HOW EFFICIENT ARE AGITATORS IN BIOGAS DIGESTERS? DETERMINATION OF THE EFFICIENCY OF SUBMERSIBLE MOTOR MIXERS AND INCLINE AGITATORS BY MEASURING NUTRIENT DISTRIBUTION IN FULL-SCALE AGRICULTURAL BIOGAS DIGESTERS

How Efficient are Agitators in Biogas Digesters? Determination of the Efficiency of Submersible Motor Mixers and Incline Agitators by Measuring Nutrient Distribution in Full-Scale Agricultural Biogas Digesters

The goal of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of two different agitation systems by measuring the nutrient distribution in a digester fed with renewable energy crops and animal manure.The study was carried out at the practical research biogas plant of Hohenheim University.A unique probe sampling system has been developed that allows probe sa

Exploring the potential of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy for label-free identification of animal origin of chondroitin sulfate

This study developed vetality twist and lick a simple method to distinguish the animal source of chondroitin sulfate (CS) through systematic investigations and comparisons of the terahertz (THz) spectral characteristics of CS with different animal sources.CS from shark had the lowest THz absorption coefficient, followed by that from cattle, with CS

Impact of improved beehives technology adoption on honey production efficiency: empirical evidence from Southern Ethiopia

Abstract Background Kaffa, Sheka and Bench Maji zones of Southern Ethiopia are high honey production areas with dense forest coverage.However, due to the traditional production system, the productivity per hive is low.To exploit this production potential in these zones by increasing productivity per hive, different governmental and non-governmental
