in order to effects of fertilizer source and intercropping ratios on macronutrients concentration and uptake of fenugreek and black cumin, a factorial experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications at shahrekord university research farm in 2013. sole cropping of fenugreek (f) and sole cropping of black cumin (b) and three intercropping ratios (f:b 2:1, f:b ...

introduction: arsenic is a highly toxic metalloid in group 15 of periodic table. the information on environmental behaviour of arsenic, however, is still scarce. contamination of soils and water with arsenic and antimony due to their widespread industrial application and mining activities has raised serious environmental concerns. nearly all arsenic-contaminated soils results from human activit...

New irrigation methods under different nutritional element supplies for maize production was designed and tested for evaluate quantitative and qualitative parameters by split-plot arrangement according complete randomized block design with three replications. Different Irrigation regimes was belonged to main plots (Conventional furrow irrigation: CFI or A1, Alternate furrow irrigation: AFI or A...

OBJECTIVES While maintenance of both phosphorus concentration and nutritional status is a major concern in managing haemodialysis patients, the interaction between these parameters is not well understood. The aim of this study was to assess whether or not nutritional index influences the association between phosphorus concentration and all-cause mortality. DESIGN A cohort study. SETTING The...

A feasibility study with three pre-conditioning times was carried out to examine the effect of anaerobic pre-treatment on phosphorus removal by aeration. The results showed that soluble phosphorus could be decreased from 120 mg L−1 to about 40 mg L−1 within one-day aeration. However, soluble phosphorus concentration was found not affected by pre-conditioning, but more pH dependent. Anaerobic pr...

The characteristics of anaerobic phosphorus release and anoxic phosphorus uptake were investigated in sequencing batch reactors using denitrifying phosphorus removing bacteria (DPB) sludge. The lab-scale experiments were accomplished under conditions of various nitrite concentrations (5.5, 9.5, and 15 mg/L) and mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) (1844, 3231, and 6730 mg/L). The results obtain...
