Densification of the feeds could be a solution to feedstock deficiency for biogas plants and ultimate option for waste management. This paper deals with development of a environmentally and farmer’s friendly technology for sustainable use of waste,through densification and development of a package of integration of nutrients, alternate waste and binder etc with cow dung for biogas plant. The la...

Indoor air particulate (PM) exposure is several folds more dangerous than  outdoor air  owing to burning of different materials. Burning biomass emits toxic fumes that are found to be associated with  numerous health problems  such as respiratory diseases, etc. In our study area,  approximately 80% of the population of Chhattisgarh state, central India use biomass  such as wood, and cow dung as...

Cow dung is a valuable source of manure to improve soil quality. This study aims enhance the quality by decreasing diesel contamination in through vermicomposting cow and nanoparticles ZnO. Using powder made from dung, zinc ions may be easily converted into ZnO nanoparticles. To increase soil, Eisenia fetida mixed with was used. These were characterized FT-IR, SEM, TEM. The impure soils examine...

To understand the dynamics of spatially structured populations, we need to know the level of movements at different spatial scales. This paper reports on Aphodius dung beetle movements at two scales: movements between dung pats within pastures, and movements between pastures. First, I test an assumption common to many recent models of spatially structured populations – that the probability of a...

background: dung beetles of coleoptera associated to undisturbed cattle droppings in pastures present great diver sity and abundance. dung beetles also play an important role for transmission of some helminthes to human and cat tle. this study was made to survey the biodiversity and abundance of these beetles in ardebil province, western iran. methods: according to the field study all beetles a...

Mulberry (Moraceae) is the type of seed plant grown in deciduous trees and cultivated numerous temperate regions. Air layering technique propagation through cutting; wounding are often performed. This study was conducted with investigation air survival growth roots other parameters mulberry by using three different types composts. Vermicompost a nutritious natural fertilizer obtainable form mac...

Research on dung beetles is uncovering surprising insights into both the history of this ancient family of insects and the value of the ecological services many species provide. For one, some dung beetles are far older than scientists realized. An Australian and Czech research team found molecular evidence that the scarab beetle subfamily Scarabaeinae evolved 115 million to 120 million years ag...
