Authors: Saad Nadeem Saad Nadeem , Sajid Muhbat Sajid Muhbat , Kamran Zakaria and Ghulam Mustafa Kamran Zakaria and Ghulam Mustafa
Published: June 2024

Worldwide, the broad usage of plastic has resulted in the massive production of plastic pollution. In this work, it was demonstrated that municipal plastic waste could be converted into valuable liquid products. This study shows the catalytic and non-catalytic pyrolysis of low-density polyethylene (LDPE), polypropylene (PP), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Pyrolysis was carried out in the absence of Oxygen, and three types of fractions: gas, liquid, and solid residues were obtained. The proportions of liquid or gas residue depend on the operating conditions such as temperature and the type of catalyst. The product obtained was then characterized through ASTM D-97, ASTM D-86, ASTM D-4294, Cloud Point, Conradson Carbon Residue, FTIR Analysis, ASTM D-611, Density and Specific Gravity. The use of catalysts showed more quantity of lower boiling points products due to further cracking of carbon chains and pour points decrease was also observed generally with the use of catalyst specially by using bentonite. A decrease in Pour Point indicated a decrease in paraffin content, therefore, reducing wax content, and so it indicated better flow properties at lower temperatures. Pour point and viscosity observed were interconnected with each other, sample having high pour points had high viscosity, hence showing the flowing ability of the liquid. Also, the Sulphur contents of all the samples falling under Euro II and Euro II category. C-Stretching, C=Stretching and C-Bending bonds were noted using the FTIR analysis. One of the important purposes of this study was to convert the waxes obtained from thermal pyrolysis of HDPE and LDPE to higher chain hydrocarbons, which was achieved by using bentonite as the catalyst and also flowing properties of the liquid improved by using the catalyst. HDPE with bentonite gave the highest percent of liquid fuel (75.15%) obtained which in turn shows the best result obtained through all our experiments.

Este trabalho objetiva discutir as relações entre educação e questões étnico-raciais, tendo por foco o que tem se denominado de Educação Antirracista. A pesquisa se pauta numa abordagem qualitativa e faz uso do método de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, confrontando a literatura pertinente com os documentos elaborados pelo Ministério da Educação (MEC), a exemplo da Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC). O referencial teórico utilizado é o materialismo histórico-dialético, o qual permite identificar as o contraste entre as classes e que determinam os modos de segregação decorrentes das relações presentes na sociedade. Como resultados, verificam-se as contradições históricas que têm sido alteradas por políticas afirmativas de valorização da cultura negra. Mas, ainda, persistem desigualdades estruturais que restringem as oportunidades e mantém a perpetuação do racismo.
Economic instruments for water conservation: Charging for water use and the Pigouvian tax for mitigating water pollution
Authors: Negreiros de Medeiros Maria das Graças , Lausanne Fontgalland Isabel
Published: June 2024

This paper presents an analysis of the economic instruments applied to water conservation, with a focus on charging for water use and the Pigouvian tax, and also addresses the synergistic integration of these instruments with other water management policies, involving a holistic approach to water conservation. In addition, the challenges in implementing these mechanisms are discussed, including political resistance and issues of social constraints. Methodologically, an interdisciplinary approach was adopted, combined with quantitative and qualitative analysis, followed by evaluation and representative case studies from different geographical and economic contexts. It is clear that the understanding and application of economic instruments in water conservation provides a robust theoretical framework and empirical evidence to support the effectiveness of charging for water use and the Pigouvian tax, which is crucial for promoting sustainable water resource management and mitigating water pollution on a global scale. In Brazil, charging for water use plays a crucial role in promoting the sustainable management of water resources, in line with principles of equity, efficiency and socio-environmental responsibility. However, its effectiveness depends on integration with other management strategies and the active involvement of all sectors of society.
A multi-criteria analysis for the case of carriers having clear visibility into future demand for their freight delivery services
Authors: Haughton Michael , Amini Alireza
Published: June 2024

