Environmental impacts originating from a pilot project in renewable energy at the federal university of Campina Grande

Due to the growth of overall energy consumption, alternatives for sustainable development are being heavily invested, as is the case of solar photovoltaic power plants. However, it is important to conduct the study of environmental impacts that are generated with such technology, seeking to prevent environmental damage expressive and ensuring more viable alternatives to the projects. With this, aims to raise the main environmental impacts on the physical, biotic and socio-from a deployment of a mini solar photovoltaic power plant in the Federal University of Campina Grande.

Efficiency and selectivity of gillnet mesh sizes for assessing fish composition of egbe water reservoir, Ekiti State, Nigeria

Comparism of five (5) different gillnet mesh sizes ranging from 50.8mm, 63.5mm, 78.2mm, 88.9mm, and 101.6mm was done at four (4) different sampling stations along the banks of the reservoir to evaluate the efficiency and selectivity of gillnet mesh sizes for assessing fish composition in Egbe water reservoir, between April, 2014 and January, 2016. The nets were set at 6.00pm and hauling done in the morning at 8.00am, fishermen were well monitored to avoid sampling bias and ensure a constant fishing effort.

Improving heat flow rate and condensate efficiency after dryingby a mass and energy re-usage technique

The drying process is of great importance to the food industry. One of the best techniquesfor food drying is re-using mass and energy of air outlets from dryers. Mass and energy re-usage of waste can reduce carbon emissions and the use of fossil fuelsin industrial food processes. For this purpose, a mass and energy re-usage technique has been developed in a system of heat flow rate and condensate recovery from air outlets after drying.

Potential neuroprotective effectsof epigallocatechin gallateon behavioral impairmentsin normal and alzheimer's rats chemically induced by aluminum oxide nanoparticles

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), it is most abundant polyphenolin green tea. In addition, it is the most potent neuroprotective compound in green tea. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible neuroprotective effects of EGCG on behavioral impairments in normal and Alzheimer'srats induced by Aluminum oxide nanoparticles. Forty-eight groups of rats were divided into 8 groups, 6 rats each; Group (1) normal control, received 1ml saline 0.9% orally daily throughout the experiment.

The big data era: Challenges and opportunities in the perception of the software industry experts

Software industry organizations are known by being intensive in producing different types of knowledge during all the software development process. That's because this industry builds different types of software-based solutions, as well as storing a large amount of data for their customers and their projects. This amount of data is stored in databases so that it can be used in different tasks in the organization in the future. Thus, many of these databases are characterized as Big Data.

Assessing the reward package on employee’s performance in nigerian banks

This research project was aimed to investigate the impact of reward package on employee’s performance in Nigerian Banks. In the globalised environment, it is of important to ensure a rewarded/motivated workforce because employees are the only asset that appreciates in value over time, thereby directly contributing to organisational performances. Employee reward package has been a major problem in the banking industries, due mainly to poor salaries and pecuniary benefits such as transport allowances and bonuses.

Effects of government regulation in a port in Southern Brazil

This article aims to analyze the effects of government regulation from the experience of the Port of Imbituba, located in the southern region of Brazil. Methodologically, it is a descriptive and exploratory research, adopting the strategy of a case study, with literature review, documentary survey and field research. For the data collection in the field, we conducted in-depth interviews out with the agents that have a relationship with the Port of Imbituba. The data were analyzed and discussed, using an essentially qualitative approach. We find that with Law no.

The health in school program (pse) in the current context of Brazilian educational policies

This study approaches the "Health in School Program in the current context of Brazilian Educational Policies". Based on the history of the development of the public health and education policy scenario, Brazil has a slow development, so the PSE has the important mission of integrating Educational Policies and the National Primary Care Policy to jointly seek, through health promotion and education, the quality of life of the population served.
