Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBehavior of Stabilized Peat Soils in Unconfined Compression TestsWong Leong Sing, Roslan Hashim, Faisal Haji AliProblem statement: Deep stabilized peat columns were known to be economical at forming foundations to support highway embankments constructed on deep peat land. However, failure in the formation of the columns with adequate strength was often attributed to unsuitable type and insufficient dosage of binder added to the soil. Organic matter in peat was known to impede the cementing process … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Treated Wastewater in Terms of Environmental StandardsSona Pazdar, Saeid Eslamian, Hossein Gholami, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariThe desired use of refined wastewater has not yet found its proper place in many countries, therefore, achieving a relative equilibrium in the field of urban wastewater evacuation and re-utilizing it is a fundamental principle. And this great matter is not possible except by developing a comprehensive refinery waste management system. The set of measures that have been taken so … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 27 Sep 2019 · 7,914 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Partial Substitution of Potassium by Sodium on the Growth Effect of SugarcaneChao Zheng, Yong-Xiang Huang, Jin Li et al.The effects of different potassium and sodium levels on the growth of Taisugar No. 22 (ROC22) were studied by potted nutrient solution-sand culture experiment in this paper. The results showed that under low potassium stress (0 mmol/L) supply, the proper application of sodium could significantly promote photosynthesis of sugarcane and dry matter accumulation, reduce root shoot ratio and promote shoot … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2018 · 11,317 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Aliphatic Hydrocarbons in Sediments of Shatt Al-Arab River, Southern Iraq, North East Arabian GulfWisam Abdul-Ameer FaridShatt Al-Arab River is one of the important rivers for water supply, industry and irrigation in Basrah City, south of Iraq. It's also supply drinking water to users in the region. Despite the significance of this river, there is a lack of previous studies dealing with petroleum pollution especially for geochemical studies of organic matter in the river sediments using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 29 Jan 2018 · 7,460 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing Soil Fertility Status of Rehabilitated Degraded Tropical RainforestAiza Shaliha Jamaluddin, Arifin Abdu, Hazandy Abdul-Hamid et al.An assessment of forest rehabilitation program in relation to soil fertility status by using soil indices could provide fundamental information on soil suitability for species preferences and improve the effective technique for future rehabilitation program in tropical rainforests. This study was conducted in order to characterize the soil properties and identifying the soil fertility status of rehabilitated and secondary forests. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 19 Jul 2013 · 8,461 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSorption of Phenols: Influence of Groundwater pH and of Soil Organic Carbon ContentSilvia Fiore, Maria Chiara ZanettiProblem statement: Physical and chemical properties of soil, groundwater and pollutants deeply influenced the type and the strength of sorption phenomena involving hydrophobic organic contaminants: Soil fraction of organic carbon (foc) and cation exchange capacity, groundwater pH and pollutants hydrophobicity were with undoubtedly the predominant issues. Approach: In this study an experimental study of the sorption of phenol and 2-nitrophenol … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,010 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Different Ages of a Rehabilitated Forest on Selected Physico-chemical PropertiesRajeswari A.P. Murugayah, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: This research was important because of still lack of information about rehabilitated tropical forest age effect on infiltration rate. The objectives of this study were to determine the influence of age of forest on soil water infiltration rate and to evaluate the influence of forest age on the relationship between water infiltration rate, soil organic matter and soil … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,108 accessesView PDFCite
