In this paper, the effect of NaCl and Na2SO4 on the biodecolourization of reactive brilliant red K-2BP by a Halomonas sp. GYW (EF188281) was investigated in details. The decolourisation efficiency and the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) change were explored during the decolourization process. The results from sequencing batch tests showed that Na2SO4 influenced the decolourization efficienc...

salinity is one of the most brutal environmental stresses that hamper crop productivity worldwide approximately 10% of the total land surface is salt affected and about 10 million hectare of agricultural land is lost annually due to salinization and water logging. this study was conducted to determine the ion exchanges in halocnemum strobilaceum and halostachys caspica in saline conditions. the...

current research on effect of increasing concentrations (0 (control), 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 mm) of different salts including nacl and na2so4 on germination and initial growth phase of halostachys caspica were studied. the experimental design was completely randomized design with three replications. characters of percentage, speed and index of germination, seed healthy index, radicle, plumu...

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean crop with an edible seed that both contains high protein content and provides high quality protein with a balanced amino acid profile in embryonic tissues. Quinoa is a halophyte adapted to harsh environments with highly saline soil. In this study, four quinoa varieties were grown under six salinity treatments and two levels of fertilization, and t...

objective: salt stress is a world-wide problem and soil salinity is common in arid and semi-arid regions. this study was undertaken to investigate salt tolerance in salsola orientalis in laboratory and natural conditions and recognize the mechanisms that allow it to tolerate these conditions. methods: this study had two parts of greenhouse and natural habitats. the treatment solutions for salin...

The phase behaviour of two model multi-component salt-water mixtures (NaCl-KCl-H2O and NaCl-Na2SO4-H2O) was investigated for the application supercritical water desalination (SCWD). experimental investigation a two-step procedure starting with qualitative analysis followed by quantitative measurements. experiments served as screening step to visually inspect behaviour. results NaCl-KCl-H2O, sho...
