ABSTRACT This project was carried out to ascertain whether the local palm oil met the required standard. The analytical test carried out include the free fatty acid test the acid value, iodine value moisture, content, saponfication value, peroxide value, specific gravity, colour and viscosity. The specific gravity of the oil sample was determined by comparing its weight when filled with the sample and that of water, while its moisture content was analyzed by oven drying the sample for a pa...

ABSTRACT In the society at large Technology is fast replacing the crude method of carrying out work and has been making room for employment. Besides, it has also caught the attention of the youths who will prefer to work in a company with technological operations than one with man-power operations. This project can be used to convey materials ranging from those in powdery forms grit forms, and stones in the size of crushed granites. If applied to the foundry technology practical (sand mould) ...
INTRODUCTION REFRIGERATION Refrigeration is a branch of science that deals with the process of removing heat from a substance or space in order to make it cooler. Refrigerator is defined as a device that is used in cooling the internal temperature below the room temperature (that is between 250C to 300C). Generally, however, for a space or substance to be cooler, it must loss that heat to another. Also, for a space or substance to get hotter, it must absorb heat from another, which must b...
ABSTRACT Knowledge could only be obtained successively by the use of books for research. This can be achieved only by preserving books already purchased. As a result we fabricate a metallic shelf made up of metallic sheet. Precisely mild steel sheets. The mild steel used for the fabrication of the shelf is 1.5mm (16gauge) mild steel. The shelf is made up of 3 partition. In fabricating the metallic shelf several process where involved. We plundered on the material to be used that can hold ...
ABSTRACT This Nylon sealing and cutting machine has an added advantage of making 800 sealed bags per hour. The constructional machines were sourced locally. The machine can cut and seal Nylon at a affordable cost. The constructional size of 31 cm x 7.5cm x 12.4 which comprises the following component. The sealing and cutting filament, the transformer with 1000 turns of wire for the secondary and about 1200 turns for the primary. Others includes the micro switch, tephlon tape and alumi...
INTRODUCTION The production of bench shearing machines to reduce, alleviate and probably eliminate suffering, time, money, wastage of material and more especially the need for technological break through and self reliance has been a major concern of the federal government. Metal shearing and shaping has been a tiring problem in the society from time immemorial especially toward our loco-parcatesis. To help eradicate these problem this project write up has delved into simplicities and cons...
INTRODUCTION This project of fabrication of single face pressurized kerosene cooker is a copied design. It is a manually operated type of stove, which has the capacity of supplying heat energy at high and low temperature. The type of stove so designed here do the industrial type with one burner. Since the introduction of this pressurized kerosene cooker many effort has been made in order to enhance the ability to function well. Thus we undertook this project design and fabrication of a si...
ABSTRACT This write up is a detail of the process and information of plan for the physical realization of the construction of the 1M3 mobile deep freezer. It is divided into chapters, which discussed extensively the practical refrigeration cycle with full attention given to design factors working principle and choice of material. The method used in fabrication, assembly and driving the safety requirement was not left out. TABLE OF CONTENT Title Page i Release Page ii Signature Pageiii Ap...
ABSTRACT An equipment design project was carried out to design an inverter (Bioreator) or the production of 100,00 metric tones per year of ethanol from sugar cane. An inverter is a part of process equipment used in ethanol production from sugar cane. While the rest process equipment include crusher, filter, centrifuge, fermented, distribution column and dehydrator. Having based on design on a steady –stated operation, the required feed rate and enthalpy in the inverter, calculated from ...
ABSTRACT Microcontroller based remote control system is a project design of a system that uses infra red transmission and reception principle to switch on or off other appliances. It is a wireless mode of switching appliances to a desired state. When a number is pressed in the transmitter section, the receiver section decodes the signal and utilizes it in controlling the desired appliances. Several functional blocks of circuit are put together to ensure that the design works as the designer ...
ABSTRACT Flooding has been described as one of the most important environmental factors determining the distribution of salt maize plants. We studied the impact of five water levels on the germination and establishment of the invasive cord grass spartina denifora. Plant house experiment was carried out to determine the effects of time and depth of flooding o the survival and growth of rice. Data showed that time and depth of flood had significant effects on the survival and growth of rice. �...
ABSTRACT This project has been design and fabricated with special economical needs for small scale baking industries, wholesalers and distributors who impact this type of baking even from outside the country to su0pply the customers. And in view of the scarcity and high cost of gas and electricity in the country and also smoke release when using firewood for drying and preserving fresh fish by some matters at home, restaurant fast food shop etc, the pressurized kerosene oven have been fabric...
ABSTRACT As a result of modern development in Science and Technology, most of the large scale industrial used machine were now modernized to simple small and efficient machines. Some of these machines were either operated manually or the aid of electricity. For this reason, big metal sharpening machine was here reduced to simple term, which can be operated manually such as file and grinding machine for production firms and homes. This machine performs the same functions as the large i...
ABSTRACT In a developing economy like Nigeria financial resources are scarce commodity. Hence, cheaper means of accomplishing tasks even within the presence of scarce resources are always explored. This paper presents the design and implementation of a software intercom on local area network (LAN). The design provides a solution that eliminates the use of expensive hard-wired intercoms and Private Automatic Branch Exchange (PABX) by making use of only LAN and full multimedia computer allowing...
