(Hindawi, 2022-07-08)
Illicit drug abuse and addiction are universal issues requiring international cooperation and interdisciplinary and multisectoral
solutions. ese addictive substances are utilized for recreational purposes worldwide, ...
Water defluoridation using Al/Fe/Ti ternary metal oxide-loaded activated carbon by capacitive deionization
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2023-01-26)
Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an environmentally friendly water treatment technology with low energy consumption. For a long time, activated carbon has been a preferred electrode material for CDI owing to its availability, ...
A Review on Computational Fluid Dynamics Applications in the Design and Optimization of Crossflow Hydro Turbines
(Hindawi, 2021-10-15)
In recent years, advances in using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software have greatly increased due to its great potential to
save time in the design process compared to experimental testing for data acquisition. ...
Capacitive Deionization for the Removal of Paraquat Herbicide from Aqueous Solution
(Hindawi, 2021-10-08)
In comparison to other conventional methods like adsorption and reverse osmosis (RO), capacitive deionization (CDI) has only been investigated extensively for the removal of inorganic pollutants from water, demonstrating ...
Assessment of Groundwater Quality under Changing Climate in Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Tanzania
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2022-07)
Understanding the hydrochemical composition of water resources in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA, Dodoma, Tanzania) related to climate variability is essential for sustainable development. Thus, the current study ...
Comprehensive assessment of heat pump dryers for drying agricultural products
(Wiley Online Library, 2022-11-22)
Fruits and vegetables are agricultural products that require preservation to enhance and protect shelf life, encapsulate natural flavour, and retain nutritional content. Globally, agricultural products are preserved by a ...
Status of Biomass Derived Carbon Materials for Supercapacitor Application
(Hindawi, 2017-01-31)
Environmental concerns and energy security uncertainties associated with fossil fuels have driven the world to shift to renewable energy sources. However, most renewable energy sources with exception of hydropower are ...
Fast Rate Production of Biodiesel from Neem Seed Oil Using a Catalyst Made from Banana Peel Ash Loaded with Metal Oxide (Li-CaO/Fe2 (SO4)3)
(Hindawi, 2020-08-27)
Biodiesel is a possible remedy to the present toxic, finite sources and ever-diminishing crude fuels. Nonedible and locally available (Azadirachta indica) neem seed oil (NSO) as a second-generation feedstock was transformed ...
Rheological and Physicochemical Analysis of Nonedible Oils Used for Biodiesel Production
(ACS Omega, 2022-10-13)
Rheological and physicochemical characteristics of edible oils used for biodiesel production are well established; nonetheless, the rheological and physicochemical characteristics of nonedible oils are yet to be established. ...
Clustering and Fuzzy Logic-Based Demand-Side Management for Solar Microgrid Operation: Case Study of Ngurudoto Microgrid, Arusha, Tanzania
(Hindawi, 2021-02-15)
Permanent electricity availability should not be taken for granted since grid sustainability and reliability are at stake when there is no balance between supply and demand. This paper employs a load balancing demand-side ...
