Abstract:
The cultivation of ornamental plants under different types of shelter and covering materials which reduce light intensity, resulting in morphological and physiological changes, needs to be evaluated before any large-scale use of such types of shelter covers. Baby rubber plants were grown in pots filled with peat under four different shelters and covering materials as follows: MG (multitunnel greenhouse with thermo-reflective aluminised screen), BG (buried solar greenhouse with thermo-reflective aluminised screen), NH (net house covered only with antipest mesh) and NH-AS (net house with antipest mesh and thermo-reflective aluminised screen). At the end of the experiment, the growth parameters and color of leaves, as well as photosynthetic and nutritional parameters, were assessed for each treatment. Baby rubber plants grown under NH-AS showed the highest values for growth parameters. The absence of shading in a net house may result in photoinhibition, reducing the growth and increasing the values of red (R) and blue (B) in leaves, which may be related to the increase of anthocyanin synthesis. The low level of radiation intercepted in the multitunnel and the buried greenhouse increased chlorophyll, N and P leaf concentration, while for K concentration, there was no clear trend and Na and Cl leaf concentration were similar under the different types of shelter. We concluded that the production of baby rubber plants under net house with antipest mesh and thermo-reflective aluminised screen is the best option to maximise the market value of baby rubber plants.

Abstract:
Abstract Five systems for protection of container grown nursery stock were compared for freeze injury to shoots and roots of Ilex crenata Thunb. ‘Green Island’ and Euonymus fortunei (Turcz.) ‘Emerald 'n Gold’. In three treatments, plants were protected starting November 15, 1988 either in a white co-polymer house or with structureless non-woven polypropylene covers (N-Sulate™ or Typar™). In a fourth treatment, structureless clear polyethylene was applied when temperatures were cold enough (−7°C (25°F) to cause injury. The controls were not covered. The white co-polymer house and the temporary covering with clear polyethylene reduced the number of hours below −7°C (25°F) in the canopy or medium and resulted in fewer plant losses compared to the nonwoven covers or the controls. Development of shoot and root hardiness of both species was monitored prior to and after the low temperature period. Roots of plants under long-term protective covers were slightly less hardy than those not covered.

Abstract:
Vertical greening systems (VGSs), i.e., living walls (LWs) and green façades (GFs), are considered a promising technology to diminish the negative effects of urbanisation. Plant selection for these systems is challenging due to the narrow spectrum of species available, and the required adaptation to specific climate conditions. Considering Chile’s rich plant biodiversity, this study aims to analyse the potential of Chilean native species to be introduced in VGSs. A total of 109 potentially usable species from the north (n = 25), centre (n = 32), south (n = 31) and the Andes Mountains (n = 21) were selected for VGSs, showing a high level of endemism (43.1%). According to the filters applied, 39 and 70 species were selected for GFs and LWs, respectively. To evaluate appreciation of Chilean native plants and their potential use in VGSs, an online questionnaire was responded by 428 individuals. Most participants agreed or strongly agreed with the use of LWs and/or GFs inside their house/apartment (75.5%) and in their garden/balcony (90.0%). Most of the participants agreed or strongly agreed with the use of Chilean native plants inside their house/apartment (75.0%) and in their garden/balcony (84.4%). Further empirical studies are still required to confirm the use of Chilean native species in LWs and GFs.

Abstract:
Two Kaldnes moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR™) full scale treatment plants were commissioned in 1999, following successful pilot tests which generated the design data. The MBBR plants are incorporated into each facility as roughing reactors ahead of existing activated sludge processes. Results from the first three months of operation at the Phillips refinery showed surfa ce area loading rates (SALR) averaging 27 g COD/m2/day or twice those seen in the pilot study while percent removals remained constant at 62%. Performance at the Valley Pride Pack facility showed >90% removal of soluble BOD at SALR of 20 g/m2/day in one reactor while nitrification removal rates up to 0.83 g NH3–N/m2/day have been seen in the second stage of the MBBR treatment system.

