Abstract:
SUMMARYIn France, many dairy farms plan the allocation of animal wastes to the fields of the farm at the beginning of every year. This decision is complex, because many factors must be taken into account at the field and farm scales, including increasingly constraining environmental regulations. To evaluate the environmental impact of waste allocation strategies, these strategies have to be translated into consistent decisions. The objective of the current study was to reproduce the decisions made by farmers, in a wide range of contexts. For this purpose, a linear programming model that could help in generating yearly waste allocations was developed. The model, called Fumigene, takes into account the farmer's preferences and environmental, agronomic and feasibility constraints. It was applied on two case farms and the simulated waste allocations were compared to those chosen by the farmers over periods of 3 and 4 years, respectively. The evaluation showed that the waste allocations generated by the model were consistent with the strategies of the farmers. Fumigene was then used in investigating the impact of taking into account the phosphorus (P) fertilization constraints instead of only the nitrogen constraints. In the case studied, balancing P fertilization over 5 years led to small changes in waste allocation. Balancing P fertilization every year caused bigger changes and led to export of a part of the wastes. In a general way, Fumigene can be coupled with environmental evaluation tools to compare the impacts of different waste allocation strategies.

Abstract:
The management of municipal solid waste (MSW) appears to be one of the major ecological problems at present. Selecting sites for the disposal of municipal solid wastes or waste utilization facilities is one of the most contentious aspects of waste management. The present study aimed to develop the methodology to assess the natural protection of the geological environment from contamination upon the implementation of large ecological projects due to the allocation of MSW utilization facilities. The case of the Central Federal District of Russia (CFD) is taken as an example. The suitability of territories for municipal solid waste disposal is assessed according to the presence of weakly permeable deposits in the geological cross-section and their occurrence mode. A “map of engineering geological zoning CFD by the conditions of allocation MSW disposal sites and utilization facilities” has been compiled to a scale 1:2500000. The map gives a general indication of the suitability of the planned sites for waste disposal within the regarded region and showed that, for the bulk of territory, the allocation of MSW disposal and management facilities requires undertaking additional measures for the geoenvironmental protection from contamination.

Abstract:
Background: The significance of healthcare wastes (HCWs) consists in their hazardous component, which constitutes real danger to public health. In Nigeria, healthcare waste management (HCWM) has remained a problem yet to be properly recognized and so addressed. The study aimed to sensitise health workers and the public on the need for proper management of HCWs, considering the public health implications of not doing so.Methods: The waste management systems of ten healthcare facilities (HCFs) were assessed, using a modification of the WHO rapid assessment tool. In each HCF, segregated wastes were collected daily for ten days and quantified by weighing, using a spring balance.Results: Administratively, the HCWM system was poor in the ten HCFs (40.6%). 70% of them had satisfactory waste segregation, 81%, good waste treatment, and 26.7% adequate transportation methods for waste. None of the HCFs had budget allocation for HCWM, and 90% had inadequate storage facilities. Mean waste generation was 1.81 kg/day, 0.23 kg/patient/day, 0.16 kg/bed/day, and proportion of infectious wastes 16.8%. Correlation between the number of patients and proportion of infectious waste, was positive, strong and significant (r=0.80, p=0.01), and between bed occupancy rate and proportion of infectious waste, was positive too, but weak, and insignificant (r=0.34, p=0.34).Conclusions: In view of the identified weaknesses of the ten HCFs in HCWM, budget allocations for HCWM, improving waste storage facilities and transportation, with strengthening of waste segregation, collection, and treatment, would help to ensure adequate HCWM in the HCFs.

