The mode of extraction applied was the batch extraction method using dried ground leaves and seeds of the plant that spans through 3, 6 and 9 hours at the end of which the filtrate were analysed for Na, Fe, Zn, Mg, K and Ca using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The study has shown the effectiveness of the extraction of Na, Fe and Zn by the seeds and leaves of the plant due to the high positive extraction efficiency of these metals. The negative extraction efficiencies of Mg, K and Ca recorded in this study indicates that the leaves and seeds of the plant are not effective in the extraction of these metals. However, there is need to carry out more investigation under controlled laboratory conditions as the plant has potentials in extracting metals.<#LINE#>Egbu A.U.@Constraints to Effective Pollution Controland Management in Nigeria@The Environmentalist, 20,3-20 (2000)@Yes$Howard I.C.@Levels and Impacts of Selected Pollutantsin Aquatic Media in the Bukuma Oilfield@Rivers State.Ph.D Thesis: River State University of Science andTechnology Port Harcourt RIVERS State, 227, (2004)@No$Guerra K., Dahm K. and Dundorf.

In an attempt to find the feasibility of developing an eco-friendly and economically sustainable adsorbent for the removal of contaminants from industrial wastewater; the physicochemical characteristics of biocarbons generated from Nipa palm (Nypa fruticans Wurmb) leaves at the same carbonization temperature with differential chemical - modifications were investigated using standard testing methods. The differentially modified biocarbons were obtained through single step pyrolysis after saturating the biocarbons with H2O, H2SO4 and KOH. The domino-effects obtained show that maximum biocarbon yield of 46.6 ± 0.21 % was recorded for basic reagent surface-modified biocarbon (BAC) followed by acidic reagent modified biocarbon (AAC) with a value of 35.1 ± 0.19%) and physically carbonized biocarbon (PCC) respectively. The data showed that, amongst the Nipa palm derived biocarbons, the BAC had the highest fractional burn-off. The percent ash and moisture contents of biocarbons (PCC: 5.8, AAC: 4.3, BAC: 3.7 for ash content and PCC: 6.5, AAC: 6.4, BAC: 7.1 for moisture content) produced from Nipa palm leaves was relatively low; while pH values of the biocarbons produced and characterized have basic characteristics with pH between 6.41 ± 0.11 to 7.81 ± 0.12 which is within the acceptable pH range of 6 - 8. The density of the biocarbons was in the range of 0.64 – 0.89 g/cm3, while porosity ranged from 66 – 79 % with BAC recording the utmost bulk density (0.89 g/cm3) and porosity (79 %). The BAC biocarbons exhibit lower attrition values and showed higher surface area. The iodine number in mg/g follows the order: BAC (814.5 mg/g) > PCC (622.8 mg/g) > AAC (431 mg/g). The overall results indicate that the type of chemical activating reagent plays a significant role in the physicochemical properties of a particular biocarbon and that impregnating the biomass of Nipa palm with KOH produced the best biocarbon amongst the activating reagents used in this work. This implies that, BAC biocarbon will be a superior adsorbent with high micropore content needed for liquid phase adsorption. The inexpensive Nipa palm leaves biocarbons has characteristics comparable to commercial granulated activated carbon.<#LINE#>Mohamad R., Salmah H. and Teh P.

The XRD analysis show that ZnS nanoparticles are of cubic structure with average crystallite size of 2.9 nm – 2.1 nm which is in good agreement with the data found from TEM analysis. Direct band gap of the samples is estimated from UV-Vis absorption and found to lie in the range of 4.9eV-5.3eV. Photoluminescence (PL) of the samples is due to the presence of zinc vacancies and recombination of electron-hole pair at the surface traps of the materials. The FTIR study confirms the presence of protein, the guiding material for biosynthesis of nanomaterial. The thermal stability of the samples is studied with thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).

This analysis suggested the suitability of pseudo-second order type II and type IV kinetic model followed byelovich model for describing the adsorption process of Arsenic-DHR system. The validity of model was further justifiedbased on normalized standard deviation percentage. Also, the applicability of the kinetics models was analyzed with thecloseness of the experimental and modeled values of equilibrium adsorption capacity (qe).The SEM images of dried hyacinthroots before and after exposure indicates the adsorption of arsenic onto DHR. EDX spectrum analysis initially did not showany characteristic signal of arsenic but after exposing to an initial concentration of 2 ppm arsenic gives the characteristicpeak for arsenic at 1.12, 1.15, 1.28, 10.54, and 11.72 KeV. This confirms the binding of the arsenite ion onto dried hyacinthroot. This research concludes that chemisorptions is the rate-limiting step on the basis of highest coefficient ofdetermination, R2, and also on the lowest normalized standard deviation percentage, ? qt(%). @Yes

