Biogas production from the perspective of sustainable development
2020
One of the basic aspects of sustainable development strategy involves investments in green technologies, including energy production from renewable sources. Biomass, special organic waste which belongs to “green sources” of energy can be used in the methane fermentation process of biogas production to generate heat and electricity.Biogas power plants have functioned in the Polish energy industry for many years now. On the basis of the data available from Central Statistical Office, in 2014 the ratio of biogas accounted for 7.6% of the structure of primary energy derived from renewable sources in the EU and 2.6% in Poland. An important consideration related to the production of biogas is ass…

Humectabilidad In-Vivo E In-Vitro En Diferentes Materiales De Lentes De Contacto Y Calidad De La Película Lagrimal
2023
Las lentes de contacto han aumentado en popularidad en las últimas cinco décadas como una opción para la corrección de los errores refractivos del ojo, con un estimado de 140 millones de usuarios en todo el mundo. A pesar de la introducción de nuevas tecnologías y materiales de las lentes de contacto, la interrupción y/o “deserción” en el porte continúa causando problemas a la industria de la contactología. La sequedad y el malestar relacionados con las lentes de contacto continúan siendo reportados por aproximadamente el 30% y 50% de los portadores de lentes, principalmente las molestias al final del día. Una encuesta reciente indico que el 25% de los encuestados habían descontinuado el po…
The Taxon Rasivalva (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) in the Palaearctic Region and Description of Rasivalva pyrenaica New Species from Andorra
2005
Rasivalva appears to be an uncommon genus, although it is nearly cosmopolitan with the exception of the Australian continent. Five species have been recorded from Europe and Crimea. In this paper, Rasivalva pyrenaica n. sp. is described as the most southern Palaearctic record of this genus, as well as the first record of the genus from Iberian Peninsula. An identification key is proposed for the Palaearctic species.
Anaerobic Degradation of Environmentally Hazardous Aquatic Plant Pistia stratiotes and Soluble Cu(II) Detoxification by Methanogenic Granular Microbi…
2021
The aquatic plant Pistia stratiotes L. is environmentally hazardous and requires effective methods for its utilization. The harmfulness of these plants is determined by their excessive growth in water bodies and degradation of local aquatic ecosystems. Mechanical removal of these plants is widespread but requires fairly resource-intensive technology. However, these aquatic plants are polymer-containing substrates and have a great potential for conversion into bioenergy. The aim of the work was to determine the main patterns of Pistia stratiotes L. degradation via granular microbial preparation (GMP) to obtain biomethane gas while simultaneously detoxifying toxic copper compounds. The compos…
Life Cycle Environmental Assessment of Energy Valorization of the Residual Agro-Food Industry
2021
This study assesses the potential environmental impacts related to the energy valorization of agro-food industry waste thought the Life Cycle Assessment methodology (ISO 14040). The system examined consists of a real anaerobic digester coupled with a combined anaerobic digester and heat and power plant (AD-CHP) operating in Sicily. The analysis accounts for all the impacts occurring from the delivery of the biomass to the AD-CHP plant up to the electricity generation in the CHP. The main outcomes of the study include the eco-profile of the energy system providing electricity and the assessment of the contribution of each life cycle phase aimed at identifying the potential improvement area. …
Agricultural Residue Management for Sustainable Power Generation: The Poland Case Study
2021
The European Union has set targets for renewable energy utilization. Poland is a member of the EU, and its authorities support an increase in renewable energy use. The background of this study is based on the role of renewable energy sources in improving energy security and mitigation of climate change. Agricultural waste is of a significant role in bioenergy. However, there is a lack of integrated methodology for the measurement of its potential. The possibility of developing an integrated evaluation methodology for renewable energy potential and its spatial distribution was assumed as the hypothesis. The novelty of this study is the integration of two renewable energy sources: crop residu…
The histone deacetylase Rpd3 regulates the heterochromatin structure of Drosophila telomeres
2011
Telomeres are specialized structures at the end of eukaryotic chromosomes that are required to preserve genome integrity, chromosome stability and nuclear architecture. Telomere maintenance and function are established epigenetically in several eukaryotes. However, the exact chromatin enzymatic modifications regulating telomere homeostasis are poorly understood. In Drosophila melanogaster, telomere length and stability are maintained through the retrotransposition of specialized telomeric sequences and by the specific loading of protecting capping proteins, respectively. Here, we show that the loss of the essential and evolutionarily conserved histone deacetylase Rpd3, the homolog of mammal…
La legislación más relevante en materia de adicciones
2005
El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo, exponer sucintamente, y acotada cronológicamente, la legislación más destacada en materia de adicción, con especial referencia al alcoholismo, tabaquismo y drogas. Igualmente se expondrán aquellos elementos comunes y principios que identifica la legislación estatal, y las legislaciones autonómicas en la materia.
Mediación en drogodependencias: reflexión práctica y ámbitos de aplicación
2012
La mediación es una disciplina emergente que se está implantando gradualmente en todos los ámbitos de la sociedad. La mediación trabaja desde la gestión positiva del confl icto, acercándolo a las partes y haciéndolas responsables de sus propias decisiones. Para ello, se sirve de la ayuda de una fi gura neutral e imparcial que dirige el proceso para conseguir que las partes lleguen a un acuerdo satisfactorio y benefi cioso para ambas. Este procedimiento de solución de confl ictos está avalado a nivel estatal por la Ley 5/2012, de 6 de julio, de mediación en asuntos civiles y mercantiles. Sin embargo, por su estructura y fl exibilidad, la mediación es una herramienta que puede instaurarse en …
