The goal of this investigation was to focus on the viability of synchronous aging of natural product waste with Aspergillus Niger TISTR 3063 co-societies producing ethanol. Additionally noted was how the aging temperature affected the yield of ethanol. Peels from pineapple and banana were used as...

The Council of Ministers issued a Royal decree number M/6 1421 H, corresponding to 2000 AD. The decree stated that, in Saudi Arabia, all wastewater should be treated at the tertiary level, without any discrimination (in terms of the type of reuse and discharge locations). The aim of this article is...

A dynamic mathematical model, based on the biochemical kinetic processes dominated in shallow free water systems was developed following the Activated Sludge Model (ASM) methodology. The model predicts plant mass and water uptake rate, BOD 5 and total nitrogen (TN) removal on a year round basis...

The idea of wastewater application on soils, returned to Western Hemisphere during 1950-60. Modern living requires an increased per capita use of water for coverage of individual needs. Nowadays, two main principles related to water management seem to gain the attention of both the scientific...

natural resources, is already experiencing the effects of climate change. The region’s climate is projected to become harsher, with increased average temperatures, intensity of rainfall events, and increased variability in space & time of monsoon rains being consistently projected for the region...

In this paper soil conventional tillage (CT) in two adiacent on-farm sites, hilly and plain fields, was carried out in comparison with direct-seeding + fertilizing at very low water content. The quality and quantity of work were evaluated through machine performance, fossil-fuel energy requirements...

Crop irrigation, especially in irrigation networks, often consumes larger quantities of irrigation water than necessary since most of the times irrigation is carried out empirically and not based on actual crop requirements. The aim of this work is the management of irrigation water though the use...

Water volume consumed for crop irrigation at the plain of Thessaloniki – northern Greece, was estimated and compared against the volume reported by the General Land Reclamation Organisation (G.L.R.O.) of Thessaloniki – Lagada. For the estimation of net crop water requirements, apart from crop...
