A direct shear apparatus is described which could be used to study the strength of partly saturated soils under controlled conditions. The principle this device described, and test results are presented discussed. With apparatus, it also possible determine effect on a change in solute suction.
In this study, four different plastic materials usually used in the agricultural sector (polystyrene film (PS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), low-density (LDPE) and linear (LLDPE)) were subjected to abiotic treatments, including photo-oxidation (ultraviolet e-beam radiation) thermochemical enhance polymer degradation. The extensive use of these polymers leads large amounts waste generation, small pieces, known as microplastics, which affect quality environment, soil fertility quality....
The European Union (EU) advocates for a sustainable agricultural model with reduced synthetic fertiliser use. This study compares different high-P organo-mineral pellet fertilisers (OMFs) and their effects on crop yield. A trial was conducted under controlled conditions in ryegrass (Lollium perenne L.) pots fertilisation strategies at sowing adjusted doses of P (120 kg ha−1) N (200 ha−1). Pellets were developed from compost enriched bone meal (OMF-BON), struvite (OMF-STR), monoammonium...
In this study, several composting strategies such as the use of semipermeable geotextile covers and biochar an additive were investigated to improve olive mill wastewater (OMW) biodegradability mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during industrial-scale composting. addition, final characteristics compost obtained its marketable value also assessed. For purpose, four different co-composting mixtures prepared with OMW main ingredient, two types manure (cattle goat manure) bulking agents...
The floating system is a successful strategy for producing baby leaf vegetables. Moreover, compost from agricultural and agri-food industry wastes an alternative to peat that can be used as component of growing media in this cultivation system. In study, we experimented with three composts containing tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), leek (Allium porrum grape (Vitis vinifera and/or olive (Olea europaea L.) mill cake residues, which were the main (75/25 volume/volume) (GM1, GM2 GM3) evaluate...
Composts of spent mushrooms substrates can be an alternative for the partial replacement peat as growing media in horticulture. Three mature composts from Agaricus bisporus (Ag), Pleurotus ostreatus (Pl), and 70% Ag:30% Pl (AgPl) production were used components media, at a 1:4 compost:peat ratio red baby leaf lettuce. They showed higher yields, between 3 7 times more than that itself, even under pressure plant pathogen Pythium irregulare. AgPl suppressiveness (50%) against irregulare Ag-...
Anaerobic digestion of agro-industrial and livestock waste generates considerable digestate volumes that are important sources nitrogen (N). However, on some occasions, the high concentrations N present in digestates may represent an obstacle to its use locally as fertilizer, since it can cause environmental impact (EC, 2000). This study analyzes efficiency gas-permeable membranes (GPM) recovery ammoniacal (NH4+) swine manure (SM, Control) three generated from anaerobic co-digestion mixtures...
Zusammenfassung. Ziel der seit 1997 im Becken von Sarliève, am Fuß des Oppidums Gergovia (Puy-de-Dôme) durchgeführten Studien ist es, die wechselseitigen Beziehungen zwischen Mensch und Umwelt über einen langen Zeitraum aus einem systemischen interdisziplinären Blickwinkel zu betrachten. Die Untersuchungen beziehen sich auf ein Niederschlagsgebiet mittlerer Größe in einer Region eminenter geschichtlicher Bedeutung. Drei Untersuchungsachsen wurden definiert: •die Analyse Entwicklung Bereich...
Material shortages in composting may pose limits or logistical problems certain regions, which can be addressed with inert and reusable wastes. Very little research has been conducted on the subject of using alternative synthetic wastes as structuring agents to improve process parameters. The present work aimed evaluate use used tennis balls (TB) an bulking agent. Composting was carried out industrial plant a ternary mixture olive mill waste, solid fraction dewatered pig slurry, urban...
In the study of environment / societies relationship in mountain milieu, palynology is now positioned as an unavoidable discipline, offering possibility approaching long period anthropisation process. A critical examination development this discipline relation to problem can be carried out on basis Pyrenean example. While acquired elements are numerous, they not systematically phase with new demands required by a scientific context that resolutely turned towards interdisciplinary approach....
This work evaluates the effect of agricultural plastic waste (APW) in two particle sizes, microplastic and film debris, subjected to a pre-treatment by exposure UV-C, development vermicomposting process. Eisenia fetida health status metabolic response vermicompost quality enzymatic activity were determined. The environmental significant this study is mainly related how can affect presence (depending on type, size and/or if it partially degraded) not only biological process organic...
