Control of Agricultural Pests
All over the world a huge effort is being made to fight these pests and now new weapons have been added to man's armoury in this battle. These are radioactive isotopes and radiation sources. Their contribution to the control of agricultural pests is not yet precisely calculable, but several promising lines of attack have been opened up and some concrete r e sults already achieved. The main valu...
متن کاملPreparation and Characterization of Nano- Structured Materials from Oil Palm Ash: a Bio- Agricultural Waste from Oil Palm Mill
Oil palm ash (OPA), a bio-agricultural waste from oil palm mills, was subjected to high-energy ball milling for 30 h and was converted into a nano-structured material. The nano-structured OPA was characterized for its particle size and crystallinity index by using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis. The crystallite size obtained from TEM and XRD was foun...
متن کاملBiodiesel fuel production from soybean oil waste as agricultural bio-resource
The study was conducted to investigate the optimum conditions for biodiesel formation from pure (virgin) soybean cooking oil (PSCO) and waste soybean cooking oil (WSCO) coming after alkaline transesterification process in combination with methanol, ethanol and 1-butanol. Some important variables such as volumetric ratio, types of reactants and catalytic activities were selected to obtain a high...
متن کاملCo-Production of Activated Carbon and Bio-Oil from Agricultural Residues by Molten Salt Pyrolysis
The feasibility of co-producing activated carbon and bio-oil from rice stalk through molten salt pyrolysis is reported in this work. The results indicated that: (1) mixed ZnCl2-KCl molten salt could considerably improve the solid and liquid yield as well as the ratio of H2 and CH4 selectively (compared to the traditional ZnCl2 method), (2) an increase of pyrolysis temperature had the same impac...
متن کاملNano Bio Pesticide to Constraint Plant Destructive Pests
Insects-pest is animal populations, which occurred in every possible environment with a varied number of species. The several insects are vectors of different diseases, and cause damages to crop plants. These have been affecting economy and the yield of crop plant and at national and international market. The crop yield losses caused by insects in agriculture, several chemicals have been applie...
