Growth and biochemical performance of Manihot esculenta Crantz (TMS 0505) amended with Centrosema pubescens and NPK fertilizer were carried out. Contamination levels of 2%, 4%, and 6% were used while amelioration treatments C. pubescens and NPK 15:15:15 were carried out by adding organic supplement (decomposed Centrosema pubescens) and NPK at the rate of 0.25Kg per 5Kg of soil to the various le...

The decline in Indonesia's national crude oil production which is directly proportional to the increase operational costs has an impact on reducing state revenues from and gas revenue sharing funds. One of efforts that can be done eliminate losses this sector conduct energy analysis exergy determine locations where occur are then converted into economic upstream business form operating costs. E...

Due to the presence of environmental problems, it is urgent improve processes aimed at processing and purification hydrocarbon-containing wastes wastewaters. The review presents latest achievements in development nanostructured catalysts made from different materials that can be used purify oil-polluted wastewaters (petroleum refinery wastewater, oilfield-produced water, sulfur-containing extra...

Crude oil is one of the most necessitated worldwide required commodities. Any slight fluctuation in crude oil prices can have both direct and indirect influence on the economy of the countries. The unpredictability of crude oil prices forced many companies away from the competition and it influence the stock market and many other macroeconomic variables (inflation, GDP, Import bill etc). Crude ...

We investigated and quantified defecation rates of crude oil by 3 species of marine planktonic copepods (Temora turbinata, Acartia tonsa, and Parvocalanus crassirostris) and a natural copepod assemblage after exposure to mechanically or chemically dispersed crude oil. Between 88 and 100% of the analyzed fecal pellets from three species of copepods and a natural copepod assemblage exposed for 48...

Crude oil is an unprocessed petroleum product. This substance hydrocarbon deposits and organic materials. It’s utilized in several ways. It industries, transfers, dynamic. Heavy crude bitumen are difficult to extract treat from their resources due increased viscosity, limited mobility, high carbon-to-hydrogen atomic ratios. So ingredients would be required minimize viscosity. The viscosity of a...

Oil spills can be disastrous to any ecosystem. Bioremediation through bioaugmentation (addition of oil-degrading bacteria) and biostimulation (addition of nutrients N&P) options can be a promising strategy for combating oil spills following first response actions. However, bioaugmentation is one of the most controversial issues of bioremediation since nutrient addition alone has a greater effec...

OBJECTIVES Astrodaucus persicus, Apiaceae, is used as vegetable or food additive in some parts of Iran. The essential oils of different parts of Astrodaucus persicus from Kordestan province were analyzed for the first time and compared with other regions. In this study, antioxidant activities and total phenols determination of aerial parts essential oils and root fractions of A. persicus were i...
