Authors: Hu Tiantian , Liu Huan 
Published: March 2020

Abstract
Background In China, income inequality has raised substantially over the last 40 years, especially after21st century.The rise in inequality in China has received considerable attention in academic field. But existing studies have paid more attention to comparative research on the relationship between household income inequality and consumption inequality, and ignored the impact of social welfare changes on household or overall consumption levels during the same period. Methods In this paper, we present an analysis of the trends in inequality of income and consumption in China from 1998 to 2015.Based on the data of China Health and Nutrition Survey(CHNS),we find that household income and consumption inequality have increased substantially over last 30 years.Utilize the inequality of consumption and social welfare and according to the differences in the composition of household consumption, medical consumption is used as the dividing standard to evaluate the inequality of non-medical consumption. In terms of empirical tests, a mixed-panel ols model was constructed to explore the inequality differences in household consumption under non-medical consumption and medical consumption samples. Results First, in terms of consumption inequality, from 1989 to 2015, Chinese household income inequality and consumption inequality showed an increasing trend. Among them, overall consumption inequality was mainly caused by urban and rural consumption inequality. Second,the results show that in terms of overall social welfare, the deterioration of consumption distribution has replaced the growth of social welfare caused by economic growth, and the estimated results under non-medical consumption inequality are less different from the overall. Third, the results of the panel fixed-effect test show that income inequality is the main positive influence factor on consumption inequality, but participation in medical insurance has a negative impact on urban and rural household consumption inequality,illness has a negative impact on household medical inequality and non-medical consumer inequality. Conclusion The result can provide a solid reference for understanding China's consumption inequality and also political implications for the government to weigh efficiency and fairness.From the perspective of consumption policy interventions, it is necessary to promote government departments to better safeguard the health maintenance of healthy or sub-healthy people through health management policies, and promote the cost protection effect of basic medical insurance policies on unhealthy people.
First-principles modeling of X-ray absorption spectra enlightens the processes of scandium sequestration by iron oxides

AbstractScandium is often associated with iron oxides in the environment. Despite the use of scandium as a geochemical tracer and the existence of world-class supergene deposits, uncertainties on speciation obscure the processes governing its sequestration and concentration. Here, we use first-principles approaches to interpret experimental K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectra of scandium either incorporated in or adsorbed on goethite and hematite, at concentrations relevant for the environment. This modeling helps to interpret the characteristic spectral features, providing key information to determine scandium speciation when associated with iron oxides. We show that scandium is substituted into iron oxides at low concentrations without modifying the crystal structure. When scandium is adsorbed onto iron oxide surfaces, the process occurs through outer-sphere complexation with a reduction in the coordination number of the hydration shell. Considering available X-ray absorption spectra from laterites, the present results confirm that scandium adsorption onto iron oxides is the dominant mechanism of sequestration in these geochemical conditions. This speciation explains efficient scandium recovery through mild metal-lurgical treatments of supergene lateritic ores. The specificities of scandium sorption mechanisms are related to the preservation of adsorbed scandium in million-years old laterites. These results demonstrate the emerging ability to precisely model fine X-ray absorption spectral features of trace metals associated with mineral phases relevant to the environment. It opens new perspectives to accurately determine trace metals speciation from high-resolution spatially resolved X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy in order to constrain the molecular mechanisms controlling their dynamics.
Modelling solar enhanced waste stabilization pond

Published: March 2020

Abstract
Solar enhanced waste stabilization pond (SEWSP) was modeled in this research. In the analysis, SEWSPs of varying sizes, made of metallic tanks with inlet and outlet valves and solar reflectors, were constructed to increase the incident solar intensity. Wastewater samples collected from the inlet and outlet of the SEWSPs were examined for physico-chemical and biological characteristics for a period of twelve (12) months. The parameters examined were temperature, pH, detention time, total suspended solids, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), chemical oxygen demand (COD), algae count, faecal coliforms and E. coli. The efficiencies of the SEWSPs with respect to these parameters fluctuated with depth, location of reflectors and variation in width. The SEWSP with a width of 0.2 m whose reflector was installed at the outlet position gave the highest treatment efficiency. The conventional model was modified to account for solar irradiation. The faecal bacteria removal was significantly higher in the enhanced pond than in the conventional pond at 0.10 level of significance. The verification of the conventional model gave a good correlation of r = 0.882 between the measured and calculated Ne/No with a low standard error of s = 0.010, while the irradiated pond gave a correlation and standard error of r = 0.959 and s = 0.012 respectively. The research revealed that with the incorporation of solar radiation in WSPs, a length/ width/depth ratio of 1:0.2:0.2 can be used in the design of SEWSPs for maximum treatment efficiency.
ISO 55001 Certification at EPAL – the pains and the gains
Authors: Capela M. , Santos A. , Luís A. 
Published: March 2020

