Effect of biomass features on oxygen transfer in Conventional Activated Sludge and Membrane BioReactor systems
2018
The present study reports the results on the comparison between the oxygen transfer efficiency in a conventional activated sludge (CAS) and membrane bioreactor (MBR) system. The oxygen transfer was evaluated by means of the oxygen transfer coefficient (kLa)20 and α-factor calculation, under different operating conditions and with different activated sludge features, including total suspended solids (TSS) concentration, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) content and composition, sludge viscosity and size of the flocs. The (kLa)20 and α-factor showed an exponential decreasing trends with TSS in the CAS and MBR, even if it was noted that the (kLa)20 dependence on TSS was stronger in the …
Monitoraggio dell’adeguatezza prescrittiva dell’albumina per uso terapeutico nel triennio 2009-2011 presso una realtà ospedaliera di Palermo
2013
OBIETTIVI: L'elaborazione di una modulistica standardizzata di richiesta di albumina rientra tra gli strumenti di razionalizzazione delle risorse sanitarie, inteso sia come contenimento dei costi che come uso conforme alle raccomandazioni e linee guida internazionali; l'albumina infatti è un farmaco di elevato costo e dal frequente utilizzo in circostanze non appropriate e recenti evidenze scientifiche dimostrano come alcune delle indicazioni tradizionali mostrano uno sfavorevole rapporto costo/beneficio, e in altri casi addirittura provocano un aumento della mortalità nei pazienti non opportunamente trattati. METODI: A partire dal 2009, in un ospedale palermitano a gestione pubblico-privat…
Effect of Temperature on N2O and NO Emission in a Partial Nitrification SBR Treating Reject Wastewater
2017
Temperature is a very important parameter during nitritation, having a direct effect on ammonia oxidation rate (AOR) and enzymatic activities which relate to both N2O and NO emission. This study aims at investigating the effect of temperature on AOR, N2O and NO production in an enriched ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) sequencing batch reactor (SBR) performing partial nitrification (PN) of synthetic reject wastewater. To achieve that, a SBR was subject to several shifts in temperature (in the range of 30 to 15 °C, 5 °C for each decrease). Cycle studies, which contain two aeration phases, were conducted under each temperature. The results showed that AOR specific exponentially correlates wit…
Anaerobic moving bed biofilm reactor followed by aerobic granular sludge for brewery wastewater treatment
2018
Small and medium breweries discharging to municipal sewers without treatment generate significant loads with typical concentrations reported by Valta et al. (2014) as 2-6 g COD L-1, 25-80 mg TN L-1, 10-50 mg TP L-1, with pH between 4.5 and 12. Treatment of the high-strength wastewater requires specialized low footprint processes, such as aerobic granular sludge (AGS), capable of high-rate degradation, as well as simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorous removal (Wang et al., 2007). The objective of this study was to evaluate the start-up period of AGS receiving brewery wastewater after initial anaerobic pre-treatment.
mHealth for the Monitoring of Brace Compliance and Wellbeing in Adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis: Study Protocol for a Feasibility Study
2021
Escoliosis idiopática del adolescente; Aplicación móvil; Eficacia del tratamiento Escoliosi idiopàtica de l'adolescent; Aplicació mòbil; Eficàcia del tractament Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis; Mobile application; Treatment effectiveness Attempts to optimize monitoring of brace adherence prescribed to adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis (IS) have generally relied on sensors. Sensors, however, are intrusive and do not allow the assessment of psychological and physical consequences of brace use that might underlie poor adherence. Mobile applications have emerged as alternatives to monitor brace compliance. However, the feasibility and utility of these app-based systems to assess key psychol…

El día a día del trabajo social en Salud: funciones y disfunciones
2010
Este artículo aporta información sobre la Asociación Española de Trabajo Social y Salud, su Delegación en la Comunidad Valenciana y la jornada que celebró en noviembre 2009, cuyo lema era: 'El día a día del Trabajo Social en Salud: funciones y disfunciones' y su objetivo propiciar un espacio de intercambio, análisis, reflexión y proposición sobre la práctica diaria en el campo de la salud por parte de los trabajadores sociales, para una mejor praxis profesional, una mayor atención integral, una mayor eficiencia asistencial, una mayor satisfacción de los ciudadanos y una mayor rentabilidad social de la intervención social en el ámbito sanitario. This article describes the Spanish Association…
Architectures for autism
2015
Le ricerche condotte sulle malattie degenerative della "terza età", hanno visto negli ultimi anni il gruppo di studio palermitano indagare e proporre soluzioni che vanno dalla stesura di linee guida per la progettazione di Residenze Sanitarie Assistenziali (RSA), alla progettazione esecutiva di architetture residenziali, al recupero e riuso di edilizia già esistente fino alla progettazione dello spazio domestico dedicato e protetto, che oltre a fornire risposte funzionali ne ha anche esaltato il design degli elementi di arredo. A questo ambito di ricerca da circa due anni si è affiancato un nuovo settore di indagine indirizzato sempre alle "minoranze sociali". Research conducted on degenera…
