ABSTRACT This project work is on the bleaching of palm oil using activated charcoal. The charcoal used for this work was made from pieces of animal bone by carbonization method.  It was then activated into two different samples.  Firstly, the basic sample was activated using anaphoric acid (H2 s04) while the other was activated by just heating...

ABSTRACT After clearing for crops, logging is the most important human-driven factor responsible for the reduction of forest cover in sub-Saharan Africa. In general, wood represents about 86% of household energy consumption and the demand is expected to rise to 45% over the next 30 years due to the population growth and increasing needs in this...

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Water is a limited natural resource and fundamental for life and  health  (UNWWDR,  2002). About 97.5% of all water on earth is salt water and the remaining 2.5% is fresh water. Around 70% of fresh water is frozen in... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT Activated carbon, also widely known as activated charcoal or activated coal is a form of carbon which has been processed to make it extremely porous and thus to have a very large surface area available for adsorption or chemical reactions (Mattson et al., 1971). The word active is sometimes used in place of activated. It is characterized... Continue Reading
