Atık Yağ Rafinasyon Tesisleri için Saha Çalışmasına Dayalı Atık Üretim Faktörlerinin Geliştirilmesi, Proses ve Proses Dışı Atık Yönetiminin Değerlendirilmesi
Authors: Pelitli Volkan , Köroğlu Hansu Julide
Published: November 2024

Atıkların etkin ve verimli yönetiminde 4R (azalt, yeniden kullan, geri dönüştür ve geri kazan) uygulamaları da dahil olmak üzere iyileştirmeler yapılabilmesi amacıyla atık üretimine ilişkin doğru ve gerçekçi verilere ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Ancak atık istatistiklerinde sektörel bazlı atık miktarlarının tahmin edilebilmesi için hala günümüzde detay veriler bulunmaması nedeniyle uygun olmayan atık üretim faktörleri farklı sektörler için kullanılmakta ve bu durumda gerçekçi olmayan sonuçlar elde edilmektedir. Bu sebeple bölgesel veya ülke genelinde sektörel bazlı atık oluşumları için geçerli olabilecek, saha bazlı atık üretim faktörlerinin geliştirilmesine ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Çevresel ve ekonomik açıdan büyük öneme sahip atık yağ rafinasyon sektörü için de oluşan atık miktarlarının doğru tahmin edilmesi; toplama, işleme ve bertaraf sistemlerinin planlanabilmesi için oldukça önemlidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı da ülkemizde sayıları hızla artan atık yağ rafinasyon tesislerinden kaynaklanabilecek, insan ve çevreye ciddi zarar verme potansiyeline sahip (H3B-alevlenir, H13-hassaslaştırıcı ve H14-ekotoksik) proses ve proses dışı atıklar için atık üretim faktörlerinin geliştirilmesi ve atıkların “Atık Yönetimi Yönetmeliği” kapsamında değerlendirilmesidir. Bu kapsamda atık üretiminin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla 10 adet atık yağ rafinasyon tesisi saha araştırması ve tesise özel mühendislik analizleriyle incelenmiştir (mevzuat inceleme, lisanslama ve atık nitelik belirleme). Saha çalışmalarına dayalı gerçekleştirilen hesaplamalar, en yüksek atık üretim faktörlerinin kilogram atık yağ başına sırasıyla; 0,0072-0,0402, 0,0069-0,0404 ve 0,0310 kg ile asit katranlarında (19 11 02*), fiziksel ve kimyasal işlemlerden kaynaklanan tehlikeli maddeler içeren çamurlar (19 02 05*) ve saha içi atıksu arıtımından kaynaklanan tehlikeli maddeler içeren çamurlarda (19 11 05*) olduğunu göstermiştir. Bu atıklar yeniden proses edilerek yeni ürünlerin üretiminde kullanılabilecek geri dönüştürülebilir tipte atıklardır. Stratejik açıdan oldukça önemli olan bu bilgi, atık yağların rafine edilmesinden elde edilen kazanımları artırmak için büyük bir fırsat sunmaktadır. Ancak döngüsel ekonominin tam olarak uygulanması için hala uzun bir yol bulunmaktadır. Sonuç olarak geliştirilen atık üretim faktörleri atık yönetimine temel teşkil edecek olup, sektörden kaynaklanabilecek yıllık atık miktarlarının izlenmesi ve tahmin edilmesine yardımcı olarak, yetkililer için karar destek mekanizması oluşturulmasına önemli katkılar sağlayacaktır. Bununla birlikte, atık yağ rafinasyon tesislerinde oluşan atık türleri ve atık miktarlarının ilk kez bu çalışma ile ortaya konduğunun da altı çizilmelidir.

