How to Reduce the Risks of Operating a Ferrous Scrap Metal Logger or Baler
Heavy machinery – especially landfill machinery specifically designed to crush and compact like ferrous scrap metal loggers or balers – will always pose a number of safety hazards, ranging from electrical malfunctions or mishandling to common physical risks like falls, impacts, and crushing. Additionally, lesser-known risks related to ergonomics, toxic materials, and operational ...

Oil Level Sensors: Monitoring Oil-Water Interface for Separation Efficiency
Overview In the extraction of petroleum (oil) by hydraulic fracturing, oil flows to the well emulsified with fracturing water. As part of the extraction operation, oil and water are separated at the well site. Separation also occurs at the refinery, where crude oil from the well site contains water that must be removed before refining. Separation vessels or separators are used for the process, ...

The Crucial Need for Measuring Nitrous Oxide (N2O) Emissions from Wastewater Treatment Plants
Wastewater treatment plants are indispensable infrastructures for maintaining public health and environmental quality. However, these facilities are not only responsible for purifying water; they also emit significant amounts of greenhouse gases, including nitrous oxide (N2O). Despite its potency as a greenhouse gas, the monitoring and measurement of N2O emissions from wastewater treatment plants ...

Engineering effective cooperation and communication: a bottom-up approach
Current research in crisis management research tends to overemphasise formal organisational modes and does not adequately support ground level teams. Following a case study, we identify five main problems experienced by rescuers at the start of an emergency intervention. The work shows a clear need to focus research on ground level communication and local coordination activities and to develop ...

Comparison of the pour, spread, and drop plate methods for enumeration of Rhizobium spp. in inoculants made from presterilized peat
Inoculants prepared with presterilized peat were enumerated by the pour, spread, and drop plate techniques. Results indicated that the three plating methods were interchangeable. The drop plate method was preferred because of its economy in materials and ...

Disrupting vesicular trafficking at the endosome attenuates transcriptional activation by Gcn4
The late endosome (MVB) plays a key role in coordinating vesicular transport of proteins between the Golgi complex, vacuole/lysosome, and plasma membrane. We found that deleting multiple genes involved in vesicle fusion at the MVB (class C/D vps mutations) impairs transcriptional activation by Gcn4, a global regulator of amino acid biosynthetic genes, by decreasing the ability of chromatin-bound ...

An orientation for a green economics?
This paper argues that any successful project in economics will need to adopt a philosophical orientation that is rather different to that of the current mathematical mainstream. In particular, it argues that explicit, systematic and sustained ontological analysis is required. The possibilities and limits of ontology are elaborated. The paper also sets out the explicit ontological conception that ...
