The digestion method using a small proportion of a strong oxidizing agent perchloric acid seems to have been taken from a ’continuous flow method’, which was not designed for discrete digestion and analysis. There is considerable evidence that satisfactory digestion ofeven tMrly refractory substances can be achieved without the use of perchloric acid (1) and it is now usually recommended that p...

High levels of turbidity and suspended solids are the major disadvantages of aerated lagoons. Aerated lagoon effluent filtration was investigated by Horizontal Roughing Filter (HRF). Removal efficiencies were determined by examining total phosphorus (TP) and total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN) from HRF influent and effluent, simultaneously. HRF pilot system located on effluent pump station of Qom was...

the effect of levels of nitrogen on growth and nitrogen uptake patterns and grain protein quality of grain sorghum was investigated by two experiments which were conducted at pakdasht-tehran in 2003. in a completely randomized design with three replications, grain sorghum (sorghum bicolor (l.) moench) hybrid h-726 was grown under greenhouse conditions using water culture technique. the first ex...

1 This paper aimed to compare household waste, separated pig solids, food waste, pig slaughterhouse sludge 2 and green algae regarding processes ruling nitrogen dynamic during composting. For each waste, three 3 composting simulations were performed in parallel in three similar reactors (300L), each one under a constant 4 aeration rate. The aeration flows applied were comprised between 100 and ...
