Sustainable and green removal of arsenic from crude tin via vacuum gasification–directional condensation

In the realm of high–tech industries, Sn has emerged as an indispensable strategic metal. However, the pyrometallurgical refining process of crude Sn is marred by the production of a substantial amount of hazardous solid waste, notably As–Al slag, posing a direct threat to the ecological safety of the production areas. This study delineates a novel process for the removal of As from crude Sn, employing vacuum gasification–directional condensation, corroborated by theoretical calculations and laboratory experimental research. Theoretically, at a system pressure ranging from 1–10 Pa, the initial volatilization temperatures of Sn and As exhibit significant variance. However, the formation of intermetallic compounds can induce Sn volatilization. Experimentally, the condensation temperature for As was predominantly within 331.7–484.7 K. During the vacuum gasification–directional condensation process, the presence of Sn4As3 intermetallic compounds impeded As volatilization. And under optimal conditions, the As content in the Sn product was recorded at 0.0053 %. Inspired from the calculations, a multistage vacuum distillation method was successfully proposed and achieved to remove As from crude tin. Typically, the total material recovery rate is 99.96 %, and the direct rate of Sn is 93.02 %. The total power consumption and emission of this process are better than the corresponding parameters of other treatment processes, which is a promising solution for the cleaning and effective removal of As.

Physiological and hygienic assessment of a multilayer set of personal protective equipment against low temperatures made using membrane materials

Introduction. Advanced personal protective equipment (PPE) against low temperatures is a high–tech product created using the latest achievements of science, design designs, ergonomic, aesthetic solutions that determine its thermal protection properties. The use of membrane materials in PPE from low temperatures allows them to combine low weight and high thermal protection properties, low air permeability and sufficient vapor permeability necessary to ensure heat and moisture exchange between humans and the environment. The study aims to determine the thermal protection properties of various sets of multilayer workwear and indicators of heat and moisture exchange of volunteers when modeling professional activity at low air temperature. Materials and methods. The authors have conducted a study in a microclimatic chamber with the participation of six practically healthy male volunteers. The researchers have determined the thermal protection properties of multilayer workwear of various configurations in accordance with GOST R 12.4.185-99 and MUK 4.3.1894-04. As test samples, they have used pipes of three different configurations to protect against low temperatures, wind, water, general industrial pollution and mechanical influences, as well as short-term exposure to open fire. The assessment of heat and moisture exchange indicators of various PPE configurations was carried out by specialists when modeling work activities with measurements of the relative humidity level in the layers of the kits and the level of accumulated moisture in each element of the PPE. Results. The authors have determined the values of thermal insulation of the studied materials and the scope of their application. To assess heat and moisture exchange, two samples of PPE were selected, made using membrane and cotton fabrics with similar thermal insulation values. The analysis of the results of studies of moisture exchange indicators showed a slightly lower efficiency of moisture evaporation of the control sample. The indicator of the relative humidity of the air under the shelter space and between the layers of the package of materials and clothing has shown its informative significance for assessing the effectiveness of moisture transfer from the surface of the human body to the environment. Conclusion. The results of a physiological and hygienic assessment of a set of multilayer clothing made of membrane materials have shown that various combinations of its constituent elements make it possible to create kits that provide adequate protection for an employee in a wide range of air temperatures and wind speeds. The use of membrane materials in combination with structural elements (ventilation openings) provides a more efficient transfer of moisture from the skin surface to the external environment, as evidenced by the values of the relative humidity index of the air under the clothing space and between the layers of clothing. Ethics. The study was approved by the local Ethical committee of the Izmerov Research Institute of Occupational Health (Minutes of the meeting No. 6 dated 07/20/12)

It is noted that due to the increase in the number of "high tech" companies, the question arises not only of the control of their chain of exchange of goods/works/services, but also of determining the rules for calculating the taxes. In this regard, the aim of the article is to develop a methodology for determining the tax liabilities when identifying transactions carried out with "high tech" companies based on an analysis of existing judicial practice. The object of scientific work is a set of socio-economic relations that arise in the process of determining the BOTTOM. The subject of the study is the methodology for determining the actual tax liabilities (BOTTOM) in transactions with "high tech" companies. The research methodology is based on the use of tools and methods for the analysis and synthesis of judicial practice, tabular and graphical methods of data visualization. The scientific novelty of this study lies in the adaptation of the general conceptual methodology for determining the actual tax obligations of Tikhonova A.V. in relation to such a type of tax schemes as a transaction with high tech companies. In the end of the article, transactions with "high tech" companies were classified, the basic method of calculating the BOTTOM for each of the types of transactions considered was determined, the main risk markers of tax evasion schemes in transactions with "high tech" companies were identified, and measures of the tax authority to prove the fact of participation of a "high tech" organization in the transaction were formulated. Thus, the article has meaningful practical significance and will be useful to a wide range of specialists from both tax authorities and consulting organizations.

