    Historically, a quiet new idea from the USA. The term was coined in 1932 in a pamphlet about ending the Great Depression by producing waste. It became popular in the plastic age, the late 1950s.

    Before, people reused things and repaired them. They collected damaged pieces as spare parts stocks. If you bought something, it was for decades.

  29. ⚙️ My latest preprint presents a thermodynamic rationale for a two-stage cascade Eutectic Freeze Crystallization (EFC) process, developed for the treatment and resource recovery of hypersaline mine water from the Svystunova Gully impoundment (published in Ukrainian).

    ☝️ Key highlights:
    🔹 Selective phase separation: Conducting the process in two stages with inter-stage solids separation at -20.0°C provides a 2.5°C operating buffer before chloride salts begin to precipitate, ensuring clean separation of sulfate and chloride fractions.
    🔹 High water recovery: The total yield of desalinated water (as pure ice) reaches 964.07 g per 1 kg of initial H2O (96.4% recovery rate).
    🔹 Effluent minimization: The initial wastewater volume is reduced 62-fold, concentrating the residual components into a compact, heavy bittern.
