This article refers to the traditional solution of the non-dismantable sampler and to the dismantable sampler applied as a new solution. This research describes the results of a research project on how the structure of the sampler for assembling and storage of LPG samples influences the representativeness of samples under study. The research was carried out in two directions : analysis of gas samples for the current PN-EN 589, PN-EN ISO 4257 standards and analysis of microscopic and macroscopic inner surface of the sampler. It was observed the formation of contamination layers in samplers. The chemical composition of the layers was examined and identified possible impact on changing the quality parameters of LPG. Based on the conducted research and analysis, the impact of the changed structure on the quality parameters of the LPG fuel and its representativeness in reference to the part of the cargo from which it had been taken can be assessed. Allow to conclude the thesis that the structure of the dismantable sampler followed internal cylinder surface treatment affects the representativeness of the samples collected and analyzed type of LPG gas. The construction of the sampler and possible of cleaning sampler is particularly important for qualitative parameters such gases as corrosive to copper and sulfur content of the total. Impurities that may be present in LPG, derived from refinery and petrochemical processes (ammonia, water, sulfur, methanol, higher hydrocarbons, dirt) and the distribution system are causing the occurrence of secondary reactions. Results occurring secondary reactions adversely affect the quality of the LPG. The researched solution on the dismantled sampler was patented, implemented, and applied in practice. The possibility to dismantle and thoroughly clean the sampler prior to sample collection enhances the certainty of obtaining highly representative samples and credible test results.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the addition of oligofructose or polydextrose (2 g/100 g) and Lacticaseibacillus casei (2 g/L) on the quality parameters of grape juices during storage (7 oC/28 days in polyethylene terephthalate flasks). The addition of probiotics or prebiotics did not alter the physicochemical characteristics, texture properties, and storage stability of the grape juices; however, they changed the color and/or turbidity. Oligofructose and polydextrose did not show a protective effect on the probiotic, but the products showed probiotic viability higher than 106 CFU/mL. The grape juice with oligofructose had similar acceptance to the control juice. The addition of polydextrose or reduced probiotic acceptance in most of the evaluated attributes. All grape juices presented scores higher than 6 on a 9-point hedonic scale and an acceptability index higher than 70%. It is possible to produce potentially synbiotic grape juices with suitable quality parameters, probiotic survival, and sensory acceptance.

The long lifecycle, also known as durability and the permanence / invariability in the quality of papers and cardbords for graphic art, are today the basic requirements, imposed by printed art in terms of high quality parameters. These two factors are a manifestation, depending on different internal chemical-composition properties of the paper consistency and external influences of the ambience. Longevity and permanence are perceived as a function of aging and are actually observed at a later point in time. It is important to clarify that they are terms with different contents where „durability” is perceived as the ability of the paper or cardboard to resist the impact of wear during use, and the „permanence” is the possibility of product to remain chemically and physically stable for a long period of time.

The paper presents the results of research on the environmental impact of sewage ponds serving the city of Kostanay (Kazakhstan). The scope of the research included the determination of basic quality parameters of raw and treated wastewater, an analysis of the chemical composition of groundwater in the vicinity of sewage ponds, and the analysis of the water quality of the Tobol River. The obtained results indicate that sewage from storage ponds, infiltrating into the ground, caused groundwater pollution in the area of about 100 km2 around the reservoirs. Due to the fact that the groundwater aquifer in the vicinity of sewage ponds feeds the Tobol River, it also affects water quality in the river, which does not meet the requirements for most of the analyzed parameters.

Water quality of the Indus River around the upper basin and the main river was evaluated with the help of statistical analysis. In order to analyze the similarities and dissimilarities for identifying the spatial variations in water quality of the Indus River and sources of contamination, multivariate statistical analysis, i.e., principle component analysis (PCA), cluster analysis, and descriptive analysis, was done. Data of 8 physicochemical quality parameters from 64 sampling stations belonging to 6 regions (labeled as M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, and M6) were used for analysis. The parameters used for assessing the water quality were pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), oxygen reducing potential (ORP), electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), salinity (%), and concentration of arsenic (As) and lead (Pb), respectively. PCA assisted in extracting and recognizing the responsible variation factors of water quality over the region, and the results showed three underlying factors including anthropogenic source pollution along with runoff due to rain and soil erosion were responsible for explaining the 93.87% of total variance. The parameters which were significantly influenced by anthropogenic impact are DO, EC, TDS (negative), and concentration of Pb (positive), while the concentration of As, % salinity, and ORP are affected by erosion and runoff due to rain. The worst pollution situation for regions M1 and M6 was due to the concentration of As which was approximately 400 μg/l (i.e., 40 times higher than minimum WHO recommendation). Furthermore, the results also indicated that, in the Indus River, three monitoring stations and five quality parameters are sufficient to have a reasonable confidence about the quality of water in this most important reserve of Pakistan.

Recent technological advancements have given rise to the concept of hyper-connected smart cities being adopted around the world. These cities aspire to achieve better outcomes for citizens by improving the quality of service delivery, information sharing, and creating a sustainable environment. A smart city comprises of a network of interconnected devices also known as IoT (Internet of Things), which captures data and transmits it to a platform for analysis. This data covers a variety of information produced in large volumes also known as Big Data. From data capture to processing and storage, there are several stages where a breach in security and privacy could result in catastrophic impacts. Presently there is a gap in the centralization of knowledge to implement smart city services with a secure architecture. To bridge this gap, we present a framework that highlights challenges within the smart city applications and synthesizes the techniques feasible to solve them. Additionally, we analyze the impact of a potential breach on smart city applications and state-of-the-art architectures available. Furthermore, we identify the stakeholders who may have an interest in learning about the relationships between the significant aspects of a smart city. We demonstrate these relationships through force-directed network diagrams. They will help raise the awareness amongst the stakeholders for planning the development of a smart city. To complement our framework, we designed web-based interactive resources that are available from http://ausdigitech.com/smartcity/.
