Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStatus of Water Quality Based on the Physico-Chemical Assessment on River Water at Wildlife Sanctuary Sibuti Mangrove Forest, Miri SarawakSeca Gandaseca, Noraini Rosli, Johin Ngayop, Chandra Iman AriantoProblem statement: Mangrove forest is a component of wetlands that has been recognized as one of the most productive ecosystem in the tropic. Rapid development and other land uses in the mangrove areas over the years had negatively affected the ecological functions and its ecosystem. Study was carried out on river water quality at Sibuti Wildlife Sanctuary, Miri based on … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 12 Jul 2011 · 9,962 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparative Study of Water Quality at Different Peat Swamp Forest of Batang Igan, Sibu SarawakNoraini Rosli, Seca Gandaseca, Johan Ismail, Mohd Iqbal JailanProblem statement: It is important to find the status of water quality at converted peat swamp forest into oil palm plantation. This study was conducted to find and determine the water quality at peat swamp forest of Batang Igan, Sibu Sarawak. This study presents a status on the water quality of peat swamp forest at the area. Approach: In-situ data … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2010 · 13,152 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsScreening of Bacteria for Lactic Acid Production from Whey WaterVethakanraj Helen Shiphrah, Sayanti Sahu, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon Ray ChaudhuriLactobacilli have the property of converting lactose and other sugars to lactic acid through fermentation. So whey water, the greenish translucent liquid rich in lactose, vitamins, proteins and mineral salts, obtained as a by-product after the precipitation of cheese can be used as a substrate for Lactobacilli for lactic acid production which otherwise is a serious environmental pollutant when disposed … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2013 · 9,340 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPhysicochemical and Microbial Caracteristics Performency in Wastewater Treated Under Aerobic ReactorAsma Ben Rajeb, Hamadi Kallali, Neila Saidi et al.Problem statement: The current work study the efficiency of biological wastewater treatment by an aerobic reactor which could be used in small agglomerations. RBC reduced physicochemical and microbiological load of wastewater but values remain above Tunisian standard. Approach: Experiments were conducted on a sand filled PVC column fed with wastewater treated by Rotating Biological Contactor (RBC) at a pulsed rhythm … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 6,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNumerical Treatment of the Mathematical Models for Water PollutionF. B. Agusto, O. M. BamigbolaTo evaluate the environmental impact of pollution, mathematical models play a major role in predicting the pollution level in the regions under consideration. This paper examines the various mathematical models involving water pollutant. We also give the implicit central difference scheme in space, and a forward difference method in time for the evaluation of the generalized transport equation. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Selenium-Enriched Yeast (Kluyveromyces marxianus) Biomass in a whey-based Culture MediumNicolás Gurdo, Mario Calafat, Diego Gabriel Noseda, Isabel GigliTwo important aspects of agriculture intensification are the reduction in the concentration of specific soil minerals that affects livestock production and the increase of agricultural by-products, which produce environmental pollution. In this regard, whey - a cheese by-product-often is considered a wasted-product. Due to its lactose concentration, (4.5%), when whey is discarded without treatment generates a high Biological Oxygen Demand … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 28 Jun 2018 · 11,375 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractELECTROLYSIS OF SWINE MANURE EFFLUENTS USING THREE DIFFERENT ELECTRODES Fe-Fe, Al-Al AND Fe-AlS. Rahman, M. S. BorhanSwine effluent with high organic strength need to be treated to make it suitable for applying to crop/pasture fields, or discharging to any waterways. Electrocoagulation is a relatively simpler and cheaper technique over biological and chemical treatment methods currently used to treat high-strength industrial and municipal wastewater. The performance of an electrocoagulation system mainly depends on the pH, Electrical Conductivity … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 9 Oct 2014 · 9,177 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcetone Removal and Bioelectricity Generation in Dual Chamber Microbial Fuel CellMostafa Ghasemi, Mostafa Rahimnejad, Ghasem Najafpour et al.Synthetic waste water contain organic compound can be oxidized in an anaerobic conditions in microbial fuel cell while biodegradation of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) takes place under anaerobic condition in anode compartment. The microorganisms for biological treatment of the organic matter were obtained from a UASFB bioreactor. In the treatment of waste water, ones COD was removed the current and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2012 · 8,523 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOlive Wastewaters' Impact on Oued Boufekrane in Meknes-TafilaletMajdouline Larif, Abdelmajid Soulaymani, Mohammed Hnach, Azzedine ElmidaouiProblem statement: Water quality of river Boufekrane is subject to heavy pollution exerted by population growth and industrial activity, including the OMW from the olive industry in which the presence of polyphenols and toxic effect dominant character may generate a higher organic pollution. Approach: Our objective is to "study the impact of OMW by analyzing the physicochemical parameters on seven … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Apr 2012 · 7,514 accessesView PDFCite
