The Influence Of Anaerobic Pretreatment On The Treatability Of A Milk Waste, Jerry Lee Siegel
The Influence Of Anaerobic Pretreatment On The Treatability Of A Milk Waste, Jerry Lee Siegel
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Both anaerobic and aerobic treatment of wastewater has been used for many years. Some of the common aerobic treatment systems include oxidation or stabilization ponds, activated sludge, trickling filters, and aerated lagoons. Anaerobic treatment has been most commonly used for digestion of sewage sludge. However, septic tanks, anaerobic lagoons, and anaerobic activated sludge (contact stabilization) units are used to treat wastewater anaerobically. More recently, the two systems have been used in combination, with the anaerobic system preceding the aerobic one. This type of treatment has been used primarily for lagooning of industrial wastes, and most commonly for meat-packing wastes. In …

Breeding For Resistance To Wheat Streak Mosaic Virus, Charles Lee Lay
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Immunity to WSMV was found.in a Triticum Agropyron derived from Carsten x A. intermedium. This line was crossed with many common wheats and the F1 seed irradiated. After one backcross to common wheat and several generations of selfing it was concluded that a desirable translocation had not occurred. A backcrossing program was began in an attempt to establish an addition line. After two backcrosses of resistant plants to common wheat one disomic addition plant and three monosomic addition plants were identified. A fifth resistant plant with 42 chromosomes was also identified. This plant apparently involves a translocation but it is …

Heat Transfer By Numerical Solution For A Class Of Radiating Fins, Jia-Bo Hwang
Heat Transfer By Numerical Solution For A Class Of Radiating Fins, Jia-Bo Hwang
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
It has long been known that the heat transfer from a solid body to an ambient fluid can be increased by increasing the surface area of the solid body. Extended surfaces, or fins, are indispensable for compact heat exchangers. Geometrically, fins may be classified as straight fins, annular fins, and rod fins or spines. In most applications of fins, a fluid is circulating inside the fin-supporting pipe while the outside is exposed to another ambient fluid. The purpose of fin analysis is to find the temperature distribution in the fin and the heat transfer from the fin to the ambient …

Cost Analysis Of Precast Prestressed Composite Pavement On U.S. Highway 14-Bypass, Wayne R. Haug
Cost Analysis Of Precast Prestressed Composite Pavement On U.S. Highway 14-Bypass, Wayne R. Haug
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Because of the increase in heavy truck traffic, the need has developed for a stronger pavement to carry increasing wheel loads. These loads have usually resulted in thicker pavements which increases the cost. In some parts of the country the aggregates needed for pavements are scarce, making it necessary to transport the aggregates over long distances to the construction site. This longer haul increases the pavement cost and makes it necessary to investigate other methods of construction. A recent pavement development utilizes prestressed concrete. Prestressed concrete is composed of concrete prestressed with high strength steel. Concrete has a high compressive …
A Time-Lapse Photography Study Of Free Stall Housing For Dairy Calves, James L. Reeves
A Time-Lapse Photography Study Of Free Stall Housing For Dairy Calves, James L. Reeves
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
As a principal means of herd replacement and expansion, the dairy calf is vital to the success of a dairy enterprise. High mortality rates among dairy calves, frequently as high as twenty percent, are very costly to the dairyman. Besides paying the high cost of losing a calf, the dairyman must find a replacement for the animal. Obtaining a herd animal from outside sources involves the risk that the replacement may be of lower quality than was the lost calf. Through careful selection of animals and a well-planned breeding program, a good farm manager will find raising his own replacement …
