Removal Anionic Dye from Aqueous Solutions usingBiopolymere
Published In: GJSFR Part: H: Environment & Environmental geology Volume: 16 Issue: 3
Dyes have long been used in dyening, paper and pulp, texstile, plastics, leather paint, cosmetics and food industries. This poses certain hazards and environmental problems. the objective of this study is to investigate the adsorption behaviour of metyl orange from aqueous solution onto chitosan. The effect of initial dye concentration, contact time, initial pH, and adsorbent dosage were...

Physico-Chemical and Microbial Analysis of the Effects of Abattoirs Operation in Estako-West and Central, Edo-State, Nigeria
Published In: GJSFR Part: H: Environment & Environmental geology Volume: 16 Issue: 3
Abattoir wastewater has a complex composition and very harmful to the environment. There is always need for reduction in the impact of natural and most especially anthropogenic pollution to enhance water quality, food safety and sustainable development. Physico-chemical and microbial properties analysed using standard laboratory procedures were temperature, pH, conductivity, turbidity, t...

Implications of Wet-Rice Farming on Human Health and Physical Environment in Kenya: a Comparative Study in Mwea Irrigation Settlement Scheme, Kenya
Published In: GJSFR Part: H: Environment & Environmental geology Volume: 16 Issue: 3
This paper examines the implication of wet-rice farming or irrigated agriculture on the physical environment and human health. Environmental problems seem to have increased in the recent past posing a major threat to irrigation development. Several environmental problems created by irrigation development in Mwea Irrigation Settlement Scheme (MIS) could be attributed to improper understan...

Removal of Toxic Metals Contaminated Soil using Different Amendments and Sunflower Species (Helianthus Annuus)
Published In: GJSFR Part: H: Environment & Environmental geology Volume: 16 Issue: 2
Accumulation of heavy metals in crops grown in metal-polluted soil may easily cause damage effect on human health through food chain. Fu et al (2008), The main factor for heavy metals accumulation was litho logical factor in three acid agricultural areas. It is reported that soil (aquaregia) soluble fraction of Co, Ni , Al and Fe. These elements were associated with indigenous clay miner...

Analysis and Interpretation of Airborne Magneticdata of G.Abu Had-G.Umm Qaraf Area, South Eastern Desert, Egypt
Published In: GJSFR Part: H: Environment & Environmental geology Volume: 16 Issue: 3
The aeromagnetic survey is important to delineate the relationship that is usually present in survey areas, between magnetic anomalies and tectonic pattern. This is primarily based on the fact that the tectonic history of the rocks is recorded in the magnitude and pattern of magnetic anomalies. Thus, any extensive magnetic survey will contain anomalies whose pattern is not random (Afflec...

Assessing the Phytoremediation Potential of the Grass; Chrysopogon Aciculatus for the Heavy Metals: Cr, Co, Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn, Ni and Mn
Published In: GJSFR Part: H: Environment & Environmental geology Volume: 16 Issue: 2
Bioaccumulation ability of the grass Chrysopogon aciculatus for the heavy metals cobalt (Co), manganese(Mn), copper(Cu), lead(Pb), chromium(Cr), cadmium(Cd), nickel(Ni), and zinc( Zn) was studied. Samples of soil and the grass (fresh) were collected from No. 1 Alu avenue off Ahmad Bello way, Nasarawa L. G. A. of Kano State, Nigeria. Collection was made in August to September, 2015. Sampl...

The Early Earth
Published In: GJSFR Part: H: Environment & Environmental geology Volume: 16 Issue: 3
The several observations and scientific evidence suggests that the Earth at present has a layered structure. But the question arises how the layered structure of Earth has taken the present shape from the early Earth which was a product of condensation from the solar nebular. The Solar System is presumed to have begun after one or more local supernova explosions about 4.6 Ga ago. The pla...

Towards the Reduction of Cooling Loads in Ghanaian Glazed Office Buildings: Orientation as a Recommendation by the Ghana Green Building Council (GHGBC)
Published In: GJSFR Part: H: Environment & Environmental geology Volume: 16 Issue: 2
Designing to make use of the climatic conditions of the site has always been a challenge; especially when buildings are to be naturally ventilated. The current study examines how effective orientation is as a parameter for the reduction of cooling loads in multi-storey office buildings. The approach is experimental in nature where a case-study building was selected and a parametric simul...