Abstract:
Abstract Glass-house experiments were conducted to study the correlation between Cu uptake by several plants and soil Cu extracted by several chemical extractants. Heavy-metal contaminated soils from Lampung, the southern part of Sumatra, Indonesia, with different levels of Cu were used. Eight different plants including amaranth (Amaranthus tricolor), caisim (Brassica chinensis var. Parachinensis), corn (Zea mays L.), land spinach (Ipomoea reptans Poir), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), napier grass (Penissetum purpureum), thorny amaranth (Amaranthus spinosus L.) and water spinach (Ipomoea aquatica) were employed. The uptake of Cu for amaranth is well predicted by N HCl, Buffered DTPA pH 7.30, N NH4OAc pH 7.00, and M CaCl2; for corn by N HCl and N NH4OAc pH 7.00; for land spinach by N HNO3, N HCl, Buffered DTPA, N NH4OAc pH 7.00, and M CaCl2; for napier grass by N HCl and Unbuffered DTPA. N HNO3 is good in predicting the uptake of Cu by land spinach, N HCl by amaranth, corn, land spinach, and napier grass; Buffered DTPA by amaranth and land spinach; Unbuffered DTPA by napier grass; N NH4OAc pH 7.00 by amaranth, corn and land spinach, and M CaCl2 by amaranth and land spinach. None of the tested methods is good in predicting the uptake Cu by caisim, lettuce, thorny amaranth, and water spinach

Abstract:
The aim of the research is to assess the viability of castor (Ricinus communis) and senna (Senna occidentalis) plants up to 90 days after planting (DAP) in agricultural soil spiked with different concentration of zinc in the screen house. Agricultural soil was collected from Bayero University Kano, at 11° 98ʹ 32.59″N; 8°42ʹ 43.97″E. Soil texture, pH, electrical conductivity (EC), organic carbon (OC), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and exchangeable cations (K + , Ca + , Mg + and Na + ) were determined. Castor and senna were planted in soil spiked with 2 mg/kg, 4mg/kg and 8 mg/kg of zinc sulphate (ZnSO4) each. Control plants containing only agricultural soil without spiking with zinc were added and the set up replicated 4 times. Plant height, number of leaves and root length were assessed at 45 and 90 days after planting (DAP). The soil was sandy loam, slightly acidic, C, N, P and K+ had mean values of 0.41%, 0.33 mg/kg, 14.33 mg/kg and 0.39 cmol/kg respectively. There were significantly higher (p<0.05) mean values for height (16.85cm) and root length (17.35 cm) of control castor plants than those treated with zinc at 45 DAP. At the termination of the experiment (90 DAP), senna plants in control had significantly higher mean values for height (29.5 cm) than all other treatments. All concentrations of zinc used in this work did not seem to have much negative effects on the vegetative growth of both test plants.

Abstract:
Abstract Brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens Stall) is one of the most dangerous rice pests in Southeast Asia, therefor the population in the plantation must be controlled. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the botanical insecticide formulations in controlling brown planthopper attacks, the presence of natural enemies and their impact on the growth and production of rice plants. The study was conducted in the laboratory and the field. Screen house research was conducted in Indonesian Spices and Medicinal Crops Research Institute by testing the botanical insecticide formulation at five concentrations, namely; 0, 0.5, 2.5, 4.5, and 6.5 cc/l, and repeated five times. The results showed that at a concentration of 4.5cc/l, the insecticide was able to cause 97% mortality of the insects. This concentration was then used for spray application in the screen house which showed a more significant number of productive tillers, grain per bunch, and weight of 1000 grains than the control treatment, and about 25% higher in plant production. The Results of the field study conducted in Indramayu District showed that the botanical insecticide was able to suppress the population of N. lugens, but it was safe for natural enemies. The production of plants sprayed with botanical insecticides was 16.39% higher than the control treatment. This indicated that the botanical insecticide tested can be able to suppress the population of N. lugens, but was also safe against natural enemies and increase rice production.

Abstract:
Waste from the broiler and layer farming industry with a closed-house system continues to increase without optimizing waste utilization and harms the environment. Potential chicken litter waste from the chicken farming industry in West Sumatra is 5 tons per harvest (40 days) from a chicken livestock capacity of 100,000 chickens. This research aims to assess the potential and utilization and study the biochemistry of chicken manure waste in closed-house systems as biosorbents and fertilizers through amelioration technology. Closed-house chicken coop bedding waste (CHCCW) in the form of sawdust has functional groups such as carboxyl that can absorb cations because it can increase the negative charge in the soil so that it can be utilized by plants. In addition, the CHCCW can also absorb cations (pollutants). Chemical characteristics from the analysis results prove the ability of the CHCCW. Chicken litter waste has chemical characteristics that have the potential as a biosorbent and are valid as fertilizer, which has a proximate composition (moisture 4.26%; volatile matter 74.20%; ash 6.78% and fixed carbon 14.76%); pH (pH H2O 8.37 and pH PZC 7.37); electrical conductivity (EC) >2 dS m-1 and cation exchange capacity (CEC) 182.67 Cmol(+)kg-1. The nutrient composition of chicken manure waste in closed-house systems has macro nutrients (6.88% C; 0.06% N; 5.89% P; 34.89% K; 36.28% Ca; 5.76% S) and micronutrients (2.49% Fe; 1.39% Mn; 1.22% Zn; 1.01% Cu; and 5.15% Cl). Chicken manure waste in closed-house systems also has functional groups such as O-H, N-H, C-H, C-OH, C=C, C=O, C-O-C, Si-O, and O-CH3, which play an active role in the absorption of pollutants and nutrients in the soil.

