Agricultural involved

A basic emission load resulting from agriculture involves the calculation of greenhouse gases in the field phase. In the context of comparing the formation of greenhouse gas emissions in...

Of course, systems used in modem, industrial agriculture involve much more intensive management of livestock than is practiced by subsistence farmers. Animals raised on so-called factory farms are typically bred with great attention to breeding lineages, commonly... 

To allow objectivity of the findings, ElA s are usually carried out by independent specialists or organisations. It will involve not only scientific experts, but also require consultation with official and representative bodies such as the government ministries for the environment, fisheries, food, agriculture, and local water authorities. In activities which may impact on local population (terminals, refineries, access roads, land developments) local representatives of the inhabitants may be consulted, and the public affairs function... 

Flow injection analysis has been applied to a wide variety of samples, including environmental, clinical, agricultural, industrial, and pharmaceutical samples. The majority of analyses to date involve environmental and clinical samples, which is the focus of this section. 

Most states now have an aquaculture coordinator, usually housed in the state department of agriculture, who can assist prospective aquaculturists in finding a path through the permitting process. Anyone considering development of an aquaculture faciHty should become educated on the permitting process of the state or nation in which the faciHty will be developed. In cases where the process is involved, it should be initiated weU in advance of the anticipated time of actual faciHty constmction. 

Refuse-Derived Fuel. Many processing faciUties divert a portion of the material that is not recovered for recycling to waste-to-energy plants, also referred to as resource recovery faciUties, where the material is employed as fuel. The processes involved in the production of refuse-derived fuel (RDF) are outlined in Figure 4 (23). Nine different RDFs have been defined, as Hsted in Table 3 (24). There are several ways to prepare RDF-3, which is perhaps the most popular form and is the feed used in the preparation of densified refuse-derived fuel (d-RDF). AH forms of RDF are part of the broader set of waste-derived fuels (WDF), which includes various waste biomass, eg, from silvaculture or agriculture (see Fuels frombiomass Fuels fromwaste). 

Solving water pollution problems today involves a multidisciplinary approach in which the required water quaUty is related to agricultural, municipal, recreational, and industrial requirements. In many cases, a cost—benefit ratio must be estabUshed between the benefit derived from a specified water quaUty and the cost of achieving that quaUty. 

Monochlorobenzene. The largest use of monochlorobenzene in the United States is in the production of nitrochlorobenzenes, both ortho and para, which are separated and used as intermediates for mbber chemicals, antioxidants (qv), dye and pigment intermediates, agriculture products, and pharmaceuticals (Table 5). Since the mid-1980s, there have been substantial exports of both o-nitrochlorobenzene, estimated at 7.7 million kg to Europe and -nitrochlorobenzene, estimated at 9.5 million kg to the Far East. Solvent use of monochlorobenzene accounted for about 28% of the U.S. consumption. This appHcation involves solvents for herbicide production and the solvent for diphenylmethane diisocyanate manufacture and other chemical intermediates.
