abstract lettuce is one of the best accumulators of heavy metals and nitrate between leafy vegetables. through this research, it was tried to decreased cadmium absorption with humic acid (ha) and studies the effect of ha on the accumulation and metabolism of nitrate. plants were grown in the peat/perlite and irrigated with hoagland solution with addition of cadmium (2 and 4 mg l -1) and ha (100...

a three-year field experiment was conducted under conditions of luvic chernozem soil. diversified nitrogen fertilization with 0, 60, 120, and 180 kg n ha-1, and microbial preparations improving soil properties were applied to potatoes, cv. ‘satina’, cultivation. n–no3 concentration in the soil profile (0–0.9 m) in autumn after potato harvesting fluctuated from 28 kg n ha-1 in the n0 treatment t...

nitrate pollutants increase the growth of algal bloom, resulting in fresh water eutrophication. the high nitrogen level in wastewater has become a growing concern, which has risen the necessity to develop efficient nitrogen removal techniques. biological denitrification, which is the reduction of oxidized nitrogen compounds like nitrate or nitrite to gaseous nitrogen compounds, is the most impo...

In order to study the effect of nitrite and nitrate on the performance of microbial fuel cell, a system combining an anaerobic fluidized bed (AFB) and a microbial fuel cell (MFC) was employed for high-strength nitrogen-containing synthetic wastewater treatment. Before this study, the AFB-MFC had been used to treat high-strength organic wastewater for about one year in a continuous flow mode. Th...

this study was performed to assess the effects of nitrogen fertilizer and vermicompost on qualitative and quantitative yield of chamomile ( matricaria chamomilla l.). it was conducted at the research fields of ran company located in firouzkouh, iran, in 2013. treatments were consisted of 1) control, 2) 100% nitrogen from urea, 3) 100% nitrogen from ammonium nitrate, 4) 75% nitrogen from urea an...

dissolved organic nitrogen (don) can react with disinfectants to produce numerous disinfectionbyproducts (dbps), particularly nitrogen-containing dbps (n-dbps), and produce serious adverse effectson public health. widely used biological processes in drinking water treatment can increase don in effluents,and enhance these ill effects. this study investigated don in a full-scale two-stage ozonati...
