Beet pulp as component of cattle feed can be processed in different way. Tis study was performed to characterize the physical properties of so called fine beet pulp (FBP); normal beet pulp (NBP) and pelleted beet pulp (PBP). The following parameters were determined: bulk density, kinetics of hydration, functional specific gravity (FSG), water holding capacity (WHC), soluble dry matter and intri...

the high pressure behavior of the structural and electronic properties of kc1 is studied with use of the density functional pseudopotential method within local-density approximation. atzero pressure, the rocksalt phase is found to be lower in energy than cscl structure. however, we predict a phase transition into csci structure at a pressure of about 1.5 gpa. the calculated ground state propert...

In this study, the effect of some processing parameters on bulk density, particle density, particle size and some of powder reconstruction properties such as dispersibility, Wettability and water solubility index of spray dried barberry (Berberis vulgaris) juice powders were investigated. A Pilot Spray Dryer (Two- Flow nozzle, counter- current, one cyclone) was employed for the spray d...

The superficial strata of ground have been perennially exposed to the action of natural agents such as heat, cold and water. However, grazing agent was not different from them when soils were investigated from temperate rangelands of Kashmir and caused the soil compaction, soil structure degradation and loss of soil organic C and C/N ratio. Soils from three grazing intensities were investigated...

Nowadays, applying soil amendments is one of the most important ways to cope with water shortages and improve soil physical properties. In this regard, a greenhouse experiment was conducted to study the effect of different levels of irrigation water and wheat straw biochar on physical and chemical properties of a sandy loam soil, after harvesting faba bean. The experiment was performed with 5 b...

as a first step towards mechanization related to any product, including date fruit, it is necessary to have comprehensive information about the product. physical and mechanical properties are needed for the design of post harvest machinery and equipment. the objective of this study was to determine and compare some physical properties such as dimension, mass and volume, particulate density, pit...

the present study aimed at estimating the amount of carbon storage and its relationship with other physical and chemical soil properties in four land-use systems including intact, protected, exploited and garden-uses areas in the northern zagros region in west azarbaijan province, iran. thirty sample plots were identified and within each plot, soil samples were taken in each land use and each s...
