Fresh water source scarcity in arid and semiarid area is limitation factor for saline-sodic soil reclamation. The reusing of agricultural drainage and industrial wastewater are preferred strategies for combating with this concern. The objective of current study was evaluation in application of industrial sugar manufacture wastewater due to high soluble organic compounds in saline-sodic and sodi...

Fuzzy adaptive least-squares (FALS), a pattern recognition method recently developed in our laboratory for correlating structure with activity rating, was used to generate quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models on the carcinogenicity of organic compounds of several chemical classes. Using the predictive models obtained from the chemical class-based FALS QSAR approach, the ro...

Background & aim: In sustainable agriculture, organic fertilizers are considered as important alternatives for chemical ones and are of great importance in organic producing of medicinal plants. This study was conducted to study the effects of organic fertilizers on Cassia angustifolia Vahl in dry and subtropical climate.  Experimental: This study was carried out in Jiroft region, Ker...

All chemical compounds may undergo a variety of processes resulting from chemical, biological or photochemical reactions. Depending on the environmental compartment in which organic compounds are present (e.g. soil, benthic sediments, surface and ground waters), they can undergo slow changes resulting from different chemical, physical, biological or photochemical processes. The problem of inter...

The chemical composition of organic aerosols in the atmosphere is strongly influenced by human emissions. The effect these have on the environment, human health, and climate change is determined by the molecular nature of these chemical species. The complexity of organic aerosol samples limits the ability to study the chemical composition, and therefore the associated properties and the impacts...

24-hour samples of pm1 (submicron particles, aerodynamic diameters ≤1 μm) and pm2.5(fine particles, aerodynamic diameters ≤ 2.5 μm) were collected at a quasi-rural area in racibórz (1 january-30 june 2011). the samples were analysed for carbon (organic and elemental), water-soluble ions (na+,nh4 +, k+, mg2+, ca2+, cl-, no3 -, so4 2-) and concentrations of 21 elements with a carbon analyser (sun...

Organic fertilizers are generally thought to be an effective way to sustain soil fertility and plant growth. To promote the productivity of chrysanthemum, five sources of liquid organic fertilizers (L1–L5), as well as a chemical fertilizer, were applied at an early stage of the growth cycle to investigate their effects on plant growth. In the short-term pot experiment, the liquid organic fertil...
