This document is a guide to achieving operational efficiency through best practices in operations and maintenance (O&M). It was prepared by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory for the Federal Energy Management Program. The guide consists of 11 chapters that cover topics such as why O&M is important, O&M management, computerized maintenance management systems, types of maintenance programs, predictive maintenance technologies, commissioning existing buildings, metering for O&M, and O&M ideas for major equipment types. The target audience includes federal O&M and energy managers.
The preventive maintenance program is developed using a guided logic approach and is task oriented rather than maintenance process oriented. This eliminates the confusion associated with the various interpretations across different industries of terms such as condition monitoring, on condition, hard time, etc. By using a task oriented concept, it is possible to see the whole maintenance program reflected for a given item. A decision logic tree is used to identify applicable maintenance tasks. Servicing and lubrication are included as part of the logic diagram as this ensures that an important task category is considered each time an item is analyzed.
Maintenance Program Content
The content of the maintenance program itself consists of two groups of tasks.
• A group of preventive maintenance tasks, which include failure-finding tasks, scheduled to be accomplished at specified intervals, or based on condition. The objective of these tasks is to identify and prevent deterioration below inherent safety and reliability levels by one or more of the following means:
o Lubrication/servicing;
o Operational/visual/automated check;
o Inspection/functional test/condition monitoring;
o Restoration;
o Discard.
It is this group of tasks, which is determined by RCM analysis, e. it comprises the RCM based preventive maintenance program.
• A group of non scheduled maintenance tasks which result from:
• Findings from the scheduled tasks accomplished at specified intervals of time or usage;
• Reports of malfunctions or indications of impending failure (including automated detection).
The objective of this second group of tasks is to maintain or restore the equipment to an acceptable condition in which it can perform its required function.
An effective program is one that schedules only those tasks necessary to meet the stated objectives. It does not schedule additional tasks that will increase maintenance costs without a corresponding increase in protection of the inherent level of reliability. Experience has clearly demonstrated that reliability decreases when inappropriate or unnecessary maintenance tasks are performed, due to increased incidence of maintainer-induced faults.

Equipment downtime is a major cause of productivity loss for manufacturers. Poorly maintained equipment leads to reduced output, lost revenue from missing production targets, and high inventory levels. It also causes confusion on the shop floor. Most manufacturers, especially small ones, rely on a breakdown maintenance approach rather than proactively maintaining equipment. This puts them at risk of losing control over their equipment performance. The document provides tips for both short-term and long-term improvement of equipment management, including measuring overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), addressing bottlenecks, preventative maintenance, and total productive maintenance (TPM) initiatives.
The document discusses Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) as a measurement used in Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) programs to indicate machine performance. OEE is calculated by measuring availability, performance, and quality. Availability looks at uptime versus downtime. Performance compares actual output to potential output. Quality compares good units to total units. Together these measure how close a machine operates to its ideal potential. Losses that reduce OEE include downtime from failures and setups, minor stoppages, reduced speeds, and defects from scrap and startups. Regular OEE measurement allows identifying issues and tracking improvement efforts.

