To control the quality of reverse osmosis (RO) product water and reduce operational costs and environmental impacts by increasing the system’s energy efficiency, it is necessary to identify the influence of process parameters on energy consumption and permeate water quality. This paper introduces a case study focused on the application of Design of Experiments (DOE) method in an industrial-scal...

Calf starter was offered to 40 calves in a plastic bucket or from a nipple bottle, and intake, growth, and selected blood parameters were measured. The nipple was designed with a large opening to allow feed particles to pass through the nipple during meals. Calves began the study at 7 d of age and were fed for 56 d. A commercially prepared calf starter was offered for ad libitum consumption fro...

this experiment was conducted to evaluation the effects of different levels of untreated and treated green grape leaf with urea on performance, egg quality traits and blood parameters of laying hens. in this experiment 192 hy-line (w-36) laying hens, 35 to 46 wk of age were divided in to 4 treatments with 4 replicates (12 birds per replicate) in a completely randomized design experiment. the tr...

Improvement of feed efficiency in pigs has been achieved essentially by increasing lean growth rate, which resulted in lower feed intake (FI). The objective was to evaluate the impact of strategies for improving feed efficiency on the dynamics of FI and growth in growing pigs to revisit nutrient recommendations and strategies for feed efficiency improvement. In 2010, three BWs, at 35±2, 63±9 an...

to evaluate antioxidant effects of tomato pomace in broiler diets contained full-fat linseed on the production index, energy and protein efficiency, 396 one-day old ross 308 broilers were randomly allocated to 36 cages for nine dietary treatments with four replicate. this experiment were carried out in a completely randomized design with 3*3 factorial arrangement with three levels of full-fat l...

the objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of male broiler chickens in the period from 21 to 42 days of age fed diets with increasing levels of sunflower meal (sm) supplemented with an enzyme complex (ec). a total of 1920 animals of the cobb strain were distributed in a randomized block design in a 4 × 3 factorial arrangement (four sm levels and three enzymes utilization types)...
