1. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION AND IT'S ASSOCIATED HEALTH RISK AMONG RESIDENTS OF NKPOR, IDEMILI NORTH, LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA OF ANAMBRA STATE
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
It has been observed in recent times that the role the environment play to a nation‟s development process can not be relegated to the background. Apart from being the physical surrounding for natural habitats, the environment pro...
2. IRRADIATION AS A MEANS OF PRESERVATION IN THE FOOD INDUSTRY
Abstract
Food irradiation is a food preservation method which involves the process of exposing foodstuffs to a source of energy capable of stripping electrons from individual atoms in the targeted material (ionizing radiation). This method of food prese...
3. EVALUATION OF GAMMA RADIATION-INDUCED MUTANT LINES OF SESAME (SESAMUM INDICUM L.) FOR GENETIC IMPROVEMENT OF SOME DESIRABLE TRAITS
ABSTRACT
The creation, evaluation and selection of mutants with desirable traits have served as source of genetic variability for breeding programmes of many crops. Thus, eleven mutant lines of sesame developed through induced gamma irradiation were evaluated in the M4 generation alongs...
4. SOLAR PHOTOCATALYTIC DEGRADATION OF ORGANIC POLLUTANTS IN LOCAL DYEING WASTEWATER USING NEEMMODIFIED GRAPHITIC CARBON NITRIDE (g-C3N4)
ABSTRACT
The discharge of dyeing wastewater containing high concentration of contaminants from the local dyeing industry has caused a serious environmental concern. The present study reports the synthesis of graphitic carbon nitride and itsutilization in degradation of dyeing effluent p...
5. STUDY OF PHOTOCATALYTIC AND ADSORTIVE BEHAVIOUR OF PURE ZIRCONIUM OXIDE AND CARBON-SULPHUR CO-DOPED ZIRCONIUM OXIDE NANOCOMPOSITES FOR PURIFICATION OF DYE WASTEWATER
ABSTRACT
In this work, ZrO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by green method using Plumeria acuminata leaf extract via the variation of pH. Subsequently, carbon and sulphur were incorporated onto the lattice layer of the prepared ZrO2 nanoparticles by wet impregnation method. The prepared...
