results according to the study results, noise levels in a co2 plant’s house and control room ranged from 88 to 102 db and 79 to 82 db (a), respectively. in order to reduce the amount of emitted noise in the co2 plant house and control room, a noise control plan was implemented in each part of the facility; it was met with effective results. conclusions the findings of this investigation have cl...

In a meta-analysis of 88 studies, we examined the association between soft drink consumption and nutrition and health outcomes. We found clear associations of soft drink intake with increased energy intake and body weight. Soft drink intake also was associated with lower intakes of milk, calcium, and other nutrients and with an increased risk of several medical problems (e.g., diabetes). Study ...

In this work, an overview of industrial employees' noise exposure level in five selected processing and manufacturing industries in Ilorin are evaluated and compared. Emphasis is given to noise emitted by individual industrial machinery from the selected industries. Event L(Aeq) and LN cycle were studied to identify the noisy machines and to generate baseline data. Findings show that, hammer mi...

The consumption of soft drinks has increased dramatically over past several decades; the soft drink industry is reported to produce 10 billion 192-ounce cases per year. Over a 50-year period, annual soft drink production appears to have increased fivefold, from 100 12-ounce cans per person in 1947 to nearly 600 12ounce cans per person in 1997. Looking at it another way, the average person in 19...

This research was conducted to investigate the effects of peppermint (Mentha piperita) essence treatment (2000 mg L-1) and cola soft drink treatment separately and in combination with each other on the vase life and some physiological characteristics of gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii) cut flowers with factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design with 3 replications. Distilled water used ...

I simulate the competitive impact of several soft drink mergers from the 1980s on equilibrium prices and quantities. An unusual feature of soft drink demand is that, at the individual purchase level, households regularly select a variety of soft drink products. Specifically, on a given trip households may select multiple soft drink products and multiple units of each. A concern is that using a ...
