The journal welcomes all kind of research/review/abstract papers regarding Engineering subjects including Earth and Planetary Sciences, Environmental Science, Chemical Engineering, Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Renewable Energy, Biochemistry.
Population growth and the development of industrial and port activities along the entire coastline of the city of Abidjan are enormous sources of water pollution. This pollution undermines the quality of these waters by creating ecological conditions that are inadequate for normal aquatic life. To combat this pollution, this study consisted of analyzing the ecological state of the waters of the Abidjan coastline with a view to identifying their ability or inability to promote biological balance within them. Temperature, pH, salinity, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, dissolved oxygen saturation,
Read MoreThe objective of this work was to characterize the oils extracted from the seeds of Citrus sinensis, C. reticulata, C. paradisi and C. aurantium from Congo using hexane and ethanol as extraction solvents. The fruits used to carry out this work come from the cataract plateaus. The seeds were dried in an oven. Citrus seed oil extractions with different solvents were carried out using the Soxhlet method. The physicochemical characteristics of the oils were determined using the AOAC method. Gas chromatography was used to determine the fatty acid composition. The results showed that hexane is the b
Read MorePristine and metal-substituted soft spinel ferrites have received great attention from interdisciplinary research organizations across various disciplines of science and technology throughout the last years due to their versatile applications in industrial, military, and biomedical fields. The Physical, chemical, electric, and magnetic properties of nanomagnetic spinel ferrite materials used in industrial and biomedical applications are strongly affected by their size and surface area which can be manipulated by a suitable synthesis method. Biomedical applications of soft spinel ferrites mainl
Read MoreThis study was initiated with the aim of designing home-made activated carbon filters. These filters should be able to eliminate totally the chemical oxygen demand (COD) in surface water, with a view to alleviating water shortages in rural areas. The artisanal furnace built around an iron skeleton with a maximum temperature of 500 °C was chosen over the non-skeletonized artisanal furnace for activated carbon production. A filtration test on Dougba lake water with nitrate, turbidity and COD concentrations above the WHO standard (2011) identified nitrate as the limiting factor for the filters.
Read MoreForests are one of the most extensive terrestrial ecosystems which provides habitat for a vast array of plant and animal species. Over several centuries of human activities, the total forest area has decreased, and now forests cover 31% of the land area. Approximately half the forest area is relatively intact, and more than one third is occupied by primary forest. Nearly half of the world’s forests grow in five countries: Brazil, Canada, China, the Russian Federation, and the United States of America [9]. The importance of reforestation is undeniable since timber harvesting is gathering pace
