Maintaining quinolone concentrations outside the mutant selection window (MSW) between the MIC and mutant prevention concentration (MPC) was suggested by in vitro and in vivo studies to prevent the selection of resistant mutants. However, selection also may depend on the presence of resistant bacterial mutants at the start of treatment, which is highly dependent on the initial inoculum size. In...

forecasting of municipal waste generation is a critical challenge for decision making and planning,because proper planning and operation of a solid waste management system is intensively affected by municipal solid waste (msw) streams analysis and accurate predictions of solid waste quantities generated. due to dynamic and complexity of solid waste management system, models by artificial intell...

Hazardous substances, such as polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) also have been detected in Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) and industrial waste incinerators in Korea. In this study, we estimated the exposure status of these hazardous substances and their heath effects in workers and residents near the MSW incinerators and residents near the industri...

Accurate estimation of emissions greenhouse gases (GHGs) is required for making effective climate change mitigation policies at the national level. Among major sources, municipal solid waste (MSW) an important source GHGs, such as methane (CH4), generated during anaerobic decomposition organic matter. In Viet Nam, GHGs are not well quantified, in particular from MSW management system. this stud...

Municipal solid waste (MSW), comprising food waste, residential rubbish and commercial waste, has been identified as a potential feedstock for the production of alternative fuels. Conversion of MSW to fuel could displace petroleum-derived fuels to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from transportation, and also avoid the GHG emissions associated with existing waste management strategies su...

The current situation in Russia concerning generation and disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW) is characterized by significant environmental pollution, irrational use natural resources and, as a result, economic damage. Measures taken at the federal regional levels focused on achieving optimal efficiency management. However, an increasing financial burden legal entities due to higher standar...

The municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal system is the key for building smart city. In MSW system, allocated among plants in first echelon, and then derivatives (incineration residues RDF) are between markets second echelon. two-echelon optimal allocation of two objectives, cost environmental impact, should be considered. Considering uncertainty this paper constructs a grey fuzzy multi-objectiv...
