BACKGROUND The textile industry is one of the largest employers in Lithuania. IARC monograph concludes that working in the textile manufacturing industry entails exposures that are possibly carcinogenic to humans. The purpose of this study was to investigate risk of lung cancer incidence in textile industry workers by the type of job and evaluate the relation between occupational textile dusts ...

Let's read! We will often find out this sentence everywhere. When still being a kid, mom used to order us to always read, so did the teacher. Some books are fully read in a week and we need the obligation to support reading. What about now? Do you still love reading? Is reading only for you who have obligation? Absolutely not! We here offer you a new book enPDFd japans software factories a chal...

Software modelers refactor their design models to improve design quality while preserving essential functional properties. Tools that allow modelers to check whether their refactorings preserve specified essential behaviors are needed to support rigorous model evolution. In this paper we describe a rigorous approach to analyzing design model refactorings that involve changes to operation specif...

In the world of software systems, the process of evolving is an essential one. If this process represents no challenge on small systems, it becomes unbearable if the size of the system exceeds a certain limit. Therefore, the need arises for software tools that can carry out the necessary transformations automatically. This paper addresses the possibility to detect spots within an object-oriente...

Factory farming continues to grow around the world as a low-cost way of producing animal products for human consumption. However, many of the practices associated with intensive animal farming have been criticized by public health professionals and animal welfare advocates. The aim of this essay is to raise three independent moral concerns with factory farming, and to explain why the practices ...

As landfill costs rise, so does the pressure to increase recycling of nonhazardous waste. A study was conducted to determine the attitudes of textile manufacturers towards market acceptance of recycling textile fibers into new textile products. A questionnaire elicited responses from 90 of 157 manufacturers in seven textile Standard Industrial Codes (SICS) in North Carolina, including small, me...

In a Least Developed Country (LDC) like Bangladesh where the textile is the main core of the economy, there is a major drawback in this sector which is the defect detection of the fabric. In the manual fault detection system with highly trained inspectors, very less percentage of the defects is being detected in upon fabrics in the textile industries. But a real time automatic system can increa...

Industry 4.0 has remarkably transformed many industries. Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) architecture is important to enable an intelligent connected manufacturing factory. SCADA extensively used in Internet of Things (IoT) applications, including analytics visualization. Product quality management across most In this study, we develop a cloud-based module for production predic...

Textile effluents are among the most difficult-to-treat wastewaters, due to their considerable amount of recalcitrant and toxic substances. Fungal biosorption is viewed as a valuable additional treatment for removing pollutants from textile wastewaters. In this study the efficiency of Cunninghamella elegans biomass in terms of contaminants, COD and toxicity reduction was tested against textile ...
