  2. Rhizofiltration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhizofiltration

    The feeder layer allows the plants to receive fertilizer without contaminating the stream, while simultaneously removing heavy metals from the water. [4] Trees have also been applied to remediation. Trees are the lowest cost plant type. They can grow on land of marginal quality and have long life-spans. This results in little or no maintenance ...

  3. Leaf protein concentrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaf_protein_concentrate

    Trees are generally considered a poor source of leaf mass for the production of LPC given restrictions on the ease of access. Fallen leaves/leaf litter have negligible protein-content and are of no extractive value. [6] Plants belonging to the Fabaceae family such as clover, peas and legumes have also been prime candidates for LPC production. [7]

  4. Scarification (botany) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarification_(botany)

    Hot water scarification can be combined with chemical scarification, but might require protective equipment against formed gases. Hot water treatment is also used for removal of pathogens. Placing seeds in 90 °C for 90 seconds followed by dip in cold water for 30 seconds kills the human pathogens Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella. [3]

  5. Water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purification

    This contaminated water can be disposed of, along with the sludge from the sedimentation basin, or it can be recycled by mixing with the raw water entering the plant although this is often considered poor practice since it re-introduces an elevated concentration of bacteria into the raw water. Some water treatment plants employ pressure filters.

  7. Reverse osmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_osmosis

    Sea-water RO (SWRO) desalination requires around 3 kWh/m 3, much higher than those required for other forms of water supply, including RO treatment of wastewater, at 0.1 to 1 kWh/m 3. Up to 50% of the seawater input can be recovered as fresh water, though lower recovery rates may reduce membrane fouling and energy consumption.

  9. Extract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extract

    The majority of concentrated fruit flavors, such as banana, cherry, peach, pineapple, raspberry, and strawberry, are produced by combining a variety of esters with special oils. Suitable coloring is generally obtained by the use of dyes. Among the esters most generally employed are ethyl acetate and ethyl butyrate.
