Residues

Residues

The strength of evidence and the potential magnitude of harm greatly exceed those of food contaminants or pesticide residues, which are appropriately regulated to very low levels.

Explosives (residues)

These amounts are called pesticide residues.

The result is heightened competition for residues.

21. Ecotoxicological research in the Antarctic is conducted to identify and monitor the worldwide distribution of contaminants and the effects of efforts to control contaminants.

Farmers are developing markets for forest residues and other wood by products.

Community Reference Laboratories for pesticide residues http www.crl pesticides.eu

Leaving crop residues on the soil changes the surface characteristics.

For example, chip packaging contains small amounts of radioactive contaminants.

Those explosions redistributed depleted uranium dust and other contaminants which were then carried downwind.

(iii) Developing rural industries through utilization of agricultural residues and processing of agricultural products

the residues will be minimised in quantity and harmfulness and recycled where appropriate the disposal of the residues which cannot be prevented, reduced or recycled will be carried out in conformity with national and Community legislation.

It increases rainfall efficiency, as water gets caught by and then percolates through the residues and soil.

The alpha and beta isomers are contaminants of lindane and have similar properties to the gamma isomer.

Saudi Arabia asserts that, as a result of Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait, a large proportion of its population was exposed to (a) contaminants from the oil well fires (b) contaminants from oil spills (c) contaminants from vehicle emissions and disturbance of the desert areas by military activities and (d) acts of violence and other traumatic events during the invasion and occupation.

Some stoves use dust or residues from processed rice, maize and other crops or from sawdust.

It was the most unstable region and residues of the quot cold war quot still remained there.

Iran submitted the results of an atmospheric and air quality model that it used to calculate the transport of contaminants from the oil well fires to demonstrate that some of the contaminants reached the territory of Iran.

The residues of bitter conflict are there, and unless the peoples and States of the Middle East are fully taken care of, those residues will constitute real obstacles which will make difficult the achievement of the goal we all aspire after.

Research increasingly suggests that airborne contaminants can have subtle but significant effects on early neurological development and behavior.

Generated run off is less erosive and less polluting as crop residues reduce sediment transport into river waters.

The effective disposal of those contaminants will require their permanent isolation from the human biosphere.

Osmium residues are reacted with Na2O2 forming anions, which, when reacted with chlorine (Cl2) gas and heated, form OsO4.

The amounts of residues found in food must be safe for consumers and must be as low as possible.

Meetings of the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues and panels of experts continue to address these topics (FAO, WHO and UNEP).

This will include prevention of groundwater contamination by pesticides and safe disposal practices and establishment of relevant standards of pesticide residues.

Aspergillus species are common contaminants of starchy foods (such as bread and potatoes), and grow in or on many plants and trees.

If sawnwood is planed, that will generate additional, high quality residues since planer shavings are dry.

Many of these contaminants can be hard to remove from drinking water using standard purification techniques.

Research increasingly suggests that airborne contaminants can have subtle but significant effects on early neurological development and behavior, she says.

However, with competition for residues between panel and energy producers, residue prices in the Baltics increased by 20 in 2004.

Because new EU rules allow testing imported fish for mercury levels and other contaminants, import restrictions and declining demands may soon result.

Furthermore, FAO and IAEA collaborate on research in tracing pesticide residues and use of the sterile insect technique for controlling some pests.

At the same time, aquifers tapped for domestic use increasingly have unsafe levels of naturally occurring contaminants, including arsenic and fluoride.

Most contaminants are coliform bacteria and faecal streptococcus, and among chemical ones, there are ammonia, nitrates, nitrites, rare heavy metals and other toxic agents.

Pitman and her Waorani partners extracted samples from both anacondas and bushmeat, which the scientist tests for contaminants stemming from upstream oil exploration.

In determining incompatibility, consider the substances, containers, and contaminants that the substance or mixture might be exposed to during transportation, storage and use.

In determining incompatibility, consider the substances, containers and contaminants that the substance or mixture might be exposed to during transportation, storage and use.

A variant may also be envisaged, namely, adequate ventilation of transport units to enable gas residues to be eliminated, by removing any leakproof materials fixed on or in transport units for fumigation purposes, so that possible gas residues can escape.

Particle board manufacturers consumed approximately 24 roundwood, with the remanding volumes being either sawmill residues or recovered wood.

Marine species at risk from overfishing must also contend with pervasive pollution from plastics, sewage, industrial chemicals, agricultural runoff and other contaminants.
