Abstract Riverbed sediments host important biogeochemical processes that play a key role in nutrient dynamics. Sedimentary transformations are mediated by bacteria the form of attached biofilms. The influence microbial metabolic activity on hydrochemical conditions within hyporheic zone is poorly understood. We present hydrobiogeochemical model to assess how growth heterotrophic and autotrophic biomass affects transport transformation dissolved nitrogen compounds bed form‐induced zones....
All work sectors have been affected by the impact of COVID-19 pandemic. The perception risk combined with lack safety and fear for their own caused severe psychological discomfort in workers. Of all sectors, most was certainly healthcare sector. In hospitals, medical staff were at forefront battle against COVID-19, providing care close physical proximity to patients had a direct being exposed virus. main objective study investigate psychosocial climate effect on engagement stress sample 606...
The treatment of greywater (GW, wastewater share excluding toilet flush) through green walls can be beneficial for urban areas, favouring the diffusion vegetation and reducing potable water consumption. Multiple challenges hinder performance walls, including composition filtering material, number levels—i.e., rows—and age system. This study investigated graphene as an additive (5%v) to a medium made coconut fibre, perlite biochar in open-air wall with pots arranged into three levels. GW was...
According to the European Research and Innovation Policy Agenda, nature-based solutions (NBSs) are key technologies improve sustainability of urban areas. Among NBSs, green walls have been recently studied for several applications, among others treatment lowly polluted wastewater flows as greywater (GW, e.g. domestic excluding toilet flushes). This work is aimed at evaluation influence four additives (compost, biochar, granular activated carbon, polyacrylate) mixed with a base filter medium...
Graywater (GW), i.e., the portion of household wastewater that excludes toilet flushes, is an interesting type because it requires only mild treatment. Green walls have been proposed as example a nature-based solution for GW treatment due to low energy requirement and high ecological/societal benefits; however, indications about their performances remain limited. This work presents experimental results laboratory modular green wall Experiments performed outdoors during winter season three...
Several authors have highlighted the importance of creating a useful tool to evaluate academic Burnout through construction and validation specific scales Burnout. Based on literature, aim this study is in Italian university psychometric properties SBI-U 9 scale for Academic students Italy developed by Boada-Grau colleagues. Study 1 (N=609) examined factor structure (Male=45.6%, Female=54.4%; Mage= 21.9; SD=2.92). 2 (N=412) advanced previous testing its measurement equivalence across gender...
This paper discusses a new boundary element computer program applicable to thermal diffusion. The nonlinear transient case is especially considered, and the solutions used get an integral equation with integrals only are pointed out. numerical procedures disconnect space time integrations take into account nonlinearities on domain also described. At end, simplified model of nuclear reactor core presented
River bedforms arise as a result of morphological instabilities the stream-sediment interface. Dunes and antidunes constitute most typical patterns, their occurrence dynamics are relevant for number engineering environmental applications. Although flow variability is feature all rivers, bedform-triggering have generally been studied under assumption constant rate. In order to partially address this shortcoming, we here discuss influence (periodic) unsteadiness on bedform inception. To end,...
<p>The principles of circular economy and sustainability involve also water management. Since both scarcity demand are increasing, wastewater reuse represents a necessary element to preserve the environment while guaranteeing human development. Greywater is amount that more suitable for purposes: it comes from sinks, showers, bath tubes laundry. has low pollutant concentration developed countries generate high volumes everyday.</p><p>Nature-based...
In this study, we describe a sustainable system for treatment and reuse of grey wastewater in urban areas through vertical green walls constructed on unused surfaces buildings. The integrates the benefits linked to introduction spaces with advantages connected purified greywater (non-potable reuse) reduction potable water use, allowing use resources. We wall composed modular panels 12 vegetated pots per panel. was irrigated synthetic greywater, removal efficiency monitored weekly regards...
