  Combine Effect of Dry and Decomposed Raffia Palm in the Bioremediation of Oil-based Drill Cutting

  By Bright Nweke, Achinike Okogbule-wonodi, Raymond Ekemube

  Abstract: This study determines the effect of dry substrate and decomposed raffia palm for degradation of oil- based drill cuttings bioremediation. The remediation process was effectuated using dry and decomposed raffia palm. The experiment was carried out at the research Centre located at Agricultural and Environmental Engineering departmental workshop in Rivers State University, Port Harcourt. Samples of oil-based drill cuttings were bulked in eleven reactors with four replications (T1, T2, T3-T11). …

  Examining the Rate of Change of Some Physicochemical Properties of a Polluted Water Environment as a Result of Crude Oil Spill

  By Achinike Okogbule-wonodi, Ekperi N. I

  Abstract: This study was designed to look at how the physicochemical characteristics of the aquatic environment changed as a result of crude oil spillage. Samples were collected for analysis of physicochemical parameters, Total Dissolved Oxygen, Total Bacteria Counts (TBC) and Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) content etc., for a period 84 days at 14 days intervals. Over the course of the analysis, the value of oil & grease varied between sampling points …
