EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects. Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting of Banana Production in BangladeshMd. Moyazzem Hossain, Faruq Abdulla, Ajit Kumar MajumderIn Bangladesh, banana is a very popular fruit and cultivated almost everywhere round the year. Rank of Bangladesh is 14 among the top 20 banana producing countries in the world. It is a commercial fruit, but in Bangladesh it is grown in limited area commercially. The demand of banana is increasing day by day in Bangladesh. Thus, this paper attempts … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 16 Jun 2016 · 9,651 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Prototype of a Small-Scale Solar Power Plant: dynamic Simulation and Thermoeconomic AnalysisAnnamaria Buonomano, Francesco Calise, Maria VicidominiThe paper presents an innovative prototype of a solar power plant, purposely designed for small-scale applications such as residential and/or small commercial buildings. The system consists of 10 kWe Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) plant and innovative solar thermal collectors. In particular, 235 m2 of flat-plate evacuated solar collectors are designed to heat diathermic oil up to 180°C. A variable volume … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 8 Feb 2016 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Bioethanol Wastes as an Alternative Phosphorus Source for Snap Bean and Radish ProductionXiaolin Liao, Ben Hogue, Shouliang Zhu et al.Biorefinery waste has potential to provide alternative sources of phosphorus (P) for plant industry if biomass has been pretreated by phosphoric acids during its production process. In this study, we investigated the potential of the fermentation waste from a bioethanol process as a P fertilizer. Three treatments were set up for growing crops of snap bean (var., Bronco) and radish … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 4 Feb 2016 · 8,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Salinity, pH, Light Intensity on Growth and Lipid Production of Microalgae for Bioenergy ApplicationMonika Prakash Rai, Trishnamoni Gautom, Nikunj SharmaThe crisis of energy producing molecules (fuels) is expected to increase in future, which is currently produced from crude mineral oil. Biodiesel is most reliable, non-toxic, biocompatible liquid fuel that can replace the existing unsustainable sources of energy. Among all the known sources, microalgae display high potential for the production of biodiesel owing to their numerous benefits like higher biomass … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2015 · 16,796 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProfitability Analysis of Small-Scale Beekeeping Firms by Using Life Cycle Costing (LCC) MethodologyAlfio Strano, Teodora Stillitano, Anna Irene De Luca et al.Increasingly, beekeeping sector attracts attention due to its potentialities linked to several aspects: Environmental benefits, commercial value and of promotion of rural development. Indeed, among the small-scale agro-food chains, beekeeping plays a significant role, especially in rural context, where the diversification of farms activities can be provide a relevant integration of income. However, frequently, apicultural activities are characterized by several … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2015 · 8,374 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY OF EARLY POTATO PRODUCTION IN THE MEDITERRANEAN AREAFilippo Sgroi, Anna Maria Di Trapani, Riccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaThe interactions between a given commercial enterprise, its territory and development, have become a key issue in recent years. Theories of economic development tell us that a territory may undergo development provided viable, economically sustainable commercial activities exist. Based on the latter postulate, the present paper analyzes the economic sustainability of farming enterprises growing early potatoes in a Mediterranean setting. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 12 Aug 2014 · 7,552 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOMBINATION OF CONVENTIONAL AND IN-SILICO APPROACH FOR IDENTIFYING AN INDUSTRIALLY IMPORTANT ISOLATE OF AEROMONASThungri Ghoshal, Sourav Ghosh, Amrita Saha et al.Ammonia is required for various commercial applications while its production by standard process is immensely energy intense. Dairy industry on the other hand produces huge volume of effluent needing treatment before discharge. This study aims at developing an eco-friendly microbial approach for conversion of dairy industry effluent into ammonia under atmospheric pressure and 37°C temperature at laboratory scale. Thus the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 26 Feb 2014 · 7,926 accessesView PDFCite