Abstract:
The Nuclear Waste Fund constitutes a financial system that finances future costs of the management of spent nuclear fuel as well as decommissioning of nuclear power plants. The fund invests its capital under strict rules which are stipulated in the investment policy established by the board. The policy stipulates that the fund can only invest according to certain allocation limits, and restricts it to invest solely in nominal and inflation-linked bonds issued by the Swedish state as well as treasury securities. A norm portfolio is built to compare the performance of the NWF’s investments. On average, the NWF has outperformed the norm portfolio on recent years, but it may not always have been optimal. Recent studies suggest that allocation limits should be revised over time as the return and risk parameters may change over time. This study focused on simulating three different portfolios where the allocation limits and investment options were extended to see if these extensions would outperform the norm portfolio while maintaining a set risk limit. Portfolio A consisted of OMRX REAL and OMRX TBOND indexes, Portfolio B consisted of OMRX REAL, OMRX TBOND and S&P Sweden 1+ Year Investment Grade Corporate Bond Indexes, and Portfolio C consisted of OMXR REAL, OMRX TBOND and OMXSPI indexes. The return of each portfolio for different weight distributions of the assets were simulated in MATLAB, and polynomial regression models were built in order to optimize the return as a function of the assets’ weights using a Lagrange Multiplier approach for each portfolio. The results depicted that the maximal returns of Portfolios A, B and C were 4.00%, 4.13% and 7.93% respectively, outperforming the norm portfolio’s average return of 3.69% over the time period 2009-2016.

Abstract:
The efficient organization of waste collection systems based on bins located along the streets involves the solution of several tactical optimization problems. In particular, the bin configuration and sizing at each collection site as well as the service frequency over a given planning horizon have to be decided. In this context, a higher service frequency leads to higher routing costs, but at the same time less or smaller bins are required, which leads to lower bin allocation investment costs. The bins used have different types and different costs and there is a limit on the space at each collection site as well as a limit on the total number of bins of each type that can be used. In this paper we consider the problem of designing a collection system consisting of the combination of a vehicle routing and a bin allocation problem in which the trade-off between the associated costs has to be considered. The solution approach combines an effective variable neighborhood search metaheuristic for the routing part with a mixed integer linear programming-based exact method for the solution of the bin allocation part. We propose hierarchical solution procedures where the two decision problems are solved in sequence, as well as an integrated approach where the two problems are considered simultaneously. Extensive computational testing on synthetic and real-world instances with hundreds of collection sites shows the benefit of the integrated approaches with respect to the hierarchical ones.

Abstract:

Waste management is a global environmental issue which concerns about a very significant problem in today’s world. There is a considerable amount of disposal of waste without proper segregation which has lead to both economic and environment sufferings. It is still practiced in many cities. There is a tremendous amount of loss in terms of environmental degradation, health hazards and economic descend due to direct disposal of waste. It is better to segregate the waste at the initial stages where it is generated, rather than going for a later option which is inconvenient and expensive. There has to be appropriate planning for proper waste management by means of analysis of the waste situation of the area.

This paper would deal with, how Geographical Information System can be used as a decision support tool for planning waste management. A model is designed for the case study area in an Indian city for the purpose of planning waste management. The suggestions for amendments in the system through GIS based model would reduce the waste management workload to some extent and exhibit remedies for some of the SWM problems in the case study area. The waste management issues are considered to solve some of the present situation problems like proper allocation and relocation of waste bins, check for unsuitability and proximity convenience due to waste bin to the users, proposal of recyclable waste bins for the required areas and future suggestions. The model will be implemented on the Aurangabad city’s case study area data for the analysis and the results will suggest some modification in the existing system which is expected to reduce the waste management workload to a certain extent.

