Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Hydroponic System for Purification of Anaerobically Treated Dairy Manure and Production of Wheat as a Nutritional Forage CropA. E. Ghaly, H.A. Farag, M. VermaA hydroponic system was developed and used for purification of an anaerobically treated dairy manure and production of forage crops. The effect of light duration, seeding rate and wastewater application rate on the crop yield and pollution potential reduction were studied. The results indicated that a wheat forage crop can be produced in 21 days from germination to harvest in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,075 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPhytoremediation of Anaerobic Digester Effluent for Water Purification and Production of Animal FeedA. E. Ghaly, H.A. FaragThe application of phytoremediation for purification of an anaerobically treated dairy manure and production of forage crops was investigated. Four crops (two cereals and two grasses) were examined for their ability to grow hydroponically and to remove pollutants (nutrients) from dairy wastewater. The preliminary experiments showed that timothygrass and orchardgrass did not perform well as aquatic plants. Only 24 and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,201 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of Supplementary Bioavailable Carbon on the Thermal and Biological Kinetic Parameters of the Composting Process of Tomato Plant TrimmingsA.E. Ghaly, F. AlkoaikThree laboratory-scale bioreactors were used to investigate the influence of bioavailable carbon addition on the composting process of tomato remains. Sugar, cheese whey and used cooking oil were used as bioavailable carbon sources. The amounts of materials added to the compost mixture had equal energy contents. The initial moisture contents and C: N ratios of the compost mixtures were maintained … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsApplication of Gamma irradiation in treatment of Waste Activated Sludge to Obtain Class a BiosolidsMohammed I. AL-Ghonaiem, Abdelnasser Salah Shebl Ibrahim, Ali Abdullah Al-SalamahProblem statement: The main objective of the current study was investigation of the possible application of Gamma irradiation for treatment of the activated sludge generated wastewater treatment stations, to achieve the standard requirements in term of pathogens content. Approach: Activated sludge samples were collected from Riyadh wastewater plant and analyzed quantitatively for the presence of important bacterial parameters including fecal … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,006 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNanowire Mediated Effect of Interspecies Electron Transfer in Organic Solid Waste Co-FermentationJingkang Chen, Daicheng Liu et al.Low efficiency of Interspecific Electron Transfer (IET) among microorganisms constrains organic matter degradation and biogas production in organic solid waste co‑fermentation. This work investigates the underlying bottleneck and evaluates the nanowire‑mediated enhancement of IET. Surface plasmon resonance‑enhanced electrochemical impedance spectroscopy coupled with metagenomic and metatranscriptomic sequencing was applied to regulate endogenous nanowire formation in anaerobic reactors. Surface Plasmon Resonance-Enhanced Electrochemical … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 9 Oct 2026 · 591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial-Dynamics of Trace Metals Accumulation and Physicochemical Characteristics in Ikpukulu-Ama Creeks, Rivers State, NigeriaDavies Ibienebo Chris, Khang Wen Goh, Davies Imachrist Ibienebo et al.The study examines the spatial-dynamics variability of water parameters and trace metal concentrations between January and June 2023 at the Ikpukulu-Ama sites of the Bonny River, Nigeria. Key parameters analyzed include temperature, salinity, pH, transparency, dissolved oxygen, and trace metals (Ni, Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn) across three sites. The highest temperature, 32.56°C, was recorded at Site 2, indicating potential thermal … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 29 Jul 2026 · 494 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWastewater Treatment Using Organic By-Products from Agroindustry: A Case Study in the District of Valera, Amazonas Region, Northern PeruEli Morales-Rojas, Sayda Karina García Caro et al.This research evaluates the use of two types of coagulants based on organic by-products (orange and passion fruit) in wastewater (RA) treatment. The system was composed of glass tanks installed in parallel. The coagulants were elaborated and applied in aqueous solution and in powder form, and 7 physicochemical and microbiological parameters were also analyzed. Data analysis was performed using a … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 2 Jul 2026 · 1,172 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Diversity as a Biological Control Mechanism for Fruit Tree Diseases: A Comparative ApproachZhichao TangThe traditional methods of fruit tree pest control have long relied on chemical pesticides. This not only leads to increased resistance of pests and diseases but also adversely affects the ecological environment and fruit safety. Although biological control has gradually received attention, the current research on how to systematically use microbial diversity to achieve efficient control and prevention is still … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2026 · 1,603 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Context-Aware Temporal Convolutional Network for Water Replacement Prediction in Catfish Biofloc Ponds With Imbalanced Event HandlingYaddarabullah, Inanpi Hidayati Sumiasih, Mutiara Dewi PuspitawatiWater replacement is a biologically critical yet under-automated decision in biofloc-based aquaculture systems. Mistimed actions can destabilize microbial ecosystems, elevate fish mortality, and compromise sustainability through excessive water usage. Traditional rule-based heuristics often fail to account for the nonlinear and multiscale dynamics of pond environments. To address this, we propose a Context-Aware Temporal Convolutional Network (CA-TCN), a rare-event classification framework … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 5 Mar 2026 · 1,664 accessesView PDFCite
