Assessing the Environmental Pollution Caused by the Disposal of Polythene Bags in Damaturu Local Government Area, Yobe State
Abstract: Polyethylene or polythene bags are manufactured using ethylene, which is a gas generated during the production of coal, oil, and gas as a secondary product. The majority of plastics are non-biodegradable and can persist in the environment for extended periods, lasting hundreds of years. Nigeria is facing a growing issue with plastic waste, with Yobe state alone producing approximately 132,112 tons of plastic waste every year. In an effort to …

The Influence of The Oxide Layer on The Stress Corrosion Cracking Initiation in The Case of Incoloy 800 in The Alkaline Environment
Abstract: Oxidized and non-oxidized C-rings cuts from Incoloy 800 tubes were tested with the purpose to study the influence of the oxide layer in the first step of the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) mechanism. A mechanical pre-crack of 100mm depth was executed on the external side of the C-rings in order to create some stress concentrations. The oxidized C-rings were obtained by autoclaving for 20 days in demineralised water adjusted with …

A study of The impact of Antibiotic Pollution and The types of Environmental Pollution It causes
Abstract: Antibiotics are essential biological drugs for human health and are the cornerstone of treating infections caused by various bacteria and viruses. However, they also pose a significant risk if misused, as each antibiotic is designed for a specific type of bacteria. Sometimes, due to the evolution of bacteria, many antibiotics have become ineffective and resistant to contamination and infection. Therefore, they can have the opposite effect, polluting the environment instead …

The Environmental Inconsistency is a Natural Behavior of Nature upon “Human Life”
Abstract: “Environment” is an established perception where both living and non-living elements do exist to make it absolutely healthy right from day one. Living elements such as human being, animals, trees and birds are equally very conducive to hold the societal and cultural heritage and on the other hand, non- living elements like land, sun, water do ensure our most reliable lives in the end. In other words, the word environment …

Use of Industrial and Agricultural Waste in Soil Stabilization
Abstract: Soil is the foundation material, which supports loads from the overlying structure. Soil is the most widely used material in a highway system, either in its natural form or in a processed form. Also, all pavement structures eventually rest on soil foundation. The construction cost can be considerably decreased by selecting local materials including local soils for the construction of the lower layers of the pavement such as the sub-base …

Conversion of PET waste bottles into a useful catalyst
Abstract: Metal-organic frameworks (MOF) are composed of metal ions and organic linkers and have many application fields. Most of MOFs are synthesized by solvothermal method and in this method we mainly use DMF solvent.This paper proposed the synthesis method of MOF UiO-66 which is more eco-friendly than conventional method using harmful DMF solvent. In this method we use the PET waste bottles, which causes a lot of environmental problems in all …

Influence of Waste Marble Powder by Partially Replacement of the Cement with M30 Grade to form Green Concrete
Abstract: This paper presents the study of concrete mix design using marble powder. Along the rapid growth of human needs in many sectors, a significant decrease in the availability and viability of the natural resources was always faced. Leaving the waste materials to the environment directly can cause environmental problem. Hence the reuse of waste material has been emphasized. The use of waste marble powder (dust) was proposed in partial replacement …
