Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectrical Properties of Novel Lead Zirconate/Synthetic Rubber Composite MaterialsChareumwut Pansa-Ard, Yanee Pornchaisiriarun, Nuchnapa TangboriboonProblem statement: Perovskite lead zirconate exhibits in an orthorhombic formation at a temperature below the Curie temperature, TC. Approach: The orthorhombic is non-centrosymmetric which is capable of spontaneous polarization (electronic, ionic and orientation), depending on their composition and volume fraction. Results: The results from FTIR spectroscopy, XRD patterns, and SEM indicate that the lead zirconate particles are dispersed in Acrylic … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 20 Feb 2012 · 7,589 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Abattoir and Saw-Mill Effluents on Water Quality of Upper Ogun River (Abeokuta)A. O. Adeogun, A. V. Chukwuka, O. R. IborProblem statement: The unregulated discharge of contaminants from point sources into inland freshwater aquatic systems and the resultant deterioration of water quality are largely undocumented in developing countries like Nigeria especially with respect to the role of seasonal factors on the recovery capacity of aquatic systems. Approach: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of abattoir and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 6 Jan 2012 · 8,634 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPositron Annihilation Study on Nickel and Iron Nano-Particles in Natural Rubber CompositesEmad Hassan AlyProblem statement: The effect of Ni and Fe nano-particles as a filler on the free volume properties Of Natural Rubber (NR) was studied using Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy (PALS). Approach: The PAL measurements revealed that the free volume properties are strongly affected by the amount and type of filler. Results: Particularly speaking, the free volume fraction dramatically decreased by increasing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvective Heat Transport in an Unconfined Aquifer Induced by the Field Injection of an Open-Loop Groundwater Heat PumpStefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaProblem statement: The increasing diffusion of low-enthalpy geothermal open-loop Groundwater Heat Pumps (GWHP) providing buildings air conditioning requires a careful assessment of the overall effects on groundwater system, especially in the urban areas. The impact on the groundwater temperature in the surrounding area of the re-injection well is directly linked to the aquifer properties. Physical processes affecting heat transport within … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,970 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Pollution Hazards of Shallow Well Water in Abeokuta and Environs, Southwest, NigeriaE. O. Orebiyi, J. A. Awomeso, O. A. Idowu et al.Problem statement: Pollution of well water, either from point or non-point sources, has become a thing of health concern both in urban and rural areas. Approach: This study aim at assessing the pollution hazards of groundwater resource by sampling some shallow wells from urban and peri-urban area of Abeokuta. Collected samples were analyzed for water quality parameters using standard procedures. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Buoyancy Force in Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation of a Two-Dimensional Continuous Ohmic Heating ProcessElzubier A. Salih, Thomas S.Y. Choong, S. Y. Sergie et al.Problem statement: Earlier work on ohmic heating technique focused on viscous food and foods containing solid particles. In this study, the use of ohmic heating on sterilization of guava juice is carried out. Computational fluid dynamics is used to model and simulate the system. Approach: Investigate the buoyancy effect on the CFD simulation of continuous ohmic heating systems of fluid … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,833 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegration of Electrical and Electromagnetic Investigation for Contaminated SiteAlberto Godio, Mario NaldiProblem statement: The environmental assessment of industrial areas is required to minimize the risk of soil and groundwater contamination. The survey of wide areas (e.g., some hectares) provides a high economical and complex logistical impact when random strategies of soil sampling are adopted. Recently, geophysical methods had been successfully adopted to drive the process of the spatial sampling of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,163 accessesView PDFCite
