Seawater, when equilibrated with a sample of No. 2 fuel oil, becomes toxic in varying degrees to growth of representative types of microalgae, two blue-greens, a diatom, two greens, and a dinoflagellate. For a sensitive organism such as Thalassiosira pseudonana, Strain 3H, 5 ml of seawater equilibra

An eight-hour exposure of Diploria strigosa (Dana) to a mixture of Arabian Light crude oil (19ppm) and the chemical dispersant "Corexit 9527" (1 ppm) in a flowing seawater system reduced photosynthesis by symbiotic zooxanthellae by 85 %, while either oil or dispersant alone had no effect. The greate
The effect of a coconut oil as diesel fuel alternatives or as direct fuel blends are investigated using a single-cylinder, direct-injection diesel engine. The spray characteristics in terms of the mean droplet diameter of these fuels were measured with a phase Doppler Anemometer. Operation of the te
Equations are proposed to correlate the nitrogen consumption rate, the nitrogen concentration and the cell concentration during batch cultiva tion of CancULda g~mondE~L on diesel oil and on molasses. The propo sed equations can be explained by means of known kilnetic models.