Authors: Pepe Yasemin
Published: November 2024

Nikel oksit (NiO) kompozit filmlerin doğrusal olmayan soğurma (NA) ve optik sınırlama davranışına NiO konsantrasyonun ve giriş ışık şiddetinin etkisi araştırılmıştır. Doğrusal optik ölçüm sonuçları NiO konsantrasyonu arttıkça band aralığı içerisindeki yerelleşmiş kusur seviyelerinin arttığını ortaya çıkarmıştır. Kompozit filmlerin NA ve optik sınırlama davranışlarını ortaya çıkarmak için açık yarık Z-tarama deneyleri 532 nm dalga boylu lazer ışığı kullanılarak farklı giriş ışık şiddetleri altında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yüksek NiO konsantrasyonuna sahip olan kompozit film en güçlü NA davranışı göstermekle birlikte artan giriş ışık şiddeti ile NA davranışı daha da güçlenmiştir. En güçlü NA davranışının en yüksek katkılama konsantrasyonunda elde edilmesi katkılamanın artmasıyla artan kusur seviyelerinin NA’ya katkıda bulunan NA mekanizmalarını desteklemesine atfedilmiştir. En küçük optik sınırlama eşik şiddet değerli en güçlü optik sınırlama davranışı en yüksek NiO konsantrasyonlu kompozit film için elde edilmiştir. Yüksek doğrusal geçirgenlik, güçlü NA ve düşük optik sınırlama eşik şiddet değerine sahip olan NiO_20% kompozit filmler görünür bölgede etkin optik sınırlayıcı olarak kullanılmaya aday olabilirler.
Vanilla’s Chemistry

Published: November 2024

Among Orchidaceae, only vanilla (Vanilla planifolia Andr.) is farmed for human consumption. Mexico gave this plant to the
world as a gift, and it has been utilized for many things over the years. This crop's characteristic perfume is not present in the green pod; instead, it develops during the curing process, which varies based on the nation and growing region. Flavor and scent are the two most prominent fragrant qualities that emerge from cured vanilla pods. Over time, vanillin has become indispensable for usage in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries as well as in medicine. Owing to the expensive price of genuine vanilla, different methods have been used to create vanillin, which is the primary molecule present in vanilla extracts or concentrates made by employing microbial cultures in a variety of chemical and microbiological procedures. The vanilla industry is one of many agro-industries and industries that produce garbage. Since the composition of vanilla waste (residues or by-products) has not been well investigated, it offers an intriguing avenue for research and potential high-value
molecule production.

Authors: Fauzan Muhammad , Syukriyadin Syukriyadin , Helta Fahri , Syahrizal Syahrizal , Alfisyahrin Alfisyahrin
Published: November 2024

Vertical farming uses soil-less methods, either indoors or outdoors, such as aeroponics or hydroponics. Indoor setups include insulated structures, lighting, cooling, and CO2 supply. Unlike outdoor systems that rely on sunlight, indoor farming uses a light-emitting diode (LED), incandescent, or fluorescent lamp. However, the constant light intensity of the lamps can inhibit plant growth, so a light regulation method is needed, one of which uses the PWM method. This study aims to compare the growth rate of microgreen Ipomoea reptans Poir using artificial lighting with and without regulated light intensity levels using the PWM method. PWM adjusts the brightness from 65% - 100% during the day. Analysis showed the linear effect of PWM on lamp voltage and power, also improving power efficiency from 16.3 W without PWM to 13.36 W in lamps with PWM. Comparative results showed that PWM control increased leaf area, limb length, leaf number, and wet weight in plants. Meanwhile, the root length of plants with PWM (9.68 cm) is shorter than plants without PWM (9.98 cm). Overall, plant growth with PWM control is better and more efficient.

The laboratory tests conducted on plasma samples from IMIDs patients and healthy controls included measurements of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, malondialdehyde (MDA), total antioxidant status (TAS) and cholinesterase (ChE) activity.

Results

No significant differences were found in gender distribution, age, and body mass index between the IMIDs patients and healthy controls. The majority of patients (69%) received conventional therapy combined with biologic agents, whereas the remaining patients (31%) received only conventional medications. The IMIDs identified among the 29 patients were Behcet’s disease (27.6%), ankylosing spondylitis (24.1%), inflammatory bowel diseases (24.1%), psoriatic arthritis (10.3%), systemic lupus erythematosus (6.9%) and psoriasis (6.9%). Conventional therapy used was mostly azathioprine (44.8%) and methotrexate (17.2%), whereas biological therapy included mostly etanercept (27.6%) and adalimumab (24.1%). The values of CRP, IL-6 and TNF-Į among the IMIDs patients were not significantly different from those of the controls. The oxidative stress biomarker MDA was elevated in IMID patients (2.93 ± 1.106 —mol/L vs. 2.52 ± 0.478) at a p value of 0.064 (though not significant). The TAS level (1.21 ± 0.422 mmol Trolox Equiv./L vs. 1.00 ± 0.338, p = 0.022) and plasma ChE activity (1.18 ± 0.50 ¨ pH/20 min vs. 0.83 ± 0.30, p = 0.001) were significantly higher in IMIDs patients compared to controls.

