In this study, the synchronous removal of Pb and Cd ions from aqueous solutions by colloidal particles made from rice husk ash (RHA) in aqueous sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solution was investigated. The RHA derived from rice husk waste... more
Heavy metal pollution is a major environmental problem, especially around highways with high traffic density. This study investigates the levels of Pb, Cd, Zn and Cu in roadside soils of Wukari section of the Wukari-Jalingo highway,... more
This study assesses gas flaring and venting impacts in some oil producing areas in the Niger-Delta of Nigeria. The research instrument adopted for this study was the questionnaire survey and laboratory analysis, both microbiological and... more
Acidic cleaning solution formulated with HCl (5–15%) corrodes pipeline steel when used for descaling in oilfields. Two isonicotinohydrazide Schiff bases namely, N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)isonicotinohydrazide (N-2HBI) and... more
The solvatochromic behaviour of three heterocyclic Schiff bases derived from isonicotinic acid hydrazide (INH) and pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde (L1), furan-2-carboxaldehyde (L2) and thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde (L3) was studied in nine solvents... more
