  • Determination of calorific values of coconut shells and coconut husks 
    Amoako, George; Mensah-Amoah, Patrick (University of Cape Coast, 2018-12-24)
    The coconut palm has a lot of uses including its use as composites and as fuels. In this work, we explored the use of a bomb calorimeter to determine the calorific values of coconut shells and coconut husks. A fixed sample ...
  • High-Frequency Electric Field Induced Nonlinear Electron Transport in Chiral Carbon Nanotubes 
    Abukari, Sulemana S.; Mensah, Samuel Y.; Rabiu, Musah; Adu, Kofi W.; Mensah, Natalia G.; Twum, Anthony; Owusu, Alfred; Dompreh, Kwadwo A.; Mensah-Amoah, Patrick; Amekpewu, Matthew (University of Cape Coast, 2015-11-24)
    We investigate theoretically the high frequency complex conductivity in carbon nanotubes that are stimulated axially by a strong inhomogeneous electric field of the form Et t ) . Using the kinetic approach based on ...
  • Microbial purification in well-water using uv-vis leds and monitoring using laser-induced fluorescence 
    Sackey, Samuel Sonko; Sefa-Ntiri, Baah; Mensah-Amoah, Patrick; Ntow, Jonathan; Vowotor, Michael Kwame; Huzortey, Andrew; Akyea, Angela (University of Cape Coast, 2017)
    Well-water contaminated by microbial bacteria has been purified using LEDs radiating in the ultra-violet and visible spectral regions. The contaminated water sample was exposed to the LEDs in specially constructed chambers ...
  • Quantitative pore characterization of polyurethane foam with cost-effective imaging tools and image analysis: a proof-of-principle study 
    Yunus, Shemmira; Sefa-Ntiri, Baah; Anderson, Benjamin; Kumi, Francis; Mensah-Amoah, Patrick; Sackey, Samuel Sonko (University of Cape Coast, 2019-11-14)
    This study investigated the pore characterization of polyurethane (PU) foam as a necessary tep in water filtration membrane fabrication. Porous material characterization is essential for predicting membrane performance, ...
  • Spectroscopic study of uv transparency of some materials 
    Sackey, Samuel S.; Vowotor, Michael K.; Owusu, Alfred; Mensah-Amoah, Patrick; Tatchie, Ebenezer T.; Sefa-Ntiri, Baah; Hood, Christiana O.; Atiemo, Sampson M. (University of Cape Coast, 2015)
    Elevated exposure to Ultra-Violet Radiation (UVR) from the sun has led to adverse effects on human skin and foods, and therefore, the need for materials that offer resistance to Ultra-Violet (UV) penetration for protection. ...