Conclusions

The data suggest that oxidative stress and changes in plasma ChE activity might be a part of the pathophysiological alterations among IMIDs patients. Therapeutic drug monitoring and its clinical outcome as well as response of IMIDs patients to anti-ChE agents are worth of further in depth exploration and pursuing. They are essential for better diagnosis, treatment, and management of IMIDs.
Centering toric arrangements of maximal rank
Authors: Saini Elia
Published: November 2024

The homotopy type of the complement manifold of a complexified toric arrangement has been investigated by d’Antonio and Delucchi in a paper that shows the minimality of such topological space. In this work we associate to a given toric arrangement a matrix that represents the arrangement over the integers. Then, we consider the family of toric arrangements for which this matrix has maximal rank. Our goal is to prove, by means of basic linear algebra arguments, that the complement manifold of the toric arrangements that belong to this family is diffeomorphic to that of centered toric arrangements and thus it is a minimal topological space, too.
Implementation of physiotherapeutic methods utilizing forces and pressures
Authors: Vrdoljak Ivana , Šipraga Tomislav
Published: November 2024

The field of physics, particularly medical physics, plays a crucial role in physiotherapy and medicine in general. Forces and pressures are crucial factors that physiotherapists and other healthcare professionals consider when treating patients. In physiotherapy, these forces can aid rehabilitation and pose challenges. This paper explains the principles of manual muscle testing (MMT) and its relation to physics, specifically the use of gravitational force to assess the muscle condition of patients. It also explores the effects of physics on the human body, focusing on fluid circulation and the musculoskeletal system. Additionally, the paper discusses how forces and pressures are integrated into therapeutic exercises while comparing concentric and eccentric movements. The role of buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, and water viscosity in hydrotherapy is also covered, as well as the use of electromagnetism in specific therapies, such as electrotherapy, magnetotherapy, and laser treatments. The paper aims to highlight the significant impact of physics on cardiopulmonary functions and to raise awareness among physiotherapists and healthcare professionals about the importance of understanding the role of physics in medical interventions. Educating patients about the effect of applied forces and pressures on therapy outcomes is also a topic addressed, which can ultimately help them perform movements correctly and maintain proper posture.
Economic Theory and Artificial Intelligence: A Cross-model Perspective on Labour Market Dynamics
Authors: Krstic Zivko
Published: November 2024

This study examines the relationship between labour market changes and artificial intelligence, utilising Romer’s Endogenous growth theory, Schumpeter’s Creative destruction, Solow’s Growth model and Becker’s Human capital theory as theoretical frameworks. The purpose of this research is to clarify the multifaceted impacts of artificial intelligence on economic growth, workforce adjustment and the emergence of novel employment trends, focusing specifically on job losses and gains, wage inequalities, and changing skill requirements. Using a structured literature review methodology, the economic implications of artificial intelligence in the labour market were systematically analysed and synthesised. The results suggest that although artificial intelligence significantly enhances productivity and innovation, it has a complex effect on the labour market, causing employment gains in technologically sophisticated industries and losses in sectors prone to automation. The study emphasises strategic policy interventions and pedagogical reforms that maximise the economic benefits of AI while minimising its disruptive effects on employment. Proponents of such policies argue that by cultivating a workforce that is resilient and capable of adjusting to changes driven by artificial intelligence, they can effectively mitigate inequality and safeguard economic stability.
Adapting to the Digital Shift: Skills Development and Workplace Transformation in the Era of Human-Technology Collaboration

