Aerobic biological filtration systems employing nitrifying bacteria to remediate excess ammonia and nitrite concentrations are common components of recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). However, significant water exchange may still be necessary to reduce nitrate concentrations to acceptable levels unless denitrification systems are included in the RAS design. This study evaluated the design ...

T HREE switchback metabolism studies were conducted to study the effects of replacing corn with 5, 10 and 15% cane molasses. Five percent molasses had no significant effect on any of the parameters studied. At 10 and 15% molasses added at the expense of corn in the basal ration, nitrogen retention and apparent digestibility of dry matter and energy were all significantly improved (P< .05) . The...

Very high gravity (VHG) technology was employed on industrial scale to produce ethanol from molasses (fermented) as well as by-products formation estimation. The effect of different Brix° (32, 36 and 40) air-flow rates (0.00, 0.20, 0.40, and 0.60vvm) was studied on ethanol production. The maximum ethanol production was recorded to be 12.2% (v/v) at 40 Brix° with 0.2vvm air-flow rate. At optimum...

Ceramic waste is most commonly produce from ceramic industry, this waste is in the form of pest and hard form, pest waste is known as the filter waste or slurry waste, which is produced at the end of polishing and finishing of ceramic tiles. The paper discuss that ceramic slurry waste powder is replaced by cement in concrete. Concrete grade M25 was made by replacing by 0% to 30% of Ordinary Por...

The current paper presents an institutional analysis of wastewater (non) treatment and reuse scenario using the case study of Hyderabad, India. The objective of the institutional analysis in the current study is to determine the extent and the character of an observed gap between declared rules (formal) and rules-in-use (informal practices) in the context of wastewater disposal, use and its adv...

Molasses formation from beet sugar liquors has had the attention of technologists for more than 100 years. Its formation in the factory is dependent on many factors but probably the most important variables are the effect of some non-sug-ars In decreasing the rate of crystallization and others in increasing the solubility of sucrose in the molasses solution. Since equilib­ rium between crystall...

Lipid extract and fatty acid composition of cane molasses and yeasts (Saccharomyces cerevisiae M-300A and Saccharomyces uvarum IZ-1904) grown in molasses medium were determined. In molasses, linoleic acid was found in higher levels (around 42%) and was followed by palmitic, oleic and linolenic acids. The lipid extract varied from 1.02 to 3.13 gkg. In yeasts, the level of lipid extract varied fr...

In the current scenario due to increased input costs, commercial dairy operations are seeking reduced-cost feed alternatives to enhance productivity while reducing feed costs. The organic dairy sector has had recent unprecedented changes in their industry due to increased grain prices. Therefore, organic dairy farmers in particular are seeking lowercost energy alternatives. Sugar cane molasses,...
