Soil surveys with line-scanning platforms appear to have great advantages over the traditional methods used to collect soil information for the development of field-scale soil mapping and applications.These carry VNIR (visible and near infrared) spectrometers and have been used in recent years extensively for the assessment of soil fertility at the
Physical Activation of Wooden Chips and the Effect of Particle Size, Initial Humidity, and Acetic Acid Extraction on the Properties of Activated Carbons
In this Hojicha Roasted Green Tea research study, two different wooden biomasses (birch and pine) were thermally carbonized and steam-activated into activated carbons in a one-stage process.The effects of particle size and humidity (as received and oven-dried) on the properties, such as specific surface areas, pore volumes, and pore size distributi
Analysis of Model Predictive Control-Based Energy Management System Performance to Enhance Energy Transmission
A supervisory control system using Model Predictive Control (MPC) has been designed to evaluate the efficiency of wind and solar power and is consistent with the cost function in the supervisory MPC optimization problem.A two-layer Economic Model Predictive Control (EMPC) framework has been developed and has improved results such as cost reductions
INCIDENCE AND CAUSES OF CHICK MORTALITY IN INDIGENOUS CHICKENS UNDER THE FREE RANGE SYSTEM IN OGUN STATE, NIGERIA
A study Repellents into the incidence and causes of chick mortality among indigenous chickens was carried out in selected locations in Abeokuta, Ogun state Nigeria, between January and June 1992.The study involved 500 motherhens and 346 chicks raised under the free range management system.- The survey was conducted by means of oral interview, obser
Apoptosis at inflection point in liquid culture of budding yeasts.
Budding yeasts are highly suitable for aging studies, because the number Olives of bud scars (stage) proportionally correlates with age.Its maximum stages are known to reach at 20-30 stages on an isolated agar medium.However, their stage dynamics in a liquid culture is virtually unknown.We investigate the population dynamics by counting scars in ea
