Hence, one of the main priorities of energy policy is to diversification of energy sources, as well as finding a safe, cheap and nonpolluting energy source (devoid of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2019 · 8,668 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Coagulation/Flocculation Processes for Removal of Phenolic Compounds from Olive Mill Wastewater: A Comprehensive ReviewMounia Achak, Fatima Elayadi, Wafaa BoumyaOlive oil extraction processes generate three phases: Olive oil, solid residue (pomace) and aqueous liquor Olive Mill Wastewater (OMW). OMW causes serious environmental deteriorations such as coloring of natural waters, alteration of soil quality, phytotoxicity and odor nuisance. The direct discharge of this effluent into the soil bring various negative effects on the environment, due to its high load of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 30 Mar 2019 · 10,494 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Bioorganic Preparations and Mineral Fertilizers to the Productivity and Quality of Beetroot in the Subsurface Irrigation in the South-East of KazakhstanTemirzhan Yerkassovich Aitbayev, Bekzat Abiyevich Turegeldiyev, Laura Abdireevna Buribayeva et al.Vegetables are valuable sources of vitamins, organic acids and mineral salts. In Kazakhstan, the consumption rate of vegetables per person is 120 kg per year, where 8 kg is beetroot. Beetroot cultivated area is 7,000 hectares. The yield is 150,000 tons, and the demand is 144,000 tons.

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Scale Modeling to Estimate Phosphorus and Sediment Load Reductions Using a Newly Developed Graphical User Interface for Soil and Water Assessment ToolAaron R. Mittelstet, Erin R. Daly, Daniel E. Storm et al.Streams throughout the North Canadian River watershed in northwest Oklahoma, USA have elevated levels of nutrients and sediment. Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was used to identify areas that likely contributed disproportionate amounts of Phosphorus (P) and sediment to Lake Overholser, the receiving reservoir at the watershed outlet. These sites were then targeted by the Oklahoma Conservation Commission (OCC) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 28 Dec 2012 · 6,470 accessesView PDFCite
