Introduction: Procedures using disposable materials in thehealth area began to be performed, for example in cardiaccatheterization, which has a high prevalence of morbidity andmortality. Objective: To justify and reaffirm the reuse of single-use catheters in surgeries, as it is justified by the economicbenefit gained from replacing the purchase of new materialsby reusing them. Materials and methods: A bibliographic anddocumentary narrative review was carried out using LILACSand NCBI as database, with previously defined filters andselection criteria. Resultados: Decontamination, disinfection,conditioning, sterilization, and quality control tests are criticalstages and, therefore, require training. Each of these stages alsohas characteristic risks, which must be minimized. In order toensure the quality of the catheter reuse process, after the cleaningand sterilization process, techniques beyond microscopicand visual evaluation of the device are required. A diversityof techniques is addressed so that the quality of the process isassured. Although legislation and supervision are divergentaround the world, many countries choose to adopt reprocessingwith economic justification in most cases. The reuse ofhospital devices involves several physico-chemical processes,which must be performed with quality and safety. Conclusion:The need for greater rigor in the norms and guidelines thataddress this practice is clear and urgent, as well as the greaterintensity and rigidity of the responsible inspection agencies.The use of luminol as an indicator of organic contaminantsmay generate a false positive result. Therefore, 3M™ Clean-Trace ™ is the best instrument found in the world market toensure that the material that has been reused is free of organicwaste, and thus fit for use in hospitals.

Nitrate groundwater contamination is of major interest all over the world. This problem arises in agricultural regions across Morocco. An excess amount of nitrate causes a serious problem in urban water networks and human health. Because of these health risks, considerable attention has been paid to find effective treatment processes to reduce nitrate concentrations to safe levels. The World Health Organization has set an acceptable level for nitrate in drinking water at 50 mg/L. The aim of this study is to reduce the nitrate concentration from groundwater using two membrane processes: Electrodialysis (ED) and Nanofiltration (NF). Efficiencies of these two technologies are compared in respect to nitrate ions removal, cost process and final quality of water. The results of technologies show that, for electrodialysis standards level can be achieved for a demineralization rate of 15% and the physico-chemical quality of the produced water is satisfactory. For nanofiltration we obtain a nitrate removal of 90% but the produced water is very de-mineralized and must be remineralized.

The article is aimed at studying the analysis of modern problems and prospects for the development of enterprises in Ukraine. Analyzing the latest researches and publications of scientists, the general theoretical bases of problems and prospects for the development of domestic enterprises were considered. The article covers and theoretically substantiates modern problems of entrepreneurship development, which periodically require their study and research, taking into account constant changes in the economy. In general, enterprises play a significant role, because their effective activities is a source of economic growth, which ensures employment in the country and directly affects the improvement of the quality of life of the population, solving social problems and overcoming poverty. However, Ukrainian economy continues to situate «on the swings» in a constantly changing tendency. It is especially influenced by such factors as raising the US dollar exchange rate, reducing attractiveness in the world market, and recently the introduction of quarantine restrictions in the face of the coronavirus pandemic, which has had a significant impact on its development both in Ukraine and around the world. At the same time, precisely the small enterprises play a leading role in creating an effective economy of Ukraine, despite the fact that their development is uneven and they have not taken a proper place in the structure of the national economy. Thus, for the government of the country should become priority directions for stimulating the innovative activity of the entrepreneurial sector, introducing European approaches to the development of small and medium-sized businesses, as well as the formation of a favorable regulatory environment, innovation and investment climate. Moreover, the implementation of this policy should be carried out purposefully, consistently and systematically, as part of the complex of the national innovation system.

