Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConversion of Carbon Dioxide: Opportunities and Fundamental ChallengesSajeda A. Al-Saydeh, Syed J. Zaidi, Muftah H. El-NaasThe rising atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide is one of the most urgent challenges facing societies nowadays. There is also great potential in energy carriers and other materials from CO2, with many challenges to overcome. The way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions should be using carbon free sources that do not generate carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. This article reviews … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 17 Jan 2018 · 7,637 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Study of Particle Emissions from a Modern 5 kW Pellet StoveIgor V. Dyakov, Benjamin Bergmans, Svend Bram et al.This work is dedicated to the determination of the particle emission from a commercially available bottom feed 5 kW pellet stove. Two-stage dilution was applied to provide the operational stability and conditioning of the sample. The analysis of particle emission was performed by means of the Electrical Low Pressure Impactor with 14 stages, able to separate particles from 0.006 to … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Oct 2016 · 7,004 accessesView PDFCite
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 abstractAnalysis of the Application of Turbulence Models in the Calculation of Supersonic Gas JetIlina Ekaterina Evgenevna, Ilina Tamara Evgenevna, Bulat Pavel ViktorovichThis article considers the adequacy of the usage of various two-parameter differential turbulence models for the calculation of supersonic non-calculative (overexpanded and underexpanded) gas jet flowing into the environment that have a pressure equal to atmospheric. A brief historical background on the development of methods for calculating turbulent supersonic jet, which contain developed shock wave structures, is given. For each … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 7,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTRANSPIRATION INFLUENCES CADMIUM UPTAKE BY BABY LEAF SPINACH (SPINACIA OLERACEA L.)Carlo Chehine, Paul Holford, Oula Ghannoum et al.Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal whose concentration in soils is rising. This study investigated the effect of transpiration on Cd uptake by plants using soil conditions akin to those experienced by field crops. Two experiments were performed using baby leaf spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) grown in soil containing Chloride (Cl) at a typical concentration of 70 mg kg-1. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2014 · 8,066 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProblems of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic RaysAnna V. UrysonCosmic rays are energetic particles coming to the Earth from space. They bombard the atmosphere producing cascades of particles that spread over a large area when they reach the ground. Cosmic ray energies vary in the wide band from about 108 eV up to few 1020 eV. It is established that most particles with energies of ~ (108-109) eV come … …Space Science International, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 6 Dec 2014 · 13,865 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOUPLED NITROGEN AND OXYGEN ISOTOPE STUDY OF NITRATE AT A RURAL UNLINED LANDFILL IN WESTERN VICTORIA, AUSTRALIAJohn W. Moreau, Andrew M. MinardUnderstanding of site-scale physical and chemical heterogeneities will inform remediation strategies for unlined rural landfills worldwide. The aim of this study was to characterize potential sources of nitrogen contamination to groundwater at an unlined landfill in rural western Victoria, Australia. Results revealed simultaneously high concentrations of both nitrate and ammonia within several wells, indicative of heterogeneous redox potentials within the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 30 Jun 2014 · 7,610 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRAPID DEGRADATION OF AZO DYES USING NANO-SCALE ZERO VALENT IRONNabila Rahman, Zainal Abedin, M. Ali HossainIn the present study, nano-scale Zero Valent Iron (NZVI) was synthesized in ethanol medium by the method of ferric iron reduction using sodium borohydride as a reducing agent under atmospheric conditions. The obtained iron nanoparticles are mainly in zero valent oxidation state and remain without significant oxidation for hours. A systematic characterization of NZVI was performed using XRD, SEM and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 8 Apr 2014 · 8,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCLIMATE CHANGE IMPACT ASSESSMENT ON WATERSHED HYDROLOGY: A COMPARISON OF THREE APPROACHESSomsubhra Chattopadhyay, Manoj K. JhaSeveral methods of impact assessment have been developed over the years which basically incorporate future climate projections of atmospheric-ocean circulation based climate models into the simulation of land surface hydrological processes. This study attempted to evaluate three methods of climate change impact assessment: (a) Frequency perturbation method, (b) direct method and (c) delta change method. A well-calibrated hydrologic model, Soil … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2014 · 8,604 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
