It has long been known that mountain glacier water has special properties. It was found that such water contains fewer molecules with the heavy isotope of hydrogen - deuterium. On Earth, there are constant evaporation-condensation processes. The resulting protium water falls as rain. It is noted that the body of animals, as well as tropical fruits and vegetables containing water with an isotopic composition close to the composition of rainwater into these areas. When the nuclear industry began to produce heavy water, a byproduct of the production was the light water, which had a lower content of deuterium. Over a lifetime, a person drinks about 80 tons of water. As a result, the body receives 12-16 g deuterium and associated oxygen isotope 18O. This leads to damage to the genes, premature aging and the development of cancer. Numerous studies have identified a positive impact of light water on the growth of plants and living organisms. The biological effects of light water include the ability to optimize the biological reaction rate, the stimulation of cell division, radioprotective properties and antimutagenic effect. In Russia and abroad patented several methods and devices for producing light water, with severe medical and cosmetic properties. This water has become popular among the population. It has a higher value in comparison with typical drinking water. The article describes one of such units. In order to achieve its goals there occurs treatment of drinking water and low electromagnetic field is extremely low frequency. This plant is used to produce food protium water in the laboratory. It allows you to clean tap water from the deuterium content of tritium, salts and contaminants
The article deals with the issues of comparing the terms of ACS and IS with reference to automation in agriculture. In the technical literature, at conferences, in educational disciplines of higher education institutions, such terms as: information systems (IS), information technologies (IT), automated control systems (ACS) are often encountered. These terms are widely applied to the relevant objects in the subject areas under consideration. The area of coverage of the objects using these terms is very wide and in each case the definition of the applied term is either not specified at all considered self-explanatory, or the term is defined with various levels of detalization. In the latter case, the thoughtful researcher falls into some confusion or generally tries not to touch upon this question. In the article, on the basis of a review of known literary sources, it is shown which concepts are denoted by these terms when considering automation issues in agriculture. The subject of the study is the use of the terms IT, IS, ACS in works on automation in agriculture. The subject of the study is questions of comparison of the terms ACS and IS. The aim of the study is to indicate that automated IS is a more general concept than ACS
The problem of environmental protection from the contamination by toxic products, contained in the exhaust gases, is one of the most topical in the modern world.
Nitrogen oxides and soot particles are the most toxic.
Getting into the environment and the human body, they cause heavy chronic disease and significantly impair the quality of animal and plant products. The developed gas purification system SCR, the technology of plasma purification of exhaust gases have not found wide practical applications because of their high value.
The study of papers dedicated to reducing exhaust gas toxicity shows that the use of combined means of purification, which usually include mechanical, thermal and catalytic methods of purification, is the most effective. Our work deals with the issue of purifying the diesel engine exhaust from fine particulate matter resulting in the combustion of fuel and oil motor partly.
The article notes that the carbon is not magnetic, so the use of a magnetic field acting as an agent for the purification of exhaust gas from the carbon soot particles is impossible. The purification in a centrifugal field requires the creation of structurally complex centrifuges, so it is ineffective. We consider the possibility of purifying the exhaust gases from the soot particles in the electrostatic field. The device presents the collecting electrode, which is shaped as a cylinder, and an axial central electrode, which is mounted on an insulated spacer within the cylindrical body. The study deals with the physical and mathematical simulation of processes occurring in the proposed device of the purification of exhaust gases. The equality of the Coulomb force and the Stoks force determines the magnitude of the electrostatic field strength that is necessary for the purification of exhaust gas from the soot particles. We have identified the desired length of the collecting electrode
When combustion of fuel in thermal power plants,
combustion products are formed, which contain: fly
ash, particles of unburnt pulverized fuel, sulfuric and
sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, gaseous products of
incomplete combustion, sodium salts, soot particles,
calcium dioxide, etc. Getting into the atmosphere, they
cause great harm to the components of the biosphere.
The article presents a laboratory analysis of industrial
emissions into the atmosphere of 1-7 power units for
2015 and 2016 at Novocherkassk State District Power
Plant. The components NO2, NO, CO, SO2, C (soot)
have been determined. It is established that for the
whole observed period of excess of maximum
permissible emissions was not revealed. Emissions of
each of the components are within the same level and
are stable
The article describes the current state of the transition
to paperless exchange of documented information. The
general trend of application of information
technologies in the field of document management is
linked to the concepts of "electronic government" and
"information society". The article gives an overview of
the legal and regulatory framework the concept of
"electronic government" in Russia. We present the
dynamics of modern forms of communication and
creating unified information space to ensure efficient,
effective interaction of society and the state, including
the transition to work with documents in electronic
form, on education and science. The author has
conducted a detailed analysis of the functioning of the
module of "Interaction" between the Ministry of
education and science and its subordinate
organizations; we have also identified technological
features of exchange document information. Based on
the analysis, we give the evaluation of the
implementation of the module of "Interaction"; we
emphasize the urgency and high efficiency of
information exchange, as well as comfort for users
The article is devoted to the estimation of the
dependence of perennial grass herbage’s productivity
on the dose and distribution of nitrogen fertilizers
during the vegetation, as well as from the dynamics of
the species composition by years of use. It was
revealed that for cocksfoot-timothy grass mixture an
increase in the rate of nitrogen fertilizer for every 10
kg of active ingredient leads to an increase of yield by
0.27 tons/ha. The selection of components of grass
mixtures and rational fertilizer doses forms the herbage
which provides a yield of about 7,0-12,0 tons/ha of dry
mass and 58,1-99,6 GJ of energy exchange. It is
established that competitive relations in grass mixtures
are exacerbated with increasing doses of fertilizers.
