“…Thus it is an important to understand the specificity of crop-effluent liaison for their appropriate application in irrigation practices (Vinod et al, 2010). In recent past various studies have been made on the characteristics of effluent of industries, agronomical properties of various crop plants (Osemwota et al, 2000;Gomez et al, 2001;Ramana et al, 2002;TseMing et al, 2004;García-Orenes et al, 2005;Kaushik et al, 2005;Osemwota et al, 2005;Nastri et al, 2006;Sharif et al, 2006;Hati et al, 2007;Roy et al, 2007;Afshin et al, 2008;Beligh et al, 2007;Bharagava et al, 2008;ChinChing et al, 2008;Kannan and Upreti, 2008;Patterson et al, 2008;Biswas et al, 2009;Chandra et al, 2009;Chopra et al, 2009;Hassanli et al, 2009;Jeremy et al, 2009;Mohammadi et al, 2010;Osadebamwen, 2010;Stoecio et al, 2010;and Vinod et al, 2010). Keeping in view the above facts, a field experiment was conducted to study the effect of graded doses of Sugar mill effluent application on the physical and physico-chemical properties of a loamy sand soil at Haridwar (Uttarakhand).…”

Abstract:The influence of seven rates of Sugar mill effluent (viz. 0, 5, 10 25, 50, 75 and 100 ml/kg soil) along with control (Bore-well water, BWW) on the physical and chemical properties of soils revealed that among various concentrations of the effluents, the irrigation with 100% effluent concentration decreased moisture content (20.44%),WHC (13.80%), BD (4.14%) and increased pH (9.56%), EC ( , TKN, NO 3 2-, PO 4 3-and SO 4 2-, Zn, Cu, Cd, Cr and Pb and insignificant (P>0.05) effect on moisture content, WHC and bulk density after sugar mill effluent irrigation when compared to control. There was no momentous change in the soil texture of the soil. The enrichment factor (Ef) of various micronutrients in the soil was recorded in order of Cr>Pb>Cd>Cu>Zn after irrigation with sugar mill effluent.

“…While is not proven that OME can be used as a fertilizer or as a soil conditioner, the legislation which regulates OME disposal is becoming more and more stringent [15]. High volumes of OME need to be disposed of yearly, whilst suitable land is becoming ever less available.…”

Evaluation of Net Energy Obtainable from Combustion of Stabilised Olive Mill By-Products

This work is aimed at calculating the energy content of the residues from olive oil production. Olive pulp, olive husk and sludge (a mixture of olive pulp and husk) have been analyzed separately. Olive Mill Effluents (OME) are normally a problem for olive mill farms, yet they may be used as feedstock for biomass-fuelled power plants. Nonetheless, OMEs are characterized by a relatively high humidity content and are produced only during the olive season. Thus, OME need a stabilization process to be employed as a solid biofuel throughout the year. The analyses conducted attempt an evaluation of the energy consumption of a three-stage stabilization process: drying, milling and pelletising. The net electrical energy available from OME is then calculated as a difference between gross energy available and energy consumed for stabilization. The gross available electrical energy was calculated based on direct energy conversion of the stabilized feedstock on a small scale direct combustion and Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) turbine. Results show that OME are suitable for energy production. Approximately 4500 kJ/kg of net electrical energy may be obtained out of olive sludge or olive pulp, while olive husk shows a potential gross energy of 3400 kJ/kg.
