Fifteen samples of drinking water sourced from boreholes were randomly collected and analyzed using Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) and the technique employed is wet oxidation method. The results of Arsenic concentration obtained... Continue Reading

77) Geoelectric Imaging Of Groundwater Pollution

A resistivity survey was made in some part of PTI dumpsite in order to determine the quality of the ground water in that area. The survey consisted of 5 electrical soundings which were carried out using the Schlumberger array configuration with a current electrode separation of 126m.  The data was interpreted by computer aided iteration... Continue Reading

78) Geoelectric Mapping Of Groundwater Potential In The Sports Complex

Geo-electrical survey using Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) was carried out in the Sports Complex of Federal University of Petroleum Resources, Effurun Delta State (FUPRE) in order to determine the groundwater potential of the area and the aquifer distribution. The Schlumberger electrode configuration was used with a maximum current... Continue Reading

79) Comparative Assessment Of The Socio-economic Effect Of Crude Oil Exploitation

CHAPTER ONE BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY 1.1     Introduction Petroleum is among the various resources produced by nature. They are used by human to satisfy their needs such as transportation, cooking, electricity power supply and others (Mike, 2012). The exploitation of natural resources such as crude oil is the use of natural resources for... Continue Reading

80) Assessment Of The Effects Of Sand Excavation On The Environment

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1     Background to the Study Soil is an important resource covering the land surface. Mining is the process of getting minerals and soil components for various uses. Man depends on soil for agriculture, construction and even as a habitat for various organisms (Mwangi, 2007). People benefit from soil particularly... Continue Reading
