Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstablishment and Evaluation of the Vegetative Community in A Surface Flow Constructed Wetland Treating Industrial Park ContaminantsC.C. Galbrand, A.M. Snow, A.E. Ghaly, R. CôtéA surface flow constructed wetland, designed to curve in a kidney shape in order to increase the length to width ratio to 5:1 was used to treat runoff from an industrial park. A natural wetland system located approximately 200 m downstream of the constructed wetland was selected to act as the vegetative community model for the constructed wetland. The selected … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,574 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Administration of Alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH) on Some Hematological Values of Alloxan-induced Diabetic RatsKamal M.S. MansiThis study was designed to evaluate the role of alpha- melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) on heart rate and some hematological values in alloxan induced diabetic rats. 40 male white rats were divided into four experimental groups: control, diabetic, α-MSH-treated and α-MSH-treated diabetic. At the end of the experimental period (3weeks), animals in all four groups were fasted for 12 hrs … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,366 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Polyelectrolyte in Turbidity Removal from Surface WaterA. H. Mahvi, M. RazaviOne of the most important treatment processes in surface water treatment plants is coagulation. Surface waters such as rivers and lakes contain suspended particles and turbidity. With the aid of coagulants, and by flocculation process, followed by sedimentation and filtration, these impurities can be removed from raw waters these days, besides conventional chemicals such as Alum and Ferric chloride, polymers … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 8,237 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Watershed Structures in Controlling Runoff - Case Study of Sardasht Basin in IRANSeyedeh Zahra Hosseini-Teshnizi, Ghodratollah Davoudi, Seyedeh Laleh Razavi, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariIn order to investigate the performance of constructed structures in Sardasht watershed, Soil and Water Assessment Tools model for simulation of runoff and sediment during the studied period of 1996-2012 was carried out for two cases of existence and absence of flood control structures. From 2007 onwards by performing watershed operations in these sub-basins, the average runoff rate decreased about … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 26 Feb 2020 · 7,346 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordBed-Load Sediment Profile and Effect of River Bank Erosion on River Cross-SectionMohd Ekhwan Toriman, Frankie Marcus Ata, Mohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin, Mushrifah IdrisThe processes of lateral and riverbank erosion are among the elements of river morphology dynamic resulting from natural processes and human activities. This process has been studied in detail throughout the research for four months starting from 7 October 2009 to 26 January 2010. In this research, technique of erosion pins were applied at five plots selected along the Chini … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,337 accessesView PDF Cite
