Struvite (MgNH4PO4.6H2O) solubility and its application to a piggery effluent problem [PDF]
Struvite (MgNH4P04• 6H20) solution chemistry was studied in order to understand a struvite scaling problem which exists in the pipe network of a series of 4 effluent lagoons at a piggery.

A Tool for the Evaluation of Irrigation Water Quality in the Arid and Semi-Arid Regions [PDF]
In the Mediterranean arid and semi-arid regions, large amounts of low quality waters could be used for crop irrigation, but the adoption of articulated classifications with too rigid quality limits can often reduce the recoverable quantities of water and

Regional assessment of groundwater recharge in the lower Mekong Basin [PDF]
Groundwater recharge remains almost totally unknown across the Mekong River Basin, hindering the evaluation of groundwater potential for irrigation. A regional regression model was developed to map groundwater recharge across the Lower Mekong Basin where

MAGTWIST: A compact magnetic rotary actuator, enabling smooth, stepless rotation, and on‐demand locking. Inspired by peristalsis, a soft polymer belt generates a traveling‐wave, enabling 270° rotation when heated. Cooling stiffens the belt, locking it in position and enabling it to withstand high loads.

Responses of Yield, Efficiency, and Phenotypes of Spring Wheat in Arid Regions to Water Regulation
To clarify the optimal water regulation strategy for spring wheat in arid areas, this study set up three irrigation methods [film-mulched drip irrigation (FD), non-mulched drip irrigation (ND), non-mulched subsurface drip irrigation (MD)] and five water ...

The effect of irrigation method on the quality and shelf-life of strawberry fruit in organic production [PDF]
The irrigation method did not affect either the shelf-life or the quality of fruit. In organic strawberry production grey mould is a major problem. Strawberry varieties differ from each other in disease susceptibility and the quality and shelf-life of ...
