Automotive Air Conditioning: How It Works and Key Components
Air Conditioning System Basics
The primary goal of an air conditioning system is to reduce and control the temperature, humidity, and purity of the air within a vehicle’s cabin. The ideal cabin temperature ranges from 21°C to 24°C, with relative humidity between 40% and 70%. The systems commonly used are of the ‘continuous cycle’ type.
These systems aim to achieve and maintain a comfortable interior temperature quickly and consistently. They offer a range of temperature selections to ensure comfort

The Andes Ranges: High Mountains with Glaciers
The Andes in Argentina are a magnificent mountain range, notable for their immense scale and diverse forms. They are the largest mountain range on the continent.
The Arid Andes feature a vast collection of high peaks, among the largest in the Americas and globally. The longitudinal mountain strands are isolated and partly branched clusters, separated by valleys running in both north-south and east-west directions. Mesozoic sediments

Mastering Vermicomposting: Stages & Essential Care
Introduction to Vermicomposting
Vermicomposting is a bio-oxidative process in which earthworms convert organic waste into nutrient-rich compost known as vermicompost or worm castings. This method is eco-friendly, cost-effective, and highly efficient in recycling organic matter. It not only helps in waste management but also improves soil health, fertility, and crop yield naturally.
The process depends on the activity of decomposer organisms, mainly earthworms such as Eisenia fetida, Eudrilus eugeniae,

Plate tectonics is currently the theory that best explains the dynamics of Earth’s geological processes.
Theory of Plate Tectonics
This theory proposes the dynamics of the Earth based on several key factors:
- Ocean floor
- Lithospheric plates
- Plate boundaries
- Lithospheric dynamics
Ocean Floor Dynamics
Oceans cover 71% of the planet’s surface. Beneath the waves lies an underwater relief known as the oceanic ridge, where sediments are scarce.
Characteristics of the Oceanic Lithosphere

Wastewater and Waste Management Fundamentals
Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP)
A Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) is a facility where a set of purification and treatment systems are applied to wastewater. The goal is to enable its reuse, decontamination, and safe disposal into the environment or directly into the sea, without risks to health.
WWTP Schematic
Water Line:
- Pretreatment
- Primary Treatment
- Secondary Treatment
- Tertiary Treatment
- Disinfection
Sludge Line:
- Sludge Thickening
- Sludge Stabilization
