INVESTIGATION OF SEVERAL INFLUENTIAL FACTORS ON ORGANIC MATTER DECOMPOSITION IN LIGNITE USING HYDROGEN PEROXIDE TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE SUBSURFACE CULTIVATION AND GASIFICATION METHOD

Investigation of Several Influential Factors on Organic Matter Decomposition in Lignite using Hydrogen Peroxide to Contribute to the Subsurface Cultivation and Gasification Method

Recently, the possibility of realizing a subsurface bio-reactor has been realized since microbial methanogenesis has been confirmed in diverse subsurface environments such as coalbeds or petroleum reservoirs.We propose a new gasification method for use in subsurface environments, known as the Subsurface Cultivation and Gasification (SCG).SCG was de

The effect of plant population densities on growth, yield and yield components of two spring rapeseed cultivars

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is an important alternate oilseed crop in eastern Anatolia, Turkey.No information on plant density for rapeseed is available in this region.Therefore a study was initiated to investigate the effects of spacings between HEMP OIL rows and spacings within rows on the yield and agronomic characteristics of two genotypes of

At the brink of supercoloniality: genetic, behavioral and chemical assessments of population structure of the desert ant Cataglyphis niger

The nesting habits of ants play an important role in structuring ant populations.They vary from monodomy, a colony occupies a single nest, via polydomy, a colony occupies multiple adjacent nests, to supercoloniality, a colony spans over large territories comprising dozen to thousands nests without having any boundaries.The population structure of t
