Bioremediation expense can be significantly reduced by the supplement of some less expensive alternative substrates (e.g., sludge cakes, cane molasses).
Acetate, sludge cake, and cane molasses were used as the primary substrates (carbon sources) in cometabolism and reductive dechlorination microcosms.
Results reveal that it is feasible and applicable to install a sludge cake or cane molasses biobarrier to clean up PCE contaminated aquifers.
Results indicate that sludge cake and cane molasses can serve as the diffusion sources of primary substrates, and enhance the reductive dechlorination of PCE under methanogenic processes.
In December, what we lacked in snow we made up for in blizzards of sugar: fudge, sugar cookies, fruit cake and candy canes.
Aguapanela ($4.95), a clear, golden brew made by dissolving cakes of unrefined cane syrup in hot water, is paired with a slab of semisoft cheese to nibble on the side or dunk for a melting, chewy spoonful.
Vinasse has been used primarily on ratoon cane and filter cake on plant cane and increased sugarcane yield resulted from the application of either finance or filter cake without detrimental effects on cane quality or the environment.
Application of nitrogen and press mud cake increased dry matter, and cane and sugar yields (Bangar et al. 2000).
Based on the chemical oxygen demand (COD) tests, approximately 28 and 248 mg of biodegradable COD can be released from 1 g of sludge cake and 1 g of cane molasses under anaerobic conditions, which have the potential to convert 70 and 620 mg of PCE to ethylene (ETH), respectively.
A gift basket offered by Gold Farms, an organic farm in Roosevelt, in western Monmouth County, is not your usual candy canes and fruit cake.
