Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArsenic Adsorption on Bauxite Mineral Using Batch Equilibrium TestFares Yahay Alshaebi, Wan Zuhairi Wan Yaacob, Abdul Rahim Samsudin, Esmail AlsabahiProblem statement: Study suggested a solution to remove arsenic contamination from contaminated water. Approach: Bauxite, which is a mineral, was proposed as natural remediation material used in this study. Bauxite was collected from Johor mining company in Teluk Ramunia, Johor Bharu, Malaysia. Batch equilibrium test was performed in accordance to different initial concentrations, shaking time and different initial pH values. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 6,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWomen Empowerment through Participation in Micro-Credit Programme: A Case Study from BangladeshMahmuda Hoque, Yoshihito ItoharaProblem statement: Numerous micro-credit organizations have been emerged as the form of mushroom in Bangladesh in the recent times. All of them are providing micro-credit to the poor women with the view of poverty reduction and empowering the rural women. Thus, the researchers take an attempt to check that to what extent these micro-credit programmes are effective in empowering rural … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectric Power System Under-Voltage Load Shedding Protection Can Become a TrapLuiz Augusto Pereira Fernandes, Alexandre Rocco, Heraldo Silveira Barbuy, Geraldo Caixeta GuimarãesProblem statement: Under-Voltage Load Shedding (UVLS) protection of Electric Power Systems (EPS) is frequently used against Voltage Collapse (VC), however when there is automatic bus voltage regulation with excessive capacitive compensation, the UVLS scheme may not trip. In this case, load shedding must be based in a Voltage Collapse Proximity Indicator (VCPI). Many UVLS procedures may not be appropriate today. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,203 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVoltage Collapse Risk Associated to Under-Voltage Capacitive Compensation in Electric Power System OperationHeraldo Silveira Barbuy, Alexandre Rocco, Luiz Augusto Pereira Fernandes, Geraldo Caixeta GuimarãesProblem statement: In the operation of an Electric Power System (EPS), it has been usual to provide reactive power injection to avoid an under-voltage bus condition. In some situations an adequate voltage profile will not be a guarantee against Voltage Collapses (VCs) that may cause blackouts as seen in many occurrences around the world. The repeatedly injection of reactive power … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParticipation and Decision Making Role of Rural Women in Economic Activities: A Comparative Study for Members and Non-Members of the Micro-Credit Organizations in BangladeshMahmuda Hoque, Yoshihito ItoharaThe study was aimed to know the present status of rural women's participation and decision making role in economic activities (called EAs from here) in Bangladesh. The sample of the study consisted of 92 farm women from Rampur village of Palashbari upazila under Gaibandha district. Necessary data for the study were collected with questionnaire by personal interviewing of the respondent … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,201 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutrient Digestibility and Gas Production of Some Tropical Feeds Used in Ruminant Diets Estimated by the in vivo and in vitro Gas Production TechniquesPaya Hamid, Taghizadeh Akbar, Janmohammadi Hossein, Moghadam Gholam AliSome feedstuffs which used in ruminants diet (corn grain, soybean meal, wheat bran and alfalfa) were analyzed for chemical composition, apparent in vivo nutrient digestibility, in vitro fermentation gas production and metabolizable energy. Chemical composition of test feeds differed in nutrient contents. Initially apparent in vivo digestibility of alfalfa nutrients were obtained then digestibility of nutrients for the other test … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Case Study of River Rehabilitation for Fish in Northern Italy: The Panaro River ProjectClaudio Comoglio, Enrico Pini Prato, Mauro Ferri, Massimiliano GianaroliThe restoration of longitudinal connectivity of a watercourse altered by man-made obstacles is a key issue for the protection and safeguard of freshwater ecosystems and the construction of fish passes constitutes a relevant ad hoc measure. However, in many countries, like Italy, there is still not an adequate technical-scientific background and experience in this field and therefore several migratory species … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReservoir Oscillations with Through FlowA.A. KhanThe two-reservoir problem with through flow is a common feature in wastewater treatment plants. The start of the through flow may cause water surface oscillations in the reservoirs and velocity variations in the connecting pipe during the initial unsteady phase that may adversely affect the operation and under certain conditions may cause overtopping of the upstream reservoir. The classical solution … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Short or Long Term FGA Treatment with or without eCG on Reproductive Performance of Ewes Bred Out-of-seasonMustafa Q. Husein, Mohammed M. Ababneh, Dia S. Abu-RumanThe objective was to evaluate the effects of intravaginal FGA sponges inserted for 4 or 12 days with or without eCG on reproductive performance of ewes out-of-season. Forty-eight anestrous ewes were assigned in equal numbers to four treatments in a 2x2 factorial design. Ewes were administered with FGA sponges on May 17 for 12 days (12-day-FGA-eCG and 12-day-FGA groups, n= … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
