Numerical modeling of diazinon transport through inter-row vegetative filter strips
Article Abstract:
A numerical simulation model of pesticide runoff through vegetative filer strips (PRVFS) was developed as a tool for investigating the effects of pesticide transport mechanisms on VFS design in dormant-sprayed orchard. The PRVFS model is shown to be a beneficial tool for evaluating and analyzing possible best management practices for controlling offsite runoff of dormant-sprayed diazinon in orchards during the rainy season.

Biohydrogen production from starch in wastewater under thermophilic condition
Article Abstract:
A study is conducted to study the effects wastewater pH and starch concentration in wastewater on hydrogen production at the thermophilic condition of 55C. The maximum hydrogen yield of 92 ml/g of starch added was found at wastewater pH 6.0, and the maximum specific hydrogen production rate of 365ml was at wastewater pH 7.0.