Abstract
In the second half of the 2000s, EPAL developed an integrated approach to asset management, designed according to the logic of PAS 55. Since then, asset management has been recognized as an invaluable function within the company and the portfolio of measures identified in the above-mentioned integrated approach has been implemented. With the release, in 2014, of ISO 55001, certification of the asset management system was made possible. Given the work already developed towards the deployment of asset management at EPAL, and because this had been based in the PAS 55 philosophy, EPAL was well positioned to obtain the ISO certification. The key challenges regarding the above-mentioned process were associated more with the implementation of the asset management at EPAL, rather than with the certification in itself. Because asset management was already an established practice at EPAL, key benefits of the certification are related to the documentation of such practice, which is something very important that was missing. Preparing for the certification also enabled the redesign of the Corporate Management System in order to meet the ISO and appendix SL requirements, making it more robust. And, of course, ISO 55001 certification became an asset in terms of image and reputation for EPAL!.

Published: March 2020

Abstract
Grit chambers are meant to reduce the impact of inorganic particles on equipment and processes downstream. Despite their important role, characterization and modelling studies of these process units are scarce, leading to a lack of knowledge and suboptimal operation. Thus, this study presents the first dynamic model, based on mass balances and particle settling velocity distributions, for use in a water resource recovery facility (WRRF) simulator for design and optimization of grit removal units.

Authors: Triwibowo Sugeng 
Published: March 2020

Introduction: This paper aims to examine the relationship between the quality of public financial management and corruption in Indonesia. Background Problems: Despite the impressive progress on the quality of public financial management (PFM) after the financial reforms, Indonesia is still struggling to combat corruption. This raises the question of the effectiveness of the public financial reforms that have been carried out in support of the eradication of corruption. Novelty: This study found empirical evidence of a significant long-run and causal relationship between the quality of public financial management and corruption. Research Methods: This study employs panel cointegration and causality analysis with panel data from the Corruption Perception Index (CPI), and audit opinions for the period from 2006 to 2017. Findings/Results: This study found empirical evidence of the existence of a long-run relationship between the quality of public financial management and corruption and can verify the significant causal relationship between them. In the long run, sound public financial management could significantly encourage clean government. Conclusion: The Government of Indonesia (GoI) should continue its commitment to improve the management of public finances. Meanwhile, the Supreme Audit Institution (SAI)[A1] is expected to strengthen its role to prevent and detect corruption, and to continuously enhance its methods and capacity to improve the execution of its duties and authority.

This research was conducted at Hatchery Fishery Laboratory in University of Muhammadiyah Malang on February 15 - March 17, 2018. The purpose of this research was to identify the meat bone meal (MBM) and poltry by-product (PBM) test on granule and the best treatment to the growth and survival rate of Eel (Anguilla bicolor) stadia elver. The method used was experiemental by Completely Randomized Design (RAL) with 3 different treatments on granule composition, P1 (Commercial Granule), P2 (70% Commercial Granule and 30% MBM), P3 (70% Commercial Granule and 30% PBM), and each treatment done repeatedly three times. Furthermore, the data were analyzed by ANAVA and continued with BNT test. The results of this study indicated that the meat bone meal (MBM) and poltry by-product (PBM) test on granule had a significant effect on the absolute growth rate, a very significant effect on DGR, and not significantly different on Eel. The absolute best growth rate was on P2 2.24 ± 0.71. The best DGR was on P1 (5.55 ± 0.33). Based on the research results, it was concluded that feeding the granule based on meat bone meal increased the growth and survival rate, and also could be the substitution granule for Eel ( Anguilla bicolor).