Abstract:
In this paper the feasibility of using photovoltaic cells to reduce electricity generation from fossil fuels in North Cyprus (N. Cyprus) was studied. In this work it is proposed to use photovoltaic systems to power heating and cooling systems (i.e., mainly heat pumps) in household units and it was found that this is economically feasible. It was also discovered that despite the extensive use of solar water heaters in N. Cyprus, the awareness of photovoltaic cells is still very low and few house owners take advantage of its economic and environmental friendliness. It was also observed that PV cells are not widely available in the local market; coupled with the fact that formal awareness of energy friendly electricity means is not well promoted in developing countries. The result of this work shows that about 40% of yearly electricity consumption in N. Cyprus, which is mainly generated from plants using fuel oil no. 6, can be reduced if all household units use PV systems to heat or cool the house depending on the weather conditions. According to the electricity forecast carried out in this paper it was observed that the annual net electricity consumption is expected to increase by 30.65% in the year 2015. This means that the utility company will need to augment its current facilities to accommodate the increment; by expanding its facilities or opting for energy conservation policies. The latter has proved to be inefficient in this part of the world; the former will increase the use of fossil fuel thereby increasing the CO2 emission. This work also provides economic analysis for PV systems investment for household owners and policies to help increase availability of PV cells in N. Cyprus market.

Abstract:
Environmental assisted fatigue is a phenomenon that has been investigated over the past 30 years through many test campaigns in various laboratories around the world. It is receiving nowadays an increased level of attention as many nuclear plants will see their life-time extended to up to 60 years. To provide a set of rules for this significant life extension, international codes have already proposed code cases to formally integrate these effects. More particularly, the ASME code has based itself on the NUREG/CR-6909 [1] to elaborate the Code Case N-792 [2] and suggests a modification of the fatigue curve combined with a calculation of an environmental penalty factor, namely Fen, which multiplies the typical usage factor. In France, the EDF and AREVA objective is also to more explicitly integrate these effects in the RCC-M code basing itself on international methodologies but also results from French in-house testing campaigns [3]. The approach in this paper is globally similar to the one in the ASME code: it will indeed consist in an update of the fatigue curve as well as the calculation of an environmental penalty factor. Nevertheless, the methodologies differ in their detailed implementation, as was already hinted in previous papers discussing the French methodology [4–5]. This paper will present the proposal as well as highlight the differences with the ASME methodology.

Abstract:
In USA there are approximately 100 operating light water reactors (LWR) consisting fleet of both pressurized water reactors (PWR) and boiling water reactors (BWR). Most of these reactors were built before 1970 and the design lives of most of these reactors are 40 years. It is expected that by 2030, even those reactors that have received 20 year life extension license from the US nuclear regulatory commission (NRC) will begin to reach the end of their licensed periods of operation. For economical reason it is be beneficial to extend the license beyond 60 to perhaps 80 years that would enable existing plants to continue providing safe, clean and economic electricity without significant green house gas emissions. However, environmental fatigue is one of the major aging related issues for these reactors, and may create hurdles in long term sustainability of these reactors. To address some of the environmental fatigue related issues, Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) with the sponsorship of Department of Energy’s Light Water Reactor Sustainability (LWRS) program trying to develop mechanistic approach for more accurate life estimation of LWR components. In this context ANL conducted many fatigue experiments under different test and environment conditions on 316 stainless steel (316SS) material that is or similar grade steels are widely used in US reactors. Contrary to the conventional S∼N curve based empirical fatigue life estimation approach, the aim of the present DOE sponsored work is to understand material ageing more mechanistically (e.g. time dependent hardening and softening) under different test and environmental conditions. Better mechanistic understanding will help to develop computer based advanced modeling tools to better extrapolate stress-strain evolution of reactor component under multi-axial stress states and hence to help predicting their fatigue life more accurately. In this paper (part-I) the fatigue experiments under different test and environment conditions and related stress-strain results for 316 SS are discussed. In another paper (part-II) the related evolutionary cyclic plasticity material modeling techniques and results are discussed.
