A REVIEW ON SOUND WAVES AND ITS EFFECTS ON PLANTS
Abstract: The overall performance and development of cell is due to the elongation and proliferation of cell. The interconnection among various phenomena’s and sound waves is a significant topic to study in order to check the various pros and cons of sound waves on different functions of cell. Experiments show that sound waves of various frequencies, SPLS and of different kinds greatly affect the plants. Certain frequency sound waves such as …

Development of Predictive Model on Corrosion of Metals in Swampy Soil Environment
Abstract: The research carried out to examine the usefulness of corrosion in metals in swampy soil. It also reveals the weight loss and corrosion rate in a metal. The following physicochemical parameters which include BOD, COD, pH and microbial activities were modelled. The extent of metal corrosion in swampy soil is dependent on many different and often interrelated factors, trying to predict what may happen to a specific object after wrecking …

Design and Performance Evaluation of an Existing Cooling Tower in Port Harcourt Refinery
Abstract: The need for efficient and effective waste heat removal systems forms the basis of this research which is the Design and Performance Evaluation of an Existing Cooling Tower in Port Harcourt Refinery. The design performance equation models were developed by the application of the principle of conservation of mass and energy and also from standard correlations from literatures. The input parameters for the solution of the design performance equations were …

Removal of Methyl Orange from Wastewater Using Composite Material
Abstract: The textile industry is one of the pollute activities that most consume water. Industrial dyes are dangerous pollutants, resulting from the textile industry. The textile dyes significantly increase inhibit plant growth, enter the food chain, promote toxicity, and carcinogenicity. The removal of textiles dyes is usually proposed via adsorption represents a sustainable solution. A composite material was prepared by polystyrene in combination with commercial activated carbon. A series of experiments …

Existing pollutants reaching the Ganga River: A Mini Review
Abstract: Water is very essential for all forms of life. Rivers can be considered to be the main source of surface water. Most of the time our civilizations were generated on the river bank. However in recent times, the conditions of rivers are very badly affected. The reasons for this due to increase in population growth, rapid industrialization and agriculture methods resulting deterioration of waterquality.The Ganga river system has combined length …
