Perlite is a type of volcanic glass that formed in nature as result the cooling magma lava and contains water droplets its structure. It raw material not harmful to health, environmentally friendly, easy use because it produced at high temperatures. The properties this enable be used many fields industry have factors determining study titled "Investigation Added Ceramic Body Properties". In art...

to investigate effect of calcium and growth medium on lilium (asiatic hybrid lilium bulbs “tresor” cultivar) and nutrients uptake, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted by three levels of calcium in nutrient solution (2, 4 and 6 mm*) and five growth media (100% perlite, 70% perlite + 30% cocopeat, 50% perlite + 50% cocopeat, 30% perlite + 70% cocopeat, 100% ...

This paper presents the study of a mixed porous media composed of expanded perlite and a nonwoven needle-punched geotextile used to reduce the suspended solids load and concentration in urban runoff. Laboratory procedures were designed to quantify the suspended solids removal efficiency and variation in time of filtration rate. Different grain-size distributions of expanded perlite, diverse sus...

The actual methods of perlite drying are established. radiation method is offered. A description an experimental installation for by the given. kinetic regularities this Graphical dependences moisture content on time, surface temperature and speed time described. influence initial perlite, value heat flux density from infrared emitter, thickness layer, fraction were determined. analysis resulte...

The present research set a goal of study applicability the expanded perlite obtained on basis – natural mineral Georgia, from adsorption removal Fe3+ ions aqueous solution. Adsorptive characteristics have been studied in process solution purification trivalent iron regard to adsorbent dosage, contact time, adsorbate concentration and pH. dependence degree adsorptive capacity above-mentioned par...

Galia-type muskmelons are the leading melon for consumer choice in Europe. The melon generally sells for U.S. $2 to $4 each and although Galia is currently found in some United States markets, it does not always possess the high quality consistent with that found in European markets. Achieving constant, high quality production has not been possible under normal field production in Florida, but ...

The risk of global water crisis is becoming more evident due to the increase in overall urban population and reduction freshwater availability. Treated greywater using greenwall technology was identified as a potential method produce for non-potable applications. filtering media acts growing plants filtration medium. In this study, pollutant removal efficiency environmental impacts associated w...
