1. Job precariousness: supply chain management in a waste pickers association
Resumo Waste pickers are key players within municipal solid waste management and an important link in the recycling chain. Waste pickers perform their activities in precarious conditions: they work in bad weather; run the risk of traffic accidents; come in contact with insects that transmit disease and suffer from weight overload. These conditions are aggrav

3. A Finite-Difference Time-Domain Formulation for Modeling Air Ionization Breakdown Streamers
Abstract A numerical model based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is developed for calculating discharge currents and fields produced due air ionization between two electrodes. Electric conductivity σ of the ionized channel between two electrodes is calculated using non-linear equations, i.e., σ is obtained using functions of time. The fu

4. QUANTITATIVE SPECIATION OF THE LIQUID PHASE BY FTIR SPECTROSCOPY IN THE SYSTEM AMP-PZ-CO2-H2O
This work reports a multivariate calibration partial least square regression (PLS) model to quantify the liquid-phase concentrations of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP), piperazine (PZ), bicarbonate, PZ monocarbamate, and PZ dicarbamate during the absorption/desorption process by Fourier Transform Mid-Infrared spectroscopy (mid-FTIR). The model could predic

5. Diesel-Like Biofuels Production Using Fatty Waste
According to the waste-to-energy (WTE) valorization and circular economy principles, the use of waste oil and grease (WOG) for obtaining biofuels shows the tendency towards sustainability, makes the interest in green chemistry, and the development of environmentally friendly processes grow. Three different fatty wastes (from the fat trap of a sewage station,

6. Allometric models for estimating the leaf area of lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) using a non-destructive method
ABSTRACT Lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) is a cut flower grown due to the wide diversity of colors and longevity in the post-harvest. The leaf area measurement is fundamental in plants because the leaves are directly related to several processes such as transpiration, radiation interception and CO2 fixation that enable the plant to grow. The objective of t

7. Characterization of partnerships and collaborations in US cities' urban resilience plans
Abstract Purpose The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (UN SDG) number 13 calls for urgent action to combat climate change impacts. Urban resilience planning documents often articulate partnerships and collaborations (P&Cs) as critical strategies. This study aims to identify the actors, the topics, processes, and visions of collaboration. Design/

8. Designing and fabrication of a low-cost dip-coater for rapid production of uniform thin films
In this work, a self-made dip-coater equipment was developed for the fabrication of thin films. The assembly of the apparatus was carried out using simple mechanical and electronic pieces, recycle parts, and spending an inexpensive budget suitably. The production, software design, and features of the device were focused on the sol-gel dip-coating method, whi

9. Serum Long-Noncoding RNA H19 and β-Catenin as Biomarkers for Early Diagnosis of Colorectal Cancer in Egyptian Patients: A Case Control Study
Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most prevalent cancer and the second most common cause of cancer death; however, its early detection can improve the survival. Colonic polyps are considered one of the CRC's major risk factors. Throughout many biological processes and malignancies, the non-coding RNAs have essential functions. Certain long noncod

10. Innovative gas chromatographic determination of formaldehyde by miniaturized extraction and on-fiber derivatization, via SPME and SPME Arrow
Formaldehyde (FA) is a carbonyl compound, ubiquitous in the environment and among the most widespread pollutants: it has exhibited toxic properties and is classified as a human carcinogen. FA is released from several sources, both temporary (e.g., combustion processes) and permanent (e.g., building products). This work proposes an innovative fully-automated

12. Antibacterial Profile in vitro and in vivo of New 1,4-Naphthoquinones Tethered to 1,2,3-1H-Triazoles Against the Planktonic Growth of Streptococcus mutans
The cariogenic processes are mainly caused by the bacterium Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) and consist of the demineralization of the tooth that occurs when the acid production overcomes the natural repair or if a problem occurs in the last one. In this work, we performed the synthesis of twenty-one 1,4-naphthoquinones tethered to 1,2,3-1H-triazoles (8a-8k