Carriers providing truckload freight delivery services can find value in having visibility into future demand for their services to deliver shipments (a.k.a. loads). In the extant literature, the predicted value of this visibility is improved profitability for carriers. We extend this literature by showing that profit is not the only criterion for assessing this visibility (termed future load visibility (FLV) herein). Through extensive computational experiments, we model the effects of FLV on carrier profits as well as on three other criteria that matter to other stakeholders in freight transport ecosystems: (i) ecological consequences of freight transport; (ii) customer service for freight consignors/consignees; (iii) prices that consignors pay for freight delivery. In addition to providing a multi-criteria analysis of FLV, another major novelty of our work is in showing that the level of inter-carrier competition factors into how FLV affects the various criteria. A particularly significant insight from our investigation of situations involving such competition is the seemingly paradoxical finding that carriers’ FLV possession can sometimes impede better outcomes on non-profit criteria. This and other findings yield the paper’s central conclusion that while the decision to acquire FLV is more evidently justified on the profit criterion, it is not an unequivocally optimal decision when non-profit criteria are considered.

Energy Saving Via Accurate Computation of Crude Flow Measurement and Calculations
Authors: Siddiq Hisham I.
Published: June 2024

Oil industry involves transporting crude oil using pipelines for long distances. One of the major losses factors in this industry is the inaccurate flow calculations. The flow is calculated by pressure differential measurement between two adjacent pumping stations. In addition, there are flow counters at the discharge end of the pipeline. A multi-pumping station oil pipeline, the subject of this case study these two methods seem not to give the same result any more. That’s because of the lack of effective flow factors updating, and the very slow or even no response to sudden unexpected changes in pressure differential in pipeline sections.
This paper shows the tremendous effect of these factors and its impact to continuous pumping with proposed empirical formula for updating, for minimal calculation errors and hence related losses.

Authors: Abdullah Rafea A. , Ismael Maher , Sadoon Ahmed , Ahmed Masara , Alameri Reyam , Abdulhameed Maysaa A.
Published: June 2024

The Middle Eocene, shallow, dolomitic, high salinity aquifer has significant importance as the main source of injection water at the present time in order to maintain reservoir pressure above the bubble point in maturing oil fields in southern Iraq until other sources of injection water become available. Therefore, in this study, the Dammam aquifer was studied in detail by integrating all available data, including 3D seismic, well information, well logs, and core data.
A regional aquifer static model has been constructed to better understand subsurface geology and in order to be ready to be used in the construction of a sophisticated dynamic model to predict whether the Dammam aquifer can supply enough water for injection or not. More than 184 wells have been used in the present study. The structural framework was built according to 3D seismic cube and well tops. The average thickness is about 235 mm. In order to understand the lateral and vertical connectivity, a facies model was created in addition to the porosity and permeability models with input from the core and a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) log.
According to the facies change, the Dammam aquifer has been divided from bottom to top into five units (MD50, MD100, MD200, MD300, and MD400). The top of the Dammam formation varies from 700m in the southeast to 1000m in the north-west. The porosity in the Dammam formation is very high and varies from 12 to 45 PU, with an average porosity of 29 PU. In order to reduce uncertainty, the study recommends that a new rock core have to be cut, in addition to a number of NMR and Formation Micro Imager (FMI) logs needing to be run into selected wells

Examining the “revisability” benefit of hip resurfacing arthroplasty
Authors: George Jose , Taylor Adam J , Schmalzried Thomas P
Published: June 2024

BACKGROUND

Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is an alternative to total hip arthroplasty (THA) that is typically reserved for young active patients because it preserves bone. However, the benefits of HRA only hold true if conversion THA after failed HRA provides acceptable outcomes.

AIM

To compare patient reported outcomes for conversion THA after HRA failure to primary THA.

METHODS

A retrospective review of 36 patients (37 hips) that underwent conversion THA for failed HRA between October 2006 and May 2019 by a single surgeon was performed. Patient reported outcomes [modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) activity score] were obtained via an email-based responder-anonymous survey. Outcomes were compared to normative data of a primary THA cohort with similar demographics. Subgroup analysis was performed comparing outcomes of conversion THA for adverse local tissue reaction (ALTR) vs all other causes for failure.

