Members of the Surfrider Foundation, an environmental group, reminded residents that almost every municipal wastewater plant practices water reuse anyway, since discharged treated wastewater is reused downstream.
On-farm and processing plant practices, such as between-flock cleaning and decontamination of slaughter equipment, likely outweigh any impact from antimicrobial use on general Campylobacter contamination.
In current plant practice, Larox high-pressure filters are used to produce a filter cake containing 22 25% moisture.
It is arguable that progress in both fundamental understanding (modeling) and plant practice has been limited by the lack of instruments and sensors capable of functioning in operating flotation machines.
In this study, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, electron microprobe, X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy (including both XANES and EXAFS regimes) were employed to determine the mineralogical composition and local coordination environment of As in gold ores and process tailings from bench-scale tests designed to mimic a common plant practice.
The lawsuit, which was filed against the city, the Department of Environmental Protection, Synagro Technologies and its owner, the Carlyle Group, calls for the plants' practices to be investigated and improved upon.
PLANTING a tree is easier than it used to be, not from new technology in digging equipment but because new research into trees' responses to various planting practices has dispelled many myths.
PLANTING a tree has gotten a lot easier these days, not from new technology in digging equipment but because new research into trees' responses to various planting practices has dispelled many myths.
The four treatments were administered by the local farmers' traditional planting practices which included planting density, sowing, and the harvest time, as well as fertilizer application periods.
Urban trees are frequently planted with their root collars and structural roots buried well below soil grade, either because of planting practices, nursery production practices, or both.
If similar trials are contemplated in future to obtain accurate interspecies comparisons in the early years of plant growth, it is recommended that plant materials should be of a similar size at the time of establishment where possible and of similar physiological age, even though nursery and planting practices result in different sized materials being sold and planted.
