The rise in the tide of information technology has led to an increase in the large amount of personal information that could be collected from an individual, thus breaching personal privacy. Protecting the individual personal information is paramount as it bothers on the dignity of the consumer and his right to solitude. While the Constitution of Nigeria provides for the protection of dignity of the Nigerian in section 37 and section 34 for protection of privacy sectoral laws are also in...
ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to characterize some Portland cements (Bua, Dangote and Sokoto cement) sold in Sokoto city using standard methods; due to the persistent collapse of buildings. The results showed that Sokoto cement recorded the least CaO content (58.99%) while Dangote cement had the highest CaO content being 61.56%. All the samples have Al2O3, SiO2 and Fe2O3 contents within the acceptable limits with the exception of De with SiO2 content being below the required standard....
ABSTRACT This project work aimed at demonstrating the benefits of organic wastes in the production of Biogas using a bio-digester through the use of different substrates and methods in order to optimize the production of Methane Gas by anaerobic digestion. Five samples (substrates) were used in this research with their different seeding substances. Organic wastes, particularly plants wastes and animal dung constitute a nuisance to our environment and also a threat to public health, there is...
ABSTRACT Over 40 complexes of the younger granites of Nigeria are found on the Jos plateau. The Ganawuri complex is one of the high level granitoid bodies in the Younger Granite Province. During the period of this research, a massive kaolin deposit at Kurra was studied. The sequence of the studied area comprises of five layers: a lateritic layer, an older basalt layer, reddish kaolin, pure white kaolin and a migmatite layer. It has been propo...
ABSTRACT This project is on effect of web application technology in modern life :a case study of developing professional webpage for blue cross hotels and holiday resorts. The concept of this study is to assist hoteliers, travelers, fun seekers and the society at large to tackle the difficulties in their business and private works in life. However, the effect of web application technology has gone along way in this modern age. The wide coverage of web application stechnology has fostered t...
Abstract Attendance management is the act of managing attendance or presence in a work setting, which maximises and motivates staff attendance thereby minimising loss. Not only does it affect productivity, it can cost the organisation profits or even additional contracts. For the industrial sector attendance management system can develop alacrity among the workers to work regularly and also help them to motivate their co- worker to attend work regularly. Fingerprints are considered to be...

Citrullus lanatus (water melon) is a commonly consumed fruit worldwide. The seeds are often thrown away without considering its potential nutritional and medicinal benefits. In this study, a methanol extract of citrullus lanatus seeds was analyzed for the presence of bioactive secondary metabolites and to determine its ability to scavenge 2, 2‐ diphenyl ‐1‐ picrylhydrazyl (DPPH.) radical, superoxide anion radical (O2.‐), and nitric oxide radical (NO.). Quantitative phytochemical a...
bstract - The p et rographic and geochemical study of sandstones of Eze - Aku Formation (Turonian) outcropping in Ugep area souther n Benue Trough Nigeria was carried out to ascertain the sandstone provenance and tectonic setting. Field studies show that the sandones occur in linear, parallel northeast - southwest trending ridges alternating with shale sequence. The sandstone facies show coarsening upward sequence, slightly bioturbated, cross - stratified, rippled bedded which infer fores...
ABSTRACT In a bid to determine the groundwater potential of some parts Orsu and environs, which lies within latitude N5º53.858΄ to N5º47.572΄ and longitude E7º0.847΄ to E6º56.988΄, a total of ten (10) vertical electrical soundings were carried out. The study area belongs to the Anambra basin which is one of Nigeria’s most important hydrological basins. It is overlain by the Miocene to recent Benin formation and Eocene Ameki formation.Equipment such as ABEM terrameter SA...
ABSTRACTOil and Gas sector includes the exploration, gathering, production, processing, storage, and transportation of petroleum liquids and natural gas. With the oil and gas sector fueling every aspect of our daily life, the protection of its critical infrastructure is crucial. It is known that digitally connected oil and gas operations help to improve production (General Electric, 2018). So, in order to sustain uninterrupted energy production and for quick recovery from major cyber incident...
CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 NICKEL 1.1.1 Occurrence Nickel (Ni) is a metallic element,with atomic number 28; atomic weight 58.69. Is a metal, which belongs to group VIIIB of the periodic table. The most important oxidation state of nickel is +2, although the +3 and +4 oxidation states are also known (Tundermann et al., 2005). Nickel resembles iron, cobalt, and copper in its chemical properties. However, unlike cobalt and iron, it is normally only stable in aqueou...
ABSTRACT The essential oil of Cymbopogon citratus was extracted using a green method (i.e. essential oil still), encapsulated into cassava starch matrix using sodium alginate as a binder. The encapsulated sodium alginate starch beads were characterized using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometer (FTIR), release kinetics of the oil was monitored by UV-Visible Spectrophotometry from two (2) aqueous media, buffer of pH 4 and pH 9. The result for ...
ABSTRACT Schistosomiasis is a water-borne parasitic disease caused by schistosomes and transmitted by fully aquatic or amphibious freshwater snails in whose bodies the human-infective larvae, cercariae, develop. Adult schistosome worms colonise human blood vessels for years, successfully evading the immune system while excreting hundreds to thousands of eggs daily, which must either leave the body in excreta and/or urine or become trapped in nearby tissues. Trapped eggs induce a dist...
