(EN) (PDF) – An Introduction to Plastic Recycling | Plastic Waste Management Institute

“Waste is now a global problem, and one that must be addressed in order to solve the world’s resource and energy challenges. Plastics are made from limited resources such as petroleum, and huge advances are being made in the development of technologies to recycle plastic waste among other resources. Mechanical recycling methods to make plastic products and feedstock recycling methods that use plastic as a raw material in the chemical industry have been widely adopted, and awareness has also grown recently of the importance of Thermal recycling as a means of using plastics as an energy source to conserve petroleum resources.

Japan is pursuing measures to create a recycling-oriented society in order to achieve sustainable development. Since the Basic Law for Promoting the Creation of a Recycling-oriented Society was enacted in 2000, a number of recycling-related laws have been enacted, come into force, been reviewed and amended. Based on this framework, action to promote the “three Rs” – i.e. reduction and reuse as well as recycling of waste has been stepped up to ensure a more effective use of resources. Meanwhile, the Ministry of the Environment continues to restrict final disposal sites and to direct incineration plants and similar sites that can emit toxins such as dioxins. Now that these are recognized as safe, the basic policy stated in the Waste Disposal Law was amended in May 2005 to say that “first, emission of …”

(EN) (PDF) – Chromatography Glossary | zirchrom.com

“The first glossary of common and not-so-common terms and buzzwords for reference to high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) columns and column technology was published in 1988 (1). It is time for an update because
• many new terms have arisen or, in some cases, their original meanings have expanded or changed;
• the various techniques of capillary electrophoresis (CE) have become well developed and are used in many laboratories throughout the world; and
• the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) published its massive undertaking titled “Nomenclature for Chromatography,” which provides guidance and changes in some of the more commonly accepted terms (2).

(EN) (PDF) – Precision agriculture: an opportunity for EU farmers? | ec.europa.eu

“The JRC has recently released a report on the potential use of precision agriculture to help implement the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), upon the request of the European Parliament’s Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development.

Precision agriculture is the application of technologies and agronomic principles to manage spatial and temporal variability associated with all aspects of agricultural production – crops and animal – for the purpose of improving performance, production, and economic and environmental quality. It uses information technology, satellite positioning systems and remote sensing.
The report confirms that precision agriculture can play a substantial role in meeting the increasing demand for food while ensuring sustainable use of natural resources and the environment. Nevertheless, the size and diversity of farm structures make its adoption in Europe challenging. The report proposes some recommendations, such as awareness-raising and information campaigns among farmers, the provision of appropriate guidelines, and an EU ‘precision farming calculator’ tool which would bring decision-support value to farmers and advisers. This should be accompanied by research and …”

“The following pages are by no means an unabridged horological glossary, which could fill volumes. It is rather an easy reference guide for new watch enthusiasts, a helping hand as it were. The next 30 pages contain some of the more common vernacular used within the pages of our catalogues as well as approximately 350 illustrations. As we are firm believers in the old adage “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing”, we are currently working on a constantly evolving horological lexicon and database which will be available at www.antiquorum.com. We will be keeping you abreast of further developments on this project in future issues of the Vox magazine. Until then, we hope the following will be useful to those of you who have just joined us in the world of horology.”

(ES) (PDF) – El inglés, idioma internacional de la medicina. Causas y consecuencia de un fenómeno actual | Fernando A. Navarro

“Una de las características más destacadas del lenguaje médico en el último tercio de este siglo XX, ha sido el predominio absoluto del inglés como único idioma internacional de la medicina. Porque no siempre fue así, por supuesto. Desde el nacimiento de la medicina científica, en la Grecia del siglo V a. de C., el griego fue el idioma de la medicina durante toda la Antigüedad clásica. Incluso a partir del siglo Ia. de C., ya en plena hegemonía económica, política y militar del Imperio Romano, la mayoría de los médicos, como Galeno, continuaron siendo de procedencia helénica, y el griego se mantuvo como el idioma de la medicina y la ciencia. Durante la Edad Media, no es posible ya hablar de un único idioma de la medicina, sino que cabe distinguir al menos tres espacios lingüísticos bien delimitados. En el Imperio Bizantino se mantuvo la vigencia del griego, pero el …”

(EN) (PDF) – A Glossary of Marine Nature Conservation and Fisheries | Stephen J. Lockwood

“The whole field of fisheries is so beset with jargon and acronmyns that for anyone wishing to understand the issue, it can be a nightmare. Add to that increasing calls to protect marine wildlife, which has led to new terminology, particularly relating to the Habitats and Species Directive. At a time when the European Commission is pushing for consideration of the environment alongside all activities (through a process called integration), it is important to ensure that all those involved with fisheries and the environment have a common understanding of terms. This is why this glossary of terms for marine nature conservation and fisheries was commissioned. There has been wide consultation with a cross section of individuals over the definition of terms, which in itself helped increase common understanding. It is of paramount importance that integration of fisheries and the environment occurs in practice, at the grass roots level and not just in principle. We hope that this glossary will help to achieve such an aim.

A number of communications from the European Union stress the importance of disseminating scientific information in a way that is easily understood. The EC Biodiversity Strategy [COM(1998)42] calls on the Community to develop programmes for public information, education and awareness raising on conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. This should also apply to the Commission’s action plan for biodiversity in fisheries. A similar commitment applies in relation to information on the impact of fisheries on marine ecosystems. “

(IT) (PDF) – Adeguamento motocoltivatori e motozappatrici ai requisiti di sicurezza di cui all’allegato V al D.Lgs. 81/08 | inail.it

“I dati degli eventi infortunistici del settore agricolo o forestale evidenziano che il rischio più grave a cui è esposto l’operatore alla guida di motocoltivatori e motozappatrici è rappresentato dal contatto non intenzionale con gli organi lavoranti.

Tale rischio, seppur non eliminabile, può essere significativamente ridotto attraverso l’installazione di opportuni presidi di sicurezza.
Tuttavia, ad oggi, un cospicuo numero di motocoltivatori e motozappatrici risulta non conforme ai requisiti di sicurezza normativamente previsti. Ciò è dovuto anche alla mancanza di precisi indirizzi tecnici applicabili alle differenti tipologie costruttive che caratterizzano il parco macchine circolante.
Per ovviare a tale carenza è stato istituito uno specifico gruppo di lavoro, con l’obiettivo di fornire agli operatori del settore agricolo le informazioni tecniche necessarie per l’adeguamento ai requisiti di sicurezza previsti dall’allegato V al D.lgs. 81/08 s.m.i. di motocoltivatori e motozappatrici costruiti antecedentemente al 21 settembre 1996.”
