The Zero emissions concept envisages all industrial inputs being used in final products or converted into value-added inputs for other industries or processes. In this way, industries are reorganized into clusters such that each industry's wastes / by-products are fully matched with the input requirements of another industry, and the integrated whole produces no waste of any kind. This technique is based on the well-established economic analysis tool known as the input/output approach. In the framework of the zero emission concept capture of CO2 plays an important role. CO2 can be captured and permanently stored, or it can be re-used. Carbon sequestration is a two-step process where the capture of CO2 from a gas stream is followed by its permanent storage. The capture step contributes 75% to the overall carbon sequestration process cost. For this reason, the scientific community has paid a great attention to the development of new processes for CO2 capture. Currently, there is a wide range of technologies to separate CO2 from gas streams. They are based on different physical and chemical processes including absorption, adsorption, cryogenics and membrane technology. The choice of a suitable technology depends on the characteristics of the flue gas stream and, as a consequence, on the power plant technology. As an alternative to conventional process es for CO2 separation and capture, membrane technology shows great potentiality for CO2 capture owing to its easy applicability, efficiency, flexibility, ability to maintain high CO2 pressure and to perform separations at low energy penalties. CO2-selective membranes allow separation of CO2 from different gas streams, such as: flue gas (post-combustion system), natural gas (natural gas processing) and hydrogen (pre-combustion systems) or oxygen from nitrogen (in an oxyfuel combustion system). In the framework of zero emission concept, this paper gives an overview and analysis of the types of membranes used and membrane technology application in CO2 capture from the point of cost and energy consumption.

Health literacy measurement means appliance of different instruments which determine the degree of understanding of read and written information, as well as numerical skills necessary for making relevant health decisions. The objective of this study is to identify instruments which are used to measure health literacy at a primary healthcare level, to compare them and analyze their structure in order to examine their relevance for health literacy evaluation in public pharmacies. Collection of data related to health literacy is done by literature search, and for every instrument for measuring health literacy given is its content and description of performance and conditions for use (with special view if it is applicable in pharmacy settings). Analysis of instruments is done by method of comparison. There were identified 5 instruments for direct measuring of health literacy and each could be used in pharmacy settings. It was concluded that the NVS (Newest Vital Sign) which measures functional and critical health literacy in a very short time would be the most suitable instrument for health literacy measurement in pharmacy settings.

Recent studies show that seniors will soon become one of the major prospective segments in hospitality and travel industry. Given that population aged 65+ is usually retired with pensions, they have leisure time for travelling at any time of the year. They are also the most demanding expecting services excellence and high-level security while at the same time 63% of seniors aged 65-74 reported some sort of chronic illness. Hence, energy-efficient and health-focused facilities can be a significant potential for tourism development in Sarajevo region, which is a popular destination considering its unique nature, rich gastronomic, cultural and historical heritage. However, currently there is no market segmentation tailored to specific needs of senior tourists and research aims to explore opportunities and potential for this type of services with the objective of introducing accommodation facilities for elderly based on eco-smart solutions with highlighted focus on well-being and health. Setting of still water machines and installation of renewable energy system for electricity, ventilation and heat can have various positive effects increasing security, providing more healthy conditions, influencing life expectancy and counteracting the aging. Thus, research goal is creating feasibility study on eco-smart and healthfocused facility for senior tourists in Sarajevo region using strategic management tools as a methodology instruments, including application of PEST concept, determining industry development phase as well as evaluating its structure, attractiveness and profitability via five forces of Porter model. Recommendations for future studies as well as practical implications for appropriate business actions are given in the conclusion relating to senior tourism development in Sarajevo region.
