A method for characterization of airborne particles including the nanoparticles fraction with a diameter of 29-58 nm in roadside atmosphere has been described. The method consists of thermal extraction (TE) and comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC x GC) with novel detection capabilities, including high resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HRTOF-MS), and simultaneous sele...

INTRODUCTION Safe wastewater treatment methods have always been a challenge to the society. During the last 50 years, pollution abatement measures have been given high priority, particularly discharges from the growing urban areas. Early objectives were to reduce the emissions of organic matter and pathogens, while other objectives related to the emission of heavy metals and nutrients (phosphor...

A pot experiment was conducted under greenhouse conditions to study the effect of phosphorus fertilization soil moisture content on some growth indicators, yield and seed nitrogen phosphorous for two wheat cultivars, Adnaniah Sham-6, in calcareous suffering from a lack available phosphorus. The results indicated that led an improvement plant growth, as it caused increase relative water leaves, ...

Abstract The experiment was conducted in the season (2020-2021) one of greenhouses second research station College Agriculture at University Al-Muthanna, this study carried out to find effect adding yeast fodder three concentrations (0, 5.0, 10.0 gL −1 ) as well nano fertilizer 0.5, 1.0 ml L ). Where on eggplant planted greenhouses, irrigation system these houses drip technology, with random re...

intercropping is considered as a method for increasing yield per unit and stability. in order to evaluate the effects of phosphorous biofertilizer and chemical phosphorous on fodder quality of corn (zea mays l.) and grass pea (lathyrus sativa l.) intercropping, two field experiments were conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with four replications at two places simult...

Enhanced sequestration of plant-carbon (C) inputs to soil may mitigate rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations and related climate change but how this sequestration will respond to anthropogenic nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) deposition is uncertain. We couple isotope, soil C fractionation and mesocosm techniques to assess the sequestration of plant-C inputs, and their partitio...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the feasibility of nitrogen and phosphorus recovery from swine waste biogas digester effluent and the effects of pH and NH4+: Mg2+: PO4(3-) molar ratio on its precipitation. METHODS Precipitation experiments with swine waste biogas digester effluent were conducted at pH 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 together with NH4+: Mg2+: PO4(3-) molar ratios 1: 0.2: 0.08, 1: 1: 1, and 1:...

Maize is the New World’s preeminent grain crop and it provided the economic basis for human culture in many regions within the Americas. To flourish, maize needs water, sunlight (heat), and nutrients (e.g., nitrogen). In this paper, climate and soil chemistry data are used to evaluate the potential for dryland (rainon-field) agriculture in the semiarid southeastern Colorado Plateau and Rio Gran...

A study was conducted to compare the composition of equine manure as removed from stall, and bedding-free on six horse farms. The farms ranged a pleasure stable with poorly managed stalls an intensively for racehorses. characteristics measured included: moisture content, total nitrogen, ammoniacal nitrate organic phosphorous (expressed P2O5), potassium K2O), calcium, magnesium, sulfur, zinc, co...
