Featured Application
The algorithms provided in this work can be applied in most scenarios where fluids and water-soluble substances, e.g., salts, are mixed to meet certain requirements. Examples include hydroponics and aquaponics.
Abstract
Controlled environment agriculture is a promising alternative to conventional production methods, as it is l...
Source-separated, nitrified, and decontaminated human urine constitutes a promising plant fertilizer that contains a large share of the nitrogen and phosphorus in household wastewater, and other plant nutrients. However, human urine contains high levels of sodium and chloride that can affect salt-sensitive greenhouse crops. Replacing mineral fertil...
An increasing amount of greenhouse vegetables is produced using hydroponic systems. The used mineral fertilizers are often generated in energy consuming processes (esp. nitrate in Haber-Bosch) or gained from finite resources (esp. phosphate rock). Recovering the respective nutrients from waste streams is a promising option to make crop production m...
Postharvest losses of fresh vegetables are mostly caused by microbial infections. Furthermore, contamination of raw-consumed fruits and vegetables with human pathogens may lead to serious foodborne illness. Washing with tap water reduces the total number of produce surface attached microorganisms by only 1–2 log. Addition of sanitizers to washing w...
The inclusion of higher plants in bio-regenerative
life support systems has been suggested to contribute
to a nutritious menu, increase food acceptability and
provide psychological benefits to the crew. In 2017, the
EDEN ISS project will deploy a greenhouse module to
the Neumayer Station III in Antarctica. This system will
be used to advance bio-re...
In developing tomato compound leaves, local auxin maxima points, separated by expression of the Aux/IAA protein SlIAA9/ENTIRE (E), direct the formation of discrete leaflets along the leaf margin. The local auxin maxima promote leaflet initiation, while E acts between leaflets to inhibit auxin signal and lamina growth, enabling leaflet separation. H...
