» CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Trace metals are chemical elements found in all kinds of soils and arePredominant in soils with density greater than 5g/dm3 (Freedman, 1996). The very low general level of their content in soils and plants as well as the biological role of most of them makes them microelements. (Lacatusu, 1998). Assessment of trace metal levels in soils around various industries have been ...Continue Reading »

» ABSTRACT The adsorption of Pb (II) ion onto mixed Achatina fuscatus(P) and Tympanotons fuscatus(S) powder was studied. The results showed that the rate of adsorption increases with increase in initial concentration with time from ten minutes and attained equilibrium at ninety minutes for all combination mixtures of P:S: 100/0, 80/20, 50/50, 20/80, 0/100. An exceptional increase in adsorption was o...Continue Reading »

» ABSTRACT From Rhychophonis phoenici, oil was extracted locally and the iodine value (number) was determined from the extracted oil. The value of iodine that was obtained after experimentation and calculation was 39.34. This Value is an indication that Rhynchophorus phoenici oil is non drying oil and contains a high unsaturated fatty acid that absorbed high quantity of iodine. The research work was...Continue Reading »
