Electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) has been used to characterize the electronic structure of charcoal phases at the nanoscale, thus demonstrating that the technique can be applied to environmental science. Activated charcoal is extensively used to remove pollutants from liquid and gaseous sewage. It is mainly obtained by activation of coke or charcoal produced from ligneous precursors. Th...

Salam plant (Syzygium polyanthum) can grow in marginal soils, such as soil contaminated with used oil. The planting of salam the application cow manure and husk charcoal is expected to reduce bad impact engine oil pollution. This study aims analyze response growth obtain information on optimal dose increase a concentration 60 ml/1 kg soil. factorial completely randomized design two factors anal...

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is a fruit plant that has long been known and become commodity high economic value trade between countries. Vegetative propagation technique an alternative to reproduce this type of plant. This study aims to: 1) Determine the concentration IBA (Indole Butyric Acid) which affects growth mango shoot cuttings L.). 2) Knowing planting media affect 3) To determine interac...

charcoal rot, caused by macrophomina phaseolina, is one of the most important diseases of sunflower in golestan province. host resistance may be the only feasible method to manage this disease. accordingly, the resistance of 18 varieties of common recommendations for the region in the form of a randomized complete block design (rcbd) against isolates of m. phaseolina was assessed. statistical a...

An efficient in vitro protocol for plant production of North American ginseng has been established. The pretreatment of cotyledon explants with 1.0 M sucrose at 4◦C resulted in an improvement of embryo quality and, combined with a higher sucrose content (7%) in induction medium, improved the embryogenesis frequency from 40% to 75% and the number of embryos per explant from 10 to 21. The frequen...

Charcoal fragments from five historic campsite locations in the Galápagos Islands were identified and radiocarbon dated to investigate postulated early human presence in the archipelago, historic fuel wood collection patterns and the resultant impact on native vegetation. A variety of taxa and fuel types were revealed to be present in the charcoal assemblages, indicating geographically driven r...

Production and properties of charcoal from four years old Acacia assak, A. negrii, A. seyal, A. karroo, A. ampliceps, A. stenophylla and A. salicina grown in the Experiments and Research Station, College of Agriculture, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia were studied. The first three species are indigenous while the others are exotic. 21 trees were felled and disks of 20 cm each from th...

OBJECTIVE To inspect cigarettes with a triple granular filter for charcoal granules on the cut filter surface and, if present, to determine whether the charcoal granules on the filter are released during smoking. DESIGN 400 Lark cigarettes in 20 packs were examined individually by each of three investigators for the presence of charcoal granules on the cut surface of the cellulose acetate fil...
