Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnergy Option for Small Scale Cashew Nut Processing in IndiaAtul Mohod, Sudhir Jain, A.G. PowarProblem statement: Cashew (Anacardium Occidentale L.) is one of the important tropical crops. India processed about 11,80,000 metric tons of raw cashew nut seeds through 3650 cashew processing industries scattered in many states of country. The cashew nut processing industries are typically located in the rural and backward areas. The most significant difficulty in processing cashew nuts is that the … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 16,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOptimization of Biochar Quality from Palm and Cacao Waste through Variation of Pyrolysis Temperature and Duration as a Soil Amendment MaterialIwan Saputra, Sugeng Prijono et al.Palm and cacao waste are high-quality raw materials for producing quality biochar that enhances soil fertility, provided that the biochar production process takes into account various aspects of pyrolysis. The pyrolysis conditions, such as temperature and duration, significantly impact the quality of the biochar produced as a soil amendment. The type of raw material, pyrolysis temperature, duration, and other conditions … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 27 Jul 2024 · 5,558 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordReprocess of Copper from Worn Printed Circuit BoardsSwarnambiga A.K., M. Vidya Kalaivani, Sarah Sathyawathi, T.S. Ramyaa LakshmiThe objective of the study is to reuse printed circuit boards which are mainly made of copper. Most top down and bottom up approaches for the synthesis of Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) needs pure copper (II) sulfate or any other copper salts as a raw material. For the expensive non-ecofriendly reasons, here we used wasted Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) as an … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2019 · 7,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSynthesis and Characterization of Bio-based Polyurethane PolymersJahangir Emrani, Ramazan Benrashid, Shahrzad Mohtarami et al.This paper describes the development of new biobased Polyurethanes (PU) starting from swine manure bio-resin and diisocyanates. The bio-resin is produced from swine manure via a hydrothermal process. For sustainability, today, many PUs in new specialized applications, are biobased. In this study, different commercial diisocyanates including MDI, Desmodur W, Desmodur H and Demodur I and swine manure, which is an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2018 · 8,361 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEucalyptus Gomphocephala: Morphological Characterization and Seed Germination under Influence of Contaminated SoilOuled Seghaier Wided, Abbes Chaabane, Hasnaoui BrahimTo study the impact of soil pollution on plant growth, our work focused on soil polluted by heavy metals. This soil was taken from the municipal landfill of Jendouba (North of Tunisia). We have undertaken to study the morphological behavior of a forest specie “Eucalyptus gomphocephala”. Two treatments are chosen (substrate containing 100% and 50% of soil taken from municipal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 12 Apr 2017 · 7,499 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordLong-Term Characterization of Landfill Leachate: Impacts of the Tropical Climate on its CompositionJorge Luiz da Paixão Filho, Miriam Gonçalves MiguelThe disposal of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) in sanitary landfills produces leachate, whose composition changes depending on the microbial community and the environmental conditions. However, these changes cannot be observed in sanitary landfill because of the superposition of cells, which makes it difficult to determinate the relationship among the phases of biodegradation of MSW, the composition of the leachate and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 14 Mar 2017 · 8,573 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordCharacterization, Concentrations and Emission Rates of Volatile Organic Compounds from Two Major Landfill Sites in KuwaitMohammad AlAhmad, Marwan Dimashki, Abdallah Nassour, Michael NellesProblem statement: The emission of pollutants from landfill sites in Kuwait is of major concern due to the associated adverse environmental and health impacts. There are 18 landfill sites in Kuwait which are contributing to the emission of atmospheric pollutants including; methane, carbon dioxide and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Approach: Determine the concentration and composition of VOCs in LFG emissions … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 17 Feb 2012 · 7,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordExtraction, Purification and Characterization of Fish Chymotrypsin: A ReviewLiang Zhou, Suzanne M. Budge, Abdel E. Ghaly et al.Problem statement: Solid fish waste is generated from the unwanted parts of fish including heads, tails, fins, frames, offal (guts, kidney and liver) and skin. It accounts for up to 80% of material from production of surimi, 66% from production of fillet and 27% from production of headed and gutted fish. Currently, fish wastes are disposed off in land-based waste … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 22 Sep 2011 · 10,585 accessesView PDFCite