На качество фруктовых дистиллятов оказывают существенное влияние различные физико-химические процессы, проходящие в дистилляционной установке под действием высокой температуры. В зависимости от особенностей биохимического состава для каждого вида сырья необходимо подбирать конкретные режимы дистилляции, обеспечивающие получение дистиллята с высокими органолептическими и физико-химическими характеристиками. В связи с этим цель работы состояла в исследовании влияния режимных параметров фракционированной дистилляции сброженной кизиловой мезги на распределение летучих компонентов по фракциям. В качестве объектов исследования в работе использовали фракции, полученные в процессе дистилляции сброженной кизиловой мезги на установке прямой сгонки «Kothe Distillationstechnik» (Германия). Экспериментально установлено, что повышение скорости при дистилляции сброженной кизиловой мезги приводит к увеличению объема отбираемой головной фракции, при одновременном снижении ее крепости. Показано, что изменение скорости дистилляции приводит к изменению характера перехода основных летучих компонентов в дистиллят и распределения их по фракциям. Изучена динамика перехода летучих компонентов в дистиллят при различных режимах работы дистилляционной установки - без задержки флегмы (обычный режим) и с задержкой флегмы на нижней тарелке укрепляющей колонны. Проведенные исследования показали, что при условии медленной дистилляции со скоростью не более 5,5 см3/мин в средние фракции переходит 82-85% компонентов энантового эфира, а содержание ацетальдегида снижается на 10-12% по сравнению с быстрой дистилляцией. Показано, что применение задержки флегмы на нижней тарелке укрепляющей колонны дистилляционной установки также способствует снижению перехода в кизиловый дистиллят ацетальдегида и этилацетата, и к сокращению потерь компонентов энантового эфира с головной и хвостовой фракциями. The quality of fruit distillates is significantly affected by various physical and chemical processes that take place in the distillation unit under the influence of high temperature. Depending on the characteristics of the biochemical composition for each type of raw material, it is necessary to select specific distillation modes that ensure the production of distillate with high organoleptic and physico-chemical characteristics. In this regard, the aim of the work was to study the influence of the regime parameters of fractionated distillation of fermented Cornel pulp on the distribution of volatile components by fractions. The fractions obtained during the distillation of fermented Cornel pulp at the direct distillation unit «Kothe Distillationstechnik» (Germany), were used as the objects of research. It is experimentally established that an increase in the speed during distillation of fermented Cornel pulp leads to an increase in the volume of the selected head fraction, while reducing its strength. It is shown that a change in the distillation rate leads to a change in the nature of the transition of the main volatile components to the distillate and their distribution by fractions. The dynamics of the transition of volatile components to distillate under different operating modes of the distillation unit - without phlegm delay (normal mode) and with phlegm delay on the lower plate of the reinforcing column is studied. Studies have shown that under the condition of slow distillation at a speed of no more than 5.5 cm3/min, 82-85% of the enantium ether components pass into the medium fractions, and the content of acetaldehyde decreases by 10-12% compared to fast distillation. It is shown that the use of phlegm delay on the lower plate of the strengthening column of the distillation unit also helps to reduce the transition to the Cornel distillate of acetaldehyde and ethyl acetate, and to reduce the loss of the components of the enantium ether with the head and tail fractions.

The territory of the Hungarian state is largely suitable for the purpose of growing fruits of the temperate zone species. During the next decennia, the annual volume of Hungarian fruit production is expected to be around 1.1-1.3 million tons, from which some 15% is considered to be a produce of Hungary or "Hungaricum" (90 thousand tons of sour cherry, 50 thousand tons of apricot, 20 thousand tons of raspberry, 10 thousand tons of walnut). These fruits symbolise the country's special quality, which are worth to catch the interest the foreign consumers. The category of Hungaricum involves almost exclusively varieties of Hungarian origin as sour cherries, apricots, raspberries and walnuts, and they are representing outstanding qualities on the international markets. As for the fruit products the fruit brandies are eligible to be "Hungaricum" and are called exclusively "Pálinka". The Pálinka, provided to be distinguished with a geographic mark and will be competitive on the world market. Smaller quantities, though significant produce is represented by the deep frozen raspberry.

Отмечено значение пшеницы как основного сырья для хлебопекарной промышленности в России. Проанализированы посевные площади и валовый сбор пшеницы в РФ в 2008-2018 годах. Исследована динамика урожайности пшеницы по регионам и в целом по стране. Рассмотрена структура производства зерна в России по видам культур. Представлен валовый сбор и урожайность пшеницы в основных регионах-производителях в 2018 году. Проанализирован валовый сбор пшеницы по категориям хозяйств. Рассмотрены проблемы при уборке пшеницы, а также при её хранении. Отмечены причины низкого качества производимой пшеницы в стране. Предложено совершенствовать систему ценообразования на пшеницу, так как формирование цены на зерно происходит без учета оптимального отношения к качеству зерна, что не отражает объективности и соразмерности затрат. Отмечено, что оптимизация природных, экономических, организационных и технико-технологических факторов, влияющих на производство высококачественной пшеницы, позволит повысить её конкурентоспособность на мировом рынке и увеличить экспортный потенциал. Дан прогноз о том, что за счет повышения конкурентоспособности российского зерна на мировом рынке, путем снижения совокупных издержек, включая логистические, и улучшения качества зерна к 2030 году прогнозируется повышение доли Российской Федерации на рынках десяти ведущих стран-потребителей российской пшеницы до 43, что составит 32,5 млн. тонн.Wheat is a main important raw material for the baking industry in Russia. An analysis of crop areas and gross wheat output in the Russian Federation in 2008-2018 has been made. The dynamics of wheat productivity in the regions and in the whole country has been studied. The pattern of grain production by types of crops in Russia has been considered. The gross yield and wheat productivity in the main producing regions in 2018 are presented.The gross output of wheat according to farm types has been analyzed. The problems of wheat harvesting, as well as its storage are considered. The reasons for the low quality of wheat produced in the country are noted. It is proposed to improve the wheat pricing system, as the formation of grain prices does not take into account the optimal ratio to the quality of grain, which does not reflect the objectivity and proportionality of costs. It is noted that the optimization of natural, economic, organizational and technological factors, that affect the production of high-quality wheat, will increase its competitiveness in the world market and increase export potential. A forecast has been given, that through increase of the competitiveness of Russian grain in the world market, through reducing total costs, logistics included, and improving grain quality, by 2030 an increase is expected in the share of the Russian Federation in the markets of the ten leading countries consuming Russian wheat up to 43, which will amount to 32.5 million tons.
