Comparative Analysis of Linearized Expressions for Pseudo-Second-Order Kinetics Modeling of Methylene Blue Adsorption on Sulfuric Acid-Treated Rice Husk: A Statistical Data Analysis Approach
      Yu-Ting Huang, Ming-Cheng Shih
Abstract: Artificial dyes have been employed for over a century in a wide variety of industries, including the textiles and pharmaceutical sectors. However, synthetic dyes are often poorly biodegradable and can be hazardous to human health and the environment. When wastewater containing synthetic dyes is discharged from these facilities without treatment, it can lead to water contamination. Adsorption is a cost-effective and widely adopted method for removing synthetic dyes from wastewater. To improve the efficiency of adsorption, researchers have investigated the adsorption mechanism using different kinetic equations.

Abstract: A distributed broadband branch line coupler and a lumped-distributed ultra-broadband branch line coupler are designed and fabricated. Both couplers are designed in non-uniformity. Theoretical analyses, simulations, and practical measurements are conducted in this paper. Moreover, the ability of the proposed lumped-distributed coupler shows ultra-broadband operation. The theoretical simulation is not far of the practical measurement, and it is showing slight differences. This indicates that this coupler almost fully agreed with the theoretical result. The design and the simulation are done using the Advance Design System (ADS) software.

Abstract: The number of American prison inmates incarcerated in the criminal justice system impacts society both economically and socially. However, the criminal justice system has fallen far short of the rehabilitation goal to facilitate the effective reintegration of male inmates into society and promote acceptable social behaviors upon re-entry. A constructive look at the needs of the criminal justice system and those of the criminal justice population points towards the urgency for increased identification and implementation of best practices.

Abstract: Dynamic stability and dynamic buckling loads of elastic structures have gained numerous interest in recent research. It is because of its wide area of application in many fields of engineering such as civil engineering, architectural engineering and nuclear power plant engineering. Dynamic buckling load of a geometrically imperfect column lying on a nonlinear elastic foundation trapped by a time dependent load is discussed here. Regular perturbation method and asymptotic expansions are applied to solve the differential equation. The effect of damping and geometric imperfections on the dynamic buckling load at different modes are x-rayed.

Abstract: Predicting stock prices remains an important subject of big data analytics. Although many prediction models are developed in the literature, the accurate prediction of Stock-Prices is uncertain due to the underlying problem of massive amounts of data with high response time. Hence, for accurate prediction, an ESSM-GRU-based framework is proposed in this paper. Initially, the Twitter dataset is processed to separate automated twits, pre-process the separated twits, and extract features using TF-IDF. Meantime, the attributes from the historical dataset were extracted and merged with the TF-IDF features using the CK-Means-based clustering phase.

Abstract: The world’s most valuable natural resource is water, and one of the most pressing global environmental issues is the contamination of water resources. The UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development declares the importance of water by Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6) establishes a commitment to ‘Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all’. SDG 6 target 6.3 state that ‘improve water quality by reducing pollution, eliminating dumping and minimizing release of hazardous chemicals and materials, having the proportion of untreated wastewater, and substantially increasing recycling and safe reuse globally’. Water pollution is any chemical, biological, or physical change in water quality that has harmful effects on living organisms or that makes water unsuitable for desired uses. The main Source of pollution is domestic wastewater and solid waste. In Ethiopia, like many developing countries, the management of river water quality is a major environmental challenge. This study focuses on the main causes of Chiro River water pollution.

Abstract: Introduction: Surgical wound infection is one of the most common nosocomial infections after surgery. The incidence rate of SSI in the surgical stage is relatively high, especially in orthopedic surgery; the incidence can be up to 71%. Surgical site infection after spine surgery usually occurs through direct inoculation during the surgical procedure. Using blood and wound culture as the gold standard also has several obstacles. Due to the above constraints, an alternative marker is needed to diagnose early SSI events. One marker that can be used is the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio. The use of the neutrophil-lymphocyte balance is relevant and consistent with the pathogenesis of SSI.

Abstract: Flooding continues to be a common environmental hazard in both developed and developing countries. Crops, settlement and infrastructure are usually impaired wherever flooding occur. The severity of damage as a result of floods has been documented to have a relationship with the flood magnitude, flood frequency and settlement of population on flood prone areas. Whereas various intervention measures have been put in place to address this problem, the problem persists. Presently, floods are the most common hazards with the highest death toll economic misfortunes because of floods being higher than other hazards; Poor groups are more at risk because their livelihoods are vulnerable due to limited access to services and infrastructure. The need of studying peoples risk perception levels in order to adopt effective flood risk management and disaster reduction programs cannot be overstated since prevalence of flood disaster risks by farmers in western region Kenya has been the issue throughout the study area.

Abstract: One must possess a comprehensive comprehension of their organisations capabilities and undertakings, at the very minimum. In order to effectively engage with the subject matter at hand, it is imperative that one possess a comprehensive comprehension of its various functions and processes. One may posit that the identity of a company can be discerned through an analysis of the diverse business concepts and/or success formulas that it employs. The process of transformation is a perpetual one that lacks a definitive conclusion. The potential for novel prospects can be engendered by variables such as shifts in the economic landscape, discontent with prevailing political establishments, and progressions in technology.

Abstract: This research focuses on improving diabetes care in primary care settings in the UK through a case study approach. Secondary data was collected from previous studies and peer-reviewed articles to suggest evidence-based strategies for improving diabetes care. Four studies were analysed to provide insights on the current state of diabetes care in the UK, the feasibility of telemedicine consultations, the benefits of patient-centred care models, and barriers to patient adherence to treatment. The findings suggest that regular monitoring of patients with diabetes mellitus is necessary to achieve optimal glycaemic control, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels. Telemedicine consultations are a viable alternative to face-to-face consultations and can improve access to specialist diabetes care, particularly for patients in remote or rural areas. Patient-centred care models can improve diabetes care by promoting patient engagement and self-management, and involvement of specialist nurses can improve diabetes care outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. This studys findings highlight the need for primary care settings to adopt evidence-based practises to improve diabetes treatment outcomes and reduce the financial burden of the disease on healthcare systems.

Abstract: This project provided real-world conditions with a national sample that allowed us to empirically investigate the role of anxiety among employee assistance program (EAP) users. This study is based on 20,725 clients who used a national EAP service during parts of 2022 and 2023 for mental health counseling (96%) or coaching (4%). All clients had completed a standardized measure for anxiety risk (GAD-2), depression disorder (PHQ-2), the extent of hazardous alcohol use (AUDIT-C), and two aspects of employee work performance (WOS absenteeism and presenteeism). The primary finding was 42% of EAP clients had a clinical level of anxiety symptoms at the start of use. This is about four times higher than the typical working adult in the United States. In addition, 30% had a clinical level of depression, and there was substantial comorbidity between anxiety and depression (r = .54). Only 13% of clients had alcohol misuse as a clinical problem and it had little overlap with anxiety (r = .10). Thus, anxiety is one of the most common psychiatric disorders among users of counseling and coaching services. Only 14% of clients contacted the EAP specifically for assistance with an anxiety related issue.
