collaborating with a small business. Drawing from the principle of reciprocity, we aimed to determine whether offering upfront favours in the form of digital pet portraits leads to faster influencer posting times. A sample of 232 Instagram pet influencers was selected, with 203 approached using a conventional strategy and 29 using a reciprocation outreach strategy where the portrait was provided upfront. The key parameter analyzed was the time it took influencers to post the provided portrait on their Instagram feed after agreeing to collaborate. Results show that the reciprocation approach prompted faster and more consistent responses, with all influencers posting within five days, compared to 83.33% of conventional outreach participants posting in the first week. These findings suggest that upfront favours may encourage quicker influencer responses, offering insights into more effective influencer outreach strategies for small businesses.

AI models are being used and further developed daily. In graphic design, one of the most common uses is background removal from product images. This paper analyzes the effectiveness of background removal for common products by varying the depth of field. Tests were conducted using two AI background removal models on products of different shapes and textures, with both uniform and structured backgrounds. The results indicate that a shallow depth of field can be beneficial for background removal when the background is not uniform. Conversely, for a uniform background, a larger depth of field can aid AI, especially when the product is larger in size

Facial images are a very common element on the World Wide Web and in mobile applications. With the widespread use of eye-tracking systems, research in the field of viewing and memorizing facial images has greatly expanded. The main issue in analyzing facial images is to understand the way of viewing, memorizing and recognizing. Most of the research is done for the frontal facial images, but we focused on profile facial images. One of the most widely used methods for determining memorization and recognition of facial images is the internal facial feature method. However, in our research we have focused on the new heatmap method. In this method, the results of area, perimeter and circularity of heatmaps are analyzed. For the whole research we used a standardized memory test comprising two phases: an observation test and a recognition test. To analyze the influence of time on recognition success, we set four display times of facial images in observation test (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s). The results show that the recognition success increases with increasing display time of the facial images in the observation test. The turning point occurs at a display time of 4 seconds, as the recognition performance in the 8s test is almost the same as in the 4s test. The heatmap analysis method shows an increase in the area and perimeter of the heatmap areas up to the 4s test, after which both values remain practically the same. After that, both values remain practically the same. At this point, the circularity of the viewing areas also no longer decreases and is the same in the 8s test as in the 4s test. The results of the heatmap analysis are therefore in good correlation with the results of the facial recognition and proved the usefulness of heatmap analysis for research into the observation and recognition of facial images.
RECOVERY OF SILVER FROM PRINTED ELECTRONIC WASTE

Published: October 2024

Printed electronics are preferred over traditional circuit systems in various fields such as energy, healthcare, packaging, and automotive due to reasons like lower silver ink usage, thinner product production, and suitability for mass production. The most commonly used type of ink in printed electronics is silver-based ink. Due to silver's high conductivity and the conductivity of its oxide, it is the most widely used material in printed electronic inks compared to other organic materials and metals. The growing needs of developing technology and the use of silver in other industries continually drive up its price. Considering environmental issues, the recovery of silver from printed electronics has become quite significant. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of two different methods in the recovery of silver ink printed on textile material. In the study, commercial silver paste inks were printed on textile material using screen printing. After drying, the printed samples were aged for two years, and then the silver recovery process was applied. Two methods were employed for silver recovery. In the first method, the silver-printed sample was burned at high temperature, and the silver in the resulting ash was dissolved in nitric acid. In the second method, the silver-printed sample was cut into small pieces and treated with nitric acid without burning to dissolve the silver. The amount of silver dissolved in the solution in both methods was determined using atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Additionally, the effects of nitric acid concentration on recovery were investigated. As a result, it was determined that the amount of silver recovered by the incineration method was higher, but the energy cost was also higher compared to the other method.
