Describe the physico-chemical qualities of water that are important to aquaculturists. Aquaculture can be defined as the high-density production of fish‚ shellfish and plant forms in a controlled environment. Stocking rates for high-density aquaculture are typically thousand fold greater than wild environments. Modern fish culturists employ both open and close systems to raise fish. Open systems‚ such as‚ the raceways are characterized by rapid turnover of water. Closed systems are commonplace in pond

and a serious crisis of water drinking. The country has only about 6.5% of the renewable water resources of the planet to sustain one fifth of the world population. Consequently‚ the per capita available in the country corresponding to 1/4 of the world average. Because of these problems the personal tastes and preferences in China are changing for bottle water over municipal tap water. Increasing the consciousness among Chinese people and the desire to avoid contracting water born disease has seen

CARBON TAX ON TOURISM CARBON TAX The tax levied on the carbon content of fuels is known as the carbon tax. Carbon tax is a type of carbon pricing. Fuels like coal‚ petroleum and natural gas release carbon dioxide (CO2) when they are burnt. This tax has been introduced to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. These taxes can be regressive tax‚ in which they may affect low income groups directly or indirectly. This regressive impact on carbon taxes can be addressed by using the tax revenues to

Carbon nanotube 1 Carbon nanotube Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are allotropes of carbon with a cylindrical nanostructure. Nanotubes have been constructed with [1] length-to-diameter ratio of up to 132‚000‚000:1‚ significantly larger than for any other material. These cylindrical carbon molecules have unusual properties‚ which are valuable for nanotechnology‚ electronics‚ optics and other fields of materials science and technology. In particular‚ owing to their extraordinary thermal conductivity

only nature prevails. This is seen in the lines of “The little waves‚ with their soft‚ white hands‚ efface the footprints in the sands‚” which represent that nature (waves) can just easily wipe out our existence (footprints). The poem describes images of soft white waves washing ashore‚ wiping away footprints in the sand. The author used a lot of descriptive words and metaphors. “Footprints” is a metaphor for human existence‚ while “the tide” is a metaphor for Mother Nature and its capabilities. It

SOTA Review Carbon Capture and Storage(CCS) This research paper will briefly go over some of the designs that are being used and have been used throughout the history of carbon capture. To start‚ it is important to put in perspective what kind of money is spent on the capturing of carbon in a general sense. Another thing that is important to understand is a few of the main ways to capture carbon. Since the project definition is very specific‚ it is easy to find which types of capture will be

involve low carbon society concept. The question is what is sustainable development and low carbon society? Sustainable development is eco-friendly development and low carbon society is society that consumes sustainable and relatively low carbon energy as compared with our present day to avoid adverse climate change. Malaysia also participates in this program in order to reduce carbon emission to avoid climate change. In this research we focus on how to transformed Iskandar Malaysia to low carbon society
