Design and optimization of the concept of a passenger train storage system
The aim of this paper is to design a passenger train storage system. It concerns with the idea of safe storage in public transportation. The design consists of developing a new type of storage system complying with the standards of the European Union (EU) that can improve the railroad transportation system
Passenger train storage system using structural materials
The structural materials remain a challenge for the development of composite passenger train storage system PTSS, especially when composite materials are assembled. The challenge increase when structural materials must be recycled, in aspect of eco-efficiency. The aim of this paper itâs the research of these two aspects with applicability for the passenger train storage
Evaluating the ecotoxicity of different pharmaceuticals using Aliivibrio fischeri bioassays
An endless list of companies have produced a large amount of pharmaceutical compounds in a year-on-year growth trend. Due to the excessive consumption of these substances and the inappropriate disposal, the environment was contaminated, especially aquatic ecosystems, with quantities of pharmaceuticals (PHACs) so that they have affected the living organisms, leading to decreased biodiversity and ecological degradation. Many studies on PHACs environmental presence and toxic effects were performed, but unfortunately, no limit was establish for discharging into environment, especially into the aquatic systems. The aim of this study was to use the bioluminescence of Aliivibrio fischeri bacteria as an indicator of toxically effect of different PHACs in simulated marine medium. The MicrotoxÂź bioassay is based on the PHACs inhibitory effect on the metabolism of bacteria which induced changes in their bacterial bioluminescence. The test organisms were exposed to analgesics and anti-inflammatories such as Diclofenac, Ketoprofen, Naproxen and Ibuprofen. The results showed that based on EC50 values, Naproxen had a very low toxicity but Diclofenac, Ketoprofen and Ibuprofen had a harmful effect on the aquatic organisms
