  • Ramial Chipped Wood 1 Ramial Chipped Wood
    Ramial chipped wood 1 Ramial chipped wood Ramial Chipped Wood (RCW) is a wood product used in cultivation for mulching, fertilizing, and soil enrichment. The raw material consists of the twigs and branches of trees and woody shrubs, preferably deciduous, including small limbs up to 7 cm. (23⁄ in.) in diameter. It is processed into small pieces by chipping, and the resulting product 4 has a relatively high ratio of cambium to cellulose compared to other chipped wood products. Thus, it is higher in nutrients and is an effective promoter of the growth of soil fungi and of soil-building in general. The goal is to develop an airy and spongy soil that holds an ideal amount of water and resists evaporation and compaction, while containing a long-term source of fertility. It can effectively serve as a panacea for depleted and eroded soils. The raw material is primarily a byproduct of the hardwood logging industry, where it was traditionally regarded as a waste material. Research into forest soils and ecosystems at Laval University (Quebec, Canada) led to the recognition of the value of this material and to research into its uses. Originally termed BRF (French: "bois raméal fragmenté" or "chipped branch-wood".) Usable types of wood The wood from heartwood and branches larger than 3 inches in diameter is not desirable due to its high C/N ratio (approximately 600:1), which requires a lot of nitrogen in its decomposition. Only the sapwood and young branches (under 3 inches in diameter) from the various noble hardwoods (hard woods high in tannins such as oak, chestnut, maple, beech and acacia) is used as their heartwood is high in tannins.

Results did not show that SMS significantly improved either biomass production or phytoremediation efficiency. After the three growing seasons, RCW- amended S. miyabeana accumulated significantly more Zn in the shoots, and greater increases of some PAHs were found in the soil of RCW-amended plots than in the soil of the two other ground Citation: Fortin Faubert, M.; Hijri, cover treatments’ plots.

  • Use of Uncomposted Woodchip As a Soil Improver in Arable and Horticultural Soils Sally Westaway1, Anais Rousseau2, Jo Smith1
    Use of uncomposted woodchip as a soil improver in arable and horticultural soils Sally Westaway1, Anais Rousseau2, Jo Smith1 1Organic Research Centre, RG20 0HR, Newbury, UK; 2Association Française d'Agroforesterie, 44 rue Victor Hugo, 32 000 AUCH, France 1E-mail: [email protected] The challenge One challenge farmers face is maintaining and improving soil health and soil organic matter in the heavily cultivated soils often found in arable and horticultural systems. Repeated applications of composted material have been (a) (c) well documented as leading to long term improvements in soil organic matter (SOM), soil water retention and improved soil nutrient status. But this material either needs to be sourced externally as a finished product which can be costly and unsustainable or composted on farm which requires space and time for the composting process to take place. Ramial woodchip (b) (d) The application of fresh uncomposted, or ramial woodchip (RCW) to cultivated soils also has significant potential benefits, with a long-term study in the US showing positive results in terms of soil biological activity and SOM (Free, 1971). Research by Caron et al (1998) confirmed these findings and recommends using smaller diameter material for chip production, chipped fresh when the leaves are off, as younger branches are more Figure 1 (a) Spreading RCW at Tolhurst Organics using a rear discharge muck spreader, 2018.

  • New Trends in Environmental Catalytic Technologies for Water Remediation
    water Editorial New Trends in Environmental Catalytic Technologies for Water Remediation Zacharias Frontistis Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Western Macedonia, GR-50100 Kozani, Greece; [email protected] Due to climate change, industrialization, and overpopulation, water resources man- agement is becoming a crucial sector. Consequently, as the limits of legislation for effluents’ reuse and recycling and use in crops or aquifers enrichment are becoming increasingly stringent, advanced wastewater treatment is becoming very demanding. Simultaneously, in recent years, a new generation of pollutants has emerged. The xenobiotic compounds present a disproportionately high degree of toxicity even though they are detected in mini- mal quantities, which is why they are called micro pollutants. This category contains many compounds belonging to different families, such as endocrine disruptors, pharmaceutical compounds, and personal care products. One of the main problems of this new generation of pollutants is their extremely low biodegradation or their tendency to accumulate in the sludge of conventional biological wastewater treatment systems. On the other hand, in the scientific community and the environmental restoration industry, the search for the optimal solution for removing recalcitrant organic pollutants such as humic acid and inorganics such as heavy metals from environmental matrices continues at an intensive pace. In this light, the scientific interest has turned to a new generation of physicochemical methods called advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). These processes are based on the in situ generation of reactive oxygen Citation: Frontistis, Z. New Trends species. AOPs include technologies such as photocatalysis, photo Fenton and Fenton-like in Environmental Catalytic reactions, activated persulfate, ozonation, wet air oxidation, UV/H2O2, hydrodynamic or Technologies for Water Remediation.

