Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMunicipal Solid Waste Generation and its Management, a Growing Threat to Fragile Ecosystem in Kashmir HimalayaRouf Ahmad Bhat, Moonisa Aslam Dervash, Mohammad Aneesul Mehmood, Khalid Rehman HakeemThe Kashmir valley is facing tremendous pressure associated with problems of growing waste generation. Thus, the aim of the present research was to generate baseline data for adequate waste management and associated problems. For the collection of samples, 20 houses were randomly selected in the main town from each district and segregated into compostable, recyclable, combustible and inert categories. All … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 13 Jan 2018 · 9,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Ethanol and Methyl Groups on the Degradation of Xylenes in SoilIrajá Nascimento, Ricardo Baldasso, Kira ManfrediniThe main objective of the present study was to assess the influence of ethanol on the evaporation profile of xylenes (ortho + meta and para isomers) in active (with microorganisms) and inert (without microorganisms) soils. The vapors from four sealed flasks containing inert soil + neat xylenes, active soil + neat xylenes, inert soil + xylenes + ethanol and active … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 25 Jul 2015 · 6,622 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Process of Porous Tantalum Implants Osseous Integration a ReviewChristos G. Paganias, George A. Tsakotos, Stephanos D. Koutsostathis, George A. MacherasPorous tantalum is a biomaterial that was recently introduced in orthopaedics in order to overcome problems of the past related to implant loosening. Its use has led to very good results, especially in difficult cases where severe bone defect is present, as it is found to have osteoconductive and possibly, osteoinductive properties. So, it is of great interest to shed … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 22 Apr 2015 · 7,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINCREASING ADSORPTION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FROM PALM OIL SHELL FOR ADSORB H2S FROM BIOGAS PRODUCTION BY IMPREGNATIONWasan Phooratsamee, Kanokorn Hussaro, Sombat Teekasap, Jongjit HirunlabhBiogas is the combustible gas produced through a biological process, known as anaerobic digestion which is the process operated at low-temperature and without air. Biogas consists of 55-80% CH4, 20-45% CO2 with trace amount of H2S and other impurities. Common H2S removal technologies from biogas fall into one of adsorption on a solid such as iron oxide based materials, activated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 16 Aug 2014 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmpirical Analysis of Employees with Tertiary Education Occupational ImbalancesAndrei B. Ankudinov, Oleg V. LebedevHigh percentage of graduates (among the highest in the world) with university degrees combined with unacceptably low level of utilization of acquired qualifications and generally low quality of education in the majority of Russian universities result in huge structural imbalances. The article presents quantitative estimates of disproportions between the educational levels of employees with higher education and their professional occupation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 10 Oct 2013 · 6,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnumeration of Microbes and Gas Production During Denitrification and Nitrogen Fixation Processes in SoilA. E. Ghaly, K. N. MacDonaldDry plant material contains 2-4% nitrogen, making it an essential nutrient for all plants. The nitrogen cycle regulates the pathways which transform nitrogen from a relatively inert dinitrogen gas to forms of organic nitrogen such as proteins and nucleic acids. Denitrification and nitrogen fixation are the two most important processes that remove and add nitrogen to the soil, respectively. The … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2012 · 8,618 accessesView PDFCite
