E-waste or Electronic waste is garbage generates after the electrical goods such as computers, printers mobile, TV and others. Each year millions of tons of garbage come into the picture and only a small amount is came into contact of any kind of recycling. 100,000 tons is exported from UK and a large amount exported to china. The biggest problem is to recycle that big amount and then use it again and also industries are working to extract the toxic metals from the devices, which infect their skin and led them to skin disease.


After exposing the cultured lung cells to the organic-soluble and water-soluble constituents of the samples, the researchers tested for the level of Interleukin-8 (IL-8), a key mediator of inflammatory response, and Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), chemically reactive molecules that can cause extensive damage in excess. The samples were also tested for the expression of the p53 gene – a tumour suppressor gene that produces a protein to help counteract cell damage. Published on a site.



Many people have lost their life during a long contact of e-waste, that’s why the factories are using latest technologies to save the workers and provide them proper equipment to be safe from all kinds of disease but in small factories this can’t just be done.

Number one in strangest malls: Iluma

Whenever we hear of a shopping centre we all just imagine a building and its inside full of shops but not many thinks about the exterior of a mall. Some people think about the security expertise and many think about the decors. Keeping security in mind people are more conscious about the fraud being done at many places regarding card payments. Therefore the securities in charges have been taking major steps in preventing such frauds. For people who think of the exterior of such building this is for you as you might like to visit the iconic Iluma, it is situated in Bugis, Singapore and was inaugurated in the year 2009 and have tied its bond to the area as an art and entertainment district.



“Architects tasked with building malls are faced with countless challenges: The mall needs to be spacious to account for dozens of stores, but not so big that the distances tire shoppers; the building needs to let in light and air, but not so much that it competes with display lighting; and customers should get a little lost, meandering from shop to shop, but exits need to be easy to find in an emergency.” This was published in a new site.

The very famous retail architecture expert of DLR Group Chris Thomas explains about the uniqueness of the place that we typically name inline retail while we generally talk of shopping malls that has interior space filled with small shops in line. And therefore it is fixed with department stores. The only problem that the Iluma has tried to break is that no mall has exteriors. This way the place breaks the ever going mold. Having rectangular shape filled with an illuminated red color on one side of the building and another side occupies the boasting of the Iluma of a curved façade, complimented with high tech lights illumination display, which frequently has messages glowing across the establishment.
