Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBioaugmentative Approaches for Dairy Wastewater TreatmentIrina Schneider, Yana TopalovaProblem statement: The achievement of a good ecological status of water receivers after discharge of waste or partially treated water from dairy industry requires harmonic interaction between water treatment technology and self-purification processes. Approach: The present research included two modules. First: an anaerobic treatment process for dairy wastewater in broadly spread sequencing batch bioreactor with fixed biomass was studied. As … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2010 · 8,894 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrocarbon Biodegrading Potentials of a Proteus vulgaris Strain Isolated from Fish SamplesPatience O. Olajide, L. B. OgbeifunA Proteus vulgaris bacterium SR-1 was isolated from a freshly killed fish sample collected close to the point of crude oil spill in the Niger Delta region, Nigeria. Problem statement: The application of native bacterial species in bioremediation processes has long been desired, because they would be cost effective and efficient in terms of acclimation time. The ability to isolate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 8,277 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurvival and Changes in Germination Response of Rumex obtusifolius Polygonum longisetum and Oenothera biennis during Burial at Three Soil DepthsShiro TsuyuzakiTo investigate patterns in seed germination and survival at three different soil depths over a long time span, seeds of Rumex obtusifolius, Polygonum longisetum and Oenothera biennis were examined as a function of season (spring, autumn) and soil depth (3, 10, 30 cm). Buried seeds were exhumed after 3 years and subjected to two different temperature treatments. These were gradually … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,194 accessesView PDF Cite
