8%), BA+HL (59-72.7%) and co-inoculation with three microbes BA+SA+HL (60-76.2%). Minimum percent disease index was recorded with RS (68.23%) and fallowed by individual microbes (Table 2). Maximum root length, plant height, plant biomass, number of fruits and fruits biomass were recorded in the co-inoculation of two microbes SA+HL with application method (M3), which was higher than all other microbial formulations (Table…
Biofuel Uses. It is a common misnomer that whenever term “biofuel” is prompted, it is somehow associated with use in automobiles, trucks and possibly planes. Whereas, due to diversity, biofuels have the capacity to replace all types of human energy needs from home heating to vehicle fuel and most importantly electricity generation. This has been explained below:-. (a) Transportation. Globally, transportation accounts for 25% of energy demand and consumes nearly 62% of fossil oil. Two-thirds of…
Cyclohexanol is a cyclic secondary alcohol of molecular weight 100.16 kg/kgmol that exist as an colorless, hygroscopic liquid. Cyclohexanol is produced on large scale. Mainly it is used in production of Caprolactum and adipic acid used in manufacture of nylon-6 and nylon-66 (Monick, 1968) 3.1 Methods of production: 3.1.1 Liquid phase oxidation of cyclohexane: 1. The liquid-phase air oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanol is the most important commercial route for the cyclohexanol production.…
Nigeria has one of the lowest electricity generation per capita rate in the world resulting 6 in shortage of power supply and heavy dependence on fossil fuels (79 % of total). At present, 7 only 10% of rural households and 50% of the country’s total population have access to national 8 power grid electricity. Separate researches conducted by Energy Commission of Nigeria and 9 Global Energy Network Institute (GENI) have concluded that 100% stable power supply from 10 renewable energy is possible…
Chapter one 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Background information and rationale Maize (Zea Mays L.) is one the most important cereal crop in sub-Saharan Africa and Zimbabwe. According to FAO statistics the total amount of maize produced worldwide is estimated at 785 million tons and United States of America is the largest producer and contributing 42%, Africa produces 6.5% with Nigeria being the largest African producer with nearly 8 million tons, followed by South Africa. Based on area and production,…
What is technology and how does in work with our world? Technology is a set of different, ideas, processes, methods, and skills that develop into a service that can either provide or attain a service. The earliest signs of technology are when humans began developing simple tools from natural resources found in the environment. Over time, this scientific innovation has brought cars, mobile phones, electricity, and other inventions that were brought to life that we use in our everyday lives.…

Animals other than lemmings include the Arctic tern, ermine, reindeer, mountain goat and musk ox. There is more biomass and, as stated in the introduction, more biological production, meaning procreation or reproduction, in water than on land. Vegetation is also quite scarce, though not as much so as animal populations. Flora only blooms for days to weeks, but at a…
the ADM1 for the calculation of the variables include 10 DE to model the evolution of soluble matter concentrations in the liquid phase and two DE to model inorganic carbon and inorganic nitrogen levels in the liquid phase. Particulate matter and biomass concentrations in liquid phase are described…
a 235 year supply of coal if it continues using coal at the same rate at which it uses coal today), it produces more than 1,000 jobs in the U.S alone, theres no other energy source that can fill coals role in providing energy to the world (Solar, Biomass, nuclear, oil, hydro, wind energy all combine cannot do what coal can do), coal provides 56% of the electricity used in the entire known world each day.It is estimated that there is nearly 542 trillion cubic feet of solid coal in the earth…
