Hydroprocessing of synthetic kerosene over a non‐sulphided Ni/Al2O3 catalyst: Impact of alcohols and ketones on alkene conversion

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Synthetic jet fuel containing non‐petroleum‐derived kerosene can be produced from synthetic kerosene obtained through processes that include a hydroprocessing step. The potential use of non‐sulphided (reduced) nickel supported on alumina (Ni/Al2O3) was evaluated as an alternative to sulphided catalysts to saturate alkenes in sulphur‐free ...

Economic and environmental implications of the development of UASB reactors in Mexico for sustainable industrial wastewater treatment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...

The adoption of low-cost low head drip irrigation in small-scale farms in Kenya [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Population growth and development will increase the demands on water resources in Africa, and hence there is a need for agriculture to use water efficiently. Drip irrigation is widely promoted for water saving at the farm level.

Enabling a Circular Water Transition: Identifying Governance Pathways for Wastewater Reuse

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over 80% of the world's wastewater is discharged untreated, making reuse a widely underutilised strategy for addressing water scarcity. Due to the complexity of implementing water reuse systems, supportive governance conditions are required to steer this process and overcome barriers.

When Policy Is the Hazard: Institutional Legitimacy and Climate Risk Attribution Among Farmers in Water Stressed California

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how farmers perceive and respond to climate policy risk in the context of drought and argues that understanding such responses is as important as understanding farmer reactions to the biophysical impacts of climate change.

Location of Drip Irrigation Tapes Affects Root Redistribution and Yield of Mature Jujube

open access: yesGuan'gai paishui xuebao, 2021
【Background】 Flooding irrigation is commonly used to water jujube in Xinjiang. It is not only an inefficient use of the scarce water resources and increases evaporation and leakage, but could also result in soil compaction and secondary soil salinization.

Method for accounting subsoil moisture in drip irrigation

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
The study emphasizes the critical role of irrigation in food safety, particularly in regions facing agricultural sustainability challenges. Conventional water management practices hinder a sustainable progress. The adoption of drip irrigation, delivering water directly to plant roots is proposed as a viable solution.

Modelling and analysis of soil wetting patterns under surfrace drip irrigation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Knowledge of the horizontal and vertical distances by which water spreads in soils under a point source is essential to the design of cost effective and efficient surface drip irrigation systems.
