Ciprofloxacin and carbamazepine adsorption on activated carbons produced from l...

Ciprofloxacin and carbamazepine adsorption was studied using an activated carbon produced from leather residues (wet white shavings) and a commercially available activated carbon (Norit ROW 0.8) and the effect of pH level was studied. The activated carbon produced from wet white shavings showed better results due to its higher specific surface area, confirming that leather residues are a viable precursor for th...

Design and evaluation of a choreography-based virtual reality authoring tool fo...

The use of virtual reality (VR) for industrial training helps minimize risks and costs by allowing more frequent and varied use of experiential learning activities, leading to active and improved learning. However, creating VR training experiences is costly and time-consuming, requiring software development experts. Additionally, current authoring tools lack integration with existing data and are desktop-orient...

Activated Carbon Produced from Tanning Industry Residues Used to Remove Carbama...

According to UNESCO, emerging pollutants are posing a threat to ecosystems and human health. These compounds can be either synthetic or natural chemicals or microorganisms, that are not usually regulated, and can be found in hospital wastewater, even after conventional treatment processes. Carbamazepine is a mood stabilizing drug and an anticonvulsant. Due to its persistence, carbamazepine is one of the most fr...

Weather and climate versus mortality in Lisbon (Portugal) since the 19th century

A renewed interest on the impacts of climate change has spurred several studies on climate/health relationships. This study aims to detect and explain any changes in the relationships between climate and mortality in Lisbon from 1835 until 2012. The evaluation of mortality seasonal rhythms over time is based on the 100-Index per decades, annual Winter-Summer ratio, as well as other descriptive statistics. A cha...

Climatic extremes in Portugal in the 1780s based on documentary and instrumenta...

The final stage of the Little Ice Age in Europe was characterized by strong climatic variability. New documentary sources containing information referring to weather and climate are used in this study to reconstruct and to describe climate conditions in Portugal during the 18th century, mainly in the 1780s. Indexation of documentary data concerning hydric and thermal conditions was based on C. Pfister’s methodo...
