Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNitrification of Urea and Assimilation of Nitrate in Saturated Soils Under Aerobic ConditionsV. V. Ramakrishnan, A. E. GhalyThe aim of this study was to investigate nitrification activity of urea and the assimilation of nitrate in a well aerated soil using perfusion technique with addition of glucose as an energy and carbon source. In this study, urea was rapidly nitrified by the bacteria in the saturated soil but its course of transformation to NO3 was not linear. There … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2013 · 8,415 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Quasi Delay Insensitive Reduced Stack Pre-Charged Half Buffer based High Speed Adder using pipeline templates for Asynchronous CircuitsD. Jayanthi, M. RajaramProblem statement: Recent research in asynchronous design technique is making asynchronous circuits an increasingly practical alternative. These challenges include the increasing pressure for low power, the growing challenges of predicting the increasing impact of wire load and delay and the performance penalty associated with supporting communication between different clock domains Asynchronous is binary signals, but there is no common or … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 7 Jun 2012 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinetics and Thermodynamics of Cd(II) Ions Sorption on Mixed Sorbents Prepared from Olive Stone and Date Pit from Aqueous SolutionN. Babakhouya, S. Boughrara, F. AbadProblem statement: The aim of this study is to remove Cd(II) ions from aqueous solutions by adsorption. Mixed sorbent prepared from olive stone and date pit, an agricultural solid by-product was used as adsorbent. Approach: The adsorption experiments of Cd(II) onto the mixture of olive stone and date pit were conducted at different parameters such as, percent of olive stone … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2010 · 6,916 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPollution Sources and Standards of Cashew Nut ProcessingAtul Mohod, Sudhir Jain, A. G. PowarProblem statement: India is largest producer, processor, exporter and second largest consumer of cashew in the world with annual production of 6,20,000 MT. India processed about 1.18 million MT of raw cashew seeds through 3650 cashew processing industries scattered in many states of country. The cashew industries employed different unit operations/ methodologies for processing depend on variety of raw material, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Total Solid Contents on Biogas Yield from Cattle Manure Using Rumen Fluid InoculumBudiyono, I. N. Widiasa, S. Johari, SunarsoProblem statement: Anaerobic digestion was a biological method used to convert organic wastes into biogas and a stable product for land application without adverse environmental effects. The biogas produced could be used as an alternative renewable energy source. The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of total solid contents on biogas yield from cattle manure using fluid … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 12,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArtificial Neural Network Based Model for Forecasting Sugar Cane ProductionO. O. Obe, D. K. ShangodoyinProblem statement: The global need for alternative energy source has necessitated the exploration of vast organic agricultural products with a view of processing them for the production of ethanol in commercial quantity. To ascertain a sustainable production of ethanol from processed sugar cane, a predictive model based on non-linearity nature of its production is imperative. This is due to unavailability … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,268 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Solution onto a Low-Cost Natural Jordanian TripoliAtef S. ALzaydienProblem statement: It is well documented that lead is one of contaminants of industrial wastewaters and its pollution exists in the wastewater of many industries. As a result, recent research has focused on the development of cost effective alternatives using various natural sources and industrial wastes. In this setting, the use of low-cost agricultural materials, waste and residues for recovering … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhat is Xenohormesis?Joseph A. Baur, David A. SinclairPolyphenols such as resveratrol and quercetin, which are produced by stressed plants, activate sirtuin enzymes and extend the lifespan of fungi and animals, ostensibly by mimicking the beneficial effects of caloric restriction. This observation raises an interesting question: Why should foreign molecules that are non-nutritive and seemingly unrelated to any endogenous molecule modulate the same biochemical pathways that mediate the … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 10,386 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLaser Interaction and Related Plasma PhenomenaFrederick Osman, Peter Evans, Peter Toups et al.Computations are to be performed using the laser driven inertial fusion energy option based on volume ignition with the natural adiabatic self-similarity compression and expansion hydrodynamics [1]. The numerical work includes the establishing of a multi-branch reaction code to be used for simultaneous fusion reactions of D-D, D-T D-He3 and mutual nuclear reaction products. This will permit the studies of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 6,816 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Control Strategy for Photovoltaic-Solid Polymer Electrolysis System Based on Surface Temperature of PV PanelRiza Muhida, Wahyudi, Rifki Muhida, Ahmad Unggul PriantoroProcesses to produce hydrogen from solar photovoltaic powered water electrolysis using solid polymer electrolysis are reported. An alternative control of maximum power point tracking method based on analysis of PV panel’s surface Temperature for the PV-SPE system was designed and implemented. From this analysis an optimal voltage of PV can be obtained and was realized as a reference voltage of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,407 accessesView PDFCite
