Determine Moisture Content

The aim of this research was to produce three-layer Medium Density Particleboard (MDP), with the addition of impregnated paper, in the inner layer, in proportions of 1; 5 and 20%. In this study, MDP was composed with particles of small size in outer layers, and larger particles in internal layer. After panel manufacturing, physical and mechanical tests based on Brazilian Code ABNT NBR 14.810 were carried out to determine moisture content; density; thickness swelling; water absorption; modulus of rupture (MOR) and modulus of elasticity (MOE) in static bending and internal adhesion. Test results were compared to commercial panels, produced with 100% Eucalyptus, considering the requirements specified by Brazilian Code. Properties presented values close to normative specifications, indicating positively the possibility of production of MDP using addition of waste paper impregnated.

Determine Moisture Content

Uses of isotopes and nuclear related techniques in livestock and agriculture are discussed in this review. How developed countries are using (125I) in radioimmunoassay (RIA) of progesterone hormone in serum/milk of cattle to optimize reproductive efficiency is briefly described. In addition, this paper discusses about the uses of (15N) in soil to know the dynamics of nitrogen and uses of Hydro Probe to determine moisture content in the soil. This review will also shed some light on the potential uses of isotopes and nuclear techniques and the necessity of such technology in Nepal for improving overall agricultural productivity.

Determine Moisture Content

The research on the biosorption of Cu2+ metal ions in brown seaweed biosorbent (Padina australis) has been done. This study aims to determine moisture content, ash content, biomass content, pH and optimum contact time of Cu2+  metal ions absorption pH and optimum contact time of Cu2+  metal ions absorption. The method used is batch method. The adsorption result of Cu2+ metal ions was analyzed  by  using  atomic  absorption  spectrophotometer  (AAS).  The  results showed that the optimum pH was 7 with 99.8308 % absorption ability of biosorbent and the optimum contact time was 5 hours with 99.5570 % biosorbent absorbency.
