Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProcess Physics: Emergent Unified Dynamical 3-Space, Quantum and Gravity: A ReviewReginald Thomas CahillExperiments have repeatedly revealed the existence of a dynamical structured fractal 3-space, with a speed relative to the Earth of some 500 km sec-1 from a southerly direction. Experiments have ranged from optical light speed anisotropy interferometers to zener diode quantum detectors. This dynamical space has been missing from theories from the beginning of physics. This dynamical space generates a … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 4 Aug 2015 · 8,515 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHEAVY METAL ANALYSIS IN RED OAK (QUERCUS RUBRA) POPULATIONS FROM A MINING REGION IN NORTHERN ONTARIO (CANADA): EFFECT OF SOIL LIMING AND ANALYSIS OF GENETIC VARIATIONAnh Tran, K. K. Nkongolo, M. Mehes-Smith et al.Understanding the dynamic of metals in soil and plants and population diversity in Northern Ontario is essential in determining progress toward ecosystem sustainability in reclaimed sites. The objectives of the present study were to assess the levels of metal content in soils and their accumulation in red oak plants from limed and unlimed sites. Genetic variation in red oak populations … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 25 Jun 2014 · 7,732 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMobility of Heavy Metals in Plants and Soil: A Case Study From A Mining Region in CanadaM. Mehes-Smith, K. K. Nkongolo, R. Narendrula, E. CholewaUnderstanding the dynamic of metals in soil and plantsis essential for ecosystem management and risks assessment of environmental pollution and sustainability.The main objective of the present study is to determine the mobility of Ni, Cu, Fe, Mg and Zn in soil and their translocation in D. cespitosa plants in a mining region in Northern Ontario.The total amount of Cu, Ni, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 15 Jan 2014 · 8,677 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrying Poultry Manure for Pollution Potential Reduction and Production of Organic FertilizerA. E. Ghaly, M. AlhattabDisposal and storage of raw poultry manure has become an environmental problem because of the associated air, water and soil pollution. Poultry manure begins to decompose immediately after excretion giving off ammonia which, in high concentrations, can have adverse effects on the health and productivity of birds as well as the health of the farm workers. Application to land is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Mar 2013 · 9,724 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnaerobic Transformation of Biodegradable Waste; Simultaneous Production of Energy and FertilizerAmirhossein Malakahmad, Syazana Nasrudin, Noor Ezlin Ahmad Basri, Shahrom Md ZainAlmost 40% of the total waste produced in developing countries is made of biodegradable waste. Typically the waste including the biodegradable portion is transported to the so-called landfills without any segregation process, treatment and utilization in advance. Although mitigation practices such as source reduction, reuse and recycle are essential and required to be practiced in any integrated waste management plan, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 10 Mar 2013 · 7,376 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation of Environmental Management Systems in the Extraction of Construction Aggregates from Gravel Pit LakesSerena Botta, Claudio Comoglio, Alberto Quaglino, Andrea TorchiaProblem statement: Mining operations are strategic and essential industrial activities which rely on the use of non renewable natural resources, causing several relevant interactions with the environment. Approach: The need to perform in compliance with even more stringent environmental legislation and to satisfy different stakeholders demands and pressures, is progressively leading the mining sector towards the implementation of Environmental Management … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,320 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Behavior of A High Anchored Reinforced Earth WallFaisal Hj Ali, Bujang B.K. Huat, Lee Chee HaiSince the invention of Reinforced Earth by the French architect Hendri Vidal in 1966, numerous reinforced soil walls have been designed and constructed all over the world. In this study the focus was on a particular type of reinforced wall called Nehemiah wall which differed from the Vidal type in the sense that instead of steel strips, the reinforcing elements … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Quality of Homeland Security and Health Care Systems: The Texas Rangers InitiativeEldo E. Frezza, Maurizio Chiriva-InternatiHealthcare facilities are an essential component of an emergency response system in case of nuclear, biological or chemical attack, but at the present time, are poorly prepared for an incident. Key elements of the healthcare facility response plan include prompt recognition of the incident, staff and facility protection, patient decontamination and triage, medical therapy, and coordination with external emergency response … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,216 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTrace Elements Distribution in the Brain of Stressed RatsZerrouk Kamal, Mohamed Najimi, Mohammed Chigr et al.Because of their ability to modulate the Gamma Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) a receptor complex, the principal aim of the current work is to assess two essential heavy metals: Iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) by atomic absorption in different brain areas of stressed rats. To do so, we investigated the effect of acute immobilization stress (single 1-hour session) on the distribution … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 14 Sep 2012 · 7,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordFundamental Elements to Produce Sesame Yoghurt from Sesame MilkIbrahim Afaneh, Khaled Abu-Alruz, Jihad M. Quasem et al.Problem statement: In previous work sesame milk was developed. The developed milk had slightly acceptable flavor and limited shelf life. Fermentation of sesame milk is one way to overcome these problems. Approach: Sesame yoghurt experiments were carried out using pasteurized sesame milk (75°C for 5 min) with 14% initial sesame seed concentration and 2.7% glucose with different dairy products: lactose, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 23 Sep 2011 · 8,712 accessesView PDFCite
