Comparative Study on Production and Characterization of Bioethanol from Agricultural Waste Materials
Abstract: Production and characterization of bioethanol from lignocellulosic substrates that include sugarcane bagasse, corn cob and cassava peels were investigated in this research study. The raw materials (sugarcane bagasse, corn cob and cassava peels) were sorted, washed, cleansed to remove dirts and dried to remove moisture contents, and crushed into ground form to increase substrate’s surface area of contacts and sieved through a mesh size of 2 mm. The bioethanol distillates …

Effects of Compatibilizer and Paper Sludge Content on the Performances of Thermoplastic Polymer Composites
Abstract: One of the environmental issues affecting third-world countries is the economic use of lignocellulose waste, which is now being researched. Paper sludge (PS) composites will allow for the effective use of a waste material that is currently burned or buried, as well as the ability to lower the cost of the composite that is created. In this study, the mechanical and thermalcharacteristics of environmentally friendly composites constructed from PS-reinforced recycled …

Nanofluids for the Synthesis of Solar Thermal Energy
Abstract: The use of Al2O3-Water nano-fluids in a solar flat plate collector to increase solar energy collection and conversion is examined in this research (SFPC). Both experimental and theoretical analysis is done to determine how effective a solar flat plate collectors is while using water as the fluid medium. Al2O3- Water nanofluid was chosen as the fluid medium to increase the SFPC's capacity for solar energy collecting and conversion. A few …

The Role of Energy Storage in Wind Energy Technology
Abstract: Wind energy is a promising source of renewable energy that has gained increasing attention in recent years. However, wind power generation faces the challenge of intermittent, which can lead to fluctuations in power supply and demand. The solution to this challenge lies in energy storage technologies, which can store excess wind energy during periods of high wind and release it when needed. Energy storage systems (ESS) have an important role …

INVESTIGATION ON PORTABILITY OF OTUOKE UNDERGROUND WATER.
Abstract: The study was designed to investigate the portability on groundwater in Otuoke, Bayelsa State. A total of four groundwater samples were acquired and analyzed for their physico-chemical and heavy metal parameters. Heavy metals were all analyzed with the Atomic Absorption Spectrometer and spectrophotometer. The result revealed that for the heavy metals, iron was most predominant, ranging from 0.70 to 0.08 mg/L. Arsenic was below the machine detectable limit and Assessment …