Published: March 2020

There are obstacles in the aquaculture business that is still often facedbyfarmers, one of the challengesisthe high price of commercial feed. Feed as an energy source for growth is a reasonably high-cost component in production that reaches 40-89 %. In the control of food for efficiency, it could be done by the fasting method. This research was aimedtoanalyze the effect of periodic fastedofgiant prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii de Man, 1879) against growth and feed efficiency. This research was conducted at IBAP Installation, Probolinggo District - East Java Province. The experimental method used completely randomized design with five treatments and three replications, such as; P0: feeding without fasting (as control), P1: a-day fasted, a-day feeding, P2: a-day fasted, two-days feeding, P3: a-day fasted, three-day feeding, P4: a-day fasted, four-days feeding, P5: a-day fasted, five-day feeding. The results showed that periodic fasted of M. rosenbergii no significant effect on the daily growth rate, absolute weight growth, and feed efficiency. However, by looking at the rate of growth, thisfasting methodcouldbe used as an alternative to saving feed. The P5 showed the most effective in increasing daily growth rate, absolute weight growth, and effectiveness of giant prawn feeding. The strategy of periodic fasted to increase the production of giant prawns should consider the other supporting factors such as ideal water quality (pH, temperature, and DO), proper stocking density, and feeding periods on schedule.

Internationalization and the Internet: The Case of Canadian Public Policy/Analyse de politiques
Authors: Veall Michael R. 
Published: March 2020

Background Choices facing a Canadian scholarly journal such as Canadian Public Policy/Analyse de politiques (CPP/Adp) include both its degree of Canadian content and its level of internet accessibility.
Analysis The “Canadian-ness” of CPP/Adp handicaps its upward citation score trend but is intrinsic to informing Canadian public policy. Internet open access would not likely boost citation scores but would likely enhance its policy role. Open access hasn large negative revenue implications.
Conclusion and implications CPP/Adp chose not to reapply for the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council Aid to Scholarly Journal program. e revenue loss of meeting the program’s new open access criteria, even with the permitted one-year embargo, was estimated to exceed the prospective grant. e CPP/Adp continues other timely ways to make content internet accessible.Contexte Les choix pour une revue savante canadienne telle que Canadian Public Policy/Analyse de politiques (CPP/Adp) incluent à la fois sa proportion de contenu canadien et son accessibilité sur internet.
Analyse Le caractère canadien de CCP/Adp limite combien on le cite mais est indispensable par ce qu’il contribue à la politique publique canadienne. À ce titre, un libre accès à la revue sur internet ne ferait probablement pas augmenter son indice de citations mais améliorerait son impact sur les politiques. Le libre accès en revanche occasionnerait une baisse de revenus.
Conclusion et implications CPP/Adp a choisi de ne pas se réinscrire au programme Aide aux revues savantes du Conseil de recherches en sciences humaines. CPP/Adp, en rencontrant les nouveaux critères de ce programme pour le libre accès—même avec la période d’embargo de 12 mois permise—perdrait davantage de revenus que le montant probable de la subvention. CPP/Adp a donc recours à d’autres méthodes opportunespour rendre son contenu accessible en ligne.
Ninguém ouviu um soluçar de dor: violência racial na narrativa literária de Nei Lopes.
Authors: Gonçalves Cláudio Carmo

Este artigo trata das relações pessoais e consequentemente raciais assentadas no dogmatismo de poder que faz com haja uma interpretação corrente do juízo correto mas cínico, exposto na ficção narrativa de Rio Negro 50, do escritor carioca Nei Lopes. A narrativa, ao tratar de passagens cotidianas, problematiza o usual e chama a atenção para a invisibilidade negra, bem como a violência simbólica historicamente construída e perpetrada por séculos no imaginário brasileiro.
Financial Reporting Conservatism and Voluntary CSR Disclosure
Authors: Cho Seong-Yeon , Kang Pyung Kyung , Lee Cheol , Park Cheong 
Published: March 2020

SYNOPSIS
This paper examines whether a firm's degree of conservatism in financial reporting is associated with its voluntary nonfinancial corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosures and the stock price reaction to such disclosures. Theoretical and empirical studies find that the amount of voluntary disclosures and their credibility vary depending on the degree of financial reporting conservatism. We expand this line of questioning and find that firms that adopt conservative financial reporting are less likely to disclose CSR information. Further analyses show that the market reaction to a firm's CSR disclosure is reduced when its financial reporting is more conservative. Our evidence suggests that the quantity and quality of CSR disclosures are associated with the degree of accounting conservatism. Therefore, stakeholders should consider a firm's financial reporting policies when interpreting CSR disclosures.
