Abstract

The present study was conducted in the Kisangani region of the northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo in 2018-2019. The objective was to evaluate the influence of the seasons in the face of armyworm attacks on the behavior of three new biofortified maize varieties being introduced in the Tshopo Province. These trials were conducted using a split plot design with three replications and the results were analyzed using R Studio version 3.6 statistical software. The results at (p<0.05) show that all three varieties were attacked by armyworms. The overall average incidence was significantly similar to that of the control. During two cropping seasons, the maize varieties tested showed variable armyworm attack rates: Yellow Plata (14.16%) SAM4 VITA/A (18.05%) SAM4 VITA/B (16.44%) and PVA SYN- 18 F2'' (14.66%). As for the variation of attack between seasons, the results of the statistical analysis showed that season B had a higher attack rate (25.54%) than season A (6.11%).

Abstract

The objective pursued in this research was to assess the potential of cassava cultivation in the non-incineration of cut plant biomass in the management of the stock of organic carbon and its main component in the soil, namely its C/N ratio. . To do this, five cassava cultivars have been introduced including: Obama, M'vuazi, Disanka, Zizila and Sansi. These five cultivars were planted in forest fallow in plots each measuring 0.48ha and repeated four times on the Yakonde series (Y2) on the Isalowe plateau in Yangambi. These plots were developed in non-incineration of biomass and from where 108 disturbed soil samples were taken in two groups, one of 54 samples at one month and the other of 54 samples at six months. culture in soil slices 0-20 and 20-40cm deep. These 108 samples made it possible to evaluate the stock of organic matter (M.O.S), total organic carbon (TOC), total organic nitrogen of the soil in order to determine the values of the carbon/nitrogen ratio at one and six months of age of cultivation of five varieties of cassava. M.O.S under the varieties Disanka (21.2±1.0%), Obama (19.6±0.7%) and Sansi (19.5±2.1%) at six months of age in the 0 range -20cm. While under Obama and Disanka, they were lower and respectively 6.1±1.3% and 7.0±2.9% in the 0-20cm age group at one month. The highest average soil TOC values were observed at six months of age under the Disanka (12.3±0.6%), Obama (11.6±0.7%) and Sansi (11. 3±1.3%) in the 0-20cm range; while the weakest were at one month of age under the varieties Obama (3.5 ± 0.8%) and M'vuazi (4.1 ± 1.7%) in the 20-40cm range. The average values of soil Nt contents which vary from 0.4±0.0 to 1.0±0.0% at the surface and from 0.4±0.1 to 0.9±0.4% at depth under the five varieties of cassava were found to be numerically superior to those of the soil under the old secondary forest in the two slices of soil studied (respectively by 0.5±0.1% and 0.2±0.1%). For the two slices of soil studied, the highest values in Nt of the soil (0.9±0.1% and 1.0±0.0% for the slice of 020cm; 0.9±0.4% and 0.9±0.1% for the 20-40cm slice) are observed at six months of age respectively under the Sansi and Disanka varieties. As for the C/N ratio, it decreases with the depth of the soil, except for the Zizila and Disanka varieties at one month of age. The highest mean values are observed under Sansi (12.4±2.8) at one month of age and under Disanka (12.3±0.3) at six months of age in the 0-20cm range; the weakest are under Obama (7.7±7) at one month and under Zizila (7.5±0.6) at six months of age in the 20-40cm range. In fact, the highest mean value of the C/N ratio remains that of the control forest taken as the reference forest.

Abstract

The Balai Pungut Gas Engine Power Plant (PLTMG) is one of the plants in the Pekanbaru sector and part of the North Sumatra Plant (KITSBU). This PLTMG has a capacity of 7 x 17 MW with dual fuel systems, namely Solar and Gas. For gas fuel, it is the main fuel of PLTMG because the gas efficiency is higher than diesel. However, diesel fuel is the main fuel that must be used for PLTMG engines as gas fuel, so diesel fuel must be supplied continuously for the consumption of PLTMG needs. Therefore, the Fuel Feeder system for Solar fuel must have reliable performance. However, at PLTMG Balai Pungut, there are often problems or problems with the Fuel Feeder, this is because the protection system shows the occurrence of a Fuel Feeder travel system that occurs in fuel feeder equipment components that experience voltage input instability. After analysis due to the impact of resources in the SUTT System Network as a supply center line experienced Transient. Therefore, the Power Supplay Electrical System for Fuel Feeder equipment needs to be modified with the addition of an inverter, the source of which is taken from the battery as a source of constant direct voltage and voltage converted back and forth to play the electricity system of the Fuel Feeder PLTMG Balai Pungut.

Abstract

This study developed in the town of Isiro in the province of Haut-Uélé, in the north-east of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, made it possible to produce a piezometric map of the superficial aquifers of this town using the triangle interpolation method. The quality of the groundwater studied was assessed by analysing a number of physico-chemical (temperature and pH) and bacteriological (total coliforms, faecal coliforms, faecal streptococcus and Escherichia coli) parameters. Two major superficial hydrogeological units have been defined, one unit consisting of lateritic formations and the other of ancient and modern Quaternary alluvium. The groundwater flow is mainly local, with water flowing over short distances from topographically high points. The hydraulic gradient varies between 0.02 (or 2%) and 0.06 (or 6%) with an average of 0.038 (or 3.8%). The depth map of the piezometric surface indicates that the water table is deeper on the plateaus (over 7m) than in the valleys. The flow rates of the springs vary according to the amount of rainfall. Temperatures ranged from 23.7 to 30.9°C. The pH values show that the analysed waters are strongly to slightly acidic (pH between 3.5 and 6.6). The groundwater studied shows a high level of bacteriological pollution.

Abstract

A study was conducted between December 2021 and July 2022, to contribute to the physico-chemical characterization of the waters of Balobo, a tributary of the Ngiri River, Middle Congo River Basin in Democratic Republic of the Congo. These waters have particular physico-chemical characteristics: brown waters known to be acidic, with a sour taste, with low light penetration, which raises questions in relation to the diversity and abundance of fish. Some physico-chemical parameters of the water (velocity, flow rate, temperature, pH, Secchi transparency, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, total dissolved solids, ammonium and nitrate) were determined in situ and in the laboratory of the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Kinshasa. The results obtained show that the average morphometric values of the stream are: width (8.10±1.03 m), depth (0.81±0.023 m), velocity (0.094±0.04 m/s) as well as flow (0.59±0.4 m3/s). The water temperature of Balobo varies between 23.9°C and 29.8°C, with an average of 27±1.04°C. The waters of Balobo are brown with low Secchi transparency oscillating between 23 cm and 67 cm, with an average of 46.1±14.6 cm and turbidity especially in the dry season characterized in May by a minimum Secchi of 20 cm and a maximum of 30 cm, with an average of 25.6 cm. Turbidity ranges from 63.4 to 109.8 NTU, with an average of 92.5±14.4 NTU. The waters of Balobo are highly acidic, with pH ranging from 3.1 to 4 with an average of 3.4. Their dissolved oxygen content is very low and varies between 1.03 and 2.7 with an average of 1.62±0.5 mg/L. Total dissolved solids in the Balobo water ranged from 57.1 to 101.3 mg/L with an average of 83.8±15.23 mg/L. Ammonium content in Balobo water ranged from 0.150 to 1.097 mg/L, or an average of 0.613±0.5 mg/L. Nitrate content ranged from 1.02 to 2.06 mg/L with an average of 1.35±0.4 mg/L.
