Long-term application of bioorganic fertilizers improved soil biochemical properties and microbial communities of an apple orchard soil

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Soil biochemical properties and microbial communities are usually considered as important indicators of soil health because of their association with plant nutrition.

Preliminary evaluation of biomass and lipid production potential of Nannochloropsis sp. under optimal conditions with different wastewater samples for Exopolymeric substances (EPS) production [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
Wastewater is a source of toxic chemicals, heavy metals and various pathogenic microorganisms. Disposal of untreated wastes into the environment causes antibiotic resistance of organisms and various pollutions. An efficient method for treating wastewater,

Waste and Anti-Waste [PDF]

Blackfriars, 1922
For the satisfaction of the needs of the body, and the nourishment of the physical life, four things are required : food, clothing, fuel, and shelter. By labour, and by labour alone, can these necessary things be obtained, and that labour must be applied to the earth, created by God and placed in subjection to the dominion of man.

Qualitative analysis of post-consumer and post-industrial waste via near-infrared, visual and induction identification with experimental sensor-based sorting setup

MethodsX, 2022
Sensor-based sorting in waste management is a method to separate valuable material or contaminants from a waste stream. Depending on the separation property different types of sensors are used.

Physics-based machine learning toolbox for probing concentration under diffusive regime in microfluidics devices

Communications Physics
Microfluidics experiments offer high-resolution insights into transport and chemical processes in porous media, yet direct measurement of evolving concentration profiles remains challenging. Numerical simulations can serve as virtual probes but are labor-

Anatomically induced changes in rice leaf mesophyll conductance explain the variation in photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency under contrasting nitrogen supply

BMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background The ratio of CO2 mesophyll conductance (g m) to Ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) content has been suggested to positively affect photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency (PNUE).

Indirect Estimation of the Volumetric Throughput Performance in the Shredding of Solid Waste

Clean Technologies
The volume or mass throughput of a mechanical treatment plant for commercial waste represents a key performance parameter. This measurement parameter is often unavailable, as the sensor technology required is often expensive or does not provide accurate ...