The increase in the municipal and industrial waste generation has caused enviromental and public health problems and as a consequence laws exist to address the issue. In Brazil, with the Federal Law No. 12,350 / 10 about the Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos reverse logistics (RL) of some products has become mandatory, including waste tires. However, RL of waste tires has been structured since environmental government agency resolutions propose treatment for tires disposal incorrectly in the environment and new generation of waste tires. Currently, the reverse network is managed by the tire manufacturers and importers associations, and destinations are commonly used are co-processing in cement kilns, and the recovery of rubber and steel as secondary products, by processes such as scrapping or lamination. Increasing transportation and operation costs in the logistics network make the network design critical for the full compliance with the legal goal. This network design is aligned with a planning that considers the financial issues like the minimization of costs or the maximization of profit, while meets the requirements of environmental government agencies. So it involves key strategic decisions, as the location of facilities and material flows, taking into account many parameters simultaneously. The objective of this study is to propose a model for waste tires reverse logistics considering: (i) flows from the output of the collection points (called ecopontos ) to the destination companies; (ii) the possibility of processes as the sorting of used tires in usable condition or not; (iii) the grinding process as an intermediate phase and for which type of destination the tire would be sent. Still are considered fixed costs for the installation of storage centers, for sorting used tires, and intermediary companies, for grinding and separation of components, in addition to the variable operating costs, transportation and potential revenues generated from the substitution of raw materials or fuel in destination companies. The model is a mixed integer linear problem (MILP) with multiple time periods. Experiments are done with a single and multiple periods, finally were present some sensitivity analysis. Other financial constraints as the annual budget and an approach that includes the carbon footprint (CO2) in the transport and processing are explored. The results showed configurations that meet the goal and have a small profit, indicating that storage centers are preferred in places far from destination points and low demand, while the pre-processing companies have opposite behavior. When using the carbon footprint, it was found that the sorting of used tires gain more importance in the view of reducing emissions, because there is less emission in the reuse or refurbishment compared to the manufacturing of new tires.
O aumento na geração de resíduos urbanos e industriais tem ocasionado problemas de ordem ambiental e de saúde pública, e, como consequência, legislações específicas surgiram para tratar do assunto. No Brasil, a Lei Federal nº 12.350/10, da Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos, tornou obrigatória a logística reversa (LR) de alguns produtos, entre os quais o pneu usado sem condição de rodagem (inservível). Entratanto, a LR de pneus inservíveis já se apresentava em fase de estruturação, uma vez que resoluções ambientais propunham o tratamento do passivo deixado por anos de descarte incorreto dos pneus no meio ambiente. Atualmente, a rede reversa de pneus é administrada por associações de fabricantes e importadores, e as destinações comumente utilizadas são o coprocessamento, em fornos de cimenteira, e a recuperação da borracha e do aço como subprodutos, por meio de processos como a granulação ou a laminação. Os crescentes custos do transporte terrestre e as proposições de melhorias na rede logística tornam a configuração da rede de logística reversa de pneus como uma proposta para o total cumprimento da meta, alinhados ao planejamento que considere as questões financeiras como a minimização de custos logísticos ou maximização do lucro, enquanto cumprem as exigências dos órgãos ambientais. Esta configuração envolve decisões estratégicas essenciais, como a localização de instalações e determinação dos fluxos de materiais, sendo que muitos parâmetros estão presentes simultaneamente. O objetivo deste estudo é propor um modelo de configuração de rede logística reversa de pneus inservíveis considerando: (i) fluxos a partir da saída dos pontos de coleta (ecopontos) até as empresas destinadoras; (ii) processos como a possibilidade da triagem dos pneus usados em servíveis e inservíveis; (iii) a trituração como fase intermediária e para qual tipo de destinação enviar. São considerados ainda custos fixos para instalação de centros de armazenamento, para triagem dos pneus usados, e empresas intermediárias, para trituração e separação de componentes, além dos custos variáveis de operação, transporte e as possíveis rendas geradas com a substituição da matéria-prima ou combustível nas empresas destinadoras. O modelo apresenta formulação linear inteira mista (MILP) com múltiplos períodos. São feitos experimentos com único período, e com a variação de parâmetros. Posteriormente são estudadas restrições financeiras como orçamento anual e uma abordagem que inclui a pegada de carbono (CO2) no transporte e processamento. Os resultados encontrados apresentaram configurações que cumprem a meta e apresentam um pequeno lucro, indicando que os centros de armazenamento são preferíveis em locais afastados das destinadoras e com baixa demanda, enquanto as empresas intermediárias apresentam comportamento oposto. Quando se utilizou a pegada de carbono, verificou-se que a triagem de pneus ganha mais importância, dada a redução nas emissões do reuso ou reforma dos pneus em relação à fabricação de novos pneus.

