Removal of pollutant heterocyclic dyes from water with ZnO adsorbent
In this study, Copper oxide as a good and inexpensive adsorbent has been introduced and used for the removal of erythrosine and red carmoisine dyes from several water solutions successfully. The effect of various parameters such as pH, dye concentration, amount of adsorbent, contact time and temperature on removal processing was investigated. Adsorption isothermal data could be interpreted by t...
متن کاملIntegrated Methodology for Estimating Water Use in Mediterranean Agricultural Areas
Agricultural use is by far the largest consumer of fresh water worldwide, especially in the Mediterranean, where it has reached unsustainable levels, thus posing a serious threat to water resources. Having a good estimate of the water used in an agricultural area would help water managers create incentives for water savings at the farmer and basin level, and meet the demands of the European Wat...
متن کاملHybrid Metaheuristics for Crop Rotation
This work presents a mathematical model adapted from literature for the Crop Rotation Problem with Demand Constraints (CRP-D). This highly complex combinatorial problem is devised to find a vegetable planting program that takes into account green fertilization restrictions, the set-aside period, planting restrictions for neighboring lots and for crop sequencing, demand constraints, while, at th...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness and cost-benefit analysis of conservation management practices for sediment reduction in an Iowa agricultural watershed
Soil erosion from agricultural lands can be reduced by adoption of conservation management practices. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effectiveness and cost-benefit of conservation management practices on sediment reduction under a corn–soybean rotation. The experimental site was 6.4 ha (15.8 ac) and located within the Four Mile Creek watershed in eastern Iowa. Management p...
متن کاملThe Impact of Agricultural Water Conservation Policy on Economic Growth
An agricultural water conservation policy prevalent worldwide encourages producers to improve on-farm irrigation efficiency. Contrary to intention, increasing empirical evidence reveals that this policy may set an ‘irrigation efficiency trap’ that worsens water crises by reducing water supplies and jeopardizing economic growth. We derive a pair of testable hydrologic-economic conditions require...
