Sulfur dyed cellulosic goods exhibit limited wash fastness against oxidative laundering; particularly to washing powder formulations containing activated bleaches. This study presents a novel two-bath exhaust finishing process improve the of Black 1 cotton fabrics reduced with two different reducing agents—sodium sulfide and commercial glucose-based Diresul agent D. The involves sequential afte...

A study was conducted to assess the performance of anaerobic-aerobic treatment system of a local potato processing industry. The wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) consisted of primary treatment, upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB), activated sludge process (ASP) and secondary clarifier. The study analyzed the physical, chemical and biochemical parameters of the influent (raw sewage) as well ...

The efficiency of constructed wetland to treat weak and medium primary sewage effluent was tested under three rates of sewage inflow and two types of growing plants (i.e., leaf cattail and common reed). The capability of the wetland to remove COD, BOD, TSS, TDS and F. coliform from the primary weak sewage increased with decreasing the rate of the sewage inflow from 12 L/hr. to 6L/hr., with litt...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the balloon occlusive diameter (BOD) of non-circular defects in the transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect (ASD). SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total of 67 patients who had undergone transcatheter closure of an ASD were reviewed retrospectively. A non-circular defect was defined as the ratio of the short diameter to the long d...

OBJECTIVE Iran as a developing country is in the transition phase, which might have a big impact on the Burden of Disease and Injury (BOD). This study aims to estimate Burden of Disease and Injury (BOD) in Iran up to 2025 due to four broad cause groups using Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALY). METHODS The impacts of demographic and epidemiological changes on BOD (DemBOD and EpiBOD) were ass...

This work studied the combination of a chemical coagulation/flocculation step with an aerobic biological process, using feed-batch operation, to treat real paint manufacturing wastewater (PMW). The results indicate that the combination of coagulation flocculation and biological process is an efficient alternative in the treatment of PMW. For initials COD of 18590 mg/L, BOD of 1492 mg/L and colo...

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1851 document provides guidelines for firefighters on the care and maintenance of their PPE, including decontamination practices. Firefighters are exposed to various toxic chemicals during fire suppression activities, making effective crucial safety. This study evaluated efficacy different washing parameters, temperature, time, surfactants, cleani...

conclusions it is suggested that the training of nonpharmacological methods to improve sleep quality such as reflexology and foot bath be included in the elderly health programs. in addition, it is recommended that the impact of these interventions on subjective sleep quality using polysomnographic recordings be explored in future research. background sleep disorders are common mental disorders...