Optimization on performance of single-slope solar still linked solar pond via...Er.JOE.S 09943145604
This document describes an experiment to optimize the performance of a single-slope solar still linked to a mini solar pond using Taguchi method. Four parameters were identified that influence the solar still's performance: sodium chloride concentration, the zone in the mini solar pond the still is linked to, the angle of a reflecting mirror at the bottom of the still, and the angle of a reflecting mirror in the pond. Different levels of each parameter were tested. The Taguchi method was used to analyze the results and identify the best performing levels for each parameter. Combining the selected best levels, experimental results showed a 95.54% increase in distillate output compared to a conventional solar still. Theoretical calculations agreed with the experimental results.
Enhancing the productivity of double slope single basin solar still with inte...Er.JOE.S 09943145604
The document describes a study that internally and externally modified a double-slope single-basin solar still to improve its productivity. The internal modification involved spreading pebbles at the bottom of the basin to enhance heat absorption and transfer. The external modification fitted an external mirror to focus additional solar rays into the still. Testing found that the internal modification marginally improved production, while combining internal and external modifications significantly increased productivity by 40.86% compared to an unmodified still. The aim was to evaluate how internal and external modifications impact the performance of a double-slope single-basin solar still.
This document discusses optimizing the performance of a single-slope solar still that is linked to a mini solar pond. Four parameters were identified that influence the solar still's performance: 1) sodium chloride concentration level, 2) the zone of the mini solar pond, 3) the angle of a reflecting mirror at the bottom of the still, and 4) the angle of a mirror fitted in the pond. The Taguchi method was used to determine the best performing levels for each parameter. The results indicated that sodium chloride concentration at 3.5 kg, linking the still to the lower converting zone of the pond, a reflecting angle of 0° at the bottom of the still, and a mirror angle of 135° in the pond were the
This document discusses enhancing the design of a double basin solar still to optimize its performance. The researchers fabricated a double basin still where the lower basin receives direct sunlight through glass covers on its sides. They integrated external energy sources like reflectors, a flat plate collector, and a mini solar pond with the still. Testing found the distillate output increased from 4333 mL/day for a basic double basin still to 5650 mL/day with reflectors and 6249 mL/day with reflectors, a flat plate collector and mini solar pond. The modifications improved the performance of the lower and upper basins, with the lower basin's relative contribution increasing from 29.75% to 40.6%.
The document describes an experimental study that investigated the performance of three different types of single basin double slope solar stills: a conventional still, a still with heat storage materials in the basin, and a still with an external reflector. The study found that the still with heat storage materials maintained higher water temperature and production rates during declining sunshine hours, while the still with a reflector had higher increases during increasing sunshine hours. Overall, the still with heat storage materials showed a 23.08% higher productivity than the conventional still, while the still with a reflector showed a 62.97% higher productivity. The purpose of the study was to evaluate how well heat storage materials and external reflectors improve solar still performance under changing sunlight conditions.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

The equipment varies in size and specifications based on their function.
Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptxRayLetai1
Increasing urbanization, rural–urban migration, rising standards of living, and rapid development associated with population growth have resulted in increased solid waste generation by industrial, domestic and other activities in Nairobi City. It has been noted in other contexts too that increasing population, changing consumption patterns, economic development, changing income, urbanization and industrialization all contribute to the increased generation of waste.
With the increasing urban population in Kenya, which is estimated to be growing at a rate higher than that of the country’s general population, waste generation and management is already a major challenge. The industrialization and urbanization process in the country, dominated by one major city – Nairobi, which has around four times the population of the next largest urban centre (Mombasa) – has witnessed an exponential increase in the generation of solid waste. It is projected that by 2030, about 50 per cent of the Kenyan population will be urban.
Aim:
A healthy, safe, secure and sustainable solid waste management system fit for a world – class city.
Improve and protect the public health of Nairobi residents and visitors.
Ecological health, diversity and productivity and maximize resource recovery through the participatory approach.
Goals:
Build awareness and capacity for source separation as essential components of sustainable waste management.
Build new environmentally sound infrastructure and systems for safe disposal of residual waste and replacing current dumpsites which should be commissioned.
Current solid waste management situation:
The status.
Solid waste generation rate is at 2240 tones / day
collection efficiently is at about 50%.
Actors i.e. city authorities, CBO’s , private firms and self-disposal
Current SWM Situation in Nairobi City:
Solid waste generation – collection – dumping
Good Practices:
• Separation – recycling – marketing.
• Open dumpsite dandora dump site through public education on source separation of waste, of which the situation can be reversed.
• Nairobi is one of the C40 cities in this respect , various actors in the solid waste management space have adopted a variety of technologies to reduce short lived climate pollutants including source separation , recycling , marketing of the recycled products.
• Through the network, it should expect to benefit from expertise of the different actors in the network in terms of applicable technologies and practices in reducing the short-lived climate pollutants.
Good practices:
Despite the dismal collection of solid waste in Nairobi city, there are practices and activities of informal actors (CBOs, CBO-SACCOs and yard shop operators) and other formal industrial actors on solid waste collection, recycling and waste reduction.
Practices and activities of these actor groups are viewed as innovations with the potential to change the way solid waste is handled.
CHALLENGES:
• Resource Allocation.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.
Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
