A study on Pb removal kinetics using modified agricultural wastes from Tanzania
(Springer Nature Switzerland AG., 2020-10-29)
Lignocellulosic materials, abundant and renewable materials, are gaining popularity as metal scavenging agents because of their high sorption capacities, relatively low cost and environmental-friendliness. However, there ...
Removal of Selected Heavy Metal Ions from Industrial Wastewater Using Rice and Corn Husk Biochar
(Springer Nature Switzerland AG., 2020-05-12)
This study investigated the removal of heavy metal ions from industrial wastewater by using rice and corn husk biochar. The choice of the materials was influenced by their large surface area, abundance of functional groups ...
Analysis of spatio-temporal climate variability of a shallow lake catchment in Tanzania
(IWA Publishing, 2020-04-06)
This study analyzed the trends and spatio-temporal variability in rainfall and temperature, and the length of the rainy season (LRS) in the Lake Manyara catchment, Tanzania, covering a period between 1988 and 2018 using ...
Assessing Land Use/Cover dynamics of the Ngorongoro world heritage site in Tanzania using a hybrid CA–Markov model
(Authorea, 2020-10)
In this study, land-use/cover pattern of the UNESCO world heritage site, Ngorongoro Conservation Area; is analyzed
using the CA–Markov model with the help of RS and GIS. Hybrid classification techniques ware used to monitor ...
Influence of land use change on nitrate sources and pollutant enrichment in surface and groundwater of a growing urban area in Tanzania
(Springer Nature Switzerland AG., 2021-01-31)
In the present study, 3-year (1997, 2008 and 2017) satellite images as well as different hydro-chemical parameters, nitrogen and oxygen isotopic composition of nitrate were used to examine the impacts of land use and land ...
Regeneration and carboxymethylation of cellulose and its derivatives: application assessment for brewery wastewater treatment
(Springer Nature Switzerland AG., 2021-02-13)
Coagulation–flocculation technique is usually employed in wastewater treatment by applying conventional inorganic materials such as alum and ferric chloride. Due cost to environmental challenges associated with the use of ...
