A review on strategies to optimize metabolic stages of anaerobic digestion of municipal solid wastes towards enhanced resources recovery
(BioMed Central Ltd, 2019-12-17)
Recently, there are increased efforts by municipals and researchers to investigate the potential of utilizing municipal solid wastes (MSW) for resources recovery. In many parts of developing countries, MSW is mostly collected ...
Life cycle analysis of potential municipal solid wastes management scenarios in Tanzania: the case of Arusha City
(Springer Nature, 2021-01-07)
The municipal solid wastes (MSW) management technologies in most cities of developing countries pose a continuous risk of contaminating the environment and affecting human health adversely; often because MSW technologies ...
Development of photocatalytic semiconductors and nanocomposites with excellent optoelectronic and electrochemical properties for dye effluent remediation -A review
(Elsevier, 2024-12)
Myriads of photocatalytic semiconductors and their corresponding nanocomposites have been investigated for the remediation of toxic dye molecules in textile effluent however, notable challenges are reported of their ...
Process modeling and optimization of photocatalytic treatment of dye-polluted effluent using novel polyaniline/graphene oxide-Fe3O4-Ag nanocomposites
(Elsevier, 2024-12-01)
This study developed a novel photocatalytic nanocomposite via in situ polymerization with 3 % blend of graphene oxide (GO), magnetite (Fe3O4) and silver nanoparticle (Ag-Nps) from AgNO3. Also, the process applied a new ...

Synthesis and FTIR Characterization of Mg-Hydroxylapatite Derived from Dolostone with High Dolomite Mineral Content
(University of Dar es Salaam, 2020-08-24)
We present the synthesis of magnesium-substituted hydroxylapatite starting from locally available
dolostone. The apatite was prepared by a reaction between heat pre-treated dolostone powder with
phosphoric acid, maintained ...
Fenton-mediated solar-driven photocatalysis of industrial dye effluent with polyaniline impregnated with activated TiO2-Nps
(Elsevier, 2024)
Various integrated technologies have been investigated for the remediation of heavily polluted industrial dye
effluent. Also, more than 70 % of these dyes are known to be solely azo dyes used in the textile industry ...
Development of ternary PANI/GO-Fe3O4@AgNps nanocomposites for photocatalytic remediation of toxic dye effluent under energy-efficient system
(Elsevier, 2025-03)
The environmental toxicity of effluents contaminated with synthetic industrial dyes and their resistance to conventional treatments drive the need for developing innovative treatment technologies such as visible photoactive ...
Performance of water filters towards the removal of selected pollutants in Arusha, Tanzania.
(University of Dar es Salaam, 2016)
This paper presents the findings of a study carried out to investigate the efficiency of selected
common water filters in the removal of Escherichia coli, organic matter and fluoride. Additionally,
the Total Suspended ...
Two-stage banana leaves wastes utilization towards mushroom growth and biogas production
(Springer Nature Switzerland AG., 2020-11-20)
Banana leaves wastes (BL) were subjected to fungal treatment using Pleurotus ostreatus to produce edible mushrooms and biogas in the anaerobic digestion process. Effects of fungal treatment on mushrooms production, lignin ...
