1. DEVELOPMENTAND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIOCOMPOSITES FROM POLYLACTIC ACID AND GROUNDNUT SHELL ASH NANOPARTICLES
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Nanocomposite is a class of composites in which the dimensions of the reinforcing particles are in the order of 1-100 nanometers. Because of this nanometer size characteristic, nanocomposites possess superior properties to the conventional composite...
2. THE REMOVAL OF PHOSPHORIC COMPOUNDS FROM SURFACE WATER NEAR A FARMLAND USING MAIZE TASSEL IMMOBILIZED IN POLYVINYL ALCOHOL
ABSTRACT
In this study, proximate analysis and characterization techniques were carried out on maize tassel fibres in order to check its feasibility as a bio-sorbent for bio-sorption process before the immobilization with Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA). The moisture content, ash content, appar...
