Permanent Magnets in Sustainable Energy: Comparative Life Cycle Analysis by Svetlana Orlova, Anton Rassõlkin

“…Various studies have explored different aspects of the LCA of NdFeB magnets, focusing on production methods, recycling processes, and the environmental impacts of different rare-earth sources. A comparative LCA highlights the significant environmental footprint of rare-earth magnets, underscoring the role of functional unit selection: when assessed per unit of energy density, the environmental impact of NdFeB magnets aligns more closely with alternatives. …”

COMPLEX FOR MONITORING OF SEWAGE OPTICAL DENSITY CHANGES by V. A. Alekseev, V. P. Usoltcev, S. I. Yuran, D. N. Shulmin

“…For carrying out an experiment water pollution is selected by vegetable oil. The analysis of absorption spectra of water and vegetable oil showed that as a source of radiation it is expedient to use lasers with lengths of waves in the range of 0,4–0,5 μm which have the minimum absorption of radiation in the water environment and the considerable absorption in the environment of impurity, for example, the violet STLL-MM-405-200-52-A laser with wavelength of 0,405 μm and 200 mW. …”
