Impactos del riego con aguas cloacales en las propiedades del suelo de una granja en China: Una revisión
El agua limpia es un recurso valioso y juega un rol importante en mantener los desarrollos económico y social. La limitación de recursos hídricos ciertamente no permitirá un desarrollo sostenible de las industrias básicas en China en un futuro cercano, considerando su gran población y potencial de consumo. La aplicación de aguas cloacales, hasta cierto punto, se observó como un camino alternativo para resolver el problema de la escasez de agua en agricultura en algunas áreas (tales como en el Norte de China). Sin embargo, acompañado con una implementación extensiva de riego con aguas cloacales, algunos problemas se hicieron obvios, especialmente aquellos relacionados con la contaminación y destrucción de granjas. En este manuscrito se revisaron los efectos del riego con aguas cloacales en granjas en China sobre algunas características físicas (densidad aparente del suelo, resistencia del suelo a la penetración y capacidad de campo), químicas (pH, materia orgánica del suelo, nitrógeno, fósforo, potasio, metales pesados y contaminantes orgánicos) y biológicas de suelo (microorganismos del suelo, y actividad enzimática). Esto se basó en el grado actual de utilización del riego con aguas cloacales de las granjas de China. Se propusieron algunas sugerencias posibles con respecto a las perspectivas de desarrollo en el futuro. Esta revisión será benéfica para promover un desarrollo saludable del riego con aguas cloacales y proveer un apoyo teórico para el reclamo y un gran uso eficiente de los efluentes en China.Fresh water is a valuable nonrenewable resource and plays an important role in maintaining economic and social development. Considering its large population and consumption potential, water resource deficits will certainly not allow a sustainable development of basic industries in China in the near future. Application of sewage irrigation, to some extent, was regarded as an alternative way to solve the problem of agricultural water shortage in some areas (such as North China). However, accompanied with an extensive implementation of sewage irrigation, some problems with sewage irrigation became gradually obvious in agriculture, especially those related with pollution and destruction of farmlands. In this paper, the effects of sewage irrigation on soil physical (soil bulk density, soil resistance to penetration and field capacity), chemical (pH, soil organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, heavy metal and organic pollutants) and biological characteristics (soil microorganisms and enzyme activities) were systematically reviewed on farmlands in China, based on the current utilization status of China’s farmland sewage irrigation. Some feasible suggestions were put forward to the development prospects in the future. This review will be beneficial for promoting a healthy development of sewage irrigation and providing a theoretical support for reclamation and a high efficiency use of effluents in China.Fil: Li, Q.K..

Physicochemical characterisation of cellulose from perennial ryegrass leaves (Lolium perenne).
In this study, we investigated the physicochemical properties of the cellulosic preparations obtained from both untreated perennial ryegrass leaves and de-juiced leaves. It was found that treatment at 22 degrees C with 18% NaOH and 18% KOH for 2h, and 10% NaOH and 10% KOH for 16 h yielded 28.2%, 28.8%, 22.7%, 23.4%, respectively, of 'cellulose' residue from untreated ryegrass leaves and 35.7%, 36.8%, 32.8% and 34.6%, respectively, from the de-juiced leaves. For each cellulosic fraction, the glucose content was 71.6%, 69.6%, 67.8%, 66.7%, 69.7%, 68.6%, 63.9% and 61.7%, respectively. The structure of the cellulose samples was examined using FTIR and CP/MAS (13)C NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The cellulosic preparations were free of bound lignin except for noticeable amounts of residual hemicelluloses (28.4-38.3%), and had intrinsic viscosities between 275.1 and 361.0 mL/g, along with molecular weights from 144,130 to 194,930 g/mol. This study found that the cellulose samples isolated from both de-juiced ryegrass leaves and the untreated leaves had a much lower percent crystallinity (33.0-38.6%) than that from wood-based fibres (60-70%) and had much shorter fibres (0.35-0.49 mm) than those of either cereal straws, bagasse or wood. In addition, a partial disruption of the hydrogen bonds and microfibrils may occur during the de-juicing process by mechanical activity, which results in a decreased cellulose crystallinity and fibre length. These findings are significant in relation to hydrolysing ryegrass cellulose for bio-ethanol production
Laser beam energy dependence of martensitic transformation in SLM fabricated NiTi shape memory alloy
International audienceIn this study, a near equiatomic NiTi alloy was fabricated by selective laser melting method (SLM). The effects of laser power and scanning speed on the tensile properties, shape memory properties and microstructure were comparatively investigated. Since the shape memory NiTi alloy can be characterized by its martensitic start phase transformation (Ms temperature) and by its critical stress inducing martensitic transformation (σc), the evolution of these two parameters was investigated as the function of the delivered laser beam energy by differential scanning calorimetry and tensile tests. It was observed that the increase of the scanning speed under a certain laser power and the increase of the laser power under a certain laser beam energy density promote an increase of the critical stress (σc) and a decrease of the Ms temperature. Consequently, high laser beam energy suppresses the formation of the martensitic B19’ phase and therefore stabilizes the austenitic B2 phase. XRD and TEM observations confirm the dependence of the B2 and B19’ phase formation with the processing parameters. On the other hand, the relationship between the Ms temperature and the critical stress σc was also plotted in good accordance with the Clausius–Clapeyron equation. Two new coefficients called “Energy Dependence Coefficient of martensitic transformation Temperature (EDCT)” and “Energy Dependence Coefficient of critical Stress (EDCS)” were defined and calculated to describe the laser beam energy dependence of the martensitic phase transformation. These two new thermodynamic coefficients are thus very suitable to establish a link between the machine parameters (through the delivered laser beam energy) and the nature of the material (through the martensitic transformation) in the NiTi alloy fabricated by SLM
