This study assessed the annual effective dose from drinking water across different age categories, considering various sources of water. The samples were collected locations, with categorized into public systems, private wells, and bottled In samples, no radionuclides other than Ra-226, Th-232, K-40, H-3 detected. average tritium concentration in was measured at 1.84 Bq L-1, significantly below permissible safety standards. indicated that infants received highest water, averaging 0.88 mSv...

The aim of this study was to determine naturally occurring radionuclides ( 40 K, 226 Ra and 232 Th) the artificial radionuclide 137 Cs in various honey samples from Kosovo.This is particular importance because it first effort evaluate contamination by radioactivity at country level.The average concentrations Ra, Th, K on were found be 0.49±0.15,1.28±0.18,1.03±0.11and 20.44±0.69Bq kg -1 , respectively.The activity values well below limit value (1000 Bq ) recommended ICRP foodstuffs.Only 20%...

This paper aims to investigate the simulation of biochemical degradation process for various types organic waste. The study focuses on analyzing and understanding how different factors influence breakdown transformation materials into useful byproducts, such as compost or renewable energy sources. Through utilizing a computational model, this research offers valuable insights optimizing waste management strategies with potential environmental benefits. growing concern over sustainability has...

Strawberries are appreciated and important in our diet for their sensory nutritional characteristics because of high content essential nutrients is beneficial biological activity human health. The aim this research was to analysis some chemical parameter five strawberry fresh samples from plantation Kosovo area at the ripe stage. parameters analyzed with different analytical methods (refractometry,spectrophotometry,GC-ECD combined ultrasonic bath extraction a Florisil column clean-up)...

A lot of residents around the world live in locations previously not examined, being exposed to radioactivity from inner side soil as a result Radon's presence, causing health effects (cancer). Radon is only radioactive element gas state normal condition and according World Health Organization (WHO) 1996 it has been classified into Group Cancerous Elements. formed by decomposition Radium, while Radium comes Uranium. Uranium found different concentrations on crust earth.

This paper is intended to compare the difference between two measured radon metering methods in some areas of Kosovo known as Hot Spots. The measurements were realized by methods: Active Method was performed with PRM 145 device while passive are using track detectors CR-39. a series drillings for each high concentration Radon, mainly north-western part Kosovo. From measurement results except fact that we distinguish Radon-222 presence also see differences from both and can conclude give...

The dairy industrial plants usually run in continuous operation procedure and they produce except main products: different content of fat milk, pasteurized products it, butter, cheese a great amount wastewaters is continuously discharged into streams, rivers, seas. There wastes not only contaminate the environment, but have some ingredients usable to profitable materials such as Ethanol. Our experimental works this work has been focused finding proper way simply characterize these wastewater...

Industrial contamination is one of the biggest concerns nowadays. The town Mitrovica located in northern part Kosovo, around 40 km north capital Pristina, with 330 km2 and approximately 71,600 inhabitants, excluding city, an altitude about 500-550m. has largest complex mining metallurgy Europe -"Trepça", known for exploitation Pb, Zn Cd, and, as a consequence, continues to be most polluted cities Kosovo air, soil water. anthropogenic source heavy metals environment are either consequence...

Abstract During our study we examined different resources of organic biomass in actual reality for Albania and tried to find a suitable utilization process the energy sector heat (energy) production. Emphasis has been given agricultural forestry wastes as well animal wastes, aimed proceed some tendency reaching status mixture prepared from these order get much possible biogas (Methane).Different alternative methods degradation or disintegration waste such as: composting burning does not...

There is an effective and recommended way of using waste glycerol, as a byproduct during biodiesel production. It processing through fermentation that brings into reality bio ethanol obtaining by the development valuable different reactions processes such anaerobic resulting except bio-ethanol also succinic 144 acid useful chemical compound. We have considered in this study, these glycerol derived industry includes some steps. The need for technological important, not only environmental...
