The growing global population has a persistently negative impact on the economy and ecology due to food waste. This topic has recently received much attention from around the world. For both homes and the food processing industry, recycling food waste is crucial to waste management. This study aims to show how dehydrated food scraps and leftovers can be used as raw materials for trench compost to enhance soil quality and reduce leachate and greenhouse gas emissions. The results showed that the pre-treatment and air temperature significantly affected the finished trench compost products' EC, pH, and nutrient content. Pretreated dried leftover at 80°C after trench compost was found to have the highest value of CNH, S (36.53%), and micronutrients (0.103404%) when compared to micronutrients in the final product of pre-treatment dried leftover at 80<i>℃</i> after trench compost that was (0.057273%). Dehydrated leftovers from trench compost were thought to have nutrient content that would improve soil quality, slow decomposition, and reduce odor, thus enabling more frequent trash collection.

The inseparable parts of sustenance costs are expenses for nutrition of members of Integrated Rescue System (IRS) and evacuated civil population. The system covers distribution of foodstuff above all into evacuation centres, preparation of food (cooking), disposing wastes, remnants and leftovers. The collected data were used for calculating and analysis of overall costs spent for all discussed groups. Upon this analyses the authoresses draw final conclusions.

Este artigo analisa o estilo de escritura do roteiro do piloto da série The Leftovers, a partir dos modos de prosa narrativa estipulados por Claudia Sternberg. A escrita de Damon Lindelof e Tom Perrotta, criadores da série, emprega recursos literários e subverte grande parte das convenções do padrão Master Scenes de escrita de roteiros. Mais especificamente, a análise observa como os autores se utilizam do "modo comentário" para provocar determinados efeitos sobre o leitor.

Leftover: the residual, the adjunct, the tenacious, dismissed from the 'Whole', a demarcation, a rejection, an excess, a stain, a trace, to be re-decorated, re-moved, re-cycled, re-turned to a primordial condition. Only it won't. Unwanted as they might be, leftovers linger, escape, insist, and demand our attention; they are a constant distraction, intensity, and transgression. As objects, environments, actions, and intentions, leftovers incite affects. Although not essentially antagonistic or the product of agential action and intention, leftovers are helpful in mapping the political, not only by drawing the coordinates of the respectable, responsible, reasonable, essential, and the aesthetic, but concurrently as the rejected yet lingering remnant of knowledge production. Using 'Leftover' as an invitation for theorization across disciplines and research paradigms, this event reflected on what we might mean when we use affective vocabularies in order to position ourselves in theoretical and methodological terms, and what is being left-over in theory, action, and passion.

Staphylococcus aureus is an important aetiological agent of food intoxications in the European Union as it can cause gastro-enteritis through the production of various staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs) in foods. Reported enterotoxin dose levels causing food-borne illness are scarce and varying. Three food poisoning outbreaks due to enterotoxin-producing S. aureus strains which occurred in 2013 in Belgium are described. The outbreaks occurred in an elderly home, at a barbecue event and in a kindergarten and involved 28, 18, and six cases, respectively. Various food leftovers contained coagulase positive staphylococci (CPS). Low levels of staphylococcal enterotoxins ranging between 0.015 ng/g and 0.019 ng/g for enterotoxin A (SEA), and corresponding to 0.132 ng/g for SEC were quantified in the food leftovers for two of the reported outbreaks. Molecular typing of human and food isolates using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and enterotoxin gene typing, confirmed the link between patients and the suspected foodstuffs. This also demonstrated the high diversity of CPS isolates both in the cases and in healthy persons carrying enterotoxin genes encoding emetic SEs for which no detection methods currently exist. For one outbreak, the investigation pointed out to the food handler who transmitted the outbreak strain to the food. Tools to improve staphylococcal food poisoning (SFP) investigations are presented.

AbstractThe Peace Negotiations in the Dutch city of Utrecht (1712–13) and its preliminaries settled the Spanish War of Succession and were used to deal with leftovers of the Westphalia Treaties. More importantly, the peace talks in Utrecht gave the major West European powers the opportunity to create an international framework enhancing stability and cooperation in Europe. The Utrecht talks are analyzed to assess the evolution of the negotiation process. The discussion enhances our understanding of international interstate negotiation processes of the past and, thereby, of the present.

"What does it mean to claim that something is broken? What is the connection between tinkering and innovation? And how much tolerance for failure do our societies have? Exploring some of the ways in which repair practices and perceptions of brokenness vary culturally, Repair, Brokenness, Breakthrough argues that repair is an attempt to extend the life of things as well as an answer to failures, gaps, wrongdoings and leftovers. The set of contributions illustrates the strong affective power hidden in situations of disrepair and repair; broken objects often bring strong emotions into play, but also energising reactions of creative action"--

Refractory organic substances (ROS) are an essential part of the biogeochemical carbon cycle. Wherever there is life on earth, there will also be ROS in the form of poorly biodegradable leftovers of organisms and as a source for new life. Furthermore, it is now beyond doubt that ROS are closely related to the carbon intensity identified as one of the driving forces in the dynamics of green house gas emission, such that ROS play a key role in sustainable development. 'Refractory Organic Substances in the Environment' provides the results of six years of top-priority research, funded by the Deut

During the Middle Ages, the links of the Precieux Sang are the subject of numerous translations between the East and West and then throughout Europe. In many cases, the big ones play a major role. That finding must lead to the question of their interest in these leftovers from Christ. As we will see, these have a heavy political significance. ; International audience In the Middle Ages, Holy blood relics were frequently translated, first between the Orient and the West, later throughout Europe. Quite often the aristocracy played a major role in the process of translation. This observation prompts the question as to the nature of the aristocracy's interest in Christ's remains. As shall be discussed, at the time such remains were imbued with considerable political meaning. ; During the Middle Ages, the links of the Precieux Sang are the subject of numerous translations between the East and West and then throughout Europe. In many cases, the big ones play a major role. That finding must lead to the question of their interest in these leftovers from Christ. As we will see, these have a heavy political significance. ; Au cours du Moyen Âge, les reliques du Précieux Sang font l'objet de nombreuses translations entre Orient et Occident puis dans l'ensemble de l'Europe. Bien souvent, les grands y jouent un rôle majeur. Ce constat doit conduire à s'interroger sur l'intérêt qu'ils portent à ces restes du Christ. Comme on le verra, ceux-ci revêtent une lourde signification politique.
