The new maintenance engineers become self-taught and learn from daily dedication, from solving repetitive problems, from exchanging experiences with a colleague, from reading a recommended book and little else. Their own experience has been the main reference for maintenance professionals who have not given up and have become experts. And within the maintenance activities, sanitary engineering plays a very important role.

The paper presents a proposal to modify a field method of testing the condition of activated sludge using a 30-min volume of sludge (settling test). To verify the validity of the modified method of testing the condition of activated sludge, field tests were performed in two onsite wastewater treatment plants. In these plants, the reaction chambers were fed by gravity from the primary sedimentation tank throughout the day.

Portugal is commonly recognized as one of the best drug policy examples in the world. Nonetheless, contrasts between drug use risks in rural vs urban settings in the country is an understudied topic, even if its specific challenges are commonly affirmed, both by professionals and people who use drugs (PWUD). The aim of this study was to compare rural and urban environments concerning socio-sanitary services availability; illegal drugs availability; risk behaviors related to drug use; stigma associated with illicit drug use; and social support.

Extensive research across European cities underscores the importance of assessing urbanization's impact on flood risk, focusing on river-induced floods and impermeable areas. Using advanced statistical tools, we investigated urban green coverage, Urban Morphological Zones (UMZ), and sealing (imperviousness) levels and effects. Our analysis found that Continuous Urban Fabric (sealed surface >80%) and Discontinuous Dense Urban Fabric (sealed surface 50%-80%) showed negative relationships within river flooding risk.

Aims: Few prior studies have explored the relationship between phenylalanine and diabetic small vessel disease (SVD) in patients with different durations of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). Our study aimed to explore whether phenylalanine is associated with the risk of SVD and to further explore whether phenylalanine interacted with the duration of T2DM to alter the risk of SVD.
Materials And Methods: A total of 1,032 T2DM patients were enrolled using the Liaoning Medical University First Affiliated Hospital (LMUFAH) system.
