Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Investigation of Cluster Bed-Form Formation Over Uniform SedimentMasoud Karbasi, Mohammad H. Omid, Javad FarhoudiProblem statement: Cluster microforms are a type of small scale bed-form found in the surface layer of some gravel bed rivers. These bed-forms are comprised of discrete, organized groupings of particles that sit above the average elevation of the surrounding bed. As part of the structural organization of the bed, clusters are believed to impact the local dynamics of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro Anti Plasmodial Activity of Enicostemma littoraleSanket Soni, Sarita GuptaProblem statement: Malaria is a prevalent disease in India. The problem of drug resistance is worsening. Hence, new effective and affordable antimalarial drugs are very much needed. The long-established use of quinine and the more recent introduction of artemisinin as highly effective anti malarials demonstrate that plant species are an important resource for the discovery of new anti malarial agents. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Moving Bed Biofilm Process for Biological Organics and Nutrients Removal from Municipal WastewaterM. Kermani, B. Bina, H. Movahedian et al.In this study, experiments have been conducted to evaluate the organics and nutrients removal from synthetic wastewater by a laboratory scale moving bed biofilm process. For nutrients removal, moving bed biofilm process has been applied in series with anaerobic, anoxic and aerobic units in four separate reactors. Moving bed biofilm reactors were operated continuously at different loading rates of nitrogen … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 9,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Parallel Logical Operations with Biomolecular ComputingMahnaz Kadkhoda, Ali A. PouyanBiomolecular computing is the computational method that uses the potential of DNA as a parallel computing device. DNA computing can be used to solve NP-complete problems. An appropriate application of DNA computation is large-scale evaluation of parallel computation models such as Boolean Circuits. In this study, we present a molecular-based algorithm for evaluation of Nand-based Boolean Circuits. The contribution of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison Between Biological Treatment and Chemical Precipitation for Nitrogen Removal from Old Landfill LeachateLong Tengrui, Anas F. Al-Harbawi, He Qiang, Zhai JunThe study reports the results of a laboratory scale investigation aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of mature municipal landfill leachate treatment by a biological stage (used SBBR as a biological treatment) and Chemical precipitation (Used MAP precipitation (magnesium ammonium phosphate)) to study the nitrogen removal capabilities for treatment of sanitary landfill leachate containing high ammonia concentration, and the comparison between … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Environmental and Health Impacts of High Land Application of Cheese WheyA. E. Ghaly, N.S. Mahmoud, D.G. Rushton, F. ArabA laboratory scale experiment was carried out to study the transformation and transport of nitrogenous compounds in soils receiving high application rates of cheese whey (twice the nitrogen requirement for crops). The experimental apparatus consists of 36 soil columns constructed of 20 cm inside diameter PVC pipes. Three types of soil (sandy loam, loam and sandy clay loam) and three … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacteristics of Nitrogen Removal from Old Landfill Leachate by Sequencing Batch Biofilm ReactorLong Tengrui, Anas F. Al-Harbawi, Lin Ming Bo et al.Municipal landfill leachate is a high strength wastewater characterized by high concentrations of organics and ammonia and potentially containing toxic materials. The paper reports the results of a laboratory scale investigation aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of mature municipal landfill leachate treatment by a biological stage (used SBBR as a biological treatment) to study the nitrogen removal capabilities for treatment … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 8,039 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Supplementary Bioavailable Carbon on the Thermal and Biological Kinetic Parameters of the Composting Process of Tomato Plant TrimmingsA.E. Ghaly, F. AlkoaikThree laboratory-scale bioreactors were used to investigate the influence of bioavailable carbon addition on the composting process of tomato remains. Sugar, cheese whey and used cooking oil were used as bioavailable carbon sources. The amounts of materials added to the compost mixture had equal energy contents. The initial moisture contents and C: N ratios of the compost mixtures were maintained … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of the Ozonation Pre-treatment for Biodegradation of Aqueous Solutions of Methyltert-Butyl EtherM. Sadeghi, A. Mesdaghinia, A. Badkoubi et al.The effectiveness of ozone treatment for improving the biodegradability of recalcitrant pollutants has been proved by investigating the ozonation reaction of Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) a bioresistant gasoline oxygenate. Laboratory scale experiments have been carried out, at room temperature, by bubbling, for 120 min, ozonated air (3.4 ppm min-1 ) into 3 liter of an alkaline (pH=11.5) aqueous solution (100 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,463 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrace Metals Co-Toxicity in Hard Body Structures of Liza klunzingeri (Mugilidae: Perciformes) Mullet FishA.H. Bu-Olayan, B.V. Thomas, S.M.H. Al-HusainiThe possibility of inorganic pollutants causing stress to the marine ecosystem instigated us to conduct eco-toxicological tests on the predominant trace metals (Cu, Zn, Pb and V) in commercial important fish. Among the four metals, V had the lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC: LC15) at 6.3 µg L-1. Toxicity tests (96 h) using Multi factor Probit analysis revealed V (6.3 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,514 accessesView PDFCite
