Replacing all filter bags at once (a full or complete replacement) provides significant economic and production benefits compared to partial or on-demand replacements. A full replacement allows for thorough inspection and maintenance of the entire dust collection system. While a partial replacement may seem cheaper initially, it carries higher risks of unplanned downtime from unexpected bag failures and higher total costs over time due to increased material, labor, and maintenance expenses. Performance measures like emission levels and pressure differentials remain more consistent with a full replacement strategy compared to partial replacements which can result in significantly higher emissions.

PARTCIAL OR COMPLETE
BAG HOUSE REPLACEMENT?
VOLUME #4. 31 May 2020
A Triumphant strategy: There are
significant economic and
production benefits for following a
clear replacement strategy where
all bags are replaced at once
Close monitoring of bag
deterioration acts like a
comprehensive health check. By
knowing the exact state of the filter
bags, monitoring plans and
maintenance programs can be
formulated to extend bag lifetime.
It is easier to manage bag lifetime
when there is a detailed overview
of the number of broken bags and
their corresponding locations.
PARTCIAL OR COMPLETE BAG HOUSE
REPLACEMENT?
The cost of incomplete replacements (Partial
Replacements) Partial bag replacement carries a higher risk
of plant downtime due to unexpected bag failure and the
remaining aged bags possess more resistance to the flow
than new ones.
Replacing bags on demand gives a deception that material
and work labor costs are practically economical. In any case,
actually you wind up paying higher “interest” in the form of
materials and other concealed costs, which can be up to 30%
higher contrasted and from the expense of a full replacement.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/vol4partcialorcomplete31stmay2020-200531085730/85/Vol-4-partcial-or-complete-31st-may-2020-1-320.jpg)

Reap the benefits: from the get go, the errand of a
complete replacement may appear to be too
troublesome or too costly yet a full substitution
technique offers reserve funds in material costs ) for
example (filter bags) and the shrouded costs related
with labor, maintenance, electricity usage ,
compressed air usage and generic production costs.
An additional advantage of complete replacement is
the capacity to play out a thorough check of all the
basic pieces of the dust collector, cleaning system,
sealing. Maintenance and repair can be done at the
same time eventually diminishing upkeep costs
sometime later down the line.
Performance measures: Emission levels, Differential
pressure (ΔP), Filter media permeability and W&T
percentage over the filter lifetime.
Guarantee consistence: From the resulting
calculations, the team could plot emission levels in
relation to the two bag replacement strategies. After
each full replacement and new commissioning, the
emissions level returns to the level at first
commissioning. When a partial replacement occurs,
emissions are emitted from all filter bags, with some
bags contributing more than others, depending on
their condition. This results in significantly higher
emissions

Vol#4 partial or complete 31st may 2020
This document discusses strategies for replacing bags in a bag house filter. It argues that a complete replacement of all bags at once is more economical than partial or on-demand replacements. A complete replacement avoids unexpected downtime from bag failures and reduces hidden costs from labor, maintenance and lost production. It also allows inspecting all components of the dust collection system. Performance measures show that complete replacements return emission levels to initial commissioning levels, while partial replacements result in higher emissions from older bags.

This document summarizes research on nitrogen management practices among farmers. It finds that while many practices have relative advantages in terms of efficiency, adoption is limited by complexity, compatibility with existing systems, and difficulty observing benefits due to various uncertainties. Soil testing has low adoption rates due to timing mismatches and challenges incorporating data. Sidedressing has high observability but equipment access limits some farmers. Stabilizers have clear advantages for fall application but benefits are difficult to observe. Variable rate application has high recognized benefits but also high costs and complexity, limiting adoption. Overall, compatibility with timing, nitrogen source and placement is important for farmers, while complexity and uncertainties around benefits serve as barriers.

2 comparative-analysis-of-moisture-removing
The document compares two processes for removing moisture from transformer insulation: vacuum drying and vapor phase drying. Vacuum drying uses heating and high vacuum to extract moisture, while vapor phase drying uses a heated solvent vapor instead of air for heating. Vapor phase drying was found to reduce drying cycle times, lower energy consumption, and achieve higher polarization index values, indicating better moisture removal and insulation performance than vacuum drying alone. However, vapor phase drying systems are more complex due to additional equipment needed to generate, circulate, and condense the heated solvent vapor. The research showed that vapor phase drying provides benefits over conventional vacuum drying for transformer insulation drying.