Cette thèse couvre deux sujets : le dessin des permis à polluer et la gestion des déchets. Le premier chapitre analyse la mise en œuvre des permis à polluer. Le chapitre se concentre sur les impacts de la distribution liés à la sévérité de l’allocation gratuite basée sur la production courante quand deux secteurs sont couverts par le marché des permis et le plafond reste constant. Un nouveau type d’augmentation des profits dans les secteurs qui ne sont pas exposés à la concurrence internationale a été démontré théoriquement. Le deuxième chapitre traite la question de la différenciation de l’allocation des permis dans les différentes régions, liée à la possibilité des entreprises à délocaliser. Les conditions dans lesquelles le bien-être décroît avec la délocalisation sont déterminées. Dans ce cas, des distributions gratuites de permis peuvent être utilisées pour éviter la délocalisation des entreprises. Le troisième chapitre compare l’efficacité des programmes de la responsabilité élargie du producteur (REP) avec l’efficacité d’une ex-ante taxe. La taxe permet plus de flexibilité ex-ante quant aux conditions du marché, mais la REP permet plus d’adaptation ex-post aux réalisations des coûts. Ainsi, l’efficacité relative de la REP augmente avec l’incertitude des coûts et la compétitivité du marché
This thesis covers two subjects. One is the design of pollution permits and the other is the waste management. The first chapter analyses the implementation of pollution permits. It focuses on the distributional impacts linked with the stringency of output-based allocation,when two sectors are covered by the market for permits and the total cap is held constant. Theoretically demonstrated is a new type of profit increase in sectors that are not exposed to international competition. The second chapter addresses the issue of differentiating permit allocation across areas, this being linked to the possibility of firms to relocate. The conditions under which welfare decreases with relocation are determined. In such a case, free allowances may be used to prevent firms from relocating. The third chapter compares the efficiency of extended producer responsibility (EPR) programs and the efficiency of an ex-ante tax. The tax allows more ex-ante flexibility regarding market conditions, but the EPR allows more ex-post adaption to cost realizations. As a result, the relative efficiency of the EPR increases with uncertainty of the costs and competitiveness of the market

Recently, because of the economic growth in Taiwan, the number of the vehicle was increased rapidly. Furthermore, many waste tires untreated were resulted from the incompleteness of the cleaning and treatment of waste tires. Because piling up the waste tires arbitrarily often causes environmental and sanitary problems and brings accidental disasters, many countries begin to value these problems. On the other hand, waste tire is a kind of resource and can bring in fairly added-value by being treated and re-exploited. So related authorities start to attack importance to the management of waste tires. About the cleaning and treatment of waste tires, most researches preferred the treating method but not the proper planning of the location of processing station and transportation routes. And, the achievement level of the goal is uncertain. So fuzzy multi-objective programming method is applied to plan these problems at the same time in this study. Operation cost and environmental pollution are considered when deciding the locations of processing station. And transportation cost and the influence on traffic are considered when choosing the routes. At last, this study cites an example which to deal with the problems of waste tires in Taoyuan by the fuzzy multi-objective planning model. As a result, decision makers can plan the location of processing station and transportation routes properly by fuzzy multi-objective programming method. And the satisfactory degree of the total objectives is 0.62.

In determining a proper waste load allocation for a river, in addition to the relation between pollution sources and the receiving water body, factors such as land uses, catchment areas and population density should also be considered. In this study, the equity and effectiveness of waste load allocations based on different factors were evaluated by the proposed optimization models . The QUAL2E model was used to simulate the water quality variation of the river water body. The Genetic Algorithm was used to calibrate model parameters for improving the quality of simulation. Several waste load allocation optimization models were developed based on the impact coefficients determined by the water quality model and several equity factors. Allowable total waste loads were calculated by the optimization models with consideration of various equity factors to avoid possible discharge bias favored to any single area. A web-based decision support system (DSS) was developed to facilitate the analysis and decision for a proper waste load allocation. The DSS has been made available on the Internet and can be accessed from any where and any time on the network. The DSS has six major modules including a database, a data analysis, the water quality simulation model, an optimization, a web-based geographical information system (GIS) and a decision support modules. The database module manages the data collected for water quality, hydrology and point source pollutants. The data analysis module produces various statistical charts. The water quality simulation model module provides a friendly interface to simulate the water quality. The optimization module generates various waste load allocation alternatives. The web-based GIS module illustrates spatial results by graphical map layers. The decision support module integrated all other modules to facilitate the analysis of waste load allocation alternatives. A case study for Wu River was implemented to explore and demonstrate the applicability and effectiveness of the DSS.

Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) can be used as fuel of combustion equipments in enterprises by proper procedures. Turning MSW into Waste Derived Fuel (WDF) could not only solve the problem of waste disposal, but also save the cost of fuels for enterprises. Furthermore, in the viewpoint of GHGs reduction, WDF, which is a substitute for combustion, is one of the ways to reduce emission. This study focused on waste rubber and waste liquid, proceeded carbon footprint verification (CFV) of WDF. Nevertheless, It will affect the quality of data in carbon footprint accounting if enterprises using an irrational principle of allocation for the duration of the CFV, and will result in different carbon footprints. In order to solve the problem of allocation which enterprises must confront with, it’s necessary to conduct a proper allocation principle, which they can follow and catch on. This study analyzed the calorific values of WDF and soft coal for boilers of circulating fluid bed in a domestic paper mill (in normal operating condition) ; in accordance with the allocation data, the proportions were, waste rubber: 0.33, waste woods: 0.18, sludge of pulp and paper: 0.18, soft coal: 0.31; CO2 emission: 2,771.227 kg, CH4: 0.47 kg, N2O: 0.073 kg. The research also reviewed incinerators of rotary kiln form the domestic recycling facility, with a ton of combination of waste liquid and MSW, in normal operating condition of input proportion, the output were, CO2:1,735.162 kg, CH4: 0.171 kg, N2O: 0.025 kg and the ratio of input was 0.53: 0.47 (waste liquid: MSW). The case studies belong to the allocation of repeatedly use system. It’s necessary to categorize the WDF to open loop or close loop; if it’s categorized to both of them, the formula of calculating recycled materials considering both open and close loop can be used to estimate allocation. This study of allocation was in accordance with the input and calorific value of WDF, and didn’t consider low-carbon allocation and emission. We suggest that the principle can be build according to its economic value (such as air pollution control fee) in order to illustrate environmental burden of WDF system, try to seek the proper proportion of low-carbon emission and achieve the goal of mitigation of global warming.

Abstract:
AbstractThermoeconomics is a science that reconciles thermodynamic and economic concepts. It can be divided into three fields of action: cost allocation, diagnosis and optimization. Most thermoeconomicists agree that exergy is the most appropriate thermodynamic magnitude to associate with cost. In some applications, exergy disaggregation is required. Literature shows several thermoeconomic methodologies. Despite the wide use and their respective fields of action, all models have limitations in the dissipative equipment isolation and waste treatment or an increase in complexity in thermoeconomic modeling. In order to fill part of this scientific gap in thermoeconomics, a recent methodology, the A&F Model, is proposed. This new approach disaggregates physical exergy into just two terms, namely Helmholtz energy and flow work. This work presents for the first time the use of this new approach, through a cost allocation, in a cogeneration system with regenerative gas turbine, and compares it with conventional thermoeconomic methodologies.

Abstract:
Food insecurity is a recurrent condition in which members of a household do not have enough food to cover their nutritional needs; this condition contributes to increasing social vulnerability of those affected. In Peru, there are more than 9 million people who suffer this condition, which generates malnutrition and anemia, mostly in children. On the other hand, the waste of food is associated with production the large amounts of greenhouse gas emissions that affect global warming. According to reports in Peru, 20% of what is food produced becomes waste. This scenario in terms of food for Peruvians represents 3 billion calories in wasted food that could feed 2 million people. The Peruvian Food Bank manages food donations, ensuring this food can reach people in need through humanitarian aid entities. This applied research work uses the tools of operations research to determine a solution to the problem of maximizing the combination of food orders to be distributed based on their total nutritional value to the beneficiaries, seeking maximum coverage and minimum logistic costs.

Abstract:
In this paper, we study the problem of matching a set of items to a set of agents partitioned into types so as to balance fairness towards the types against overall utility/efficiency. We extend multiple desirable properties of indivisible goods allocation to our model and investigate the possibility and hardness of achieving combinations of these properties, e.g. we prove that maximizing utilitarian social welfare under constraints of typewise envy-freeness up to one item (TEF1) is computationally intractable. We also define a new concept of waste for this setting, show experimentally that augmenting an existing algorithm with a marginal utility maximization heuristic can produce a TEF1 solution with reduced waste, and also provide a polynomial-time algorithm for computing a non-wasteful TEF1 allocation for binary agent-item utilities.

Pessino, Carola, Nadir Altinok, and Cristian Chagalj. Allocative Efficiency of Government Spending for Growth in Latin American Countries. Inter-American Development Bank, June 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0004310.

