Lignocellulosic residues were tested as artificial log to mushroom production of Lentinula edodes. Three isolates of L. edodes were grown in substrates based on corn bog, and sawdust or bark of eucalypt, enriched with rice bran 20%. The biological efficiency (BE) were higher when corn borg and sawdust was used and the isolate UFV 73 was that presented well shaped mushrooms and higher productivi...

Production of agriculture and timber commodities leads generation of enormous quantity of wastes. Improper disposal of these agroindustrial wastes pollutes the environment. This problem could be reduced by adding value to them. Therefore, a study was carried out to analyse and compare the nutrients content of RS, RH, SD, and EFB of composts and crude humic substances; furthermore, their effect ...

Density-independent high moisture content measurement is required in actual production line. In this paper, the experimental results for high moisture content measurement using microwave free-space technique are presented. The method is based on a ratio of phase shifts at two microwave frequencies after propagating through a sample. The experiments were performed with three kinds of sawdust nam...

in this research, the removal of malachite green dye from textile wastewaters using polyaniline coated onto sawdust (pani/sd) has been investigated. ammonium peroxodisulphate was used as chemical oxidant for polymerization of polyaniline directly on the surface of sawdust. the effects of some important parameters such as ph, initial concentration, sorbent dosage, exposure time and temperature o...

An experiment was conducted to study the effects of different soil media on seed germination and seedling growth of peach during 2001 and 2002 in Orakzai Agency. Different soil media alone and in combination used for seed germination of peach were Farm Yard Manure, Saw dust, Canal silt, FYM + Sawdust, FYM + Canal silt, Sawdust + Silt and FYM + Sawdust +Silt. Different media showed non significa...
