Improved gasification of rice husks for optimized biochar production in a top lit updraft gasifier
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2014)
Biochar is a solid material obtained from the carbonization of biomass. If properly produced, it is useful for soil application to enrich plant values. Rice husk (RH) waste, an abundant agricultural by-product, was gasified ...

(Makerere University, 2014-05)
Ionospheric scintillation is the rapid change in the phase and or the amplitude of a radio signal as it passes through small scale plasma density irregularities in the ionosphere. These scintillations, not only can they ...
Using trace metals, peroxide, acid and iodine values to characterize oils bleached using clays from Central and Eastern Uganda
(2014)
The decrease in content of iron in the bleached oils was highest for all oils bleached. The content of copper showed the smallest change. The decrease in copper content for palm oils decreased from 0.2ppm to 0.1ppm when ...