Full text
Abstract:
There is scant empirical economic research regarding the way that Latin American governments efficiently allocate their spending across different functions to achieve higher growth. While most papers restrict their analysis to the size of government, much less is known about the composition of spending and its implications for long-term growth. This paper sheds light on how allocating expenditures to investment in quality human and physical capital, and avoiding waste on inefficient expenditures, enhance growth in Latin America. This paper uses a novel dataset on physical and human capital and detailed public spending that includes -for the first time- Latin American countries, which is categorized by a cross-classification that provides the breakdown of government expenditure, both, by economic and by functional heads. The database covers 42 countries of the OECD and LAC between 1985 and 2017. There are five main results. First, the estimated growth equations show significant positive effects of the factors of production on growth and plausible convergence rates (about 2 percent). The estimated effect of the physical investment rate is positive and significant with a long-run elasticity of 1.2. Second, while the addition of years of education as a proxy for human capital tends to have no effect on growth, the addition of a new variable that measures quality-adjusted years of schooling as a proxy for human capital turns out to have a positive and significant effect across all specifications with a long-run elasticity of 1.1. However, if public spending on education (excluding infrastructure spending) is added to the factor specification, growth is not affected. This is mainly because, once quality is considered, spending more on teacher salaries has no effect on student outcomes. Therefore, the key is to increase quality, not just school performance or education spending. Third, both physical and human capital are equally important for growth: the effect of increasing one standard deviation of physical capital or human capital statistically has the same impact on economic growth. Fourth, increasing public investment spending (holding public spending constant) is positive and significant for growth (a 1% increase in public investment would increase the long-term GDP per capita by about 0.3 percent), in addition to the effect of the private investment rate. However, the effect of public spending on payroll, pensions and subsidies does not contribute to economic growth. Fifth, the overall effect of the size of public spending on economic growth is negative in most specifications. An increase in the size of government by about 1 percentage point would decrease 4.1 percent the long-run GDP per capita, but the more effective the government is, the less harmful the size of government is for long-term growth.

Exploring the Prospects of Using 3D Printing Technology in the South African Human Settlements. Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf), 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/assaf.2021/0074.

Full text
Abstract:
South Africa is a country with significant socio-economic development challenges, with the majority of South Africans having limited or non-existent access to basic infrastructure, services, housing and socio-economic opportunities etc. The urban housing backlog currently exceeds 2.4 million houses, with many families living in informal settlements. The Breaking New Grounds Policy, 2014 for the creation of sustainable human settlements, acknowledges the challenges facing human settlements, such as, decreasing human settlements grants allocation, increasing housing backlog, mushrooming of informal settlements and urbanisation. The White Paper on Science, Technology and Innovation (STI), 2019 notes that South Africa has not yet fully benefited from the potential of STI in addressing the socio-economic challenges and seeks to support the circular economy principles which entail a systematic change of moving to a zero or low waste resource-efficient society. Further to this, the Science and Technology Roadmap’s intention is to unlock the potential of South Africa’s human settlements for a decent standard of living through the smart uptake of science, technology and innovation. One such novel technology is the Three-Dimensional (3D) printing technology, which has produced numerous incredible structures around the world. 3D printing is a computer-controlled industrial manufacturing process which encompasses additive means of production to create 3D shapes. The effects of such a technology have a potential to change the world we live in and could subsequently pave the roadmap to improve on housing delivery and reduce the negative effects of conventional construction methods on the environment. To this end, the Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf), in partnership with the Department of Science and Innovation (DSI) and the University of Johannesburg (UJ) hosted the second virtual IID seminar titled: Exploring the Prospects of Using 3D Printing Technology in the South African Human Settlements, on 01 March 2021 to explore the potential use of 3D printing technology in human settlements. The webinar presented preliminary findings from a study conducted by UJ, addressing the following topics: 1. The viability of 3D printing technology 2. Cost comparison of 3D printed house to conventional construction 3. Preliminary perceptions on 3D printing of houses Speakers included: Dr Jennifer Mirembe (NDoHS), Dr Jeffrey Mahachi, Mr Refilwe Lediga, Mr Khululekani Ntakana and Dr Luxien Ariyan, all from UJ. There was a unanimous consensus that collaborative efforts from all stakeholders are key to take advantage of this niche technology. @ASSAf_Official; @dsigovza; @go2uj; @The_DHS; #SA 3D_Printing; #3D Print_Housing; #IID
