A Feasibility Study Of Using Air-Lift Pumps For Aeration, Degasification, And Water Movement In A Recirculating Aquaculture System, John Clay Loyless Dec 1995

A Feasibility Study Of Using Air-Lift Pumps For Aeration, Degasification, And Water Movement In A Recirculating Aquaculture System, John Clay Loyless

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

A feasibility study of using air-lift pumps for water movement, aeration, and degasification in a recirculating aquaculture system was conducted. Fluid delivery tests of various air-lift configurations indicated that water flow is a function of the submergence depth, lift height, and air injection rate. The air-lift units were found to transfer 02 at only 1/5 to 1/2 the rate of comparably operated open-water aeration systems. The standard oxygen transfer rate (SOTR) increased with air injection from 1-7 scftn, however, the energy usage also increased, yielding a reduction in the standard aeration efficiency (SAE) from over 2 to less than 0.5 …

The Educational Value Of 4-H Activities As Perceived By Louisiana 4-H Agents, Lanette Griffin

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The primary purpose of this study was to determine the educational value of 4-H activities as perceived by Louisiana 4-H agents. Data were obtained by a researcher designed survey completed by 91 4-H agents during the 1994 Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service’s annual conference. The data showed the 4-H camp was the highest rated educational activity and it was the only activity perceived as having a very high educational value. Twenty activities were rated as high in educational value, 25 as moderate in educational value, and four items as low in educational value. Agents were also asked to estimate the number …


The Archaeological Site Of Port Dauphin (1mb61): Its Role In The French Colony On Mobile Bay, George W. Shorter Aug 1995

The Archaeological Site Of Port Dauphin (1mb61): Its Role In The French Colony On Mobile Bay, George W. Shorter

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The French colony in Louisiana resulted from the competition between France, Spain, and England for control of the region. France's interest, that began with the expedition of La Salle in 1682, resulted in the founding of the first French permanent colony on the Gulf coast by Iberville in 1699, Fort Maurepas. The colony was moved in 1702 to Mobile Bay. Mobile, the capital, was located 39 miles upriver for access to the Indian nations of the interior. Dauphin Island served as port. After two decades the colony was refocused on the Mississippi River, but the first 20 years of French …
