a quantitative evaluation of the effects of contamination of soil with petroleum, on thesoil physical properties, is required for optimal soil and water resources management. theobjective followed in the present study was to investigate runoff generation in soilscontaminated with kerosene and gas oil. towards this end, variables of runoffcommencement, runoff coefficient, variations in runoff du...

This study assessed the heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) pollutant in soil around petrol filling stations automobile mechanic workshops. Samples of were acquired from depth range 0–15 cm. Toxic analyzed with atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The PAHs using phytochemical chromatographic analysis by Soxhlet extraction method. tested was weakly acidic (6.12–6.81). trend ...

One of the major drawbacks of IC engines is low efficiency and pollution resulting from incomplete combustion. In order to improve the emission properties and performance an oxygenated additive MTBE (Methyl tertiary butyl ether), is blended with gasoline. A four cylinder, 1817 cc engine was used for analysing both emission and performance characteristics. Tests were carried out with 100% pure g...

In this paper, the relation among factors in the road transportation sector from March, 2005 to March, 2011 is analyzed. Most of the previous studies have economical point of view on gasoline consumption. Here, a new approach is proposed in which different data mining techniques are used to extract meaningful relations between the aforementioned factors. The main and dependent factor is gasolin...

A& Physiol. 16(l): 71-76. 1961.-In excised lungs of dogs, the static pressure-volume characteristics of the vascular bed were determined with the vessels filled with dextran and again after replacement of the dextran with kerosene. Whereas the dextra...

Gasoline is one of the sources of emissions, which can endanger health if used incorrectly as a matter of respirable. The present study was exerted to evaluate the effects of gasoline vapor inhalation on testes tissue in male rats. In our study male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control, gasoline vapor receiving for 1hour, 2 hours and 3 hours/day. After 10 weeks, testes tissue was exam...

In recent years, calls for carbon taxes as a policy tool to combat global warming have kept a discussion of the price and income elasticities of gasoline demand alive. To date, gasoline demand elasticity estimates are almost exclusively based on aggregate data that are subject to aggregation problems and make distributional concerns impossible to address. By using Ž . household-level data from ...