Comparative Analysis of HVAC System Based on Life Cycle Cost Analysis
A heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system is designed to satisfy the environmental requirements of comfort or a process, in a specific building or portion of a building and in a particular geographic locale. Efficient design of heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems is a primary concern in building projects. The objectives of the HVAC system design are to provide a thermal comfort, good indoor quality and energy conservation. For the typical commercial building projects, it is not difficult to acquire the reference settings for efficient operation. However, for some special projects, due to the specific design and control of the HVAC system, conventional settings may not be necessarily energy-efficient in daily operation. The HVAC system design and equipment selection for a commercial building (376 TR) is included as a case study in this paper. The outcomes of this paper are efficient design of HVAC system with minimum energy consumption and equipment selection based on operating and life cycle cost analysis.
SEPARATING DUST
A mill, as well as most of the production plants, is a set of machines connected to each other and crossed by a continuous (or not) product flow rate; one of its main characteristics is that product flow between the machines can also occur by means of pneumatic transport systems.
2 comparative-analysis-of-moisture-removing
The document compares different processes for removing moisture from transformers to increase their efficiency. Conventionally, thermal heating has been used, but it is not very energy efficient. Vacuum drying improves on this by applying a vacuum along with heating. A newer method is vapor phase drying, which heats the transformer using the vapor of a low viscosity solvent instead of air, potentially providing a more effective and efficient drying process. The paper analyzes the basics of insulation drying, drying time, conventional vacuum drying, and the vapor phase drying method in order to evaluate vapor phase drying against traditional techniques.
Replacement model

5A Pragmatic Approach toLifecycle AnalysisFormal l.docx

A Pragmatic Approach to
Lifecycle Analysis
Formal lifecycle analysis is not new; in fact, lifecycle analysis tools andtechniques have been around in various forms for decades. What is newis an urgent need to improve the tools and expand the use of lifecycle
analysis to a broader spectrum of products and services.
We’re going to use a pragmatic approach to lifecycle analysis that keeps
the focus on the main goals: understanding the overall impact and making
improvements. The truth is that you don’t always need to measure every-
thing; you don’t always need precise data; you don’t always need complete
information. You just need to know what to measure, when, and how—and
where to place your priorities.
To get started we’ll need a model of the product/service lifecycle that we
can use to organize our work. So, let’s take a closer look at the phases of a
typical lifecycle and the key considerations at each phase.
A Basic Lifecycle Model
Every product is different; every lifecycle has unique time frames and char-
acteristics. As a result, many different lifecycle models have been produced
over time. For this book, we use a basic three-stage model. We prefer this
model because it is straightforward and matches most people’s personal expe-
rience with the lifecycle stages of common products. The three stages of our
model are
• “Make,” which covers everything that happens before a product is
actually put into operation—including the materials and chemicals
45
that are used to create it, the processes involved in assembling and
manufacturing it, the packaging that encases it, and the supply chain
that distributes it
• “Use,” which includes the power the product consumes as it is
operated, the greenhouse gas (GHG) and other emissions it creates,
the water it uses, and the noise, light, and heat it generates during
operation
• “Renew,” which covers everything that happens after the product is
used, including the demanufacture or disassembly of the product,
reuse of key components, recycling, and take-back
At each stage of the lifecycle we focus on three primary aspects of the
environmental impact of a product or service:
• Energy and emissions, including the calculation of energy and
power, finding the cleanest source of energy for your product, using
energy efficiently, calculating GHG emissions and CO2 conversion,
and so on
• Chemicals, materials, and waste, including the legal and business
considerations of hazardous and toxic substances, packaging and doc-
umentation, waste disposal, recycling, take-back, and process-related
GHG emissions
• Water and other natural resources that are embodied in the product
or service, including social and business considerations of using
scarce or nonrenewable materials, calculating the water footprint, and
so forth
Additional Lifecycle Considerations
Our three-phase model is intentionally simplistic. So, before we discuss
each aspect of the lifecycle in more detail, we’d like to offer a few notes.

Three types of eco-efficient system innovations are described: adding value to product lifecycles, providing final results to customers, and providing enabling platforms for customers. Guidelines and criteria are needed to design systems that optimize stakeholder interactions and mix products and services for high eco-efficiency.
3.1 eco efficient system innovation vezzoli-10-11
The document discusses system design for eco-efficiency and different types of eco-efficient system innovations. It describes three types of eco-efficient system innovations: 1) adding value to the product life cycle by providing additional services, 2) providing final results to customers by offering customized service packages instead of products, and 3) providing enabling platforms for customers by giving access to products and opportunities. The goal of these innovations is to decouple economic interests from environmental impacts and reduce the life-cycle environmental load of production and consumption systems. Examples like pay-per-use washing machine services and on-site lubricant analysis are provided to illustrate the different innovation types.

