the influence of initial moisture content on wood decay at different levels of atmospheric oxygen concentration was studied. three fungi, coriolus versicolor (c. versicolor) a white rot, coniophora puteana (c. puteana) a brown rot, and chaetomium globosum (c. globosum) a soft rot, were chosen. the mycelia of the fungi were inoculated in to mini blocks of fagus sylvatica (beech) and pinus sy...

this paper reports a cfd modeling study on the possibility of using high temperature and low oxygen content exhaust gases as oxidant for combustion in an industrial furnace by a written computer program. under these conditions,the predicted results for the flow and heat transfer properties are compared with those under the several cases of conventional and highly preheated and diluted air combu...

We have shown recently, in fresh heparinized blood drawn from smokers and equilibrated with 95 per cent oxygen in vitro for periods exceeding 30 min, that the oxygen content determined by Van Slyke analysis is significantly lower than in non-smokers' blood. The findings, which we have noted briefly elsewhere (Gregory, Hulands and Millar, 1972), were obtained during investigation of the normal o...

Qualitatively, it is known that the reactants content within the catalyst layer (CL) is the driving moments for the kinetics of reaction within the CL. This paper aimed to quantitatively express the level of enhancement in electrical power due to enrichment in the oxygen content. For a given MEA, a flow field (FF) designer is always willing to design a FF to maximize the content of oxygen in al...

in this study the effect of nitrogen form and different oxygen levels on growth and development and macronutrients concentrations in lettuce plants was investigated. this investigation showed that sole ammonium application caused fresh and dry weight reduction of shoot and root in lettuce plant. but different oxygen levels had no effect on them. nitrogen concentration of shoot was higher in amm...
