Assessing waste production in schools highlights the contribution of school children and staff to total amount generated a region, as well any poor practices recycling (the so-called separate collection waste) by students, which could be improved through educational activities. Educating young people regarding importance environmental issues is essential, since instilling right behavior also beneficial their families. The way management was carried out different Trento (northern Italy)...
Despite their key role in integrated waste management, direct (incineration) and indirect (gasification/pyrolysis) combustion processes are still opposed by some of the general public due to past emission levels air pollutants. In fact, although release pollutants (especially dioxin) atmosphere from has gradually decreased over years, thanks introduction stricter regulations more advanced removal technologies, there is an unsolved problem regarding acceptance waste-to-energy facilities. The...
ABSTRACT Background Evidence supporting robotic thymectomy for myasthenia gravis is generally based on small sample‐size studies, heterogeneous in patient selection and reporting outcomes. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the surgical neurological outcomes of myasthenic patients identify prognostic factors associated with symptoms' remission through a large cohort operated 20 years' period. Methods A retrospective analysis prospectively maintained database all undergoing between...
Background: Pancoast tumors are a rare subset of lung cancers that require multimodal approach (induction chemoradiotherapy and surgery), best performed in highly specialized centers. This study analyzes the outcomes prognostic factors patients treated at high-volume center over an extended period. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 43 who underwent surgery for tumors, following induction treatment between 2005 2023. Survival was estimated using Kaplan–Meier method, Cox proportional...
A model of biogas generation was modified and applied to the case a sanitary landfill in Italy. The modifications considered role temperature field normally established within each layer waste. It must be pointed out affects anaerobic biodegradation kinetics. In order assess effect moisture on waste rate, bacteria process then methane production, compared with LandGEM one. Information initial water content came from data concerning composition. No additional information about hydrological...
The optimization of municipal solid waste management requires the re-organization niche sectors too. sector university is not fully explored from scientific point view. creation networks among universities in order to face this issue allows an exchange expertise also at international level as demonstrated article, by three case studies: two Italian (University Trento and University Insubria) one Russian (Ural Federal University) universities. This study highlights pros cons each terms...
61 Road traffic is one of the main sources atmospheric pollution in urban areas, where contribution flows, congestions and high population density typically increases exposure settled to pollutants [1-3]. One most important family traffic-related represented by nitrogen oxides (NO x ), whose contributors their emissions Europe are mobile (38.4%), followed energy production sector (21.1%), commercial, institutional household sectors (14.8%), use industry (13.4%) other minor (12.3%)
Biofiltration has been widely applied to remove odours and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from industrial off-gas mechanical-biological waste treatments. However, conventional open biofilters cannot guarantee an efficient dispersion of air pollutants emitted into the atmosphere. The aim this paper is compare with biotrickling filters (BTFs) in terms VOC atmosphere quality vicinity a hypothetical municipal solid bio-drying plant. Simulations were carried out regarding two VOCs interest due...
In the European Union (EU), dominant technology for high-temperature thermal treatment of residual Municipal Solid Waste (i.e., unsorted waste where source separation is performed) moving grate incineration. The process combustion in this sector has been optimised thanks to introduction stringent criteria operation both chamber and generated off-gas. However, costs can be sustainable only if tariff applied service coherent with average value found sector. literature demonstrates that, under...
