Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Microbial Inoculants on Feeding Value of Spent Lentinula edodes SubstrateYunfu Gu, Min Yi, Jianzhou Chen, Xiaoping ZhangSawdust-based Spent Lentinula Edodes Substrate (SLES) is an important agricultural waste resource for its’ huge production amount, on the other hand, it is hard to recycling because of the low digestibility. For the purpose of recycling the SLES, a study was conducted to improve the feeding values of SLES via microbial inoculation. The SLES was ensiled with 0.5% (v/w) Lactic … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Applied Study on the Debris Recycling in TunnellingPierpaolo Oreste, Marta CastellanoProblem statement: A simple calculation has shown what the impact of muck created during the construction of a hypothetical 50 km long and 100 m2 cross section tunnel could be on the environment: around 8 million cubic meters would have to be discharged as waste material. One solution to such a problem could be to recycle (almost a part) the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 27 Mar 2012 · 7,518 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Innovative Farm Scale Biogas/Composting Facility for a Sustainable Medium Size Dairy FarmA.E. Ghaly, M. 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 · 9,320 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Earthquake Demolition Debris on the Quality of GroundwaterM. S. Benmenni, K. BenrachediProblem statement: Debris from construction or demolition/deconstruction processes have no significant impact on the environment as they are res-usable and inert. This has been also long admitted for solid waste generated by the demolition of damaged cities following violent earthquakes. Approach: This study is a contribution to the assessment of actual impact on the quality of groundwater of buried demolition … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Development through Waste Heat RecoveryP. S. Bundela, Vivek ChawlaProblem statement: Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) steam Technology is a proven Technology pioneered by Japanese for cement plant and it is economically viable. Electrical Power can be generated by adopting the latest technology in this field.
