A petroleum refining complex was required to upgrade its wastewater treatment system to meet newly adopted toxicity requirements and to handle increased flows. A four-phase investigation led to the design and construction of a full-scale PACT® system. The first phase, waste stream characterization, indicated that the effluent toxicity was organic in nature. The second phase, bench-scale screening, indicated that the toxicity was removable by activated carbon adsorption. The third phase, comparative pilot testing, indicated that although both extended aeration and PACT® processes were effective in reducing COD concentrations, only PACT® could remove the toxicity. In the fourth phase investigation, the PACT® pilot plant was tested for various conditions, including dry- and wet-weather flow conditions. The full-scale PACT® plant has been operating for more than two years and is meeting all expectations.

The article analyses the results of the historical research activities of productive meetings at the enterprises of Soviet industry in the 1920s-30s. Analysis of the historiography has allowed the authors highlighting the trends and stages of work study meetings. In the fi rst phase in the second half of the 1920s, the research focuses on the forms and methods of organisation of workers' self-government and its role in the life of enterprises. Subsequently, in the 1930s, the production meetings are considered as an element of socialist competition. At the third stage, in the 1950s-70s, historians focused on the role of production meetings in the development of political consciousness of workers. In 1980s-90s, interest in the study of this topic is reduced. At the present stage, due to the intensifi cation of the study of history of the working movement, the topic of production meetings has again become topical. The authors identify the tasks of further study of the history of production meetings.