The timothy grass develops successfully in a mixture
with the cocksfoot with a low level of mineral nutrition
(N80). A high level of mineral nutrition speeds up the
formation of single-species herbage - the cocksfoot.
Meadow fescue grass provides sustainable yields on
medium and high backgrounds of mineral fertilizers in
combination with the cocksfoot. Recommendations for
a nitrogen dose of more than 200 kg per hectare for
fertilizing mixed grass crops with the cocksfoot and
about 100 kg per hectare for clover-cereals mixtures
without cocksfoot are suggested
Sorghum is cultivated in many countries of the world
on around 50 ml hectares. The main producers of
sorghum are India, Nigeria, Sudan and the USA.
Sorghum comes from equatorial Africa. India and
China are the secondary places of origin and formation.
The USA achieved great success in breeding, seedgrowing
and agro technologies of grain sorghum. In the
country sorghum occupies 14.4% of the world amount
of sowing areas; the gross yield is 40%. Sorghum
breeding on Don was started by E.S. Yakushevsky in
1938. In 1963 after a long break the work was restarted
at the Zernograd Breeding Station headed by Ya.I.
Issakov. At present the amount of sowing areas for
sorghum is constantly increasing in RF (220.3 thousand
ha in 2015). It occurs due to aridity of climate and more
frequent use of the crop as insurance. Besides, the
development of white kernel varieties gave an
opportunity to use sorghum for starch and spirit. There
are 221 varieties and hybrids of sorghum registered in
the State List. The main directions of breeding work
with grain sorghum are early maturity, suitability for
mechanical harvesting, productivity and grain quality.
The ARRIGC developed the white kernel early
maturing varieties ‘Velikan’, ‘Zernogradskoe 88’,
‘Ataman’ without necessity to be dried after harvesting,
with productivity of 8 t/ha. The main directions of breeding work with sweet sorghum are early maturity,
high intensity of initial growth, low height, resistance to
lodging, high productivity and quality of green chop.
The ARRIGC developed the varieties for fodder use
(‘Listvenit’), for spirit and treacle (‘Debyut’ and
‘Zernogradsky Yantar’). Sorghum due to origin and
varietal diversity even in dry and hot parts of the world
allow obtaining stable, high yields of grain and green
chop. This makes sorghum the leading grain-forage and
food crop
Petrovsky garden was founded in 1703 and is the most
important historical object of landscape architecture in
Petrozavodsk. Tikhon Balandin made a description and
drawing of Petrovsky garden at the beginning of the
19th century. He completed his work by studying and
measuring the fragments of the earthen fortress, blast
furnace and the location of the destroyed palace, pond
and birch garden. On the basis of the historical
documents, we created a 3D model of Petrovsky
garden using of modern computer-aided design. Threedimensional
model of the garden allows viewing the
object from different angles, gives an idea about
structure and compositions of the garden on a new
visual level. Some examples of visualization garden
fragments were presented at the article. Now the
garden doesn’t have its original structure. The
historical garden layout and 3D model of object can be
used for reconstruction of Petrovsky garden
With the possible radioactive contamination of the
territory, as a result of emergency situations at
enterprises of the nuclear fuel cycle, there occurs a
task of further use of the soil for agricultural purposes.
Researches on the cultivation on contaminated areas of
fruit plants in the conditions of the Krasnodar region
were not carried out. As a result of the experiment in
the field we received experimental material on
migration and 90Sr accumulation in vegetative and
generative organs of cherry-plum. Research lasted for
8 years. The accumulation of 90Sr, placed on the
surface of the soil, in the bark, wood, leaves, and fruit
was 7,0×102
; 4,8×102
; 9,7×102
and 1.8 ×102Bq/kg.
With the penetration of 90Sr in soil at 50 cm
accumulation in the bark, wood, leaves, and fruit were:
5,1×102
; 3,0×102
; 6,9×102
; 1,4×102Bq/kg. The
experimental material obtained in the field makes it
possible to calculate the coefficients of the nuclide
transition from polluted soil to the various organs of
the studied plant and to make a forecast of the possible
use of contaminated areas for the cultivation of fruit
crops. Radioactive contaminated areas cannot be left
without proper control, since, firstly, non-planted
fields are exposed to wind and water erosion of soils,
which leads to rapid and large-scale pollution of the
environment and, secondly, if it is possible to obtain
products from such fields, this should be done for
economic reasons
The results of the study of physiological and biochemical parameters of plum plants, changing when infecting plants Plum pox potyvirus (PPV) are shown. It was found that the infected leaves at the stage of full development of the content chlorophyll a reduced by 30 % in variety Stanley and by 6 % in Kabardinskaya rannaya, chlorophyll b in less than 49 % at Stanley, 37% in Kabardinskaya rannaya, carotenoids are less than 22 % in the variety Stanley and by 11% in the variety Kabardinskaya rannaya . Leaves infected with the virus pox (PPV), in comparison with not infected, the amount of protein were decreasing: in the variety Stanley by 21 %, in the variety Kabardinskaya rannaya by 28 %. In the period of active growth of the leaves change in the content of pigments and protein is more intense. The content of lignin in the tissues of leaves, infected with the virus pox (PPV), in comparison with not infected in the variety Stanley was below on 13 % and in the variety Kabardinskaya rannaya - 8 %. The total content of water of infected tissue on the stage of a full-time development is reduced in patients leaves as compared with not infected 11 % in the variety Stanley and by 1 % in the variety of Kabardinskaya rannaya. Throughout the period of development of foliage studied parameters vary depending on the variety
