ABSTRACT

Environmenial education is a new interdisciplinary studyfield which was composed oftwo different scientific inquiry. one is environmenıal science based on physica! science, and the other is education based on hehavioral sciences. The objective of environmenial education is to set up a healthy communication and dialog between human heing and natural world in cognitive level so that the outiome should be to produce attitude and behaviour noi harmful to himselfand nature. it also aimsfor defining cultural, political, sociological, psychological and economic factors affeeting human behaviour at environmenial subjects. The problem in environmenıal education research is that ali researchers have hammered M'itli only one research paradigm called positivism (like a hammer) for years as if ali topics of inauiry were nails. To overeome this. researchers in this field suggest to use interpretive paradigm. By doing analogy. when a screwdrıver instead of hammer is most appropriate, use it. Environmenial knowledge transfer model should inelude rich sample material and background knowledge and historical dımension for each subjecl. Environmenıal education is primarly an inguıry in the sphere of human ecology rather than nature ecology. Basic answer from this inquiry is not to make any irreversible changes in nature consciously. Children can not be educated to solve tomorrows environmenial problems. However, they may given a help in terms of gaining basic imellectual skills essential to solving environmenial problems and keeping sensiuvity tovmrds environmenıal issues such as comunkation, thinking, problem defining and solving, decision making and research skills ete.

ABSTRACT

Studies ar e conducted to upgrade the wastewater reclamatıon and reuse system of a waste paper process industry (Onduline Avrasya Company) located in Sakarya. No operaıional problem was observed due to reuse of the reclaimed vvastevvater. Quality of the products were as good as those manufactured by use offresh water. In-plant control, reclamation and reuse ofwastewater, proposed treaıment plaııt dimensions mil be reduced and economy wıll be provided in the investment, managemem and water supply. As a result, some changes in the units and ın-plant control due to reuse ofwastewater show that wastewaıer and pollıttion loads will be reduced signifıcantly. in addition, reclamation and reuse of wastewater from Industries play the most important role to prevent environment and water resources.

ABSTRACT

In this study, it is choosed 5 different chracteristic places in Bursa far one year and it is investigaıed the density of the bacterial groups. İt is observed 4297 colony on the 70 Blood Ağar plates. The most freauently encountered bacterial groups are Gram negative rods, Gram positive cocci. Gram positive rods and Gram negative coccobaiılli.

ABSTRACT

n this study, the effects of the media conditions on the adsorption of lead (II) ions to Rarrhizus were investigated in a batch reactor. it was observed that initial pH, temperature, the initial lead (II) ions concentrations and the microorganism concentrations affected initial adsorption rates. Optimum adsorption conditions werefound to be pH=4.0-4.5, temperature 30°C, initial lead (II) ions concentration 100 mg/l and microorganism concentration 0.25 g/l. The adsorption of lead (II) ions to Rarrhizus fitted Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms.

ABSTRACT

This study was done on 8 wood decaying macrofungi species. which grown on diverse planı species around Van Lake. The macrofungi species determined in the area are following; Lentinis tigrinus, L. cyathiformis, Phellinus pomaceus, Inonotus hispidus, Ganoderma applanatum, Fomes fomentarius, Funalia trogii and Schizophyllum commune.

Keywords: One ofthese species, Lentinus cyathiformis (Schaeff.) Breş. (Pleurotaceae) is new record for Turkey
