“The people that Chevron put in charge do not have the capacity. They put the program in the hands of thieves who are not transparent and accountable for the money spent. Itsekiri have educated people and chevron finds it convenient to deal with illiterates”, he says.

There was some discussion about the cost and who should cover it during Tuesday’s special meeting. Manager Steve Bousema said the district shouldn’t have to pay for any of the repairs — that it should fall on the companies who designed and constructed it.

Scientists have been experimenting with bacteria to quicken the extraction of jute and improve the quality of the fibres to yield softer fabrics. A special digital printing technique developed in the lab could allow jute to replace plastic in banners and advertisements, the researchers say.

Prime Minister Modi’s message of cleanliness will be at display prominently and put to work during the Kumbh Mela. If the execution matches the planning, we will witness the cleanest ever Kumbh in the history of modern India. The Yogi Adityanath government deserves two cheers for the preparation. Let’s reserve the third for implementation.

Geotextiles are inexpensive and thus preferred for various functions such as separation, filtration, reinforcement, protection and drainage in civil engineering applications, due to which the global geotextile market is expected to grow during the forecast period. Global geotextile market is forecast to propel during the forecast period due to expected growth in the construction and agriculture industries. Properties such as flexibility and permeability of geotextiles are expected to fuel the growth of the global geotextiles market during the forecast period. Durability and cost effectiveness is also expected to fuel the growth of the global geotextile market during the forecast period. Geotextiles industry players are constantly innovating the geotextiles, due to government push and to increase their market share in the global market, which is expected drive the global geotextile during the forecast period.

Most of the companies involved in the production of global geotextiles market focus on innovation of new product development and acquisitions with already established and local players to reinforce distribution network and market reach across the globe. Major players of global geotextiles industry includes GSE Holdings Inc., Fibertex Nonwovens A/S, CTM GEO Synthetics, Huesker Synthetic GmbH,  The Dow Chemical Company, Kaytech Engineered Fabrics, Royal Ten Cate Corporate EMEA, Low & Bonar PLC., Tenax and Leggett & Platt Incorporated.

“They use different paving machines or compaction machines, or in the case of a mill and overlay, the milling machines behind those,” says Nelson. “It could be any kind of machine. Some may just use a front-end loader and mount it on there and be able to drive and unroll it that way.” 

However, unlike the filing of a Form S-1 (and a related filing, Form 8-A) in an IPO, the filing of a Super 8-K by itself does not allow a company to sell its shares to the public. This is because the information contained in a Super 8-K only achieves the registration of a class of securities (such as common stock), rather than a specific number of individual securities (such as shares drawn from the class of securities designated common stock). In other words, the class of “common stock” is registered only one time with the SEC, but batches of individual shares from that class must be registered for sale with the SEC each time a company seeks to raise funds from the public through the sale of its shares.

We can look at greenhouse light levels, compare them to the levels in an ideal HPS-driven indoor facility and infer the yield potential of that greenhouse relative to the indoor facility. For this comparison, the light levels delivered to plants in an ideal indoor facility (represented in the charts above) are HPS lamps set at a known distance from the canopy and left on for 12 hours. That light level is measured with a meter, at the known distance, and that measurement becomes a reference point, for which we set the value on the charts as "one."

“The research was focused on adding enough plastic so as to make the additions worthwhile in terms of providing a use for the waste, but at the same time not so much as to reduce the concrete strength to an extent which makes it too weak for structural applications,” Dr Richard Ball, from Bath’s Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering, told The Engineer. “10 per cent by volume additions of plastic could save 820 million tonnes of sand every year from being used in concrete mixes.”

“The plastic we use in the mixes are by-products of other industrial processes,” he explained. “As an example – the manufacture of plastic optical lenses for glasses produces finely ground plastic waste which would normally be sent to landfill or incinerated. So you could argue there is no extra energy required to then use this material in concrete, we are making use of a waste material from other processes.”
