Dampness and Waterproofing A high performance basement has the benefits of a healthier interior environment‚ reduced energy consumption‚ and a more durable and effective home. In order to achieve such standards‚ you must look at the condition’s involving the basement. The soil‚ in which your house is on‚ is critically important‚ as the soil types affect the way your property drains. Coarse grained soils‚ are good foundation soils‚ and drain freely. Fine grained soils‚ are typically weak founding

ABSTRACT This project is all about to design and fabricate An “Automatic Plant Watering System”.Automated plant watering system is a self-running watering system for plants which are very ideal for small group of gardeners and farmers. The Automatic watering System is mainly developed to run by its own‚ with a minimal supervision of human where it can control the water amount automatically and reduces the work load of an individual. The primary objective of the system is to supply the entire plant

Enzymes are responsible for many crucial processes in living cells since they accelerate chemical reactions which would occur too slowly‚ or would lead to different products without their contribution. Enzymes are biocatalysts that usually show high affinity to a specific substrate under particular environmental conditions. The binding of the substrate and catalysis take place at a specific small region‚ around 10 amino acids‚ in the enzyme known as active site which usually represents a hydrophobic

investigation into the effects of varying seawater concentrations on two marine invertebrates’ osmoregulatory abilities; Carcinus maenas and Arenicola marina. Introduction The concentration of solutes in the bodily fluids of most marine invertebrates is roughly isosmotic to their environment (Raven‚ 2008). Because there is no osmotic gradient there is no tendency for the net diffusion of water away from the animal’s cells to occur. When a change in salinity occurs some organisms have the ability

Chemical Control and Salinity Tolerance of Invasive Species Acacia Nilotica (L.) Willd ex Del. in Puttalam Area ABSTRACT Acacia nilotica (L.) Willd ex Del. is an invasive species currently spreading in Puttalam area. It prefers to grow in arid climates with alkaline soil profile. It is becoming a troublesome weed in this area and therefore‚ the present study was conducted with the objectives of controlling the species by glyphosate application and find out salinity tolerance range in

There were three levels of Na2SO4 including control i.e. 0‚ 30and 60ppm. Experiment was laid down in completely randomized design (CRD) with three replicates. The result showed that the plants have no treatment of salinity were better

Estuaries and swamps impose very high water salinity. In fact salinity percentages can stand on average 3% ’s - as high as seawater! For this purpose‚ mangroves have acquired three ways to survive with high and variable

respectively. The halide in seawater sample was identified as chloride based on their experimental E°(Ag/AgX) value of 0.22 ±0.02V. The literature value of 0.222V lay between its 95% confidence interval accounting for accuracy (1). The result was accurate and precise with percent error of 0.9% and relative standard deviation of 0.14%. The concentration of chloride in seawater was calculated as 0.515 ± 0.002 M of chloride. Based on the literature value for chloride concentration in seawater of 0.546M‚ the percent