In current study, we have systemised and critically discussed the feasibility of CWPO for industrial and urban wastewater treatment. More specifically, types of catalysts the effect of pH, temperature, and hydrogen peroxide concentrations on the efficiency of CWPO were taken into consideration. The operating and maintenance costs of CWPO applied to wastewater treatment and toxicity assessment were also discussed. Knowledge gaps were identified and summarised. The main conclusions of this work are: (i) catalyst leaching and deactivation is one of the main problematic issues; (ii) majority of studies were performed in semi-batch and batch reactors, while continuous fixed bed reactors were not extensively studied for treatment of real wastewaters; (iii) toxicity of wastewaters treated by CWPO is of key importance for possible application, however it was not studied thoroughly; and, (iv) CWPO can be regarded as economically viable for wastewater treatment, especially when conducted at ambient temperature and natural pH of wastewater.

    Ethnologia Polona, 2012-2013, 33-34, s. 215-228 Ethnologia Polona, vol. 33–34: 2012–2013, 215 – 228 PL ISSN 0137 - 4079 GERMANY – A NEW HOME? ON A NEW FORM OF MIGRATION IN A BORDER AREA BERNADETTE JONDA INSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY AND ETHNOLOGY, POZNAŃ POLISH ACADEMY OF SCIENCES MARTIN LUTHER UNIVERSITY OF HALLE-WITTENBERG (GERMANY) FACULTY OF PHILOSOPHY I, INSTITUTE OF SOCIOLOGY Abstract The Polish accession to the European Union has created favorable opportunities for Poles to settle in many West-European countries. Though the possibilities for settling in Germany were rather limited until 2011, more and more Polish citizens became interested in living on the German side of the Oder- Neisse border already shortly after 2004 (upon Polish accession to the EU). Particularly attractive were areas relatively close to Szczecin. The analysis of interviews with inhabitants there – Germans citizens, Polish newcomers and local politicians – enables the article to discuss the current situation in the district Uckermark in Brandenburg. The author focuses her attention on three administrative units: the town of Gartz and the villages Tantow and Mescherin. She presents elements in the social infrastructure redirected to the needs of newly arrived Polish families (for example kindergartens and schools), and subsequent efforts to ease their integration into German society. “I have one foot in Poland, and the other one in Germany, but I have to admit I’m quite satisfied that way.” – a phrase which expresses the pragmatic feelings of the many Poles who participated in the research conducted by the author in the years 2011–2013. The author’s presentation on this new form of coexistence and integration between Poles and Germans will be completed by an account of the opinions of native German residents about the current situation.

Fisher MS 239-1 l NASA - Ames Research Center Moffett Field, CA 94035 The aqueous phase oxidation of acetic acid, used as a model compound for the treatment of CELSS (Controlled Ecological Life Support System) waste, was carried out in the monolith froth reactor which utilizes two-phase flow in the monolith channels. The catalytic oxidation of acetic acid was carried out over a Pt/AI.,O_ catalyst, prepared at The University of Tulsa, at temperatures and pressures below the critical point of water. The effect of ex'temally controllable parameters (temperature, liquid flow rate, distributor plate orifice size, pitch, and catalyst distance from the distributor plate) on the rate of acetic acid oxidation was investigated. Results indicate reaction rate increased with increasing temperature and exhibited a maximum with respect to liquid flow rate. The apparent activation energy calculated from reaction rate data ,,,,,as 99.7 kJ/mol. This value is similar to values reported for the oxidation of acetic acid in other systems and is comparable to intrinsic values calculated for oxidation reactions. The "kinetic data were modeled using simple power law kinetics. The effect of "froth" feed system characteristics was also investigated. Results indicate that the reaction rate exhibits a maximum with respect to distributor plate orifice size, pitch, and catalyst distance from the distributor plate.
