The Kaseba-Katota area is part of the Mesoproterozoic Irumide fold belt trending in a northeast - southwest direction and covers part of the Eastern and Central provinces of Zambia. Outcrops in the area include metasediments, which have been subjected to intense deformation resulting in strong...

Every form of water use results in production of wastewater. The wastewater is characterised by a number of substances which are usually added to it during the process of use. These substances must be removed from the water before returning it back to the environment. The pathogenic nature of...

A series of microorganisms were detected from the Manchinchi Sewage Treatment Plant in the different levels of treatment. The samples analysed were :-raw sewage, secondary clarifier sewage and the maturation ponds effluent at the point where it is discharged into the receiving water body, the...

The erosion of Tuyeres in Refining has been studied in a Physical Model to establish the dependence upon injection conditions such as gas momentum and orifice profile.The erosion phenomena in terms of Mass transfer-mechanisms has also been studied.A coefficient of Mass transfer kc< , has been...

An ecological study was undertaken over a period of one and half years in miombo woodland found in Serenje District, Zambia in order to determine the extent of woodland degradation in the study area as well as determining the avifauna community structure in the study area, and how it responds to...

The work covered in this thesis was carried out between March 1988 and March 1991 in Kenya. The first 8 months of this 3-year study period was spent on compulsory course work and developing a research proposal under the African Regional Postgraduate Programme in Insect Science at the...

The need to determine constituent elements in materials so as to meet various technological demands in many fields is of an extreme importance. This work is an attempt to establish the efficacy of using non-destructive neutron activation methods based on instrumental gamma-ray spectrometry for...

III-V semiconductors and their alloys are by no meanssimple and have some rather subtle properties There fore their increasing commercial exploitation has stimulated phenomenal growth in the research effort devoted to studying their defects and radiation effects. NMR spectroscopy has become...
