The issue of energy efficiency and climate chance resonates in energy sector as one of the main producer of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. While the Union as a whole is doing well in reducing emissions as well as in increasing the share of renewables, unfortunately, there are countries still far from their goal. The aim of this paper is to quantitatively assess the relationship between economic growth of energy sector and production of GHG emissions by energy sector in the V4 countries using decoupling method. The paper focuses on the case of V4 countries in the period of 1995 – 2016. Throughout the more than 20 years examined, the countries spread out into many different forms of decoupling. The results of analysis suggest that in most observed partial variables occurs the strong decoupling of economic growth of energy sector (measured in GVA) and GHG emissions produced by energy sector, what can be considered as positive trend. Findings of the paper are relevant for government, state and public institutions as well as stakeholders in general who play important role in preparation of programs, projects and initiatives to make energy appliances, buildings, transport and energy generation more efficient, and introduces stringent new energy efficiency standards and financing mechanisms to support more energy efficient products.","PeriodicalId":366357,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Council on Technologies of Environmental Protection (ICTEP)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128722618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Majority of these sheets are processed by drawing. Decreasing thickness of the thin steel sheets and the increasing required speed of drawing in the production of packages often lead to the loss of stability of plastic deformation, which demonstrates itself through the localization of deformation or the material failure of processed packaging sheet. Localization of deformation significantly influences the change in thickness, the porosity of tin protection layer and its integrity. Two grades of tin coated steel sheets were used for the experimental research. Their properties were examined using uniaxial and biaxial tensile test. After the plastic deformation, the sheets were exposed to the corrosive environment and the influence of the size of deformation and the localization of deformation on the corrosion resistance of thin packaging sheets was evaluated. Some particular cases of corrosion of so called twist-off caps were analyzed as well.","PeriodicalId":366357,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Council on Technologies of Environmental Protection (ICTEP)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129831121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For adsorption of a volatile organic compound (in this study ethanol was chosen), 7 kinds of granulated activated carbon (GAC) were used. A matrix containing the volatile organic compound of 2 and 5 % aqueous stock solution of ethanol was used. In the device a gaseous phase of the matrix was adsorbed onto GAC (80g). The gaseous phase was acquired by stripping the stock solution with an air blower. The adsorbed gaseous phase was desorbed from GAC by high temperature. The desorbed molecules were condensed in the next part of the device and accumulated in a two-neck round bottom flask at the end of the device. After desorption, ethanol concentration was determined in the product. The air blower provided a closed cycle in which the adsorption and desorption took place. With the application of 7 kinds of GAC in this adsorption-desorption device an average ethanol content of 16.8 % from the 2 % stock solution was yielded in the product. In the case of the 5 % stock solution the product acquired an average ethanol concentration of 36 %.

Noise visualization tools are often used for comprehensive knowledge of noise sources, which serves as a basis for subsequent implementation of noise reduction measures. They are also often used to optimize the acoustic properties of household appliances. A new area in the application of noise visualization tools is the area of building acoustics. At present, demands on acoustic parameters of building structures are increasing. Many people complain about the inadequate acoustic quality of the partition walls even in new buildings. Using visualization tools, it is possible to detect deficiencies in building structures such as perimeter walls, partition walls, roof structures and windows. This method is non-destructive and produces fast results. The result of such visualization is the precise identification of the critical points and their location. The most commonly used visualization tool is acoustic camera.","PeriodicalId":366357,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Council on Technologies of Environmental Protection (ICTEP)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126553772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Enrofloxacin belongs to the class of fluoroquinolone antibiotics that have been intensively used for the treatment of bacterial infections in veterinary medicine. When antibiotic residues enter the soil, the main processes determining their persistence are sorption to organic particles and degradation. The article presents the results of studies on the sorption of enrofloxacin by different crops, provided that it’s various concentrations in the soil (1000mg·kg−1, 100mg·kg−1, 10mg·kg−1). Experimental studies have shown that the activity of absorbed antibiotics depends on its concentration in the soil and species of an agricultural plant. It was found that the most active antibiotic absorbs Lactuca sativa var. Crispa and Calendula officinalis. The lowest content of enrofloxacin among the five plants was in Mentha piperita. Adding to the soil of enrofloxacin at a concentration of 1000 mg·kg−1 leads to the formation of a high level of soil toxicity. In model ecosystems with Thymus serpillum and Mentha piperita, soil toxicity was more than 70%. The toxicity of enrofloxacin in the soil within In vivo experiments was on average 10% lower than in laboratory tests. The highest phytotoxic effect was observed in the soil of model ecosystems, where the concentration of enrofloxacin was 1000 mg·kg−1. It should be noted that in the soil where Lactuca sativa was grown, the phytotoxic effect was 56.17 % (In vitro) and 49.22% (In vivo). This is due to the active absorption of antibiotic by plants, which minimized the toxicity of the soil. The different terrestrial toxicological effects of enrofloxacin were studied using a series of bioassays and including sorption of fluoroquinolone antibiotic by five crop plants. Enrofloxacin is highly resistant, its biodegradation process is longer than other antibiotics, it is actively absorbed by the plants, and therefore it is necessary to control it content in phytoproduction.","PeriodicalId":366357,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Council on Technologies of Environmental Protection (ICTEP)","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129226696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
