چکیده مقاله:

Increasing level of carbon dioxide CO2 due to industrial activity is primarily cause of global warming. Planting Artoplex lentiformis can help to reduce atmospheric CO2 buildup partly replacing use of fuels and by carbon storage. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of row spacing on carbon storage. A split- plot design with three replications included three row spacing (2×2, 4×4, and 6×6m) was applied. Some laboratory samples were taken from aerial and root biomass of Artoplex, and soil for determination of carbon storage. Results showed the values of carbon storage of aerial and root biomass among row spacing was significant different (p=0/o5%). The highest carbon storage was related to 2×2 m row spacing, reached 74583.6 and 6862.5 kg/ha in aerial and root biomass respectively. The carbon amount of soil had no significant differences (p=0/o5%) between treatments. The ranking of the plantation carbon storage by row spacing was 2×2 m > 4×4 m > and 6×6m and by components was aerial carbon> root carbon > soil carbon

Phytoremediation of nitrogen-contaminated soil by Atriplex lentiformis, Atriplex canescens and Atriplex leucoclada

In this study, the ability of three rangeland species Atriplex halimus, A. canescens and A. lentiformis to remove nitrate from soil in vitro (greenhouse) in a completely randomized design was investigated. For this purpose, potassium nitrate salt (KNO3) was used in four treatments control, 6.3 ppm, 9.5 ppm and 14.5 ppm in three repetitions. Plant species used in this study with an approximate...

Acclimation of Photosynthetic and Respiratory Carbon Dioxide Exchange to Growth Temperature in Atriplex lentiformis (Torr.) Wats.

Atriplex lentiformis plants collected from coastal and desert habitats exhibit marked differences in capacity to adjust photosynthetic response to changes in growth temperature. Plants from desert habitats grown at 43 C day/30 C night temperatures had higher CO(2) uptake rates at high temperatures but reduced rates at low temperatures as compared to plants grown at 23 C day/18 C night temperatu...

Hydrogen storage in carbon nanotubes with Ni nanoparticles by electrochemical

In this paper, the electrochemical hydrogen storage in nanocomposite materials was studied. Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) electrode was prepared by mixing with special composite. The optimum ratio of MWCNTs was estimated 30-70% (w/w) in the composite material. MWCNTs were synthesized by Chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The nanocomposite was homogenized by microwave. Cyclic voltammetry ...