Published: November 2024

The explosion of data and its handling has reshaped business priorities and changed conventional decision-making methods. Organisations need to think about how to successfully redesign jobs and ways of working as a fusion, not a compromise, between people and technology to increase the leverage of technology. People and technologies have become intensive collaborators. Analytical thinking is becoming the most sought-after skill, along with creative thinking and other cognitive skills. Openness, flexibility, and agility, along with a high level of motivation and self-awareness, as well as the desire for lifelong learning, are personal characteristics that distinguish a desirable employee. This paper aims to identify the changes that have occurred because of the digitisation of workplaces and the consequent development of skills as the basis of good and quality work. The scientific contribution of this paper is to methodologically explain the changes caused by digitisation and point out the development factors. The methodological paper describes research on the education and investment of human potential skills in a domestic and foreign sample of surveyed Croatian migrants. This research concludes that the respondents believe that everyone individually deserves the most for the development of human potential and that they are not ready to invest in the development of their skills.
Proceedings of the Second Symposium of the Dionysius Circle: “Participationes tripliciter considerari possunt”: The Absolute Notion of Esse in Aquinas’s Commentary on the Divine Names
Authors: Stark Conor
Published: November 2024

In this paper, I argue that, for Aquinas, esse commune is the absolute notion of esse. It is absolute, moreover, precisely in the Avicennian sense insofar as it is the consideration of esse as abstracted from intelligible and material modes of being. First, I clarify Dionysius’s distinction between the two senses of per se theonyms, focusing on the Procline provenance of adverbs like ἀπολύτως and ἀρχηγικῶς in the Divine Names. Second, I defend Aquinas’s interpretation and development of Dionysius’s distinction, higlighting his reliance on Avicenna’s threefold consideratio in his account of per se theonyms as absolute natures. I will conclude with suggestions for further research.

Published: November 2024

Space radiation poses a substantial health risk to humans traveling beyond Earth’s orbit to the Moon and Mars. As microbes come with us to space as model organisms for studying radiation effects, a computational model simulating those effects on microorganisms could enable us to better design and interpret those experiments. Here we present an agent-based model for microbial populations exposed to radiation (AMMPER), which simulates the effects of protons, a major component of deep-space radiation, on budding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) growth. The model combines radiation track structure data from the RITRACKS package with novel algorithms for cell replication, motion, damage, and repair. We demonstrate that AMMPER qualitatively reproduces the effects of 150 MeV proton radiation on growth rate, but not lag time, of wild type and DNA repair mutant yeast strains. The variance in AMMPER’s results is consistent with the variance in experimental results, suggesting that AMMPER can recapitulate the stochasticity of empirical experiments. Finally, we used AMMPER to predict responses to deep space radiation that may be tested in future experiments. A user-friendly, open-source, extendable Python package for studying the relationship between single-particle radiation events and population-level responses, AMMPER can facilitate the basic research necessary to ensure safe and sustainable exploration of deep space.

Introduction

Haemophilia presents challenges in joint pathology assessment, prompting exploration of point-of-care ultrasonography (POC-US) as a diagnostic tool. Aims: The study aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of point-of-care ultrasonography (POC-US) compared to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting synovial hypertrophy, cartilage abnormality, and bony abnormality among people with haemophilia (PWH) treated at Assam Medical College Hospital.

Methods

Forty-two PWH underwent POC-US and MRI for joint assessment. The POC-US and MRI imaging interpretation involved calculating diagnostic accuracy parameters for POC-US and MRI scores. This included sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value.

Results

POC-US demonstrated a sensitivity of around 97% and specificity of 92% for detecting synovial hypertrophy, while showing a sensitivity of 85% and specificity of 100% for bony abnormality. Cartilage abnormality assessment revealed a sensitivity of 55% and specificity of 100%. Knee joint involvement was observed in all patients, with 7% also exhibiting ankle joint pathology. Disease severity distribution showed 57% with severe hemophilia, 24% with moderate, and 19% with mild disease.

Conclusion

Our study highlights the diagnostic potential of POC-US in haemophilia management, particularly in detecting synovial hypertrophy and bony abnormality. Challenges in assessing cartilage abnormality warrant further investigation. These findings contribute to the discourse on POC-US in haemophilia management, emphasising the need for continued research to elucidate its clinical relevance.
