Abstract In the present era of rapid industrialization and development of infrastructure projects, the natural resources are becoming scarce and hence their cost is increasing alarmingly. For an infrastructural project the soil consumption is very high and also specific soil is to be used for the requirements of its strength, durability etc. Locally available soil is the best option for these projects, if the suitable soil is not nearby it has a stringent effect on overall cost of project. Due to increase of demand for land in urban areas, soils which are weak and not suitable for foundations are to be effectively modified for construction of industries. Hence, there is a need to carryout research for an alternate material which is available in plenty and also gives desired strength upon modifications. There is a growing awareness allover the world about the extensive damage caused by the accumulated industrial wastes at various plants. This paper highlights various issues and scope for utilization of spent wash in engineering practice. This paper presents the results of index and engineering properties of blended soils. Studies are carried out by varying soil gradation, spent wash content under different curing time periods. For study two types of soils are taken and their properties are studied up on addition of 25% spent wash maintaining different curing periods of 2, 4 and 6 weeks. It was observed that spent wash is effective in reducing plasticity characteristics and increasing engineering properties namely, dry density and the unconfined strength of soil and reducing Optimum moisture content Index Terms: Effluent, Tropical, spentwash, blended

This document summarizes how Facebook pages have evolved over time and the key changes introduced with Facebook's new timeline feature. It outlines 8 important facts about the timeline layout for brands, including a larger cover photo and profile picture, changes to tabs and apps, and new features like pinned posts. It then discusses the motives behind frictionless sharing across apps and the potential positive and negative consequences for brands, advertising, and user privacy. The document raises questions about how these changes might impact engagement and targeting on Facebook.
The document discusses opportunities to increase happiness at different levels including companies, cities, and communities. It argues that happier companies see benefits like 37% higher sales, 31% greater productivity, and 87% less turnover. Happier cities can accelerate collisions and co-learning between people which can lead to innovation. Global communities focused on shared visions of happiness can unite people across backgrounds. The document advocates making happiness a top priority and using a happiness lens to address issues like aging, security, and more.

La clínica está experimentando problemas debido a la falta de un sistema de información integral que permita el acceso y el procesamiento rápido de datos en todas las áreas. Se propone implementar un sistema de información basado en computadoras que permita almacenar, acceder y compartir datos de forma remota para agilizar la toma de decisiones, mejorar la facturación, integrar la contabilidad con otras áreas y satisfacer las necesidades de los usuarios de manera más rápida.
The document discusses the removal of phosphate from wastewater using low-cost adsorbents. It examines the use of alum sludge, coal ash, class C fly ash, and ground granulated blast furnace slag to remove phosphates through adsorption. Batch and column tests were conducted to determine optimum conditions and adsorption capacities. The batch studies analyzed the effect of pH, dosage, and contact time on phosphate removal. Optimum pH and dosages were identified for each adsorbent. Column tests measured breakthrough curves and saturation times. Results showed the adsorbents were effective at removing phosphates from synthetic wastewater, with performance varying based on initial phosphate concentration and adsorbent type.

This document summarizes research on using System of Rice Intensification (SRI) methods in Iraq to increase water savings and rice yields. The research found that using SRI with 3-day or 7-day intervals between irrigation used 50% and 72% less water than continuous submergence, and increased yields by 20% and 11% respectively. SRI with 3-day intervals also had the highest water productivity and net economic return, making it a promising strategy for Iraq's water-deficit conditions. The document recommends wider adoption of SRI through incentives, mechanization support, and collaboration with water user associations.

Title: Sistema Intensivo del Cultivo del Arroz para la Producción y Sustentabilidad del Rubro
Willem A. Stoop presents on ecological intensification lessons learned from the System of Rice Intensification (SRI). He discusses two approaches to intensification - conventional using modern varieties, dense planting, irrigation, and chemicals, and ecological using local varieties, low seeding rates, and organic inputs. SRI is presented as an example of an agro-ecological approach using practices like young seedlings, wide spacing, and alternate wetting and drying of soils. SRI results in increased growth, yields, and resilience through enhanced root and soil biology. However, SRI challenges conventional agricultural sciences' focus on increasing planting densities and fertilizer use over soil health and plant spacing.

1. African farmers today are more educated, connected, market-oriented, and aware of issues like climate change than previous generations. They are also more open to new ideas and collective action approaches.
2. Efforts to improve agriculture must consider rural-to-urban migration trends in Africa. While migration is driven by rural challenges, the younger generation remaining in rural areas is more educated and eager for progressive agriculture.
3. Things that should be avoided include mechanization tied to large-scale capital-intensive operations, land grabs, and agricultural models that turn farmers into laborers with no opportunity for management roles. Monoculture and large-scale foreign-owned farming should also be avoided.
