Considering non-normative extension and too much development of cities, the lack of accurate model of consumption, increasing waste production, the most logical and most economical method for disposal of municipal waste is sanitary landfill. Given that, to identify areas prone to waste landfilling requires application of comprehensive techniques. The main objective for the present research is to select optimum place for waste sanitary landfill using Multi-Criteria techniques of FAHP(fuzzy analytic hierarchy process) and fuzzy TOPSIS(Fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution). First, determinant factors affecting landfill place from various institution were identified, collected and were standardized using geographical information system. Then by using fuzzy analytic hierarchy process, weights are calculated. After applying the weights on the corresponding criteria, using Fuzzy overlay functions combination of layers were done. Then, FTOPSIS method was used to prioritize options. Number of thirty one suitable options were calculated through running above mentioned methods. Then, one options were considered as the best as per prioritization located at south western of Shahriar city. Results showed that suitable elite options are located at better landfill compared to current one. So, this integrated approach, showed better performance than others due to taking inexact nature of phenomena.

Preventive healthcare considerations have always been prioritized over treatment. With this regard, one of the most influential approaches is investment in and attention to healthcare instructions and awareness-raising in schools. Poor oral health can pose destructive effects on students’ achievement both in school and life. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the interventional effect of a BASNEF model-based instruction on preventing and controlling oral health-related problems among male junior high school students. In this semi-experimental research, 80 students were selected and randomly divided into two groups of 40 (a control and an experimental group). The data gathering instrument was a questionnaire developed based on BASNEF model. The instructional intervention was conducted in 6 sessions. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 19, independent t-test, paired t-test, Wilcoxon along with descriptive tests (mean, standard deviation, frequency and percentage). Research findings revealed a significant divergence between the mean awareness scores and the underlying constructs of BASNEF model in the control and experimental groups (p<.001). According to the findings, instructional interventions based on BASNEF model which follow an appropriate and harmonized structure can not only raise students’ awareness and attitude but can also produce healthy behaviors among them.

Abstract Background: corrosion and scaling are of the most important characteristics of drinking water, affecting public health and water industry economy. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the corrosion and scaling potential of potable water supplied by Saqqez Rural Water and Wastewater Company. Materials and Methods: this was a descriptive study conducted on 142 samples taken from different parts of the distribution network during 2011-2012. All samples were analyzed for required physical and chemical parameters. The obtained results were compared with water quality standards and then, corrosion and scaling indices including Langelier Saturation Index (LSI), Ryznar Stability Index (RSI), Larson Ratio (LR), and Saturation Level (SL) were calculated. Results: all parameters were below the allowable limits determined by national and international qualitative drinking water standards. Biennial average of 0.73, 6.51, 0.74, and 1.96 were calculated for LSI, RSI, LR, and SL, respectively. Accordingly, potable water of the surveyed region was evaluated to be scaling based on LSI and SL, stable based on RSI, and corrosive based on LR. Finally, frequency distribution of indices during the surveyed period was reported. Conclusion: potable water of the region was in an acceptable level in terms of corrosion and scaling potential. However, considering significant differences between values of indices in a year to another year, annual survey of corrosion and scaling potential of regional potable water is strongly recommended.
