Abstract:

Aim of the study was to assess the physicochemical characteristics of rainwater at urban and rural (north B) Unguja. Twenty four (24) rainwater samples were analyzed for pH, electrical conductivity (EC) and total dissolved solids (TDS) and cations: calcium (Ca²⁺), copper (Cu²⁺), iron (Fe²⁺), chromium (Cr VI) , and anions: fluoride (F^-), nitrite and sulfate...

Abstract:

The research work is aimed at assessing the subsurface or groundwater suitability for human use or consumption depends upon the calculated water quality index values, correlation coefficient and regression analysis. The water quality index (WQI) is main important tool to calculate the characteristics of drinking water quality in rural, urban and industrial area. Different parameters... More

Abstract:

In the last decade, the construction of communication routes has intensified globally. As a result, many case studies have emerged related to the presence of saturated clayey soils in the foundation ground. In order to speed up the execution of highways and railways in a safely manner, the designers use different methods for improving... More

Abstract:

Although PVDF flat sheet membranes have been widely tested in MD, their synthesis and modifications currently require increased use of green and inexpensive materials. In this study, flat sheet PVDF membranes were synthesized using phase inversion and water as the pore former. Remarkably, the water added in the casting solution improved the membrane pore sizes;...
