Agricultural waste biomass generated from agricultural production and food processing industry are abundant, such as durian  peel, mango peel, corn straw, rice bran, corn shell, potato peel and many more. Due to low commercial value, these wastes are disposed in landfill, which if not managed properly may cause environmental problems. Currently, environmental laws and regulations pertaining to ...

Phosalone, malathion and diazinon were analyzed in corn oil using solid phase extraction (SPE)with lanthanum silicate as a new solid sorbent followed by gas chromatography with nitrogenphosphorus detection (GC-NPD). The efficiency of different eluents (methanol, dichloromethane,ethyl acetate, dichloromethane — ethyl acetate (1:1) and ethyl acetate — methanol (1:1)) werecompared for elution of o...

Ethanol produced from biomass, such as corn grain or sugar cane, is a renewable fuel that helps lessen dependence on petroleum-based fossil fuels. Currently, the majority of ethanol production in the United States utilizes corn grain, which supplied about 14 billion gallons of ethanol to the market in 2012. In the near future, corn supplies for ethanol are expected to be limited due to concerns...

Corn stover harvested for ethanol production reduces the amount of residue returned to the soil. Crop residues Corn (Zea mays L.) stover is a potential biofuel; however, removing on the soil surface are important in controlling wind this stover from the land may increase the risk of erosion and reduce soil organic matter (SOM). Land application of corn stover fermentaand water erosion (Lindstro...

Crop residues such as corn (Zea mays L.) stover are viewed as an abundant and inexpensive source of biomass that can be removed from fields to produce bioenergy. Assumptions include that with minimum or no-tillage farming methods, there will be no deleterious production or environmental effects. A long-term field study was established in eastern Nebraska, USA, to compare the switchgrass managed...

this study was conducted under cold temperate climate condition in khorasan during 2006-2008 growing seasons to determine the suitable wheat-based double cropping systems for increase nitrogen agronomic efficiency. a randomized complete block design in split-split plot arrangement with three replicates was used. main plots were crop rotation with five different rotations including wheat:wheat, ...
