Fracking is a terrible business because it takes millions of gallons of freshwater to frack one well, fracking fluid could leak into farm fields and destroy the soil that crops grow in, and it can cause negative effects on human and animal health. Fracking or hydraulic fracturing is a newer way of extracting natural gas or oil locked away thousands of feet below the surface trapped in permeable shale rock. Freshwater is mixed with solids like sand and other fracturing chemicals. This creates fracking

IMPROPER SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT: A CASE STUDY AT BARANGAY 19, SAMPAGUITA STREET BATANGAS CITY Introduction Solid Waste Management refers to the collecting, treating, and disposing of solid material that is discarded because it has served its purpose or is no longer useful. Improper disposal of municipal solid waste can create unsanitary conditions, and these conditions in turn can lead to pollution of the environment and to outbreaks of vector-borne disease—that is, diseases spread by rodents

chosen conveyor model is the short-pitch screw. Due to the short length it was also possible to use the shaft-less or even standard model. However, a short-pitch screw is used in incline and the pitch is less than diameter of the screw. In this case study it is not required any another special characteristic for the screw. Determine: i) The required screw diameter (mm), According to Table D - 30%B, the screw

2001 Abstract An experimental dryer was developed for determining the kinetics of black tea drying. Drying characteristics of tea were examined using heated ambient air for the temperature range 80–120°C and air flow velocity range 0.25–0.65 m/s. The data of sample weight, dry- and wet-bulb temperatures and air velocity of the drying air were recorded continuously during each test. The drying data were then fitted to the different semi-theoretical models such as Lewis, Page, modified Page, two-term and

Paper II: Biological Study 1. Abstract 2. Introduction In recent years, stable isotope records in speleothems (i.e., calcium carbonate deposits found in caves) have become more and more important as proxies of past climate variability (e.g., Spotl and Mangini (2002), Fleitmann et al. (2004), Harmon et al. (2004)). Speleothems, whiczare found in most continental areas provide high resolution records and can be precisely dated by U-series (Scholz and Hoffmann (2008))
