Parasitism and Disjunctivism in Nyāya Epistemology

This article examines a number of arguments I collectively term arguments from parasitism, which Nyāya employs to illustrate that rational reflection, the institution of language, and even error itself presuppose a ground-level basis of veridical cognitive interaction with the world. It further suggests that by such arguments, coupled with its stress on the inerrancy of pramāṇ as, Nyāya anticipates and supports the contemporary philosophical movement known as (epistemological) disjunctivism

Comment and Discussion: Pramāņa Are Factive - A Response to Jonardon Ganeri

In this article, the author discusses aspects of the review made by Jonardan Ganeri on the collaborative translation of the first chapter of “Epistemology of Perception: Ga·ngeśa’s Tattvacintāma·ni, Jewel of Reflection on the Truth (About Epistemology): The Perception Chapter (Pratyak·sa-Kha·n·da),” by Stephen Phillips and N. S. Ramanuja Tatacharya. The author says that Ganeri argues in opposition of Phillips’ and Ramanuja Tatacharya’ interpretation on the nature of pramā·n

Assessment Lagging Performance Indicators of Cooling Tower Water Wastage at Refinery (Parco) & Possible Upgradations to Eco Design for Water Conservation

About 20% of energy in manufacturing is connected to refrigeration, heating water, the purpose of this research is to save environment by conserving water losses and these has to be replenished. Monitor rate of evaporation make up and blow down water superiority to authorize that the up-gradated structure is acting as predicted. Increasingly the most forward thinking using highly treated recycled water, side filtration, and option of ozone treatment, changing behavior of blow-down and replacing water saving equipment’s or modifying to reduce energy in addition water needs, which save budgets in addition recover water management in the future. This will address the problems found through an environmental review of current and future cooling systems, the technological, economic and environmental implications, with possible technical and non-technical solutions. Considering the current water crisis around the world, it is essential to expand the functions of these wet refrigeration towers to decrease their water consumption with maintaining their performance, therefore it has a great potential to recycle water evaporation. Which has not considered so far? This retrofit research using possible up-gradations at different research study, Reference [22] at existing facility regarding environment improvements (sustainability & water conservation) to perform a realistic evaluation of this idea. Experimental data measured and dynamic Eco approaches performed to evaluate the water saving potential. The result shows that water losses at one unit control from maximum (440) to minimum 108level to promote environment sustainability

TATALAKSANA DISINFEKSI BANDAR UDARA SAAT PANDEMIK COVID-19

Adanya bandar udara internasional maka transmisi penyakit COVID-19 dengan mudah dapat terjadi di negara-negara lain sehingga dinyatakan sebagai pandemi oleh World Health Organization. Mempertimbangkan bahwa bandar udara dapat menjadi port of entry suatu penyakit infeksius, maka penting bagi stakeholder bandar udara untuk memiliki tatalaksana disinfeksi yang tepat dan efektif dalam rangka mencegah transmisi Covid-19. Setiap bandar udara, terutama yang internasional, penting untuk menerapkan prosedur dan panduan cara disinfeksi yang baik dan benar, disesuaikan dengan kemampuan dan kebutuhan masing-masing, guna mencegah penyebaran Covid-19 lebih lanjut dinegara asal maupun dinegara tujua

PENGARUH MOTIVASI BELAJAR TERHADAP HASIL BELAJAR SISWA SMP PADA MATERI STATISTIKA

Covid-19 is a rapidly growing outbreak around the world, one of the obvious impacts is the education sector. Inadequate education affects the learning outcomes of learners. One of the factors that affect student learning outcomes is the presence of motivation that comes from the student itself. Without the willingness to learn, it can be difficult for students to know what to learn and why they need to learn it. The research used is correlational and ex-post facto research using quantitative approaches that aim to find out whether students' learning outcomes in statistical material have an effect on learning motivation. The subjects used in the study were class IX students consisting of 6 students including 3 women and 3 men. Research instruments conducted using student motivation scale questionnaires and written tests of statistical material. The data analysis technique used in this study is a simple linear regression analysis using an average percentage of motivational indicators and spsss statistic 25 software. The results of the study proved that there was an influence of 62.2% between learning motivation and student learning outcomes

Draft genome sequence of a Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) isolate (ST38 O1:H15) from Pakistan, an emerging MDR sequence type with a high virulence profile

Sequence type (ST) 38 is considered a UPEC/EAEC hybrid associated with multi-drug resistance and urinary tract infections (UTIs). The draft genome sequence of UEC59 from a female in Pakistan revealed a 5324938 bp genome with 5386 CDS, 86 tRNA genes, and multiple antibiotic resistance genes (blaTEM-1, CMY-2, sul1, sul2, dfrA17, tetA, mphA) and mobile elements (int1, two transposons, 30 IS elements, one ICE, four plasmids, five prophages), along with many virulence genes

Choices to Decrease Cooling Tower Water Wastage in Fertilizer Plants (Lagging KPIs)

Water recognizes our planet gap with all the others we think about. There are numerous districts where our freshwater assets are lacking to meet natural needs and thus we all associated with inquire about discover approaches to evacuate these imperatives. We face various difficulties in doing that, particularly since 1965, the paper Water reserve Exploration has assumed a significant profession in revealing and scattering existing study. This paper recognizes the issues confronting water today and future research expected to more readily advise the individuals who endeavor to make a progressively manageable and attractive future. In fertilizer lagging key performance indicators at cooling tower water wastages addressed by experimentally to overcome the evaporation, blow-down and make-up water losses from maximum (576 ) to minimum 288 level to promote environment sustainability