RESULTS

The study group had a lower mHHS than the control group (81.7 ± 13.8 vs 90.2 ± 11.6, P < 0.01); however, both groups had similar UCLA activity levels (7.5 ± 2.3 vs 7.2 ± 1.6, P = 0.51). Patients that underwent conversion for non-ATLR causes had similar mHHS (85.2 ± 11.5 vs 90.2 ± 11.6, P = 0.11) and higher UCLA activity levels (8.5 ± 1.8 vs 7.2 ± 1.6, P < 0.01) compared to the control group. Patients that underwent conversion for ATLR had worse mHHS (77.1 ± 14.5 vs 90.2 ± 11.6, P < 0.01) and UCLA activity levels (6.1 ± 2.3 vs 7.2 ± 1.6, P = 0.05) when compared to the control group.

CONCLUSION

Patient outcomes equivalent to primary THA can be achieved following HRA conversion to THA. However, inferior outcomes were demonstrated for ALTR-related HRA failure. Patient selection and perhaps further studies examining alternative HRA bearing surfaces should be considered.

Authors: Li Xiu-Mao , Chen Ze-Hao , Wang Ke-Yi , Chen Jun-Nan , Yao Zhao-Nong , Yao Yu-Hong , Zhou Xiao-Wei , Lin Nong
Published: June 2024

BACKGROUND

Mazabraud’s syndrome (MS) is a rare and slowly progressive benign disease characterized by the concurrent presence of fibrous dysplasia of bone and intramuscular myxoma, and is thought to be associated with mutations of the GNAS gene. To date, only about 100 cases of MS have been reported in the literature, but its standard treatment strategy remains unclear.

CASE SUMMARY

We report two cases of MS in young women who underwent different treatments based on their symptoms and disease manifestations. The first patient, aged 37, received internal fixation and intravenous bisphosphonate for a pathological fracture of the right femoral neck, excision of a right vastus medialis myxoma was subsequently performed for pain control, and asymptomatic psoas myxomas were monitored without surgery. Genetic testing confirmed a GNAS gene mutation in this patient. The second patient, aged 24, underwent right vastus intermedius muscle myxoma resection, and conservative treatment for fibrous dysplasia of the ilium. These patients were followed-up for 17 months and 3 years, respectively, and are now in a stable condition.

CONCLUSION

Various treatments have been selected for MS patients who suffer different symptoms. The main treatment for myxomas is surgical resection, while fibrous dysplasia is selectively treated if the patient experiences pathological fracture or severe pain. However, given the documented instances of malignant transformation of fibrous dysplasia in individuals with MS, close follow-up is necessary.

Examination of harshness of criminal liability in NDPS cases in India:
Authors: Souvik Chatterji Prof , Sadhu Subhajit
Published: June 2024

The Humans Rights Development Programme guidelines states that it shall be ensured that detention cannot be based solely on drug dependence or drug usage. ICCPR upholds that every person has the right to be presumed innocent unless proven guilty. But the NDPS Act in India reverses the onus and shifts the burden to the accused to prove that the acquisition is false. The mandatory presumption of law holding the culpable mental state strictly applies in NDPS law where it affects the right of the accused leading to 90% conviction rate in NDPS cases. The Supreme Court, in the case of Sharifbai v. Abdul Razak1, established that failure of producing the accused before a magistrate within the designated timeframe renders the detention unlawful. Additionally, a detained individual must be informed by the arresting officer of the reasons for their arrest and their right to bail. This ensures that the detained person has the opportunity to seek bail and prepare a defense in a timely manner. In the case of State of Rajasthan v. Balchand alias Baliay2, the Supreme Court emphasized that detention in custody is not necessary if the appearance of the accused can be ensured through other means. The court emphasized the principle that bail, not jail, should be the norm. The paper examines the rationale of providing liability in NDPS cases in India and the way ahead to balance both the menace at the same time the defenses available for alleged offenders alleged to have committed the respective offenses.

