Effect of irrigation frequency on rose flower production and quality
(2006)A better understanding of the effects of irrigation frequency on flower production and quality of rose plants can help to propose optimal irrigation scheduling. For this purpose, experiments were conducted on a soilless ... -
Effect of macronutrients and of anaerobic digestate on the heterotrophic cultivation of Chlorella vulgaris grown with glycerol
(2022)The aim of this work was to investigate the kinetics of the heterotrophic growth of Chlorella vulgaris as a means of producing bio-oil for biodiesel production. Glycerol was used as the sole organic carbon substrate. ... -
Effect of nitrogen concentration, two-stage and prolonged cultivation on growth rate, lipid and protein content of Chlorella vulgaris
(2019)BACKGROUND: The effects of the initial nitrogen concentration, as well as of two-stage and prolonged cultivation on the growth rate, lipid and protein content of Chlorella vulgaris were examined. Additionally, a kinetic ... -
Energy and Exergy-Based Screening of Various Refrigerants, Hydrocarbons and Siloxanes for the Optimization of Biomass Boiler–Organic Rankine Cycle (BB–ORC) Heat and Power Cogeneration Plants
(2022)The cogeneration of power and heat was investigated for Biomass Boiler–Organic Rankine Cycle (BB–ORC) plants with the characteristics of typical units, such as the 1 MWel Turboden ORC 10 CHP. The thermodynamic analysis of ... -
Enterobacter sp. AA26 gut symbiont as a protein source for Mediterranean fruit fly mass-rearing and sterile insect technique applications
(2019)Background: Insect species have established sophisticated symbiotic associations with diverse groups of microorganisms including bacteria which have been shown to affect several aspects of their biology, physiology, ecology ... -
Exploiting pre- and post-harvest metabolism in sweet sorghum genotypes to promote sustainable bioenergy production
(2020)Sweet sorghum's high yielding ability, low-input demands and tolerance to stresses, render it highly suitable for syrup and bioenergy production. Exploiting its biomass, however is hampered by the seasonality of its ... -
Finite element modeling to expand the UMCCA model to describe biofilm mechanical behavior
(2005)In order to understand the influence of biofilm's physical and microbiological structures on its mechanical behavior, a finite element model that describes the structural mechanics of a composite solid is linked to the ... -
Growth and biomass productivity of kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus, L.) under different agricultural inputs and management practices in central Greece
(2010)The growth and biomass productivity of kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus, L.) cultivars Tainung 2 and Everglades 41 were determined under three irrigation applications (low: 25%, moderate: 50% and fully: 100% of maximum ... -
Hexavalent chromium availability and phytoremediation potential of Cichorium spinosum as affect by manure, zeolite and soil ageing
(2017)Cichorium spinosum (spiny chicory) is a wild edible vegetable, and a possible suitable species for Cr(VI)-phytoremediation. There are three approaches for altering Cr(VI) dynamics: reduction to Cr(III) by organic matter ... -
Modulation of hexavalent chromium toxicity on οriganum vulgare in an acidic soil amended with peat, lime, and zeolite
(2018)Dynamics of chromate (Cr(VI)) in contaminated soils may be modulated by decreasing its phytoavailability via the addition of organic matter-rich amendments, which might accelerate Cr(VI) reduction to inert chromite (Cr(III)) ... -
Nitrogen fertilization effect on biomass yield of six different sorghum bicolor varieties
(2020)Sorghum belongs to the Poaceae family and it is used for its high biomass production. A field experiment was conducted using a factorial split-plot design with three replicates and twenty-four plots per replication. The ... -
A novel NiFe@NC-functionalized N-doped carbon microtubule network derived from biomass as a highly efficient 3D free-standing cathode for Li-CO2 batteries
(2019)Rechargeable Li-CO2 batteries, which utilize CO2 into electrochemical energy storage systems, provide a promising strategy for alleviating the greenhouse effect and developing high energy density second batteries. However, ... -
