Decarbonization of Power and Industrial Sectors: The Role of Membrane Processes.

Carbon dioxide (CO) is the single largest contributor to climate change due to its increased emissions since global industrialization began. Carbon Capture, Storage, and Utilization (CCSU) is regarded as a promising strategy to mitigate climate change, reducing the atmospheric concentration of CO from power and industrial activities. Post-combustion carbon capture (PCC) is necessary to implement CCSU into existing facilities without changing the combustion block.

An IoT-Based Ship Berthing Method Using a Set of Ultrasonic Sensors.

It is indisputable that a great deal of brand new technologies such as the internet of things, (IoT) big data, and cloud computing are conquering every aspect of our life. So, in the branch of marine technology, the mentioned technologies are also being applied to obtain more features and to automate marine-related operations as well as creating novel smart devices. As a result of this, traditional ports and ships are being replaced by smart ports and vessels.

[Combined methods of treatment the congenital arterio-venous fistulas of peripheral vessels].

A 10-year experience and results of combined methods of surgical treatment of arterio-venous fistulas of peripheral vessels in 50 patients were analyzed. The patients were systematized on the basis of existing classifications, clinical manifestations of the disease, methods of invasive (ultrasound dopplerography and duplex scanning) and invasive (angiography) examinations. According to many authors no one of conventional methods of surgical treatment of arterio-venous fistulas which are used singly can be effective and must not be recommended as the most optimal.

[Substantiation of surgical decision making in congenital lesions involving the inguinal major vessels n injection drug abusers].

The article is dedicated to surgical policy pursued in lesions involving femoral major vessels in the inguinal region, having developed due to long-term abuse of injection narcotic drugs. Analysed herein are the outcomes of surgical management of thirty-one patients presenting with a pulsating haematoma and inguinal pseudoaneurysms of post-injection aetiology. According to the authors' opinion, choosing the appropriate scope of the would-be operation is too complicated largely due to peculiarities of the pyo-necrotic process in this zone.

[The combined strategy in treatment of lymphangiodysplasia].

The experience of treatment of a rare form of pathology of the lymphatic system was analyzed. The surgical tactics, depending on both the dimentions and the form of lymphangiodysplasia, were described. The absence of the pain sensitivity and large tumor size were the main reason of medical help seeking for the patients on the late stages of the disease.
