The aim of the present work was focused on the cellulase production by Aspergillus niger using different substrates (i.e) rice bran, wheat bran, black gram bran, coconut oil cake, groundnut oil cake, and gingely oil cake. Solid state fermentation holds tremendous potentials for the production of the enzyme cellulase by Aspergillus niger. These agro industrial residues are cheap raw materials fo...

The failure of the Ajka red mud depository in October 2010 led to the largest single release of red mud into the surface water environment. This study provides a comparative assessment of stream sediment quality in the Torna-Marcal-Rába catchment between post-disaster surveys (2010) and follow up surveys at an identical suite of 21 locations in 2013. The signature of red mud apparent in initial...

Wedding cake growth is a layer-by-layer growth model commonly observed in epitaxial growth of metal films, featured by repeated nucleation of new atomic layers on the topmost surface owing to the confinement of the Ehrlich-Schwoebel (ES) barrier. Herein, we report an inverted wedding cake growth phenomenon observed in two-dimensional nanostructure evolution. Through a dynamically controlled vap...

Flaxseed oil cake was subjected to fermentation with Rhizopus oligosporus (DSM 1964 and ATCC 64063), and the phytate (InsP6) content, myo-inositol phosphate profile and in vitro bioavailability of essential minerals were studied. Flaxseed oil cake had a phytate mass fraction of 13.9 mg/g. A 96-hour fermentation of flaxseed oil cake by R. oligosporus DSM 1964 and R. oligosporus ATCC 64063 decrea...

The most important solution in the new sodium chromate production process implemented in Alwernia Chemical Works is in-process recycling of chromic mud. This allows lessening the hazard to the natural environment resulting from released chromic waste. It also involves economical advantages. This paper presents studies on the optimisation of this process using of a fuzzy logic method. The influe...

.\BSTR.\ CT A brief summary of the limited literature devoted to mud balls centers around nomenclature, the ideas regarding the origin of mud balls, and the factors limiting their size. A report is made of a combined field and laboratory study in which an investigaticn of the size which mud balls may attain leads to conclusions that differ from those in the literature; findings are presented wh...

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the inclusion of sunflower cake in the diets of lambs on meat quality. Forty male, uncastrated Santa Ines lambs with an initial average body weight of 20.9 ± 0.41 kg were used in a completely randomized design with four treatments. The lambs were fed 500 g/kg hay and 500 g/kg concentrate (corn, soybean meal, urea, ammonium sulfate and sunflow...

an improved model of mud dispersion has been introduced in this work. the advantages of this model consist of a new analytical correlation for dispersivity by using resistivity log data and using a new aspect of capacitance dispersion model. mathematical formulations were expressed, solved by numerical model taking advantage of actual log and formation data. achieved results yielded reasonable ...

We propose a general technique related to the polytopal Sperner lemma for proving old and new multilabeled versions of Sperner’s lemma. A notable application of this technique yields a cake-cutting theorem where the number of players and the number of pieces can be independently chosen. We also prove multilabeled versions of Fan’s lemma, a combinatorial analogue of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem, and ...

Goals include the development of models and methods that explain observed material and acoustic properties of different physical types of shallow-ocean mud sediments. Other goals are to assess prior data relating to the acoustic properties of mud and to provide guidance in the development and interpretation of experiments. A related goal is to construct models that will guide inversion techniqu...
