Indubitably the most challenging coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreak, caused by SARS-CoV-2. With the number of Covid-19 cases now approaching millions globally so, for controlling the current infection rate, we have come up with this innovation of virus repellent electric liquid vaporizer means by vaporization of the solution which is the in-liquid form by means of electricity, which will enable the infectious virus and bacteria to be less effective also it will sometime kill the virus in a small...
AbstractThe aim of this article is to reduce food loss in the form of soymilk residue generated during production and processing of soymilk and tofu from soybeans by Preparation and method development of utilizing this soymilk residue into nutritious, more healthy, low cost and full of protein flour compared to other grain flour and probiotic beverage. SOYKASU will definitely play an important role as it contributes in health and agriculture as well as help us in waste man...

ABSTRACT. The surface charge density (σo) of colloidal alpha-alumina suspended in various 1:1 electrolytes was measured using acid-base titration. An auto titrator capable of dispensing accurately 25 ± 0.1 µL of titrant was used. The pH and temperature in the titration cell were monitored using single-junction electrodes and platinum resistance thermometers, respectively. A constant supply of nitrogen gas in the cell was used to maintain inert conditions. The whole set-up was interface...
ABSTRACT A novel low-temperature glycerolysis process for lowering free fatty acid (FFA) in crude jatropha oil for alkali catalyzed transesterification has been developed. The response surface methodology (RSM) based on the central composite design was used to model and optimize the glycerolysis efficiency under three reaction variables namely; reaction time, temperature and glycerol to oil mass ratio. The optimum conditions for the highest glycerolysis efficiency of 98.67% were found to ...
ABSTRACTA preliminary study was made on the effect of castor oil on the properties of polyether based polyurethane foam such as rising time, density, hardness tensile strength, compression, elongation and heat aging. The castor oil was introduced into the polyurethane foam by partially substituting it for silicone oil through seven experimental set up, based on the laboratory mix formulation on 5OOg polyether based polyol with 0%, 20%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 80% and IOO% castor oi...
Environmental pollution is a form of land degradation which has contributed immensely to the reduction of available arable lands and could lead to the total annihilation of the ecosystem if not effectively mitigated. Bioremediation technology offers a biological means which provide an eco-friendly and cost-effective approach for soil remediation in contrast to physicochemical methods. This study aims to evaluate the application of wastewaters and air-injection ...
The prevalence and high rate of soil contamination have contributed immensely to the reduction of arable lands which might lead to the total annihilation of the ecosystem if not mitigated. Bioremediation employs microorganisms that offer a sustainable approach for the remediation of contaminated soils. This study focus on the evaluation of industrial (brewery) and municipal effluents for the treatment of crude oil-contaminated soil. A microcosm containing 1kg of crude oil-contaminated soil ...

Nickel doped zinc oxide (Ni/ZnO) nanostructures have the potential to improve the performance of electrochemical capacitors. This study investigates the preparation of Ni/ZnO nanomaterials by facile co-precipitation (CPM) and hydrothermal (HTM) methods. The effect of the synthesis methods on the optical, structural, chemical and morphological properties on ZnO products is investigated using ultra violet (UV)-visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron micro...
ABSTRACTThis study was conducted to remove mango shell waste which is one of the seasonal environmental nuisance items and recycle it as a precursor for the production of activated carbon. Discarded mango shells were sourced from local vicinity, and they were washed thoroughly to remove dirt, sundried and reduced to smaller sizes. Two-Level Factorial Design under Factorial Methodology of Design Expect (10.0.1) software was employed to optimize interaction of impregnation ratio (0.033 - 0.167 ...
