Citrus greening, more widely recognized as Huanglongbing (HLB), is caused by the bacterium Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus, has emerged as one of the most destructive threats to citrus production worldwide. Since 2019, this disease has ravaged citrus industries worldwide, destroying approximately 75% of orange and 85% of grapefruit production in affected regions. It severely stunts tree ...
Working with pipelines, especially large-diameter ones, is rarely straightforward. Access can be limited, trenching can be expensive, and full pipe replacement is often unnecessary. When only a short section of a pipe is damaged, a point repair using a packer can save both time and budget. This is where Pillow Packers come into play, a versatile, trenchless repair tool developed for just such ...
The John Holland Group and Sydney Water approached us to provide a solution for the treatment of all wastewater effluent produced by workers at the Upper South Creek Water Recycling ...
Prefabricated (prefab) steel structures are widely used in various industries due to their durability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of construction. However, like any other building, they require regular maintenance to ensure their longevity and optimal performance. Proper maintenance of prefab steel structures involves a series of regular inspections, cleaning, repairs, and protective measures ...
Plant growth regulators are inspired by a class of plant metabolites called plant hormones. They can be extracted from plants or chemically synthesized. Most plant growth processes can be affected by plant growth regulators, such as flowering, fruit formation, ripening, fruit drop, and defoliation. Plant growth regulators are widely used in agriculture and horticulture to obtain specific ...
When cultivating high-quality, healthy plants there are several things that you want to avoid in your grow room. One of these is condensation. To prevent condensation in your grow space, you first need to get to grips with Dew Point. It’s time to learn more about why dew point is so important. We’ll cover how to calculate dew point. We’ll also share how to dehumidify your grow ...
Giant duckweed usually has several roots (as many as nine) hanging underneath each leaf. The under-leaf surface of this species is dark red. Dotted duckweed Dotted duckweed (Landoltia punctate) is often confused with giant duckweed, but dotted duckweed is smaller, more shoe-shaped, and does not have a red dot on top. ...
Background More than a decade ago, Farrington Oils, a leading producer of cold pressed rapeseed oil, installed the Amafilter® Versis® pressure leaf filter system at their plant, to remove impurities and clarify the oil. ...
In a typical electrochemical experimental setup, the working electrode is not directly connected to the ground. This allows the use of a grounded potentiostat/galvanostat (PGSTAT) for the electrochemical research. However, there are times when electrochemists need to experiment with working electrodes that are intrinsically grounded (e.g., for water pipes, rebar in concrete, etc.). There are ...
Tire shredding is actually a typical way of preparing scrap tires for recycling or disposal. To dispose of tires anywhere, they must be cut into small chips. Additionally, the size necessary depends upon the state or region in which you live. Tire shredding is likewise employed to recycle tires crumb tires or tire mulch could be used to make surfaces on playgrounds, athletic tracks, and highways, ...
Site Summary: The natural attenuation of trichloroethylene(TCE) left high concentrations of 1,2-dichloroethylene (1,2-DCE) and vinyl chloride in soil and ground water at a printing company . The anaerobic conditions of the site induced reductive dechlorination of TCE by indigenous organisms. However, the conditions and indigenous organisms were incapable of completing the contaminant removal, ...

Since the installation of the magnetic separators, EcoVyn has reduced their waste by 94%. Technical information: Drawer Filter Magnets EcoVyn Ltd is at the forefront of PVC compounding and brings pioneering new technology to the market place. They offer one of the most advanced ...
The waste rubber recycling machine is used to make rubber waste into steel wire, carbon black, and fuel oil. These machines primarily adopt the entire process of pyrolysis technology along the way of rubber recycling. This is probably the most environmentally-friendly ways to discard tires and waste rubber.Here is a description of how the waste rubber recycling machine operates.A a processing ...
Flash flooding is a serious risk in Nairobi during the twice yearly rainy season. New developments increase the run off from extreme rainfall events and also restrict the downstream capacity for rivers and culverts. Devastating floods in 2015 affected Nairobi Airport’s ‘African Freight Services’ facility. The flooding had destroyed goods in storage and transit, as well as ...
Whether you’re part of a small team or working for a large organization, there are always ways to fine-tune your internal manufacturing processes—sometimes with very little investment. One of these investments is oil skimming. With one new solution, your team could see improved asset performance, less downtime, and ultimately, advanced efficiency. In this post, we look at five ways ...
The timely removal of leaf litter can reduce harmful phosphorus concentrations in stormwater by over 80 percent in Madison, Wisconsin, according to a recent U.S. ...
The amount of tissue the plant “decides” to expose to the environment is called Leaf Area. Using a Leaf Area Meter, such as the CI-202 Portable Laser Leaf Area Meter or the CI-203 Handheld Laser Leaf Area Meter, scientists and farmers can observe the ways in which plants are adapting to their environment. ...
Recently, we developed two new Fenton catalysts using iron (Fe) and spent tea leaves or coffee grounds as raw material. In this study, Fe-to-tea or Fe-to-coffee polyphenol complexes were successfully tested as heterogeneous photo-Fenton catalysts. The photodegradation efficiency of methylene blue solutions with Fe-to-polyphenol complexes was higher than that of homogeneous iron salts in the ...
