Improving the Reliability of Power Supply Systems

The article considers the possibility of improving the reliability of power supply systems. It has proposed to use sectioning devices - recloses for organizing ATS and AR, under voltage protection, overcurrent protection, protection against single-phase earth faults, and connection of new consumers. The level of reliability and quality of power supply of the distribution network assessed, which is carried out according to the indicative indicators SAIFI, SAIDI, RNRE and ARAE, which characterize, respectively, the number and duration of outages in the network for the period under review, the relative efficiency of reconstruction and the average efficiency of the use of reclosers

Clinical features of post-COVID-19 period. Results of the international register “Dynamic analysis of comorbidities in SARS-CoV-2 survivors (AKTIV SARS-CoV-2)”. Data from 6-month follow-up

Aim. To study the clinical course specifics of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and comorbid conditions in COVID-19 survivors 3, 6, 12 months after recovery in the Eurasian region according to the AKTIV register. Material and methods.The AKTIV register was created at the initiative of the Eurasian Association of Therapists. The AKTIV register is divided into 2 parts: AKTIV 1 and AKTIV 2. The AKTIV 1 register currently includes 6300 patients, while in AKTIV 2 — 2770. Patients diagnosed with COVID-19 receiving in- and outpatient treatment have been anonymously included on the registry. The following 7 countries participated in the register: Russian Federation, Republic of Armenia, Republic of Belarus, Republic of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Republic of Moldova, Republic of Uzbekistan. This closed multicenter register with two nonoverlapping branches (in- and outpatient branch) provides 6 visits: 3 in-person visits during the acute period and 3 telephone calls after 3, 6, 12 months. Subject recruitment lasted from June 29, 2020 to October 29, 2020. Register will end on October 29, 2022. A total of 9 fragmentary analyzes of the registry data are planned. This fragment of the study presents the results of the post-hospitalization period in COVID-19 survivors after 3 and 6 months. Results. According to the AKTIV register, patients after COVID-19 are characterized by long-term persistent symptoms and frequent seeking for unscheduled medical care, including rehospitalizations. The most common causes of unplanned medical care are uncontrolled hypertension (HTN) and chronic coronary artery disease (CAD) and/or decompensated type 2 diabetes (T2D). During 3- and 6-month follow-up after hospitalization, 5,6% and 6,4% of patients were diagnosed with other diseases, which were more often presented by HTN, T2D, and CAD. The mortality rate of patients in the post-hospitalization period was 1,9% in the first 3 months and 0,2% for 4-6 months. The highest mortality rate was observed in the first 3 months in the group of patients with class II-IV heart failure, as well as in patients with cardiovascular diseases and cancer. In the pattern of death causes in the post-hospitalization period, following cardiovascular causes prevailed (31,8%): acute coronary syndrome, stroke, acute heart failure. Conclusion. According to the AKTIV register, the health status of patients after COVID-19 in a serious challenge for healthcare system, which requires planning adequate health system capacity to provide care to patients with COVID-19 in both acute and post-hospitalization period

Determination of the Degree of Regeneration of Fluoride Ammonium

The invention relates to the field of hydrometallurgy of precious metals and can be used to extract gold from the tails of gold mining factories. The objective of the invention is the additional extraction of gold from the tailings of ores and beneficiation products into commercial products by reducing the sorption activity of the solid phase by increasing the temperature of the pulp

Non-Conventional Solutions to the Problem Treatment of Industrial Waste Water

This article discusses the problems of industrial wastewater treatment, and also provides the results of a theoretical study, thermodynamic substantiation and practical prospects for the use of nitrogen oxides (NO2, NO) instead of SO2 in the regeneration of cyanide solutions of the production of noble metals

ORGANOCHLORINE PESTICIDES POLLUTION OF THE BOTTOM SEDIMENTS OF NAKHODKA BAY AND PARTIZANSKAYA RIVER

Bulletin of the Tomsk Polytechnic University. Geo Аssets Engineering, 2023, vol. 334, no. 9, рр. 25-35. In Rus. Relevance. The new data on the organochlorine pesticides pollution of the bottom sediments of Nakhodka bay and Partizanskaya river were obtained in 2020–2021. The objective of the article is to report the organochlorine pesticides pollution level of the bottom sediments and to define the possible sources of organochlorine pesticides in the marine environment. Techniques: sample collection of bottom sediments, Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry analysis of samples, Gas-liquid Chromatography method with electronic capture detector, statistical processing, assessment of the organochlorine pesticides contamination of sediments. Results. The new data were obtained on the organochlorine pesticides concentrations in Nakhodka bay in 2020–2021. The previous data on the studied area are described. The concentration of HCH pesticides (α- , β- and γ-HCH), DDT and its metabolites was analyzed. It was found that the concentration of α- , β- HCCH and DDT in bottom sediments increased in 2021.To determine the quality of bottom sediments, the average annual values of organochlorine pesticides concentrations in the bottom sediments gathered during the field works were compared with the quality guidelines. There are no approved quality guidelines for maximum permissible concentrations of pollutants in bottom sediments in the Russian Federation. For this reason, we used the quality guidelines applied in foreign countries («Dutch sheets» (Neue Niederlandische Liste. NNL) and Canadian quality standards for marine and estuarine bottom sediments (Canadian Sediment Quality Guidelines, CSQGs). Possible sources of organochlorine pesticides in the marine environment were analyzed. The results of this work showed that despite the ban on the use of these substances, these pesticides are included in the multiple compounds used in different industries and continue to enter and accumulate in the marine environment
