Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE ASSOCIATION OF IONS IN THE SOIL SOLUTION OF SALINE SOILSA. P. Endovitsky, T. M. Minkina, V. P. Kalinichenko et al.The chemical equilibrium in the soil solution determines the dynamics of its material composition, migration and accumulation of salts. In the soil solution are formed electrically neutral ion pairs CaCO3°; CaSO4°, MgCO3°, MgSO4°, charged ion pairs CaHCO3+, MgHCO3+, NaCO3-, NaSO4-, CaOH+, MgOH+. The calculation method proposed for quantitative assessment of real ion forms in the soil solution of solonetz taking … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 12 Feb 2014 · 8,051 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of the Exergy of Four Wheat StrawsYaning Zhang, A. E. Ghaly, Bingxi LiExergy is a measurement of how far a certain material deviates from a state of equilibrium with the environment. It is a useful tool for improving the efficiency of energy-resource use. The exergy values of four wheat straws (Absolvant, Max, Monopol and Vuka) were determined in this study. The effects of physical and chemical properties (moisture content, ash content, LHV … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,494 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Bidispersed Model System and Binary System for FerrofluidsJian Li, Decai LiFerrofluids, dispersions of magnetic nanoparticles, are typical dipolar fluids whose behaviors can be modified using an external magnetic field. Such magnetically controlled effects result from interactions between the magnetic particles, which are enhanced by an applied magnetic field. Since the system of particles always possesses a size distribution, real ferrofluids represent a polydispersed system. A theoretical model of a bidispersed … …Physics International, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2013 · 7,003 accessesView PDFCite
