Correlatiing Growth, Yield and Adoption of Urdbean Technologies
Get PDFABSTRACT in farmers' practices during 2008. The result revealed that even in case of lowest yield under FLD, the increase was recorded to be 43 per cent over the farmers' practice in the year 2005. The economic viability and profitability showed that the benefit cost ratio (B: C) was higher in the case of improved agro-technologies (FLD) with 2.60 as against 1.94 in farmers' practice (FP). The net return from improved agro-technologies (FLD) wa
Microbial growth reduction in sewage sludge by stirred ball mill disintegration and estimation by respirometry
Get PDFBACKGROUND: Excess biomass generation in wastewater treatment plants is an unavoidable byproduct of the
degradation process. Treatment and disposal of sewage sludge from wastewater treatment plants accounts for
about half or even up to 60% of the total operating cost. The present study focuses on the reduction of excess sludge
generation by engineering the microbes through mechanical energy inputs by means of stirred ball milling
