Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Study of Parameters Influencing the Purity of Potassium Sulfate Fertilizer Produced from Jordanian Raw MaterialsMousa GougazehThe general objective of the present investigation was to make a contribution towards improving the purity of the produced potassium sulfate from (KCl, Arab Potash Company-Dead Sea) and (H2SO4, Jordanian Phosphate Company). The process parameters influencing the contamination of the poisoning chlorine within the product were experimentally investigated. The experiments were performed in a small-scale batch reactor equipped with a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,046 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValidation of Some Bridge Pier Scour Formulae Using Field and Laboratory DataThamer A. Mohamed, Megat J.M.M. Noor, Abdul H. Ghazali, Bujang B.K. HuatEstimation of maximum local scour depth at the bride pier site is necessary for the safety and economy of the designed bridge. Numerous formulae are available and almost all of these formulae were developed based on laboratory data. Validation of these formulae is necessary in order to ascertain which of the formulae will give a reasonable estimate of the local … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,829 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiological Activity of Methyl tert-butyl Ether in Relation to Soil Microorganisms has a Negative Environmental ImpactGholam H.S. BonjarFuel oxygenates are added to gasoline to enhance combustion efficiency of automobiles and reduce air pollution. Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is the most commonly used oxygenate because of its low cost, high-octane level and ease of blending with gasoline. However, due to its water solubility, high mobility and low biodegradability it leaches in soil subsurface at the speed of groundwater. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Chinese Traditional Processing Method on Components in Semen Sinapis AlbaeLifang Liu, Hui Zhou, Suqin Sun et al.Techniques of infrared (IR) spectrophotometry, High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and HPLC-mass spectrometry are employed in this study to reveal the changes of the components in Semen sinapis Albae during the Chinese traditional processing. While the degradation of proteins and polysaccarides can be observed, sinapine in this drug can be known to decompose immediately after 15 mins during processing. A … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,815 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of the Correcting Gains of Fractional Order Hold Devices for Inter-sample Output ReconstructionM. D.L. Sen, A. BilbaoThe design of Fractional Order Holds (FROH) of correcting gains β ∈ [-1, 1] (potentially and possibly including zero-order holds, ZOH with β = 0, and firelation holds, FROH relating) is discussed related to achieving output deviations being close with respect to its sampled values. A squared error time- integral between the current output and its sampled values is minimized … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExogenous Re-infection by Multiple Exposures to Mycobacterium tuberculosis Contributes to Subsequent Development of Active TuberculosisDiane J. Ordway, Miguel Viveiros, Fernando A. Ventura et al.The majority of tuberculosis (TB) exists in the world’s poorest countries, where costly biosafety level three facilities for containment of infectious TB patients and diagnostic facilities are not affordable. Health care workers (HCWs), in countries with high burdens of tuberculosis (TB) are at risk of nosocomially acquired TB, as there are increased numbers of cases of TB on open hospital … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,971 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhotovoltaic Technology of Electricity Generation for Desert CampingShafiqur Rehman, Ali A. Shash, Omar S. Baghabra Al-AmoudiThis study presents a case study on the utilization of global solar radiation data on horizontal surface to perform economical feasibility of using Photovoltaic (PV) panels with battery backup to meet a small load for a camping site in Saudi Arabia. The analysis considers three scenarios with daily average energy demands of: (i) full load, (ii) 75% load and (iii) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,929 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrganizations and Activities of a New Leading Farmer Extension Model in TurkeyGürel AydinWith this study, the organization and the activities of four leading farmer association established in Thrace Region of Turkey in 1986, in the center of Tekirdag and in Muratli, Corlu and Malkara districts of Tekirdag, were discussed as the result of the common studies between Turkish Agricultural Chamber Union (TZOB) and German agriculture unit (Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft, DLG), German Agricultural Technical … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Transcript Labeling Techniques and Development of a Membrane-based Parallel Gene Expression AssayMark A. Fisher, Bonnie B. Plikaytis, Thomas M. ShinnickAn inexpensive alternative to micro arrays was developed to examine the expression of small sets of genes in parallel and used to compare direct and indirect transcript labeling methods. Psoralen-biotin direct labeling was ~10-fold less sensitive than reverse transcriptase-biotin-dUTP labeling, but the enzymatic method generated higher levels of background noise in miniarray hybridizations. The reproducibility of hybridization intensities was the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,875 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Adaptive Modulation Scaling Scheme for Quality of Services Ensurance in Wireless Sensor NetwoksYong Yuan, Zongkai Yang, Jianhua HeEnergy consumption has been a key concern of data gathering in wireless sensor networks. Previous research works show that modulation scaling is an efficient technique to reduce energy consumption. However, such technique will also impact on both packet delivery latency and packet loss, therefore, may result in adverse effects on the qualities of applications. In this study, the problem of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,786 accessesView PDFCite
