In view of the fact that fumigation of ships, etc., with hydrocyanic gas has not, so far as I am aware, been introduced into India up to the present, this note has been compiled in the hope that it may be of some practical service to those interested in such matters. Through the kindness of Col. P. G. Stock, c.b., c.b.e., and Dr. M. T. Morgan of the Ministry of Health, in arranging an introduct...

U.S. exported lettuce, broccoli, asparagus, and strawberries oftenharborwesternßower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), a quarantined pest in Taiwan, and therefore require quarantine treatment. Fumigation with diluted pure phosphine at a low temperatureof 2 Cwas studied to controlwesternßower thrips and todetermineeffects on thequality of the treated produc...

Physiological functions of nitric oxide (NO) in plants are often investigated by using chemical NO donors (Feelisch, 1998; Floryszak-Wieczorek et al., 2006) or fumigation of plants with NO gas (Huang et al., 2004; Palmieri et al., 2008; Vitor et al., 2013; Frungillo et al., 2014; Kasten et al., 2016; Krasuska et al., 2016; León et al., 2016; Melo et al., 2016). Treatment with gaseous NO has the...

Reducing emissions is essential for minimizing the impact of soil fumigation on the environment. Water application to the soil surface (or water seal) has been demonstrated to reduce 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) emissions in soil column tests. This study determined the effectiveness of water application to reduce emissions of 1,3-D and chloropicrin (CP) in comparison to other surface seals under...

the request for natural gas attention to its adaption with environment and less pollution than the other fossil fuels has the highest growth in last decades. in result this energy has high geopolitical importance. iran with has about 2.18 percent of total world reserves, the largest in the world. but couldn't played important role in the natural gas geopolitics and even it hasn't in b...

Essential oils from the leaves of two species of the genus Ocotea that occur in the Atlantic Forest in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil, were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The acaricidal activity of these oils as well as 11 selected components and blends were evaluated in fumigation and residual contact tests against the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae). Sixty...

use of zinc and iron oxide are common in the desulfurization process from natural gas. in thisresearch, after determinations of the size and specifications through tem and xrd for each of the metaloxides, two different size ratios were used, 0.66 for zinc oxide and 0.142 for iron oxide. further, absorption of sulfur compounds in gas (hydrogen sulfide (h2s), carbonyl sulfide (cos), methyl mercap...

compressibility factor and viscosity of natural gasses are of great importance in petroleum and chemical engineering. to calculate the natural gas properties in the pipelines, storage systems and reservoirs, the exact values of gas compressibility factor and viscosity are required. a new method that allows accurate determination of compressibility factor and gas viscosity for all types of: swee...
