Overview of Natural Inert Dust Utilization Against Stored-Product Pests as Part of Integrated Pest Management [PDF]

Journal of Tropical Life Science
Natural inert dust has been used as a grain protectant since the ancient Aztecs of Mexico to this modern era. Natural inert dust is divided into three groups: the first group includes sand, kaolin, paddy husk ash, wood ash, and clay; the second group ...

Heliotropic dust rings for Earth climate engineering [PDF]

, 2013
This paper examines the concept of a Sun-pointing elliptical Earth ring comprised of dust grains to offset global warming. A new family of non-Keplerian periodic orbits, under the effects of solar radiation pressure and the Earth's J(2) oblateness ...

Stationary distributions for diffusions with inert drift [PDF]

, 2010
Consider reflecting Brownian motion in a bounded domain in $${\mathbb R^d}$$ that acquires drift in proportion to the amount of local time spent on the boundary of the domain.

Modelling soil dust aerosol in the Bodélé depression during the BoDEx campaign [PDF]

, 2006
We present regional model simulations of the dust emission events during the Bodélé Dust Experiment (BoDEx) that was carried out in February and March 2005 in Chad. A box model version of the dust emission model is used to test different input parameters

Dust emission in powder handling: Free falling particle plume characterisation [PDF]

, 2009
Dust generation during solids handling, principally from the free falling of bulk materials and their impact on stockpiles, can be a health threat for operators and a cause of dust explosions.

Global dust model intercomparison in AeroCom phase I [PDF]

, 2011
This study presents the results of a broad intercomparison of a total of 15 global aerosol models within the AeroCom project. Each model is compared to observations related to desert dust aerosols, their direct radiative effect, and their impact on the ...

Dust emission by powder handling: Influence of the hopper outlet on the dust plume [PDF]

, 2011
Dust generation in solids handling involving free fall of bulk materials and impacts on a stockpile can cause many problems in industry and be a great danger for operators health. This paper describes an experimental set up to characterize the dust plume
