Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing of Copper (II) Adsorption Efficiency by Mixing Plantain and Orange Peelings as Bio-Sorbent SupportSamomssa Inna, Ebelle Epoi Charlotte Alvine, Adjia Zangue Henriette, Sieliechi JosephThe present study focuses on the valorization of plantain and orange peels in the field of water treatment contaminated by heavy metals, especially copper (II). To carry out this study, simplex centroid mixture design was used to determine best mixture from plantain and orange peelings through iodine number, specific surface area and point of zero charge. The influence of contact … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 19 Oct 2020 · 6,920 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on Carbon Source Screening Technology for Prevention and Control of Banana Fusarium WiltJin Li, Tingting Duan, Zhong Lin et al.With the spread of banana Fusarium wilt and the aggravation of the damage, it has become the biggest threat to the banana industry. Many studies have shown that bio-organic fertilizer plays an important role in the prevention and control of banana wilt, but most studies focused on biocontrol bacterium screening, not screening carbon sources that could prevent banana wilt, which … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2020 · 7,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Banana, Pineapple and Watermelon Wastes-Substrate: As Consortiums to Remediating Cyanide Polluted SoilFlorence Obiageli Nduka, Samuel Chibuike Ubani, Victor Eshu Okpashi et al.The act of processing cassava for varied food products has come with unguided and wide-spread contamination of cyanide in the environment. The need for effective reduction in cost to enable remediation of cyanide-contaminated sites from cassava mill factories is the purpose of this investigation. This involves bio-stimulation of organic wastes with indigenous microorganisms to degrade cyanide. The application of organic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2018 · 9,930 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiotechnological Approaches for Production of High Value Compounds from Bread WasteSaima Haroon, Anu Vinthan, Leonardo Negron et al.A growing global population has led to an increasing demand for food processing industries and consequently the generation of large amounts of food waste. This problem has intensified due to slow progress in the development of effective waste treatment and disposal strategies. Food waste such as bread waste is a reservoir of complex carbohydrates, proteins and lipids which have the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2016 · 8,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE HEAT ENHANCEMENT AND THE BIO-HEAT TRANSFER USING GOLD MACRO ROD AND ULTRASOUND: A POTENTIAL ALTERNATIVE TO KILL CANCER CELLSC. Austerlitz, I. Gkigkitzis, D. Campos, I. HaranasWe have previously proposed a method of treating solid tumors with a combination of gold macro-rods irradiated with ultrasound. Macro particle sized rods offer a greater circumferential treatment area over nanoparticle options. Experimental studies were conducted to investigate the heat enhancement and the bio-heat transfer to breast chicken using gold macro rod and ultrasound. An ultrasound, other than a focused … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 26 May 2014 · 7,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFICACY OF BIO-FOLIAR SPRAY ON GROWTH AND BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS OF DIFFERENT MULBERRY VARIETIESDhiraj Kumar, R. Venkatesh KumarThe study was undertaken to improve the growth and biochemical contents in an instant available form through foliar combination of spirulina, soybean and vermiwash. 15, 30 and 45 µg mL-1 concentrations of bio-foliar were sprayed on five different mulberry varieties namely S-1, S-146, S-1635, BR-2 and AR-14 to know their performance on growth parameters and biochemical constituents. Results of the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2014 · 7,393 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Development in Biological Process for Wastewater Treatment to Produce Renewable FuelKadhum M. Shabeeb, Khalid A. Sukkar, Rana A. Azeez et al.Problem statement: Hydrogen is a clean energy source. Bio-conversion of biomass to generate hydrogen has been achieved using anaerobic fermentation of some well-defined materials, in wastewater. No data available on hydrogen yielded from wastewater using inoculum extracted from Iraqi municipal wastewater treatment plant. Approach: This study investigated the effects of substrate concentration, initial pH and process temperature on biohydrogen production … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
