background: in the recent years, eutrophication has become a serious challenge for many of the water ecosystems. it has affected the environmental and economical aspects of the anzali wetland, which is known as one of the significant ecosystem. due to the increase of the nutrient loadings from the industrial, agricultural and human activities, the wetland’s health is faced many serious problems...

high levels of turbidity and suspended solids are the major disadvantages of aerated lagoons. aerated lagoon effluent filtration was investigated by horizontal roughing filter (hrf). removal efficiencies were determined by examining total phosphorus (tp) and total kjeldahl nitrogen (tkn) from hrf influent and effluent, simultaneously. hrf pilot system located on effluent pump station of qom was...

the total nitrogen content of three barley cultivars: cehada capa (resistant at 25ac), cl 1243 (resistant at 5°c) and rika 1 (susceptible at all temperatures) to puccinia hordei was determined and compared in healthy and infected plants at 5° and 26°c. the results indicate that the total nitrogen content of cv. cehada capa leaves was greater than that of cl 1243 and rika 1 and that of cl 12...

As a preliminary to the consideration of automated, or more correctly mechanized, methods for the determination of total organic nitrogen the discussion of some general aspects of nitrogen determination is illuminating. There are at least four recent reviews, for example those by Bradstreet (1965), Fleck & Munro (I965), Jacobs (1965), and Munro & Fleck (1969), of the determination of nitrogen f...

meat products, especially fish meat, are very susceptible to lipid oxidation and microbial spoilage. in this study, first, gas chromatography mass spectrometry (gc-ms) analysis of zataria multiflora essential oil (zeo) components was done and then two concentrations of zeo, (1% and 2%) and two concentrations of grape seed extract (gse), (0.5% and 1%) were used in carboxymethyl cellulose coating...

plants have noticeable effects on soil resources distribution and its biochemical processes, and organic materials are naturally much more in the understory soil as compared to open areas. vegetation as one of the soil formation factors is not always an independent variable, so that the soil and vegetation can have interaction. the present study was conducted to investigate the effects of hedys...

an aquaculture system can be a potentially significant source of antibacterial compounds and ammonia in an aquatic environment. in this study, the removal of total ammonia nitrogen and florfenicol antibiotic from synthetic aqueous wastewater was assessed by applying a commercial tfc (thin film composite) polyamide nanofilter. the effects of ph (6.5-8.5), pressure (4-10 bar), concentration of to...