Good quality of water is of utmost importance for survivalof man and animals, and as we know because the groundwater aquifers are the largest source of fresh water, theircontamination will prove to be havoc. In the light of aforesaid facts it becomes necessary to assess the current groundwaterquality of Shahjahanpur city, in terms of pH value, total dissolved solids, Chlorine, Calcium, Magnesium, Fluorine andNitrate levels, by taking samples from bore wells. In terms of Ph value, TDS, Cl, Ca, and Mg, the values were within theacceptable limits as prescribed by W.H.O, while the levels of F and NO3 were detected to be exceeding their permissiblelimits. Thus, the study reveals the need for proper and timely evaluation of groundwater quality and simultaneouslyhighlights the urgency of the necessary steps to be taken for the preservation and up gradation of water quality to managethe present water resources. <#LINE#>@ @ Venkata Mushini, Rao Subba, Rao Vaddi Dhilleswara and Bethapudi Samuel Anand Andrews, Assessment of Quality of Drinking Water at Srikurmam in Srikakulam District, Andhra Pradesh, India, International Research Journal of Environment Sciences, 1(2), 13-20 (2012) @No $ @ @ Murhekar Gopalkrushna Haribhau, Trace Metals Contamination of Surface Water Samples in and around Akot City in Maharashtra, India, Research Journal of Recent Sciences, 1(7), 5-9 (2012) @No $ @ @ Patil Shilpa G., Chonde Sonal G., Jadhav Aasawari S. and Raut Prakash D., Impact of Physico-Chemical Characteristics of Shivaji University lakes on Phytoplankton Communities, Kolhapur, India, Research Journal of Recent Sciences, 1(2), 56-60 (2012) @No $ @ @ Antony Ravindran A., Azimuthal Square Array Resistivity Method and Ground water Exploration in Sanganoor, Coimbatore District, Tamilnadu, India, Research Journal of Recent Sciences, 1(4), 41-45 (2012) @No $ @ @ Ramesh K. and Bhuvana Jagadeeswari.

The results showed that theseasonal mean varied in the range of 55.81±17.09 to 921.34±532.60 µg.m-3 for the PM10 in the dry season and 14.38±3.01 to266.06±129.79 µg.m-3 for the wet season. The seasonal mean of (PM2.5) ranged from 21.69±9.93 to 122.88±33.90 and3.31±2.36 to 11.44±4.57 µg.m-3 for the dry and wet seasons respectively. Comparatively, the cities’ PM10 load in the dryseason followed the order: Onitsha > Aba > Umuahia > Owerri > Enugu > Nsukka >Abakaliki > Afikpo > Orlu > Nnewi,while the order for dry season means of PM2.5 followed: Onitsha> Aba > Owerri > Umuahia > Abakaliki > Afikpo > Orlu >Enugu > Nsukka. The dry seasonal mean of PM10 and PM2.5 levels in all the cities exceeded the US annual National AmbientAir Quality Standard (NAAQS) of 50 µg.m-3 and 15 µg.m-3 respectively. The student t-test statistics revealed significantdifference between the dry and wet seasonal means of PM10 and PM2.5 (p<0.05) while correlation matrix showed that thePM10 and PM2.5 seasonal mean concentrations correlated positively (p<0.05). The study concluded that having 100% ofthese cities in the dry season for PM10 and PM2.5 and 60 % for PM10 in wet season exceeding the recommended annualguideline limit, portends public health risk particularly to people dwelling in the affected cities.<#LINE#>@ @ Philip R.S and Graham J.J., Fine Particulate Matter National Ambient Air Quality Standards: Public Health Impact on Populations in the North Eastern United States, Environ.

Although commercialactivated carbon is an effective adsorbent, it’s widespread used is restricted due to its high cost and substantial lost duringregeneration. The aim of this study is to investigate the possibility of flyash as an alternative adsorbent for phenol removalfrom aqueous solution .The removal of phenol from aqueous solution by flyash were investigated under various conditions ofontact time, particle size, pH, concentration and temperature. The level of uptake of phenol by flyash decreased withincreasing particle size and pH but increases with temperature. Rate constants for different conditions were evaluated interms of first-order kinetics. The study is followed the pseudo-first-order rate kinetics and is found that the sorption data fitwell the Lagergren equation.The main mechanisms involved in the removal of phenol from solution by flyash were theinteraction between lone pair of electron present on oxygen atom of OH group of the phenol and the silica an d aluminapresent as major constituent at the surface of the flyash. It was found that these low cost flyash adsorbent demonstratedgood removal capability of phenol and hence can be used economically on large scale. <#LINE#>@ @ Oyedepo TA, Biosorption of lead (II) and copper (II) metal ions on alotropisprocera(ait.), Sci.

The quest forsachet water consumption amongst Nigerian students makes the quality analysis of the different brands of sachet wateravailable, an area of interest. Six different brands of sachet water namely: Wilnelly, prephil, apex, lephzzy aljonlife andmayln collected from different parts within the Federal University of Technology, Owerricampus were sampled usingstandard methods. Physiological and microbiological analysis were carried out according to Nigeria standard of drinkingwater quality (NSDWQ) and World Health Organization (WHO), the five brands of sachet drinking water had their Phvalues below the lower permissible limit, ranging from 5.21 to 5.93. Only hephzzy sachet water brand had Ph valued withinthe permissible limit. Turbidity result ranged from 0.24 to 0.43, which could be sad to be acceptable. The total dissolvedsolids result of the brands of sachet water ranged from 21.00 to 156.00. The different brands of sachet water had close rangeresults in most of the parameters analysed and satisfactorily met the set standards. However some parameters such asdetection of various elements, Barium were found above its permissible limit in five out of the six samples ranging from 1.00to 2.00, while lophzzy sachet water had its value below detection level. From the ANOVA test, Ph, total dissolved solids andBarium had significant difference (P < 0.05), while other physicochemical parameters tested were insignificant (P>0.05)among the various sachet water sampled. Based on these results, there is need to observe good quality control analysis toensure conformity with the set standards. Also random testing of market samples will be a good way of detecting whether thequality is meeting the required standards.<#LINE#>@ @ Franklin A, The Human Heart, The Franklin A. Institute Inc.