A Pragmatic Approach to
Lifecycle Analysis
Formal lifecycle analysis is not new; in fact, lifecycle analysis tools andtechniques have been around in various forms for decades. What is newis an urgent need to improve the tools and expand the use of lifecycle
analysis to a broader spectrum of products and services.
We’re going to use a pragmatic approach to lifecycle analysis that keeps
the focus on the main goals: understanding the overall impact and making
improvements. The truth is that you don’t always need to measure every-
thing; you don’t always need precise data; you don’t always need complete
information. You just need to know what to measure, when, and how—and
where to place your priorities.
To get started we’ll need a model of the product/service lifecycle that we
can use to organize our work. So, let’s take a closer look at the phases of a
typical lifecycle and the key considerations at each phase.
A Basic Lifecycle Model
Every product is different; every lifecycle has unique time frames and char-
acteristics. As a result, many different lifecycle models have been produced
over time. For this book, we use a basic three-stage model. We prefer this
model because it is straightforward and matches most people’s personal expe-
rience with the lifecycle stages of common products. The three stages of our
model are
• “Make,” which covers everything that happens before a product is
actually put into operation—including the materials and chemicals
45
that are used to create it, the processes involved in assembling and
manufacturing it, the packaging that encases it, and the supply chain
that distributes it
• “Use,” which includes the power the product consumes as it is
operated, the greenhouse gas (GHG) and other emissions it creates,
the water it uses, and the noise, light, and heat it generates during
operation
• “Renew,” which covers everything that happens after the product is
used, including the demanufacture or disassembly of the product,
reuse of key components, recycling, and take-back
At each stage of the lifecycle we focus on three primary aspects of the
environmental impact of a product or service:
• Energy and emissions, including the calculation of energy and
power, finding the cleanest source of energy for your product, using
energy efficiently, calculating GHG emissions and CO2 conversion,
and so on
• Chemicals, materials, and waste, including the legal and business
considerations of hazardous and toxic substances, packaging and doc-
umentation, waste disposal, recycling, take-back, and process-related
GHG emissions
• Water and other natural resources that are embodied in the product
or service, including social and business considerations of using
scarce or nonrenewable materials, calculating the water footprint, and
so forth
Additional Lifecycle Considerations
Our three-phase model is intentionally simplistic. So, before we discuss
each aspect of the lifecycle in more detail, we’d like to offer a few notes.

Recycling and Disposal on SWM Raymond Einyu pptx
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

- 1. [DOCUMENT TITLE] PETER PARTCIAL OR COMPLETE BAG HOUSE REPLACEMENT? VOLUME #4. 31 May 2020 A Triumphant strategy: There are significant economic and production benefits for following a clear replacement strategy where all bags are replaced at once Close monitoring of bag deterioration acts like a comprehensive health check. By knowing the exact state of the filter bags, monitoring plans and maintenance programs can be formulated to extend bag lifetime. It is easier to manage bag lifetime when there is a detailed overview of the number of broken bags and their corresponding locations. PARTCIAL OR COMPLETE BAG HOUSE REPLACEMENT? The cost of incomplete replacements (Partial Replacements) Partial bag replacement carries a higher risk of plant downtime due to unexpected bag failure and the remaining aged bags possess more resistance to the flow than new ones. Replacing bags on demand gives a deception that material and work labor costs are practically economical. In any case, actually you wind up paying higher “interest” in the form of materials and other concealed costs, which can be up to 30% higher contrasted and from the expense of a full replacement.
- 2. [DOCUMENT TITLE] PETER Reap the benefits: from the get go, the errand of a complete replacement may appear to be too troublesome or too costly yet a full substitution technique offers reserve funds in material costs ) for example (filter bags) and the shrouded costs related with labor, maintenance, electricity usage , compressed air usage and generic production costs. An additional advantage of complete replacement is the capacity to play out a thorough check of all the basic pieces of the dust collector, cleaning system, sealing. Maintenance and repair can be done at the same time eventually diminishing upkeep costs sometime later down the line. Performance measures: Emission levels, Differential pressure (ΔP), Filter media permeability and W&T percentage over the filter lifetime. Guarantee consistence: From the resulting calculations, the team could plot emission levels in relation to the two bag replacement strategies. After each full replacement and new commissioning, the emissions level returns to the level at first commissioning. When a partial replacement occurs, emissions are emitted from all filter bags, with some bags contributing more than others, depending on their condition. This results in significantly higher emissions FOR FURTHER DETAILS, DO NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT US: sales@alimex.org www.alimexgroup.com +20224177821 +24177894 +20 127 5177188 1 EL Marwa Buildings Ahmed Taysir St. Heliopolis, Cairo Egypt.
