China encounters heavy air pollution caused by coal consumption. and the EU aim to decrease greenhouse gas emissions. Shifting biogas from residues contributes solving both problems. This study assesses China's potentials related water footprints (WFs) compares results with WFs for EU. Starting a literature review on potentials, it analyzes information resulting in calculation methodology, its ...

Tetracyclines (TCs) are broad-spectrum antibiotics that are used widely in veterinary medicine. The present study was carried out to trace the residues of oxytetracycline (OTC) and tetracycline (TC) in pasteurized milk that is marketed in Tehran with the use of a High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). Ninety milk samples were collected during five sequential days from the products of si...

the application of organic sorbents for removing heavy metal from water, replacing expensive sorbents, is particularly appropriate for developing countries. to investigate the efficiency of some organic sorbents in removing of cd2+ from aqueous solution, an experiment was conducted with three organic sorbents (sunflower stalks, apple and grapevine pruning residues) and 11 initial concentration ...

Stored unmilled rice (paddy), milled rice and maize treated with radiolabelled malathion formed bound 14C residues. After 3 months of storage, the bound residues in the grains treated with 10J.Lg/g malathion accounted for 10.8, 6.5 and 13.3% of the applied dose in paddy, rice and maize respectively. After 6 months, the corresponding values of bound residues were 14.2, 4 and 17.7% respectively. ...

In this assay, edible cattle tissues from local markets of Ardabil, a Province of Iran, were examined for residues of tetracycline antibiotics (tetracycline, oxytetracycline and chlortetracycline). In total, 110 samples of triceps, gluteal muscle, diaphragm, kidney and liver were randomly obtained from the local markets of the city of Ardabil. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) and high-performance l...

Crop residues are sustainable feedstock for bioenergy production. The gross crop residue potential generated in India is 696.38 million tonnes/year. Cereal crops generate about 364.27 tonnes/year of residues. (rice, wheat, sorghum, pearl millet, maize), sugarcane and horticultural (coconut, areca nut, banana) found to have immense generation potential. 209.69 available as surplus can be explore...
