Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesPhysical Properties of Wheat Straw Varieties Cultivated Under Different Climatic and Soil Conditions in Three ContinentsYaning Zhang, A. E. Ghaly, Bingxi LiOver 500 million tonnes of wheat straw are produced annually worldwide, the majority of which are burnt in the field causing significant environmental and health problems as well as serious traffic accidents in addition to loss of a valuable resource. Wheat straw is abundantly available and renewable and can be used as an energy source in gasification and combustion systems. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 26 Jun 2012 · 21,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesKinetics of Thin Layer Drying of Poultry ManureA. E. Ghaly, K. N. MacDonaldThe poultry industry is one of the largest and fastest growing sectors of livestock production in the world. The estimated 2010 world flock was over 18 billion birds with a yearly manure output of 22 million tonnes. Storage and disposal of raw poultry manure has become an environmental problem because of the associated air, water and soil pollution. Environmental and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 9,021 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesNutrient Composition of Dandelions and its Potential as Human FoodAbdel E. Ghaly, Deepika Dave, Nesreen MahmoudTwo thirds of the world’s populations are suffering from protein malnutrition and about 36 million people die every year due to hunger. Expansion of present agriculture practices into marginal land is not expected to solve the problem of increasing the food supply. New methods of feeding the ever increasing world population must be developed. The aim of the study was … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 10,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesPhysical Properties of Corn ResiduesYaning Zhang, A. E. Ghaly, Bingxi LiCorn residues (cobs, leaves and stalks) are abundantly available renewable materials that can be used as an energy source in gasification and combustion systems. Proper understanding of the physical properties of these materials is necessary for their use in thermochemical conversion processes. The physical properties (moisture content, particle size, bulk density and porosity) of corn cobs, leaves and stalks were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 19,333 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEffect of Diurnally Cyclic Temperature on the Performance of a Continuous Mix Anaerobic DigesterAbdel E. Ghaly, Mariam T. Al HattabProblem statement: Concentrated livestock production is a major contributor to environmental problems through the production of large quantity of husks on relatively small land area. Anaerobic digestion represents a valuable means of cover by these husks into methane while reducing manure pollution problems. Methodology: An experimental apparatus, including data acquisition and control system, was developed and used to investigate the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 19 Jan 2012 · 9,230 accessesView PDFCite

Al HattabApproach: The amount of energy related costs as a portion of the total farm operating cost can be as high as 29% and the continuing increase of the real cost of energy related farm input has been one of the major factors impacting the cost of agricultural production. However, agricultural has the potential of replacing some of the purchased energy … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 5 Jan 2012 · 9,324 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSequential Remediation Processes for Effective Removal of Oil from Contaminated SoilsDeepika Dave, Reema Alharathi, Abdel GhalyProblem statement: Over 2.2 billions of oil and oil products were transported every year and often these activities can result in air, water and soil contamination. Expousure to petroleum products can cause health problems to humn and animals and affect marine animals and wildlife habitats. Approach: The objective of this study was to developed a technology for the remediation of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 18 Nov 2011 · 8,185 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRemediation Technologies for Marine Oil Spills: A Critical Review and Comparative AnalysisD. Dave, A.E. GhalyProblem statement: Anthropogenic activities pollute the oceans with oil through land run off, vessels accidents, periodic tanker discharges and bilge discharges. Oil spills are environmental disasters that impact human, plants and wild life including birds, fish and mammals. Approach: In this study, the International Guidelines for Preventing Oils Spills and Response to Disasters were reviewed and the characteristics of oil … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 2 Nov 2011 · 25,617 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMeat Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: A Critical ReviewD. Dave, Abdel E. GhalyProblem statement: Extremely perishable meat provides favorable growth condition for various microorganisms. Meat is also very much susceptible to spoilage due to chemical and enzymatic activities. The breakdown of fat, protein and carbohydrates of meat results in the development of off-odors, off-flavor and slim formation which make the meat objectionable for human consumption. It is, therefore, necessary to control meat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2011 · 54,854 accessesView PDFCite
