Hospital preparedness for chemical and biological incidents in Hong Kong.
The risk of mass exposure to toxic substances has increased steadily during the twentieth century due to the expansion of industry and the deliberate development and use of agents of chemical warfare. Although Hong Kong is considered a relatively safe place, hoax anthrax attacks have occurred since 17 October 2001. People who have been seriously injured by hazardous materials have a greater cha...
متن کاملA Practical Desalinization Model for Large Scale Application
Salinity of soil and water is the most important agricultural hazard in arid and semi-aridregions. In saline soils, yield production directly influences by soluble salts in the root zone aswell as by shallow water table depth. The first step for reclamation of such soils is reducingsalinity to optimum level by leaching. The objective of this study was to develop a practicalmodel to estimate wat...
متن کاملA partition-based algorithm for clustering large-scale software systems
Clustering techniques are used to extract the structure of software for understanding, maintaining, and refactoring. In the literature, most of the proposed approaches for software clustering are divided into hierarchical algorithms and search-based techniques. In the former, clustering is a process of merging (splitting) similar (non-similar) clusters. These techniques suffered from the drawba...
متن کاملHospital preparedness for bioterrorism.
James D. Bentley, PhDa I have been asked to address what happens when, despite the best detection, the best prevention, and the best information, people get sick in a bioterrorism attack and end up in the hospital. The hospital is the likely source of care because it is accessible 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It’s where you and I, our friends, and our neighbors assume we’re going to get car...
متن کاملA Scale-up Design Procedure for Rotating Biological Contactors
A scale-up design procedure, based on a new physical mass transfer (PMT) model, whichdescribes the performance, for aerobic rotating biological contactors (RBC’s) is developed. This scale-up procedure can be used to determine the disc surface area needed to prevent an oxygen limitation or to obtain a specific degree of treatment. In contrast to the empirical, and most previous RBC performance m...
