Approach: The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview on Landfill Leachate TreatmentsAbdulhussain A. Abbas, Guo Jingsong, Liu Zhi Ping et al.Problem Statement: Sanitary landfilling is the most common way to eliminate solid urban wastes. An important problem associated to landfills is the production of leachates. This study is a review of landfill leachate treatments. Approach: The advantages and disadvantages of the various existing leachate treatments discussed under the items: (i) Leachate channeling (combined treatment with domestic sewage, recycling) (ii) Biological … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 13,754 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 abstractDistillation and Microdiffusion Modifications for total Nh4f Quantification and 15N RecoveryGaius D. Eudoxie, Gregory A. GouveiaProblem statement: Applying 15N techniques to accurately determine the fate of fixed ammonium (NH4f) in the strongly and weakly held pools require modifications to existing methodologies. Modifications are necessary for measurement of total NH4f in soils by direct digestion with 5 M HF: 1 M HCl, excluding alkali pretreatment, followed by distillation and quantification of NH4. Quantification by distillation was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Minimal Duration Essential for Isolation of Humic Acids From Soils in Forest Restoration ProgrammesMohd Ramzan Nur Hanisah, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Kasim Susilawati et al.This study was conducted to investigate whether a simple and rapid method could be developed for extracting, fractionating and purifying soil HA in forest rehabilitation programmes. Humic acids from 10 g of soil were extracted with 100 mL of 0.10 M NaOH. Different extraction periods (4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 h) were tested. Samples were centrifuged (16,211 G … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,173 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetoxification of Heavy Metal Contaminated SoilsFloarea Damian, Gheorghe DamianThe concentration of the heavy metals in the soils from the strong affected zones because of the mining and metallurgical industry, Baia Mare and Zlatna (Romania), is significant due to the high values of the contents and association of the four metals Pb, Cu, Zn, Cd. The efficacy of the natural zeolites in heavy metals immobilization from the studied soils … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,233 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 abstractNucleation and Crystal Growth Rates of Struvite in DTM Type Crystallizer with a Jet-Pump of Descending Suspension Flow in a Mixing ChamberJoanna Koralewska, Krzysztof Piotrowski, Boguslawa Wierzbowska, Andrzej MatyniaThe kinetic data concerning reaction-crystallization of struvite from diluted water solutions of Mg2+, NH4+ and PO43- ions in a continuous DTM-type liquid jet-pump crystallizer with internal circulation of suspension are presented and discussed. The measurements were performed with the assumption of minimal value of unit power of a jet-pump’s feeding stream, providing thus a minimal level of internal circulation intensity. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStabilization of Tyrosinase-Bovine Serum Albumin Crystals by GlutaraldehydeD. Norouzian, A. Akbarzadeh, M.H. Abnosi et al.Tyrosinase and bovine serum albumin were co-crystallized by saturated ammonium sulfate solution(65%) and 20% polyethylene glycol ( PEG) 6000 and n-propanol as co-solvents .The obtained crystals were cross linked by glutaraldehyde solution(1% v/v).Polyethylene glycol 6000 was found to be better co-solvent than n-propanol. The developed biocatalyst could be recycled 6 times without further loss of tyrosinase activity.
