Two methods based on the principle of maximum entropy (POME), the ordinary entropy method (ENT) and the parameter space expansion method (PSEM), are developed for estimating the parameters of a four-parameter exponential gamma distribution. Using six data sets for annual precipitation at the Weihe River basin in China, the PSEM was applied for estimating parameters for the four-parameter expone...

Streptomycin is used in plant agriculture for bacterial disease control, particularly against fire blight in pome fruit orchards. Concerns that this may increase environmental antibiotic resistance have led to bans or restrictions on use. Experience with antibiotic use in animal feeds raises the possible influence of formulation-delivered resistance genes. We demonstrate that agricultural strep...

Membrane reusability determines the economic sustainability of separation process. However, membrane was deduced by antifouling properties, while actual reuse performance using palm oil mill effluent (POME) is rarely reported. This study investigates nano-Fe3O4/PVDF (PVDF1) for POME treatment. The chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solid (TSS) permeate, molecular weight cut off (MWCO...

The diet of free-ranging bears is an important dimension regarding their ecology, affecting behavior, population structure, and relation with humans. In Croatia, there has been no recent study on the natural food habits brown (Ursus arctos) or influence artificial feeding sites diet. During 2017, we collected 53 bear stomachs from in 2 regions Croatia—Gorski Kotar Lika—to assess Plants—Allium u...

A pre-culture stage is required to obtain robustly-dividing cells with high hydrogen (H2) production capabilities. However, a step-by-step process for biohydrogen scarcely reported, mainly from palm oil wastewater. Therefore, this study developed guideline find the best inoculum heat treatment conditions and implement selected using This used raw mill effluent (POME) POME sludge as substrate in...

The pomegranate is one of the most essential crop fruits in world. 5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA) regulates growth and development 5-year-old pomegranate. However, for plenty pome crops, conventional information on physio-chemical characteristics underlying 5-ALA limited. Therefore, this study, we applied four different concentrations treatments (0 mg L−1, 10 20 50 100 L−1), where 0 L−1 was consid...

Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is wastewater containing dissolved materials with concentrations above the threshold. Generally, POME processing in Indonesia uses an open pond system. It less efficient because it requires large areas and causing greenhouse gas effects. This research aims to improve processing, three methods were studied; bioremediation using enrich indigent lypholitics bacteria (...

Estimation of flood magnitude for a given recurrence interval T (T-year flood) at a specific location is needed for design of hydraulic and civil infrastructure facilities. A key step in the estimation or flood frequency analysis (FFA) is the selection of a suitable distribution. More than one distribution is often found to be adequate for FFA on a given watershed and choosing the best one is o...

In recent years, the green chemistry based-approach for synthesis of nanoparticles has shown tremendous promise as an alternative to costly and environmentally unfriendly chemically synthesized nanoparticles. this study, copper oxide (CuO NPs) were through a approach using water extract papaya (Carica L.) peel biowaste reducing well stabilizing agents, (II) nitrate trihydrate salt precursor. Th...

Odorous gaseous such as ammonia and hydrogen sulphide produced by anaerobic bacteria are emitted when palm oil mill effluent (POME) is treated via digestion. The Department of Environment (DOE) under the jurisdiction Air Division has proposed an odour emission limit 12,000OUm<sup>-3</sup> at source sample for Malaysian mills recently. objective this paper to investigate concentratio...
