Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleYeast Immobilization on Peanut Hulls for Potential Application in Beer FermentationWaldir D. Estela-Escalante, Sergio Rosales-Mendoza, Mario Moscosa-SantillánThe potential of using peanut hulls as support material for immobilization of yeast cells during beer fermentation was evaluated. After treatment of peanut hulls with 0.5% (w/v) NaOH, FTIR analysis revealed an important change on its chemical composition. For instance, the proportion of lignin decreased and as a result the adsorption of yeast cells onto the support material during fermentation … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 22 Jul 2019 · 8,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLeaves Calorific Values of Selected Species in Burnt Tropical Peat Swamp Forest in Selangor, MalaysiaGerald Ulok, Ahmad Ainuddin Nuruddin, Rusea Go, Paridah Md TahirForest fire in Malaysia’s peat swamp forest is a major concern since it is contributing to the country’s haze episode. Forest fire in peat areas is difficult to be extinguished and may occur for days. Understanding fuel characteristics is the key to develop effective fuel management in peat swamp forest. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the common … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 6 Mar 2016 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Converting Tropical Peat Swamp Forest into Oil Palm Plantation on Water QualitySeca Gandaseca, Noraini Rosli, Mohd Hanafi Idris et al.Peat swamp forest is a unique forest and wetlands ecosystem that recognized as one of the most important reservoir of biodiversity and water resources protection. Rapid development particularly for development, agriculture and plantation in peat swamp forest (PSF) area had given negative impacts to its ecosystem included degradation of its water quality. This study was conducted to determine water quality … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 3 Sep 2015 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleASSESSMENT OF OIL PALM PLANTATION AND TROPICAL PEAT SWAMP FOREST WATER QUALITY BY MULTIVARIATE STATISTICAL ANALYSISSeca Gandaseca, Noraini Rosli, Mohammad Shawkat Hossain, Chandra Imam AriantoThis study reports the spatio-temporal changes in river and canal water quality of peat swamp forest and oil palm plantation sites of Sarawak, Malaysia. To investigate temporal changes, 192 water samples were collected at four stations of BatangIgan, an oil palm plantation site of Sarawak, during July-November in 2009 and April-July in 2010. Nine water quality parameters including Electrical Conductivity … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 3 Jul 2014 · 8,218 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePeak to Average Power Ratio Reduction of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing System with a Significant Low ComplexityMahamod Ismail, J. S. Mandeep, Montadar Abas Taher, M. T. IslamThe Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has been widely used in many applications in the last decade. It provides good benefits compared to the single carrier systems. However, it has a bad property represented by the high-output Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) which is considered as its major problem. There are many techniques to reduce the PAPR values such … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 20 Dec 2012 · 6,589 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePeak-to-Average Power Ratio Reduction Using Active Constellation Extension-Projection Onto Convex Sets Combined with Particle Swarm Optimization Added to Space Time Bloc Coding in Multiple Input Multiple Output-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing SystemAhmed Ouqour, Abdelhamid Louliej, Younes Jabrane et al.When generated Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) signal is transmitted through a number of antennas in order to achieve diversity or cap any gain (higher transmission rate) then it is known as Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)-OFDM. The full form of MIMO is multi input and multi output where signals are transmitted via multiple antennas instead of only one antenna … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 12 Dec 2012 · 6,989 accessesView PDFCite
