Garlic extract improves budbreak of the 'Niagara Rosada' grapevines on sub-tropical regions Extrato de alho melhora a superação da dormência de videiras 'Niagara Rosada' em regiões subtropicais [PDF]
In the regions with mild winters, usually the chilling requirements for bud dormancy release of grapevines are not fulfilled, and only the highly toxic products CaCN2 (calcium cyanamide) and H2CN2 (hydrogen cyanamide) are recommended in conventional ...

Cyanamide route to calcium–manganese oxide foams for water oxidation [PDF]
In nature, photosynthetic water oxidation is efficiently catalysed at a protein-bound μ-oxido Mn4Ca cluster. This cluster consists of earth abundant, non-toxic elements and serves as a paragon for development of synthetic catalysts. In this study we developed porous calcium-manganese oxides with a unique foam-like nanostructure prepared via a facile ...

First Steps: Synthetic Ammonia in the United States
The synthetic ammonia industry, originally based on Fritz Haber's 1909 invention of a catalytic high-pressure method as scaled up by Carl Bosch at BASF, grew globally in the years following World War I, based on the processes of Brunner, Mond & Co ...

Measures to prevent foam formation in the anaerobic digestion of sugar beet in biogas plants
The occurrence of persistent foaming is observed in many anaerobic digesters that have sugar beet as their feedstock. The formation of foam entails a significant risk of damage to biogas plants, as gas pipes can become blocked.

Performance of ‘Maxi Gala’ apple trees as affected by budbreak promoters, in São Joaquim-SC
The application of rest breaking agents to compensate the lack of chilling is a common practice in apple orchards in Southern Brazil. However, its necessity in areas of greater chilling accumulation has been questioned over the years.
