this method estimate that Earth’s biosphere weighs about 560 billion tonnes C, with an annual productivity of 104.9 billion tonnes C/yr almost evenly split between terrestrial and marine environments, despite the oceans containing only 1.34% of all complex biomass. This total biomass is approximately 1/100,000,000 of the Earth’s solid mass (M⊕ = 5.97219 × 1021 tonnes) and 1/10,000 of the atmospheric mass (MA = 5.97 × 1015 tonnes) (Field et al., 1998; Groombridge & Jenkins, 2002; Gielen et al.,…

to that, we observe gold price on a rise owing to higher demand. Statistics indicates that India imported close to 1000 metric tonnes of gold last year and there has been an increase of 61% in import in the month of Apr-May 2015, just prior to the month of weddings. Statistics from WGC also suggest that around 22000 tonnes of Gold is owned by Indian house\hold and 600 tonnes of gold is used every year to produce jewellery. Although the demand for Gold in the month of July-August is…

temperature. Nitrogen was obtained from the air and therefore, some argon would be included in this simulation. On the other hand, hydrogen was obtained from the cracking of petroleum. The simulation process started where the feed (mass flow rate = 1256.859 tonne/day) which consisted of 24.75 %nitrogen, 74.25%hydrogen, and 1 %argon) at 25°C and 1 atm entered the compressor (labeled as COMPR 1 in the appendix 1). In COMPR1, the feed was being compressed to a pressure of 300 atm. This compressed…

Identification and genetic improvement of modern rice varieties needed for the understanding of nutrient efficiency and increasing of grain yield potential has played a major role in crop breeding programe. (or) Identification and genetic improvement of modern rice varieties needed for the understanding of nutrient efficiency and increasing of grain yield potential has taken a primary objective to plant breeders and biotechnologist. The Periodic appraisal of genetic improvement of rice, have…

Total Cost of MKG per tonne = 19275 Selling Price per tonne = 18100 Loss per kg = 1.175 APL and Pearson: The casual labour cost per tonne for KCPL is Rs300. So the net profit in case of APL would be = 1.5-0.3=Rs 1.2 per Kg For Pearson net profit would be= 3 – 0.3= Rs 2.7 per Kg Advantages: • KCPL can buy raw materials from the suppliers of APL now which is at reduced price. • KCPL can fully utilize its production capacity of 240 tonnes per month. MKG – 120 tonnes, Pearson-50 tonnes,…

There are 2 types of strengths that materials can be tested on: Comprehensive strength and Ultimate Tensile strength. Ultimate Tensile strength is measured by how much stress can a material withstand, while being stretched or pulled apart before breaking, while comprehensive strength is how much van the material resists while being pushed in (together). There is also a Yield Strength- the point at which the material starts to slowly break and cannot come back to it’s shape. Before the yield…

killing millions in the Soviet Union. Even though most historians say that the first step of the Five-Year Plan was more successful than the second, the results were astounding. “Coal - from 36 million tonnes to 130 million tonnes, Iron - from 3 million tonnes to 15 million tonnes, Oil - from 2 million tonnes to 29 million…

Almost 5 metric tonnes of my total carbon emissions can be attributed to my current diet and while I need to eat, so I cannot reduce this to number to zero, there are certainly actions that can be taken to shrink this figure lower. One of those actions is to give up meat…

food, so they are crushed to be made into either animal food or fertiliser. Fishing using nets is indiscriminate. Any fish which get in the way of the net will be caught in it if they are too big to get through the mesh. For every one tonne of prawns caught, three tonnes of other fish are killed and thrown away. 20,000 porpoises die each year in the nets of salmon fishermen in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and tens of thousands of dolphins are killed each year by tuna fishermen. How…

do we waste food? About 21 million tonnes of grain is wasted only because we do not have adequate storage facilities to keep it. A major chunk (40 percent) of the total fruit and vegetable produced in the country does not get to the Mandi on time due to lack of proper means of transportation. According to a report by the Indian Institute of Public Administration, in India every year 23 million tonnes of pulses, 12 million tonnes of fruits and 21 million tonnes of vegetables get spoiled due to…
