Sorption properties of hydrolyzed starch graft poly (acrylic acid) andstarch graft poly(acrylonitrile) copolymers as sorbents for the removal ofCd (II) and Cu(II) ions from aqueous solution in batch process wereassessed. The copolymers were prepared using methods as reported inliterature and were characterized in terms of morphology using scanningelectron microscopy, confirmation of sorbents produced using Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy and thermal stability usingthermogravimetric ana...
The effects of the application of the graft copolymers (Hydrolyzed starch-g-polyacrylonitrile (HSPAN) andHydrolyzed starch-g-polyacrylic acid (HSPAA)) on the nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) retention capacity of soil wasevaluated in this study. Soil nutrient (N and P) retention capacity tests was carried out at three graft copolymersapplication rates (3.0, 6.0, and 9.0g/kg soil) against a blank soil sample to which graft copolymers was not applied.Diammonium phosphate (DAP) at 0, 100, and 200...
The competitive sorption of Cu (II), Pb (II) and Cd (II) by graft copolymer of cassava starch and acrylic acid was investigated using the response surface methodology. Optimization of the medium conditions was studied through experimental design. Response surface methodology including central composite design was successfully applied to develop a response surface to optimize the medium conditions. The most influential medium parameters were determined as initial concentration, contact time an...
Hydrolyzed starch graft poly (acrylic acid) andstarch graft poly(acrylonitrile) copolymers were used as asorbents for the removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solution inbatch process. The sorbents were characterized by scanningelectron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopyand thermogravimetric analysis. The effect of contacttime, initial concentration and temperature were assessed tooptimize the conditions for maximum sorption of the metalions. The experimental data were analyzed by ...
Hydrolyzed starch graft copolymers of acrylic acid and acrylonitrile were used as a sorbents for the competitive removal of Pb (II), Cd (II) and Cu (II) ions from aqueous solution in batch process. The sorbents were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, wide-angle x-ray diffractometer and thermogravimetric analysis. The equilibrium sorption properties were assessed to optimize the conditions for maximum competitive sorption of the metal ions. ...
ABSTRACTThe main aim of any electric power supply in the world is to provide uninterrupted power supply at all times to all its consumers. Although, in developing countries, the electric power generated to meet the demands of the growing consumers of electricity is insufficient, hence power instability and outage.Power instability or outage in general does not promote development in the public and private sector. The investors do not feel secure to come into a country with constant or frequen...

ABSTRACTThis paper looked at indecent dressing, a dress pattern that is common among students of higher institutions of learning in Nigeria particularly, the female ones by examining the various forms that these dresses appear, reasons why these students dress indecently such as poor parenting, peer pressure, wrong use of the Internet, fading values as well as demonic influence among others. The negative consequences of dressing indecently were identified to include rape, prostitution, H...
ABSTRACTAlthough English language is now the language of government, business and commerce, education, the mass media, literature and internal as well as external communication, there are still problems in the teaching of English as a second language in secondary schools. Students presume that English language is a difficult language to learn and so do not make effort to learn it. Teachers also find it difficult to cope with the heavy demand required for effective teaching and learning of Eng...
ABSTRACTCivil Service as a government institution plays important part in insuring that government policies result in tangible services for the population. In fact, without the body of professional civil servants, national government cannot function effectively and efficiently. In Nigeria, the Federal Civil Service has been enmeshed in myriads of problems: weak governance structure, red-tapism, weak accountability, low professional standards, waste and corruption, poor productivity, and lack ...
