This paper explains the procedure and results of electro osmosis treatment of a dispersive soil. A number of cylindrical specimens of a dispersive soil were subjected to the electro osmosis effect and the subsequent cation changes in the soil, inlet water and outlet water were measured. The tests were carried out using distilled water and lime extract in anode. It was observed that with distill...

Lime ball quality inspection is an important task in the pulp and paper industry. In this paper a new method, build-up on a neural network and a path search method, is introduced for lime ball automatic visual inspection. Several correction steps to Landau's method are also introduced.

Olive mill wastewater (OMW), a liquid by-product of the olive oil industry, represents a severe environmental problem owing to its high pollution load. In this study, successive columns containing different types of natural materials were investigated for their OMW treatment efficiency. Passing OMW through three columns of gravel, fine sand, and a mixture of acidified cotton and zeolite (weight...

dispersive soils are prevailent in many parts of the world, including in iran. construction of hydraulic structures on dispersive soils has created various serious problems. since it is neither economical nor justified to replace a dispersive soil with a non-dispersive one, there fore stabilization of a dispersive soil in one way or another is indispensable and unavoidable. throughout this rese...

The authors evaluated the effectiveness of ReJeX-iT@ AG-145, Mesurola, activated charcoal, lime, and fipronil to reduce homed lark damage to lettuce seeds and seedlings. In Experiment 1, homed larks consumed significantly more feed mixture (50:50 grains and lettuce seed) than untreated clay-coated lettuce seed in a three-day choice-test. In Experiment 2, where clay-coated lettuce seed was treat...
