Optimized Biodiesel Production from Waste Cooking Oil Using Poultry Droppings Catalyst: A Comparison of RSM and Ann

Obahiagbon and Ahonkhai

This study developed a catalyst from poultry droppings for the synthesis of biodiesel from waste cooking oil (WCO). Poultry droppings catalyst characterization was achieved using Brunauer-Emmett and Teller (BET) analysis, fourier transform infrared…

Effect of Catalyst Modification on Biodiesel Production from Waste Vegetable Oil

Monday and Akhihiero

The promising catalytic properties of calcium oxide from eggshell makes it desirable as a heterogeneous catalyst for the production of biodiesel from waste oil. This study investigated the effect of modifying plain calcium oxide from chicken eggshells on the…

Artificial Neural Networks for Modelling Biodiesel Production from Sesame Seed Oil Using Doped Heterogeneous Catalyst Prepared from Periwinkle Shell

Anene and Ors

This study investigated the synthesis of a bifunctional heterogeneous solid catalyst to produce environmentally benign biodiesel from sesame seed oil. The heterogeneous solid catalyst was synthesized using periwinkle shell as support material while…

Oil Price Shocks and Inflation Dynamics in Nigeria: Symmetry and Asymmetry Approach

Saad et al.

This study uses the linear and nonlinear ARDL technique developed by Pesaran, Shin, and Smith (2001) and Shin et al. (2014) to examine symmetry and asymmetry in the impact of oil price shocks on inflation dynamics in Nigeria over the period 1970 -2019 using…

Impact of Structural Dynamics on Hydrocarbon Retention of The Deposits in The Enugu Axis of The Cretaceous Anambra Basin

The relationship among the southern Nigeria’s inland basins is a direct result of formative tectono-sedimentary interaction within and adjacent to the basins. A full understanding of the nature of these interactions, especially how they were controlled by…

Occupational Health, Safety, and Environmental Risk Management in the Oil and Gas Sector: Challenges, Precautions, and Implications

There are risks related to Health, Safety, and the Environment (HSE) in businesses. These risks can be harmful to people and the environment. HSE experts help make things safer, especially in the oil and gas industry where there are dangers during activities…

Auduson and Ayinde

This paper presents the report of the hydrocarbon reserve investigation carried out using the data set for the Emakpe-field, in the Northern Depobelt of the Niger Delta Sedimentary Basin. The objective of this work was to map out the hydrocarbon reservoir(s)…

EVALUATION OF SUSTAINABLE LOCAL CONTENT POLICY AND HUMAN CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA’S OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY: CASE FOR PETROLEUM TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT FUND

Neeka et al.

This study was carried out to find solutions to three fundamental questions: “to what extent has PTDF contributed towards achieving human capacity development in Nigeria?” “to what extent has PTDF intervention impacted the oil and gas industry in the…

REVIEW OF THE EFFECT OF CHARCOAL COMBUSTION ON HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT

In 2014, about 53 million tonnes of wood charcoal were produced worldwide, this number unsurprisingly keeps increasing especially in African countries like Nigeria, this is due to a lack of electricity, high inflation, and expensive cleaner cooking utilities…

ON THE ISSUE OF THE RESTART TIME OF A CORE ANNULAR FLOW OIL PIPELINE AFTER SHUT-DOWN OPERATIONS

There is a growing number of proposed models for the estimation of the time needed to restart a core annular flow line after shutting down, pertaining the improvement of core annular flow (CAF) technology for transportation of high viscous oil. Existing…

A PRELIMINARY EVALUATION OF THE INDEPENDENT STATUS OF REGULATORY INSTITUTIONS IN NIGERIA’S PETROLEUM INDUSTRY ACT 2021

Oil and Gas have become an integral part of today’s global economy and a key component of many national economies including Nigeria and the nature of institutional, legal and regulatory framework tends to have significant economic, developmental, and…
