Sulfur dioxide (SO2), a major air pollutant in developing countries, is highly toxic to plants. To achieve better air quality and landscape, planting appropriate grass species in severe SO2 polluted areas is very critical. Cynodon dactylon, a widely used warm season turfgrass species, has good SO2-tolerant ability. In this study, we selected 9 out of 38 C. dactylon accessions from Southwest Chi...

Abstract Economic growth and rapid industrialisation have led to enormous increase in municipal solid waste (MSW). Lack of management alternatives ineffective policy implementation are the major challenges for government materialise a sustainable framework, especially plastic waste. Booming food beverage (F&B) industry has aggravated situation by generating more with no economic values. Hen...

introduction sarcheshmeh copper mine is regarded as the second largest copper deposit in the world. this is one of the largest industrial-mining complexes in the world and the largest producer of copper in iran. this complex plays an important role in iran’s economy. in 2012, this complex created employment for about 8000 people in iran and produced 203065 tons of copper cathodes. however, high...

Fusarium head blight is a destructive disease of cereals worldwide. The aim of this research was to study the effect of heavy Fusarium infection with Fusarium culmorum and biosynthesis of mycotoxins on different wheat varieties during malting by setting up field trials with control and Fusarium-inoculated treatments at the Agricultural Institute Osijek. The highest occurrence of Fusarium mycoto...

The process of utilizing existing empty oil palm fruit bunches is a utilization commonly carried out in various plantation industries. Palm liquid and solid waste an environmental burden that produces global warming potential (GWP) emissions. This study aims to determine the magnitude impact using bunches. method used this ISO 14040 life cycle assessment (LCA) CML-Baseline IA method. results sh...

In this paper, we introduce a notion of generalized states from an EQ-algebra E1 to another EQ-algebra E2, which is a generalization of internal states (or state operators) on an EQ-algebra E. Also we give a type of special generalized state from an EQ-algebra E1 to E1, called generalized internal states (or GI-state). Then we give some examples and basic properties of generalized (internal) st...

El objetivo del estudio fue la caracterización productiva y de emisiones modeladas gases efecto invernadero (GEI) en 61 sistemas lecheros localizados cinco regiones Honduras. Durante las fases inicial (FI) final (FF), con encuestas aplicadas individualmente a los productores, se identificaron aspectos técnicos productividad. Variables numéricas expresadas Microsoft Excel® permitieron, el modelo...

Canada is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions to 6% below 1990 amounts between 2008 and 2012, and methane is one of several greenhouse gases being targeted for reduction. Methane production from ruminants is one area in which the agriculture sector can contribute to reducing our global impact. Through mathematical modeling, we can further our understanding of factors that control...

Consumers' motivations for buying organic products include a wish of acquiring healthy, environmentally friendly products from production systems that also ensure a high level of animal welfare. However, the current Danish organic pig production faces important challenges regarding environmental impact of the system. High ammonia emissions arise from outdoor concrete areas with growing pigs and...
