Adsorption characteristics of methylene blue onto agricultural wastes lotus leaf in bath and column modes
The adsorption potential of lotus leaf to remove methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution was investigated in batch and fixed-bed column experiments. Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Koble–Corrigan isotherm models were employed to discuss the adsorption behavior. The results of analysis indicated that the equilibrium data were perfectly represented by Temkin isotherm and the Langmuir saturation ...

Heterogeneous photodegradation of methylene blue with iron and tea or coffee polyphenols in aqueous solutions
Recently, we developed two new Fenton catalysts using iron (Fe) and spent tea leaves or coffee grounds as raw material. In this study, Fe-to-tea or Fe-to-coffee polyphenol complexes were successfully tested as heterogeneous photo-Fenton catalysts. The photodegradation efficiency of methylene blue solutions with Fe-to-polyphenol complexes was higher than that of homogeneous iron salts in the ...

Sorption, uptake and biotransformation of 17β‐estradiol, 17α‐ethinylestradiol, zeranol and trenbolone acetate by hybrid poplar
Hormonally active compounds may move with agricultural runoff from fields with applied manure and biosolids into surface waters where they pose a threat to human and environmental health. Riparian zone plants could remove hormonally active compounds from agricultural runoff. Therefore, sorption to roots, uptake, translocation, and transformation of three estrogens (17β‐estradiol, ...

Recreating a functioning forest soil in reclaimed oil sands in Northern Alberta: an approach for measuring success in ecological restoration
During oil-sands mining all vegetation, soil, overburden, and oil sand is removed, leaving pits several kilometers wide and up to 100 m deep. These pits are reclaimed through a variety of treatments using subsoil or a mixed peat-mineral soil cap. Using nonmetric multidimensional scaling and cluster analysis of measurements of ecosystem function, reclamation treatments of several age classes were ...

Worst Water Weeds #3: Duckweed
Duckweed makes our list of worst water weeds because it can be a huge nuisance to ponds and other still water bodies. There are many different species of this flowering floating aquatic plant, most of which are native, but at least one of which is exotic. What they all have in common, however, is that with the right conditions, they can become incredibly invasive and wreak havoc on other native ...

Filtration solutions that increased rapeseed oil production capacity by 50%
Background More than a decade ago, Farrington Oils, a leading producer of cold pressed rapeseed oil, installed the Amafilter® Versis® pressure leaf filter system at their plant, to remove impurities and clarify the oil. The system has proved to be highly effective, filtering 3-5% of undesirable particles and maintaining the quality of the final product. For the final processing steps ...

What are leaves and why are they important? - Case study
As a research scientist, you’ve dedicated your life to understanding and communicating details about plants that others haven’t considered in the past. Our infographic below focuses on the leaf basics: what leaves are, what they do, and why they are so important. Share it with your students, your friends and family, or just use it as a reminder of why you do what you do. Plus, ...

Light and moisture competition effects on biomass of red clover underseeded to winter wheat
Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) use as an underseeded cover crop in winter cereals has declined due to inability of growers to consistently establish uniform stands. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of light and soil moisture competition on underseeded red clover establishment and end of season dry matter production. Field trials were conducted at multiple locations in 2005 ...
