The synergetic effect of four octaphenyl polyoxyethyienes (TX) on low temperature flotation of scheelite at 9–11 ◦C was investigated through flotation experiments, and the adsorption mechanism was studied by way of surface tension, zeta potential, and adsorption measurement. The results show that the presence of the four octaphenyl polyoxyethyienes can improve scheelite flotation in a low conce...

The PVL springs are used for both domestic and agricultural purposes. seepage from the has resulted in producing a large expanse of wetlands is therefore intensively use dry season farming. aim this study was to determine hydrogeological, hydrochemical characteristics, origin their suitability irrigation. hydrogeology determined by field mapping. physico-chemical parameters were laboratory meth...

An experiment was conducted to study the effects of feeding growing pigs a diet low in selenium (Se) and vitamin E (E) with and without supplementation of various levels of Se and/or E on tissue Se and serum tocopherol concentrations. Nine of 10 pigs fed the unsupplemented cull pea diet had lesions attributed to a Se-E deficiency and eight of these pigs died during the 135-day experiment. No de...

We investigated a method for producing granulated boehmite (BE) by using an organic binder and measured its phosphate-ion-adsorption capacity. BE was granulated using polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and its structure was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses. The properties of granulated BE such as specific surface area, mean pore diameter, pore volume, ...

In a previous report (I) it was demonstrated that chicks receiving purified rations low in nicotinic acid grew poorly and developed a typical chick blacktongue. The occurrence of these symptoms was prevented by the addition of nicotinic acid to the ration. This paper presents further studies on this deficiency and gives data on the activity of several nicotinic acid esters, as well as studies o...

ABSTRACT- In recent years, intensive drought has caused a severe yield reduction in rain-fed trees. Increasing runoff of low amount rainfall can be used to provide partial water requirement of rain-fed trees. To achieve this objective, some strategies including gravel removal (G), rill construction across to slope (R) and applying of baking soda (S) and their effects on runoff, rainfall infiltr...

Ascertaining water quality for irrigational use by employing conventional methods is often time taking and expensive due to the determination of multiple parameters needed, especially in developing countries. Therefore, constructing precise adequate models may be beneficial resolving this problem agricultural management determine suitable classes optimal crop yield production. To achieve object...

Comparative efficacy of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) crude powder and salinomycin sodium on the occurrence of coccidiosis and growth performance of broiler was evaluated. A total of 90, day-old chicks were randomly divided into six groups. From first day onward, ration was supplemented with 1, 2 and 3 % turmeric powder in groups 2, 3 and 4, respectively, group 1 received salinomycin sodium @ 12 ...

With a mean precipitation rate, much lower than that of the world, Iran is among the countries that face severe water challenges. The present study has dealt with the evaluation of hydrochemistry of Faryab spring water in Hormozgan Province, Iran. Four different composite water samples have been analyzed to detect major anions, cations, total dissolved solids, electrical conductivity, pH, and s...

Although salinity and sodicity are worldwide problems, information on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agricultural salt-affected soils is scarce. The CO2–C N2O–N were quantified three zones intertwined within a single U.S. northern Great Plains field: highly productive zone (electrical conductivity with 1:1 soil/water mass ratio [EC1:1] = 0.4 dS m–1; sodium adsorption [SAR] 1.8), transition...
