Moreover physico-chemical aspects are pre-requistic for the assessment of potentialities and to understand the realities between trophic level food webs. Gho-Manhasan, one of the tributaries of Chenab drainage system before its entry into Pakistan passes through the North of Jammu province. This stream acts as a recipient of variou...
Introduction Solar air heaters have been observed to have generally poor convective heat transfer coefficient from absorber plate to the air. This low heat transfer coefficient results in relatively higher absorber plate temperature leading to higher thermal losses to the environment and hence lower thermal efficiency. It is therefore, necessary to improve convective heat transfer coefficient to increase the thermal efficiency of flat plate solar air heaters. To enhance the thermal efficiency...

Introduction Water is the most abundant molecule on earth surface, constiuting about 70% of the planets surface. In nature it exists in solid, liquid and gaseous states. At room temperature, it is nearly colourless with a hint of blue, tasteless, and odourless liquid. Many substances dissolve in water and is commonly referred to as the universal solvent. Water usually makes up 55% to 78% of the human body.1,2 In natural water almost all of the hydrogen atoms are of the isotope protiu...

)规定的允许范围内Introduction The increasing concern on environmental protection and the stringent exhaust gas regulation has made the attention on use of vegetable oil as alternate fuel for engines. The use of vegetable oil in compression ignition engine is as old as diesel engine itself. In Rudolph Diesel’s preface to his 1912 patent he wrote that the “Use of vegetable oil for engine fuel may seem insignificant today but such oil may became in coarse of time, as important as petroleum&am...
Introduction Water is the most essential commodity for all living creatures. Organisms can not survive without water. Water is one of the most essential constituents of the human environments. Man needs it, in the first place for his physiological existence. It is used for many purposes e.g. industrial water supply, irrigation, drinking, propagation of fish and other aquatic systems and generation of fish and hydro-powers.

Introduction Telfairia Occidentalis is an important staple vegetable grown in Nigeria being known for both its nutritional and medicinal values. It is commonly called fluted pumpkin of the cucurbitaceae family and is known by several common names in Nigeria, namely Ugu (Igbo), iroko or Aporoko (Yoruba), Ubong (Efik), Umee (Urhobo), Umeke (Edo). (Akoroda, 1990) It occurs in the forest zone of West africa, most frequently in Benin, Nigeria and Cameroon. It is a popular vegetable all over Nigeri...
Introduction The most often polluted phases of the environmental are the aquatic system, especially the surface water. This is because contaminants in air, soil or on land ultimately end up in the aquatic systems via local precipitation, water surface run-off and leaching of rocks and solid wastes (Forstner and Wiltman, 1983). Sewage, industrial wastes and agricultural chemicals such as fertilizers and pesticides, mineral and petroleum exploration and exploitation are however, the main causes...
Introduction Waste generally means ‘something unwanted’. Its precise definition and scope however, differs from one country to another (Kaseva and Mbuligwe 2005). Waste is something for which we have no further use and which we wish to get rid. Solid wastes arises from unusable residue in raw materials, leftovers, rejects and scrap from process operations, used or scrap packaging materials and even saleable products themselves when they are finally discarded (Tchobanoglous...
