Digestion
the enzymatic breakdown of large insoluble organic molecules into small soluble organic molecules which can be absorbed and used by either aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms ...
Digestion: The biochemical decomposition of organic matter, resulting in partial gasification, liquefaction, and mineralization of pollutants.
Dike: A low wall that can act as a barrier to prevent a spill from spreading.
digestion
the biochemical decomposition of organic matter which results in the formation of mineral compounds and simple organic compounds.
DI water ...
digestion The process for decomposing organic matter in digesters resulting in the partial gasification, liquefaction, and mineralization of the total solids content.
Digestion Log: An official record of the sample preparation (digestion).
Dimensionality: The number (1,2,3) and orientation (vertical, areal, radial) of dimensions chosen when modelling aspects of the subsurface.
Anaerobic digestion
A process of biologically degrading organic materials in the absence of oxygen, yielding methane gas (that may be combusted to produce energy) and stabilised organic residues (that may be used as a soil additive)
Avoidance ...
Saprophyte An organism that carries out external digestion of non-living organic matter and absorbs the products across the plasma membrane of its cells (e.g. fungi). Savannah The tropical grassland biome.
Processes include aerobic conversion such as composting and anaerobic digestion which occurs in landfills and controlled reactors or digesters.
A mixture of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) produced by anaerobic digestion, with small amounts of other gases.
Methane, emitted by the digestion of food by animals, namely cattle.
Pine trees, which emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and oxygen.
Radon gas from earth minerals.
Smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) from wildfires.
A process that takes place in the absence of oxygen, such as the digestion of organic matter by bacteria in a UASB-reactor.
Anion
A negatively charged ion that results from the dissociation of salts, acids or alkali's in solution.
Defective nutrition due to inadequate intake of nutrients or to their faulty digestion, assimilation or metabolism.
Translations of "malnutrition":

English: ...
Methane is produced through anaerobic (without oxygen) decomposition of waste in landfills, animal digestion, decomposition of animal wastes, production and distribution of natural gas and petroleum, coal production, ...
Metabolism-literally, change. Any process in an organism that produces, changes, or breaks down a compound. Digestion is a process of metabolizing the foods taken into the body.
pinocytosis
Type of endocytosis in which soluble materials are taken up by the cell and incorporated into vesicles for digestion.

piscicide
Substance intended to kill fish.
The total phosphorous content of all material that will pass through a filter, which is determined as orthophosphate without prior digestion or hydrolysis. Also called soluble P. or ortho P.
Total Dissolved Solids ...
Total Dissolved Phosphorous: The total phosphorous content of all material that will pass through a filter, which is determined as orthophosphate without prior digestion or hydrolysis. Also called soluble P. or ortho P.
volatile acids. Acids produced during digestion. Fatty acids which are soluble in water and can be steam-distilled at atmospheric pressure. Also called "organic acids." Volatile acids are commonly reported as equivalent to acetic acid.
Fry often school strongly, but soon engage in territorial competition.
fungi a kingdom of non-photosynthetic, heterotrophic eukaryontes (e.g., mushrooms and molds) characterized by external digestion ...
