چکیده
The investigation on the transboundary shipment of used and waste electrical electronic equipment from developed countries is a well-studied subject with regard to environmental health impacts in destination when it reaches end-of-life. Prior research has ranked Ireland 8th highest source (UEEE) into Nigeria, roll-on roll-off (RoRo) vehicles as largest carrier (Odeyingbo 2017). This study presents first comprehensive port origin estimation UEEE export shipments RoRo vehicles. was obtained by using ‘person port’ involving vehicle enforcement document inspections at Ringaskiddy Cork, Ireland. By scaling sampling data annual figures, estimated that 17,319 kg are currently exported annually around 1 5 contain UEEE. Additionally, type frequency show certain high demand country. Nigerian second-hand websites, were valued approximately €147,225. results this suggests significant reduction previous studies highlights an opportunity for further additional ports origin, well examination shipping process, cost, verification functionality. straightforward methods provide better understandings flows all stakeholders concerned regulation, enforcement, safety shipment.

Towards Realizing High-Throughput, Roll-to-Roll Manufacturing of Flexible Electronic Systems
High-rate roll-to-roll (R2R) tracker systems are utilized for large volume flexible electronic device manufacturing, and the current alignment mechanism between layers is mainly achieved by relying on passive techniques. In this paper, we present a machine vision based alignment strategy that is used to achieve precise registration for stacking multilayers. Based on this strategy, we demonstrat...
متن کاملISI-Free Power Roll-Off Pulse
SUMMARY An ISI-free power roll-off pulse, the roll-off characteristic of which is tunable with one power parameter, is proposed. It is shown that the proposed pulse is advantageous in terms of the probability of error for pulse detection in the presence of a timing error among currently known good pulses, among which the raised cosine pulse, " better than " raised cosine pulse, and polynomial p...

A review of roll-to-roll nanoimprint lithography
UNLABELLED Since its introduction in 1995, nanoimprint lithography has been demonstrated in many researches as a simple, low-cost, and high-throughput process for replicating micro- and nanoscale patterns. Due to its advantages, the nanoimprint lithography method has been rapidly developed over the years as a promising alternative to conventional nanolithography processes to fulfill the demands...
