ISBN: 9783844300550 / Angielski / Miękka / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Reuse of materials has a naturally mandatory law. Recovery of materials and nutrients has been developed through phytotechnology by using plants. The process of plants to absorb, adopt, alter and remove contaminants from wastes to another medium is used the term phytotreatment. In practice, to utilize plant in the waste treatment, the plant must be maintained to stay alive and the plant species are non-human and animal consumption. Studies were mainly used high concentrations of organic matter containing wastewater and waterhyacinth. Nevertheless, the principles of methodology and results can...

Cleaner Production and Workplace Health and Safety
ISBN: 9783843394949 / Angielski / Miękka / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Environmental goals may be pursued narrow-mindedly with no attention paid to the workplace. This book examines combined approaches in cleaner production projects. It explores two main avenues. First, integration into the project specification. The planning tools in use by assistance agencies are examined and it is argued that a dilemma of rigour or relevance exists. Small companies are relevant to target but do not meet rigorous support criteria. Large companies need no help, but are attractive due to low project risk. Second, integration of activities at company level. For large...

Ecologically Important Microbes in Automobile Engines
ISBN: 9783844300918 / Angielski / Miękka / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As the usage of petroleum hydrocarbon products increases soil contamination with diesel and engine oil is becoming one of the major environmental problems. Bioremediation provides an effective and efficient strategy to speed up the cleanup processes. For this purpose our aim was to isolate some of the indigenous hydrocarbon degrading microorganisms and to do their mutational and molecular characterization. We could isolate some of the microorganisms i.e. Staphylococcus spp., and Corynebacterium spp. out of which Corynebacterium spp. had shown the maximum cell density when allowed to grow in...

Four Scenarios of Fish Finger Production from a Life Cycle Perspective
ISBN: 9783843359559 / Angielski / Miękka / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The fish finger has become a favourite food for many families and individuals. Few people, however, think about the background of their fish finger, the complex production and transportation systems that lie behind it. Consumers generally feel comfortable with food that does not resemble species from natural habitats, and it is not always the case that one thinks of possible effects of ones dinner on the biosphere. This study has taken a wider perspective at the fish sticks, and a closer look at the environmental effects that the fish fingers life cycles can have. This LCA study looks at...

Carbon Dioxide Storage in Geological Media
ISBN: 9783844305227 / Angielski / Miękka / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Among the alternatives CO2 storage in geological media has significant advantages. Experience and sophistication gained in mining and oil industry is a readily available infrastructure of knowledge, techniques and understanding. All the available methods may apply with a reasonable cost since terrestrial storage areas can be used by inland and seaside locations of emissions. However, it must be stated that available methods of geological storage, still, need elaborate researches. Since the global emissions of CO2 is expected to rise, depending on the industrial development and increase of...

Progressive Failure in Slopes Stability
ISBN: 9783844308297 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the stability analysis of earth slopes the simple computational methods, referred to the classical limit equilibrium approach, are not able to predict complex processes as progressive failure. Such a phenomenon can be studied only using procedures that are able to simulate the formation and development of a shear band in which plastic strains localise. From a computational point of view, this presents many problems, because the numerical analyses, carried out with local elasto-plastic models, are affected by a lack of convergence and the solution depends strongly on the mesh adopted. For...

Land-use impacts on water quality of the Bottelary River
ISBN: 9783844380125 / Angielski / Miękka / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. South Africa is a country which is experiencing freshwater challenges in term of water quality management (DWAF 2005, Ninham Shand & Arcus Gibb, 2001). The challenge in managing this natural resource is often due to an increaase in demand for water by a diversity of land use within the river catchment, which have impacts on water quality (Feng, 2005; Ma, 2005; Rui Li, 2005). The Bottellary River catchment in Cape Town and the Western Cape Province of South Africa is a true example of the impacts that land use types pose on the water quality in this area.

Recent Advances in Crop Protection
ISBN: 9788132207221 / Angielski / Twarda / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the recent years, the need to increase food production to meet the demands of rapidly increasing population from a limited land resource necessitated the use of intensive farming systems, with the inputs like narrow genetic base, high dose of fertilizers, pesticides, irrigation, monocropping, etc. which led to the development of diseases and pest. The effect of changing global climate, particularly the sharp increase in CO2 concentration, has increased the susceptibility of plants to pathogens and pests. Because of the chemicalization of agriculture, the age-old eco-friendly pest...

Durability of POFA Concrete
ISBN: 9783845402376 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book provides a comprehensive approach to deal with agro waste products that affect dramatically the environment in countries that produce palm oil. The use of Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) as a supplementary cementing material(SCM) not only works as a genuine idea to get rid of this environmental burden but also open the way to generate revenue for this industry. A complete study to investigate the effects of POFA on durability of high strength concrete was carried out and the presented findings suggest that POFA can be effectively used as SCM and there is a potential for marketing it...