A Paradigm for AI Consciousness
Authors:   Symmetry Institute, Johnson Michael
Published: June 2024

How can we create a container for knowledge about AI consciousness? This work introduces a new framework based on physicalism, decoherence, and symmetry. Major arguments include (1) atoms are a more sturdy ontology for grounding consciousness than bits, (2) Wolfram’s ‘branchial space’ is where an object’s true shape lives, (3) electromagnetism is a good proxy for branchial shape, (4) brains and computers have significantly different shapes in branchial space, (5) symmetry considerations will strongly inform a future science of consciousness, and (6) computational efficiency considerations may broadly hedge against “s-risk”.

The global labor market is witnessing a surge in the demand for upskilling, reskilling, and multidisciplinary expertise as workers navigate transitions. As such, scholars shifted their perspective from understanding how one becomes an expert to safeguarding a worker's future position in the labor market. This dissertation increased our understanding regarding the concept of ‘flexpertise’, which describes individual workers' adaptive abilities to meet expertise demands in their careers. We captured this adaptive ability into dynamic process models which describe the mechanisms by which workers can deal with ongoing changes in their working environment. This enables them to stay employable and to meet the needs of their surrounding stakeholders at the same time. The dissertation furthermore outlines what the focus on flexpertise development implies for leaders and HR/D functions, advocating for bundles of ‘renewal practices’ alongside expertise development practices. In conclusion, our research underlines the importance of continuous adaptation in the evolving labor market and raises ethical considerations about the feasibility of everyone becoming a flexpert.

Authors:   National Defence University, Balıkesir, Turkey, Mirgen Çağatay , Tepeli Yusuf
Published: June 2024

Green Bonds are fixed-income securities specifically designed to support climate and environmental projects. The demand for the green bond market is growing every day. Green Bonds are gaining importance as they appeal to environmentally conscious investors and are financial instruments that provide economic benefits. The main motivation of this study is to determine whether energy consumption has an effect on green bond issuance. In this context, the relationship between the green bond issuance amounts of 12 countries, including Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, England and the United States, in the years 2014–2021 and the amount of energy consumption in the same period are analysed by panel data analysis. The findings show that there is a significant relationship between coal, peat and oil shale, oil products, natural gas, renewables and waste, electricity and total energy consumption. In the expected direction there is a linear relationship between sustainable energy resources and the green bond issuance.
Can Conventional Monetary Policy Stimulate Bank Credit? Evidence from a Developing Country
Authors:   Mohammed V University, Rabat, Morocco, Kchikeche Ahmed , El Fakir Rachid , Mafamane Driss
Published: June 2024

The predominance of bank credit in financing the economies of less developed countries is prompting policymakers to stimulate this mode of financing. This study tests the ability of conventional monetary policy to stimulate the supply of bank credit to the private sector in Morocco. Based on the lending channel as a theoretical framework, an analytical framework to explore the conduct of monetary policy and the preconditions for the functioning of this channel was developed. In addition, a test of the impact of monetary policy on credit supply was conducted using bank-level data from a representative sample of the Moroccan banking sector. The results show that demand factors and the quality of potential borrowers are the main drivers of bank credit growth. They also show that monetary policy in Morocco directly affects credit growth. However, no evidence that this impact is mediated through credit supply was provided, indicating that the credit channel is not operational in Morocco. The policy implications of these results are discussed.

Despite the economic and societal benefits of digitalisation and digital transformation, it is necessary to map country's digital conditions and identify the digital divide to formulate an effective strategy. The digital divide should be measured periodically to monitor progress and determine continuous improvement. This paper identifies the current digital divide among provinces in Indonesia. The study uses the hierarchical agglomerative clustering method based on The Indonesian Digital Society Index data from the Ministry of Communication and Informatics. It also analyses some key factors of the digital divide based on data from the Indonesian Bureau of Statistics using the multiple linear regression model. The results show three types of the digital divide across Indonesian provinces related to access, usage, and outcomes of information and communication technology. Gross Regional Domestic Product per capita, Wage/Salary, Proportion of Formal Labor, and Size of the Working-Age Population are identified as factors significantly affecting the digital divide.