Negative Impacts of the High-Tech Implementation in the Russian Higher Education Sector

Introduction. The institute of education in modern society is currently in the process of serious transformation associated with the large-scale introduction of high technologies, which is due to a similar process in post-industrial society as a whole. There is a growing understanding of the negative consequences of digitalization of society and education along with the understanding of the objective necessity of such transformation. The article contains an analysis of the negative consequences and problems arising in the course of the spread of digitalization of higher education in Russia. Methodology and sources. The methodology of the research is based on the methods of comparative analysis and extrapolation of transformations of social environment and anthropological factors under the influence of technological progress in the field of higher education. The signs of “high technology poisoning” considered by J. Naisbitt in his book “High Tech – High Touch: Technology and Our Search for Meaning” and the concept of extensive and intensive types of creativity formulated by A.I. Stoletov are a conceptual basis for analyzing the impact of high technology on education. Results and Discussion. Seven symptoms of technological poisoning in higher education, representing the main risks of the modern educational system, their manifestations in the educational process and prospects in case the existing trend persists, have been considered. One of the sources of manifestation of these symptoms is the extensive character of creativity inherent in scientific and technological activity of the society, which stakes on innovative development and mastering of material aspects of nature. The technogenic character of the emerging innovation process levels out the activities associated with the intensive type of creativity, aimed at the meaning-creating and existential aspects of human existence. Conclusion. Minimization of negative consequences presupposes the strengthening of the humanitarian component in education, allowing to form a culture of “pause of contemplation” (Grigory Pomerantz), in which technology will acquire, as it was suggested by J. Naisbitt himself, a fullness of meaning that goes beyond instrumental values into the realm of ethical and existential ones.

Clean and sustainable elimination of arsenic–aluminum slag from smelted crude tin via vacuum volatilization – Fractional condensation

In high–tech industries, Sn is an indispensable strategic metal. However, the pyrometallurgical refining process of crude Sn is marred by the production of a substantial amount of hazardous solid waste, primarily As–Al slag, which poses a direct threat to the ecological safety of production areas. To address this problem, this study developed a novel process for that eliminates As–Al slag from a source of crude Sn by employing a vacuum volatilization – fractional condensation process, which was validated by theoretical calculations and laboratory experiments. Theoretically, at system pressures in the 1–10 Pa, the initial volatilization temperatures of Sn, Sb, and As vary significantly. However, the formation of intermetallic compounds can induce the volatilization of Sn. Experimentally, the condensation temperature for Sb was predominantly between 603 K and 810 K, and that for As was between 331.7 K and 484.7 K, which are significantly different ranges. Under optimal experimental conditions, the separation rate of Sb in the Sn–Sb alloy was 93.92%, and the resultant Sn product contained 0.0143% Sb. During the volatilization of the Sn–As alloy, the presence of Sn4As3 compounds impeded the volatilization of As; hoewver, the As content in the Sn product was 0.0053%. In the directional condensation of the As–Sb alloy, the condensation temperatures for As and Sb were similar to those of the pure metals, yielding As and Sb products with purities of 99.99% and 99.95%, respectively. Industrial production trials treating HACT via a continuous vacuum separation – intermittent vacuum separation process achieved direct recovery rates of 72.99% for Sn and 71.15% for Sb, with a total energy consumption as low as 1086 kWh/t. Similarly, the treatment of LACT via a multi–stage continuous vacuum separation process yielded residues that satisfied production standards at a treatment cost of 1187 RMB/t. This entire process requiresno additives, and substantially mitigates the generation of As–Al slag at the source.

Examining Dual-Moderation of Structure Racism, Economic Fragility, High Tech Startup’s Team Diversity and Performance

This study has been conducted to examine the dual moderation of structural racism and economic fragility between team diversity and startup team performance. Team diversity is particularly important for new ventures or startups as the need or focus of such startups is on a diverse range of consumers. The role of racism and economic fragility cannot be ignored in this regard. To conduct this research the targeted population is the high-tech startups in France. For data collection, 351 questionnaires were received and processed for data analysis. The results indicated a significant impact of team diversity on startup team performance. The moderating role of structural racism was also significant between team diversity and startup team performance. Whereas, economic fragility also significantly moderates the relationship between team diversity and startup team performance. The practical importance of this study is greatly implied in those startups which incorporate diversity in their workplace. The policymakers are also devoted to performing their part concerning the policies that are being formulated to encourage and promote diversity in the workplace as well as in educational settings. Theoretically, this research contributes to the growing body of literature regarding startup performances. However, most of the high-tech startups in France did not contain the required data for gaining clear facts and figures. This limitation can be catered to in the future by targeting more advanced high-tech startups in France.

