The pollution status of the Tendo Lagoon, the upstream section of the Aby Lagoon System, was investigated. The water temperature, pH, turbidity, dissolved oxygen (DO), electrical conductivity (EC), nitrates (NO3 ), and ...

A comparative study of the super cooling and carbonization processes of the gibbsitic Ghanaian Bauxite was investigated. Carbonization of the sodium aluminate solution (NaAl(OH)4 was carried out by introducing CO2 at ...

Background: It is believed that higher methanol content may be present in some alcoholic drinks produced by traditional distilleries or some alcohol brewing companies. As a result of this, there could be a higher risk of ...

Exposure assessment is a strategy for anticipating, recognizing and evaluating employee exposures to physical, chemical, biological and ergonomic stresses at the workplace, so that effective and ‘‘sensible “controls can ...

The accumulation of plastic waste on the globe, with its harmful environmental impact is on the rise. Development of an efficient conversional method for heterogeneous plastic waste streams would not only provide a solution ...

It can be expected that a chiral solvent possesses a certain potential to discriminate between two enantiomers by creating specific weak interactions and forming disastereomeric complexes which have different physical ...

Starch is a polysaccharide that can be hydrolyzed by enzymes and fermented into bioethanol. It is commonly found in Ghana as the effluent during cassava-gari processing. The copious amount and its related stench in the ...

A study of the ternary solubility phase diagrams of enantiomeric mandelic acid species in the chiral solvents (S)-ethyl lactate and (2R,3R)-diethyl tartrate has been carried out. The solubility measurements were conducted ...

Solubility equilibria of the chiral N-methyl ephedrine species in two chiral ionic liquids, (S)-2- (methoxycarbonyl) pyrrolidinium is- (trifuoromethylsulfonyl) amide ([(S)-2-Pro-Me][NTF2]) and (1R , 2 S )-(−)-dimethylephedrinium ...

Ternary solubility phase diagrams of mandelic acid and N-methylephedrine species in chiral solvents, (S)-methyl lactate, (S)-propyl lactate, and (S)-butyl lactate, have been determined. Solubility measurements were performed ...
