Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPreparation-Properties Relation of Mn-Cu Hopcalite CatalystArdita Mele, Ilo Mele, Altin MeleProblem statement: The Mn-Cu hopcalite catalyst was used for the conversion of CO to CO2 at low temperatures. It was the catalyst of choice in the gas masks for respiratory protection in mines, aircrafts, military, spatial laboratories. Approach: The efficiency of hopcalite catalyst depends on its surface parameters. Its surface characteristics can be influenced from the chosen way of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 26 Dec 2011 · 7,888 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Technology for Agriculture at Extreme Altitudes: Design and Evaluation of a Sprinkler Irrigation System in a Peruvian High Andean CommunityJuan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira, Freddy A. Manayay, Daniel Olivier Carranza Lizana et al.In high-altitude agroecosystems, erratic rainfall patterns and steep topography severely constrain crop productivity by exposing plants to soil water deficits during critical phenological stages. This study aimed to enhance the productivity of eleven staple and horticultural crops corn (Zea mays), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), cucumber (Cucumis sativus), eggplant (Solanum melongena), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), carrot (Daucus carota), barley (Hordeum vulgare), celery (Apium … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 2 Oct 2026 · 645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Surface Morphology and Effectiveness of Common Nasopharyngeal Masks: A Case of Kathmandu, NepalPrasidha Raj Neupane, Iswor Bajracharya, Sunil Babu KhatryFacemasks are widely used worldwide to prevent inhaling airborneparticles and viruses, especially after the outbreak of COVID-19. To assess theeffectiveness of various facemasks against PM10 and PM2.5,experiments with a mannequin head were conducted at 10 and 55 LPM airflowrates. A total of 38 masks, including 26 CMs, 7 SMs, and 5 N95 masks, weretested against PM10 and PM2.5 at 55 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 7 Dec 2023 · 5,821 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Hydraulic Conductivity and Soil Water Retention of Inland Peat on Various Land Covers (Case Study: Natural Peat and Burnt Peat)Fengky Florante Adji et al.This research aims to examine differences in the rate of saturated soil hydraulic conductivity (permeability) and unsaturated soil hydraulic conductivity (infiltration) and soil water retention with various pressures in peatland with different land covers. The study was conducted from June to October 2021. The research was conducted at the LAHG-Sebangau and at the KHDTK-Tumbang Nusa, central Kalimantan, Indonesia. Based on … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 3 · 19 May 2023 · 6,124 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Toolkit Approach for Carbon Capture and Storage in Offshore Depleted Gas FieldRaj Deo Tewari, Tan Chee Phuat, Mohd Faizal SedaralitFossil fuels are considered a dependable, cost-effective, and efficient energy source and their utilization has resulted in tremendous growth for humanity. However, it has its downside also. Experts are of the view that present energy systems are unsustainable due to their detrimental impacts on the environment. Oil and gas producers are charged that their infrastructure, utilization of materials and technologies … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 17 May 2023 · 6,196 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtended Fuzzy Decision Support Model for Cropland Recommendation of Food Cropping in IndonesiaLucky Christopher Chen, Nurcahyo Wibowo, Ditdit Nugeraha UtamaFood crops are the preferred crops to be cultivated on agricultural land in Indonesia, which has a wide area available for use as agricultural land. Each region’s agricultural lands in Indonesia have distinct features (e.g., water capacity, land porosity, land height, etc.). Rice, maize, red beans and green beans are significant food crops that are commonly cultivated in Indonesia. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 8 · 8 Sep 2021 · 6,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Cement Kiln Dust on the Soil Electrical ResistivityHamid Ranjkesh Adarmanabadi, Arezou Rasti, Mehrdad RazaviElectrical resistivity is a non-destructive, cost-effective and sensitive method to evaluate soil's physical and chemical properties. Electrical resistivity has been used widely in surface and subsurface exploration. The electrical resistivity is directly related to the subsurface geotechnical and geothermal properties like porosity, temperature, salinity and water content. Recently uses of waste material as an additive to improve the soil engineering … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 14 Jan 2021 · 7,272 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical Fractured Reservoir Characterization by using Geological and Petrophysical LogsZohreh Movahed, Farzaneh AghajariDue to structural complexities in some wells, higher than the expected thickness of the Asmari formation is found. Fracture intensity and deep-rooted fractures broadly increase the risk of unpredictable water production. The well-test analysis is not sufficient in describing fracture properties. Unfortunately, the core condition is poor in the fractured zones and cannot be used to provide reliable information. So, … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 3 Dec 2022 · 9,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysical and Mechanical Properties of Concrete using Recycled Clay Bricks as Coarse AggregateMohammad Yasir Abdul Hakim, Mohamed El-Zeadani, Siti Aminah OsmanRising construction waste due to demolition work, natural disasters, and development is becoming a prominent issue. To tackle this, Recycled Crushed Brick Masonry Aggregate (RCBMA) can be an ideal replacement for the limited Natural Coarse Aggregates (NCA) in the production of concrete, potentially assisting in managing construction waste and reducing the depletion of NCA. As such, this study focused on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 4 Apr 2022 · 7,586 accessesView PDFCite