Legal Issues Involved in Electronic Payments System in India

The Indian economy has developed rapidly after the induction of digital interfaces in commerce, trade, and industry particularly after the popularisation of electronic payment systems or digital banking. Since 2016 when the Government of India announced demonetization, electronic payments have been rising and are expected to continue in the future because the government has promoted these types of payments. Internet penetration in India was 47 percent in 2022 and it was more than 100 percent in urban areas as compared to rural areas, now with the expansion of the information technology-enabled generation which is using digital modes of payments more in their daily transactions has resulted in more than 140 crore rupees each day through various methods of digital prevailing in India. State Governments are also prioritizing and making more efforts to ensure that the unprivileged people should have to be provided access to web services so that they may also make payments conciliatory through this method. Resultantly, there are 103 billion digital transactions worth Indian rupee 166 trillion in the financial year 2023. It is also expected that digital transactions will also rise to 411 trillion by the year 2027. Consequently, on advent of high tech system of fund transfer and its enormous use several cases of fraud have also been taking place on daily basis. The legislation has enacted various laws in connivance with the global laws, to resolve the problem, but they are still prevailing. The present study has been conducted to identify the legal issues and the results arising from these issues and to recommend some pathways to recover from these obstacles. This study further explains the further way to improvement in fund transfer and making payments using digital mode. Consequently, it is found that the present legal system does not have sufficient provisions to stop such fraud, and blockage of money with the UPI, payment gateways, banks, and merchants. There is no single online solution to these problems. The banking ombudsman is working on resolving some of the issues, but due to the red tapism, such transactions of payment failure and fraud websites could not be resolved. Sufficient amendments dealing with such transactions have not been incorporated in the present Consumer Protection Act. Hence, it is recommended that there should be a virtual hearing in the office of the ombudsman as well as in the court of President Consumers Protection.

Modeling of effective management of logistics supply of an industrial enterprise

Introduction. The economy and industry, which show a tendency to grow even in wartime, will require improved logistics and improved infrastructure. The implementation of such measures is based on scientifically based solutions in the effective management of high-tech (HT) production within the logistics management of integrated supply chains. The purpose of the paper is to determine an effective approach to inventory management at a high-tech industrial enterprise within the framework of developing a scientifically based inventory management strategy using the analysis of existing models. Results. The paper presents an analysis of the main models of operational inventory management of a high-tech enterprise: a single-product statistical model with deterministic demand, a model in the case of accounting for unsatisfied requirements, a model of inventory management based on random demand, a model in the case of loss of unsatisfied requirements, a model of a production system with periodic checks in case of random demand. It is emphasized that inventory management consists in establishing the moments and volumes of the order for their occupancy and distribution along the chains of the supply subsystem within the framework of strategic management. There is an orientation towards cost minimization. The whole inventory management process is imagined as a component of the supply-production-marketing system, which is managed on the basis of a complex logistics approach.Accounting for the features of each subsystem - supply, production, sales, as well as optimal management of resources, is based on cost minimization and leads to high-quality satisfaction of demand for ready-made innovative products with sufficient economic effect. Conclusion. Inventory management consists in establishing the moments and volumes of the order for their filling and distribution among the links of the supply subsystem. The listed inventory management models are intended for practical use, others are of interest because they allow you to understand the essence and identify the main properties of the inventory management system. Accounting for the specifics of each subsystem (supply, production, sales), as well as competent management of their resources, flows (financial, material, information), based on cost minimization, ultimately leads to the main goal of the IT of an industrial enterprise - high-quality satisfaction of demand for finished products with maximum economic effect.

