ABSTRACT- A pot experiment was conducted to elucidate the effects of single and co-inoculation of maize plant with Bacillus mycoides and Micrococcus roseus, indigenous to HMs contaminated soils, on the plant growth and uptake of essential nutrients and Ni by maize in the soil polluted by 250 and 500 mg Ni kg-1. At each level of Ni contamination, shoot dry weight and nutrients uptake significant...

This document sets forth procedures for establishing maximum emissions levels for all fossil-fuelbased thermal power plants with a capacity of 50 or more megawatts of electricity (MWe) that use coal, fuel oil, or natural gas.1 Conventional steam-producing thermal power plants generate electricity through a series of energy conversion stages: fuel is burned in boilers to convert water to high-pr...

background: total system design (tsd) factors are design factors, which have impact on overall performance of the power plants in context of total human engineering or macroergonomic. the evaluation of the impact of tsd factors was the main goal of this study. the main objective was human factors engineering on human performance in a power plant. methods : the systems being studied are the cont...

Within the US alone, there are approximately 28,600 networked Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) institutions, 2 million miles of oil/gas pipelines, 2,800 power plants with 300,000 production sites, 104 nuclear power plants, 80,000 dams, 60,000 chemical plants, 87,000 food processing plants, and 1,600 water treatment plants. And, this is just part of our national infrastructure. Add t...

The use of renewable non-conventional energy sources, as wind electric power and photovoltaic solar energy, has introduced uncertainties in the performance bulk systems. system availability been employed a useful tool for planning systems; however, traditional methodologies model generation units component with two states: service or out service. Nevertheless, this is not to plants assessment s...
