Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping, Characterization and Dispersion of Metallic Pollutants within a Catchment of Illegal Gold Mining Activities in GhanaWiafe Samuel, Richard Buamah, Helen Essandoh, Lawrence DarkwahThe illegal gold mining activities prevalent in most part of Ghana have caused substantial havoc to the environment especially water bodies which serve as sources of water for domestic, industrial and agricultural purposes. The Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) recently shut down their water treatment plant due to the extreme pollution and high cost of treatment. This study focusses on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2018 · 8,181 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoupling Analysis of Thermodynamic Equilibrium of Mass Transfer and Microbial Community Succession in Multiphase System of Dark Tea Solid-State FermentationZhanjun Liu, Jiawei Sun, Taotao Li et al.During the solid-state fermentation of dark tea, the limited material migration, the dynamic evolution of the thermodynamic equilibrium state, and the highly dynamic succession of the microbial community make it difficult to analyze the quality formation mechanism systematically. Traditional research has focused on microbial diversity or sensory quality analysis, lacking a systematic discussion on the regulatory effects of material migration … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 10 Aug 2026 · 1,017 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnveiling the Potential of Dombeya buettneri K.Schum As a Drug Agent: Molecular Docking of Compounds With Enzymes Linked to Diabetes and Neurodegenerative DiseaseEsther Emem Nwanna, Samuel Chima Ugbaja et al.This study investigated the mechanisms of Dombeya buettneri (snowball leafy) extracts on diabetes, hypertension, and neurodegenerative diseases. It compared extracts obtained using steep water (a by-product of corn wet milling) and aqueous water. The extracts were analyzed for total phenol, total flavonoid content, antioxidant activities such as FRAP, ABTS, NO, DPPH, iron-induced lipid peroxidation assay, degradation of deoxyribose (Fenton’s reaction), … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2026 · 2,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiological Risks Assessment of Ogun State Drinking WaterJustina Ada Achuka, Usikalu Mojisola Rachael, Oyeyemi Kehinde DavidThe presence of radionuclides in water constitute health risk to man. The consumption of such water increases the likelihood of incurring cancer. Analysis will enhance the detection of significant radionuclides causing harm to the populace and stimulate remediation. This inferred the radioactivity measurements of twenty (20) well water samples from three industrial cities of Ogun State using Hyper Pure Germanium … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 18 May 2017 · 7,790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Chemical Coagulants for Oscillatoria sp. Removal from Raw Water on Chemical Coagulation ProcessSaowapak Thammasane, Thaniya KaosolGrowing Oscillatoria sp. in freshwater causes several poisoning episodes of domestic livestock animal and human. The chemical coagulation of raw water using chemical coagulants is very simple and requiring less investment cost on equipment. These experiments used alum and PACl (Polyaluminium chloride) with alum as chemical coagulants for Oscillatoria sp. removal. The Oscillatoria sp. was prepared from Molecular and Cell … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 14 Dec 2018 · 8,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPb Removal from Contaminated Water Using EDTA with Colocasiaesculenta (L.) Schott at Klity Creek, Kanchanaburi, ThailandPantawat Sampanpanish, Yotsavanun HongpiriyakulThis study investigated lead (Pb) removal using a plant called‘Elephant Ear’ (Colocasiaesculenta (L.) Schott) from contaminated waterat Klity Creek, located in Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand. Plants weregrown in contaminated water with lead carbonate (Pb(CO3)2) in a nursery. The experiment was divided into 4 sets; (1) With Pb but without EDTA, (2) With Pb and EDTA 0.01 millimole (mM) per liter (mM … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 4 May 2018 · 8,167 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecognizing Dissolved Organic Matter with an Improved Fluorescence Regional Integral MethodZhang Jianguo, Wang Xinyi, Liu Xiaoman et al.The aim of this paper was to study transformations of Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) in marl rock groundwater. To achieve this, we carried out a series of soil column experiments, using a DOM solution as the water sample and marl rock as the testing rock sample. Three-Dimensional Excitation-Emission Matrix Spectra (3DEEMS) were generated for DOM solutions and the Analytic Hierarchy … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2019 · 7,292 accessesView PDFCite

Faruque Hossain, ASM Maksud Kamal, Abdul Halim Farhad Sikder, Zakia ParveenAn investigation was conducted to assess the air quality impact and possible health risk of solid waste disposal on surrounding environment of Matuail landfill site in Dhaka city. Three different locations were selected for soil and plant samples. Leachate samples were collected from active dumping area and fish samples from treated leachate pond. Seven different locations were selected for air … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2019 · 8,353 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOsmotic Tension, Plasticization and Viscoelastic response of amorphous Poly-Ether-Ether-Ketone (PEEK) equilibrated in humid environmentsAversa Raffaella, Apicella AntonioDynamic-Mechanical Analysis (DMA), Differential scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and water moisture sorption-desorption kinetics and equilibria have been parallely investigated to monitoring the environmental and thermal sensitivity of amorphous thermoplastic Poly-Ether-Ether-Ketone (PEEK). Morphological modification occurring in PEEK during the calorimetric and thermo-mechanical characterizations and the hygrothermal stability are presented. An interpretation based on the free energy of mixing of a polymer chains … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 14 Jul 2016 · 8,466 accessesView PDFCite
