Plant regeneration process

Zearalenone was also found to be more effective than cytokinin treatment in inducing shoots in in vitro winter wheat production. Moreover, both zearalenone and cytokinins increased the activity of antioxidant enzymes in wheat callus undergoing regeneration, and it is very likely that they also stimulated the plant regeneration process (Szechynska-Hebda et al. 2007). The effectiveness of regeneration on media containing zearalenone shows the possibility of using zearalenone as an alternative hormone also to cytokinins in winter wheat callus culture. 

Absorber oil units offer the advantage that Hquids can be removed at the expense of only a small (34—69 kPa (4.9—10.0 psi)) pressure loss in the absorption column. If the feed gas is available at pipeline pressure, then Httle if any recompression is required to introduce the processed natural gas into the transmission system. However, the absorption and subsequent absorber-oil regeneration process tends to be complex, favoring the simpler, more efficient expander plants. Separations using soHd desiccants are energy-intensive because of the bed regeneration requirements. This process option is generally considered only in special situations such as hydrocarbon dew point control in remote locations. 

A large use of molecular sieves ia the natural gas industry is LPG sweetening, in which H2S and other sulfur compounds are removed. Sweetening and dehydration are combined in one unit and the problem associated with the disposal of caustic wastes from Hquid treating systems is eliminated. The regeneration medium is typically natural gas. Commercial plants are processing from as Htde as ca 30 m /d (200 bbl/d) to over 8000 m /d (50,000 bbl/d). 

In order to estimate emissions from pickling facilities, U.S. EPA developed 17 model plants to represent five types of pickling operations and one acid regeneration process.12 The model plants include one or more size variation for each process model. The model plants were developed from information obtained from a survey of steel pickling operations and control technologies. U.S. EPA estimated emission rates for model facilities. Using these emission rates and the production and hours of operation for the model pickling plants, emission factors were calculated. These appear in Table 28.12.

Plastid transformation is highly dependent on the tissue culture process because it enables copies of the wild-type plastid genome to be selectively eliminated before plant regeneration (Maliga, 2003). However, many of the crop species regenerated in this way turn out to be sterile, a consequence of plant regeneration from tissue culture. As mentioned earlier, the transformation of Arabidopsis, tomato, potato, rice, and rape seed oil has been achieved at very low efficiencies, and the resulting transformants... 

The magnesium oxide formed in the regeneration process is recycled back to the scrubber system and the sulfur dioxide is sent to the sulfuric acid plant.
