Wastewater is an environmental problem. The cost of treating wastewater is expensive. Identification of cheap and locally available materials will reduce the burden of wastewater treatment. Sugarcane bagasse is an agricultural wastes and adsorbent from it has been used in this research project. The adsorbent produced and the petrochemical wastewater samples were first characterized. The…

This study focuses on the economic viability of using associated gas (A-gas) as a fuel in gas turbines for power generation applications. GASTURB simulation software was employed in modelling the natural gas and associated gas. Also, it was used for simulating the performance of the gas turbine using the two fuels. When natural gas and…

This research adopts the use of first order reliability method (FORM) in managing a waste management system. Questionnaires were distributed to waste management contractors, individuals, residents, schools, corporate bodies, and institutions, companies and industries. Within the questionnaires retrieved, waste generation data of selected zones were added. Vehicles with different capacities  in kilogram were selected and…

Solid waste has turned out to be a global challenge facing Port Harcourt cosmopolis. A justifiable solid waste handling structure which secures environmental safety and human health becomes a critical target for Port Harcourt cosmopolis. Waste management is about the assembling, conveying and disposal of waste from the factors that generates the waste. Over 60%…

A diagnostic report or assessment must be carried out to discover the real status of the power system under inquiry before designing, expanding, and analyzing it. This diagnostic report is called power or load flow analysis, and it is the bedrock for all power system analysis. In this research, an extensive and elaborate review is…

This study evaluates the capability of the rotary intersection at Rivers State University in order to address the traffic issues by studying the traffic at the intersection. At the intersection, traffic volume was counted manually and analyzed. The results were converted to equivalent Passenger Car Unit per hour (PCU/hr). According to the analysis, the intersection…

This paper discusses a simulation study that explores the impact of wave height and wave period on the power output of a point absorber wave energy converter (WEC). The investigation was conducted using MATLAB’s open-source code WecSim. The study examines the device’s efficiency and power output under various wave conditions and provides insights into their…

Viscosity of crude oil in reservoir hinders the oil flow rate during production, and this factor has been a major problem in crude oil production sectors. In this work, basic mathematical models are developed and simulated using MATLAB to access they models effectiveness towards the evaluation of temperature effects on heavy oil horizontal wellbore, undergoing…

The biocorrosion of mild steel in a culture of aerobic bacteria (Pseudomonas sp.) has been investigated under laboratory conditions. Freshwater samples were collected and subjected to physicochemical and bacteriological analysis in which Pseudomonas sp were cultured using the serial dilution method and used for the study. Selected physicochemical and bacteriological properties including temperature, pH, total…