Implementation of remote home care: assessment guided by the RE-AIM framework

BackgroundWelfare technology interventions have become increasingly important in home-based palliative care for facilitating safe, time-efficient, and cost-effective methods to support patients living independently. However, studies evaluating the implementation of welfare technology innovations are scarce, and the empirical evidence for sustainable models using technology in home-based palliative care remains low. This study aimed to report on the use of the Reach Effectiveness Adoption Implementation Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework to assess the implementation of remote home care (RHC) a technology-mediated service for home-living patients in the palliative phase of cancer. Furthermore, it aimed to explore areas of particular importance determining the sustainability of technologies for remote palliative home-based care.MethodsA secondary analysis of data collected by semi-structured interviews with patients with cancer in the palliative phase, focus groups, and semi-structured interviews with healthcare professionals (HCPs) experienced with RHC was performed. A deductive reflexive thematic analysis using RE-AIM dimensions was conducted.ResultsFive themes illustrating the five RE-AIM dimensions were identified: (1) Reach: protective actions in recruitment - gatekeeping, (2) Effectiveness: potential to offer person-centered care, (3) Adoption: balancing high touch with high tech, (4) Implementation: moving towards a common understanding, and (5) Maintenance: adjusting to what really matters. The RE-AIM framework highlighted that RHC implementation for patients in the palliative phase of cancer was influenced by HCP gatekeeping behavior, concerns regarding abandoning palliative care as a high-touch specialty, and a lack of competence in palliative care. Although RHC facilitated improved routines in patients’ daily lives, it was perceived as a static service unable to keep pace with disease progression.ConclusionsA person-centered approach that prioritizes individual needs and preferences is necessary for providing optimal care. Although technologies such as RHC are not a panacea, they can be integrated as support for increasingly strained health services.

P896 You Can Lead a Horse to Water But You Can’t Make it Drink: A Study on Medication Adherence of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients in Ireland

Abstract Background Medication adherence is important in ensuring adequate treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). The High Tech Hub (HTH) is an online system used in Ireland to prescribe and monitor the ordering of High-Tech Medication, specifically oral small molecules and subcutaneously-delivered biologics. We aimed to observe compliance rates of treatment in our centre, observe trends between different medication and identify factors associated with adherence. Methods We extracted prescribing and medication dispensing information from the HTH database for our centre between May and November 2023. We collected information on patient demographics such as age and gender, patient disease subtype, medication class and duration of prescription given against the duration of prescription collected by the patient with an 85% threshold as a marker of compliance to treatment. Statistical analysis was used to compare differences in adherence between subsets of the population and a multivariate regression model was used to identify factors associated with adherence. Results We extracted information from 824 prescriptions from 644 unique patients. The median age was 42 years (IQR 32-52) with 52.2% males. 60.7% (n=391) had Crohn’s Disease, 33.4% (n=215) had Ulcerative Colitis and 3.1% (n=20) had IBD-U. Majority of patients, 77.3% (n=498), were on Anti-TNF medication, followed by 13.2% (n=75) on anti-Interleukins, 6.2% (n=40) on JAK Inhibitors and 3.3% (n=21) Anti-Integrins. 6.5% (n=42) of patients required dose optimization during the 6-month observation and 1.7% (n=11) required a change of medication. 9.5% (n=61) of patients collected prescriptions for steroids. Further analysis demonstrated no significant difference in adherence within gender (Male: 61.0% vs. Female 53.6%, p=0.056), age (<25 years: 66.2%, 25-39 years: 55.0%, 40-54 years: 58.6%, ≥55 years: 54.6%, p=0.346), disease type (Crohn’s: 58.6%, Ulcerative Colitis: 56.7%, IBD-U: 50%, p=0.776), medication class (Anti-TNF: 56.4%, Anti-Interleukin: 65.9%, Anti-Integrin: 57.1%, JAK Inhibitor: 52.5%, p=0.378). However, we found significant lower adherence rates in patients who required dose optimization (21.4% vs. 60.0%, p<0.001) and those who required a change in medication (18.2% vs. 58.1%, p=0.008) in the observation window. There was also a lower rate of adherence noted in those who received prescriptions for steroids (45.9% vs 58.9%, p=0.051). Conclusion There was a high rate of non-adherence noted in our IBD population, worse in those who ended up requiring dose optimization or change in therapy. Addressing compliance by monitoring the online dispensing of medication may be a useful way to ensure adequate treatment and avoid unnecessary treatment escalation.

United States’ 2050 carbon neutrality: Myth or reality? Evaluating the impact of high-tech industries and green electricity

Despite its economic prosperity, the United States has encountered challenges in promoting ecological quality. Therefore, it is imperative for the United States to acknowledge that maintaining its economic accomplishments requires concurrent efforts to safeguard its ecological quality. To solve this challenge, this study aims to scrutinize the impact of green electricity, globalization (in terms of trade and finance), and high technology on the United States' load capacity factor. Employing quarterly frequency data spanning from 1990 to 2020, this research utilizes cutting-edge quantile-based econometric techniques, including wavelet quantile regression, which effectively captures interrelationships across various periods and quantiles. Additionally, it employs quantile causality and quantile-on-quantile regression methods, robust in handling nonlinearity, to assess the ecological repercussions of these variables. The overarching findings reveal that, high tech, financial development, economic growth, and globalization (both in trade and finance) lessen ecological quality. Conversely, green electricity consumption consistently promotes ecological quality. Furthermore, the quantile causality results unveil evidence of feedback causality between the load capacity factor and its drivers, underpinning the need for policy formulation based on these findings.
