INTRODUCTION
The increase in automation and intensification of production processes and the reduction of the amount of water used in these processes leads to a significant increase of pollutants in industrial wastewater. Bearing in mind the progressive degradation of the natural environment, there is a need to limit the negative impact of industry on various elements of the environment, including on surface waters through the use of effective methods of wastewater treatment. This situation

Summary. Nowadays, a transportation industry creates a lot of metal scrap because production and use of cars are on the increase worldwide. This is based on the fact that increase in the production of cars increases usage of aluminium alloys in transportationapplications. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the production of components from primary aluminium alloy and increase their replacement with secondary—recycled—aluminium alloys because the production of recycled aluminium

Giant magnetoresistance (GMR) sensor has been developed and widely applied to use as magnetic read head in data storage industry. This paper describes new applications of magnetic-field measurement with high spatial-resolution and high sensitivity to nondestructive evaluation and biomedical engineering. For nondestructive evaluation, the GMR sensor, used as magnetic sensor based on eddy-current testing technique, was applied to the detection of micro-crack on micro-conductor for the purpose of

Nitroaromatic compounds are present in the environment mainly as industry products. They pose a serious risk to our health (often exhibiting strong mutagenic and carcinogenic effect) as well as to the environment. Most of the nitroaromatic compounds are stable due to considerable resistance to degradation and they persist in the environment for a long time. In this review, we present the current state of knowledge concerning biodegradation of nitroaromatic compounds. In the first part, general

Copper becomes more and more important in the electronic industry. This metal is more resilient than conventional materials (like aluminium) due to the higher electrical and thermal conductivity. During several electrical stress pulses the copper changes. The surface can melt up and cracks and voids can develop inside the copper specimen. In this paper we use acoustic emission testing to analyse copper degradation especially of copper and copper traces. It is evaluated if an acoustic wave

Finally, one difficulty with commonly used sand detectors is the requirement for having fluid velocity as a pre-requisite for sand flow rate estimation. For instance, in several applications such as subsea wellheads, there is no flow meter by which the fluid velocity can be measured. Therefore, having a method for sand flow rate measurement in

Compare the actual data on ball mill to the data of the model then the result shows that the mean square error of CPM is smaller than the mean square error of PM and CM. The experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, which can be effectively used in ball mill in our industry.

Mechanical and durability performance of concrete depends on its production processes such as production, mixing, pouring and curing. Before concrete is brought into service, final process is the curing of concrete which is susceptible to different environmental conditions. For instance, atmospheric steam curing is essential to accelerate the strength development of concrete in precast concrete industry. Since hydration capability increases with the increment of temperature

Aging people are typically frailer, more unsteady, and have slower reactions, thus are more likely to fall and be injured than younger individuals. Typically, research and industry presented various practical solutions for assisting the elderly and their caregivers against falls via detecting falls
