Abstract

This study compared the efficacy of Jatropha curcas and Vernonia amygdalina leaf extracts in bioremediating crude oil-polluted silty soil through composite bioaugmentation. Wet-blended extracts (with P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, E. coli) achieved >50% contaminant reduction in 40 days. Predictive models (Minitab) explained remediation outcomes, highlighting the potential of these plant extracts as eco-friendly agents for silty soil restoration in Ogoniland, Niger Delta, Nigeria. The study investigated the comparative efficacy of Jatropha curcas and Vernonia amygdalina leaf extracts in bioremediating crude oil-polluted soils through composite bioaugmentation. The leaf extracts, harboring P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and E. coli, were prepared via sun drying, room drying, and wet blending, and applied to contaminated sandy, loamy, and silt soils. Results showed that wet-blended extracts demonstrated superior remediation performance, achieving over 50% reduction in contaminant levels. Treatment with 10-40g of leaf extract over 40 days significantly reduced contaminants, with optimal results observed in sandy soils. Using Minitab software, predictive models were developed to estimate the impact of leaf mass, treatment time, and soil pH on the remediation of hydrocarbons, lead, zinc, and chromium. The models were statistically significant (p < 0.05) with good explanatory power (high R²), indicating their potential for predicting remediation outcomes. These findings highlight the potential of Jatropha curcas and Vernonia amygdalina as effective bio-remediation agents for crude oil-polluted soils, offering a sustainable solution for environmental restoration.

Abstract

This study evaluates the comparative efficacy of Jatropha curcas and Vernonia amygdalina leaf extracts in phytoremediating crude oil-polluted sandy soil. Leaf extracts containing P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and E. coli were prepared via sun drying, room drying, and wet blending. Wet-blended extracts (10-40g, 40 days) achieved significant reductions: - Hydrocarbons: 2.40 μg/mL (Vernonia amygdalina), 2.11 μg/mL (Jatropha curcas). Lead (Pb): 0.99 μg/mL (Vernonia amygdalina), 0.72 μg/mL (Jatropha curcas). - Zinc (Zn): 0.71 μg/mL (Vernonia amygdalina), 0.51 μg/mL (Jatropha curcas). Predictive models (R² > 0.875) developed using Minitab software demonstrate the impact of leaf mass, treatment time, and soil pH on remediation. Results highlight the potential of these plant extracts as sustainable bio-remediation agents for crude oil-polluted sandy soil, offering an eco-friendly solution for environmental restoration.

Abstract

This study focuses on enhancing lubricating oil performance through the integration of viscosity improvers in multi-grade blends. A systematic approach was followed to formulate a high-performance multi-grade engine oil, starting with 5 liters of base oil and 1 liter of paraffin oil (100N). Additives (0.42 kg, 7% of the total blend) including Aspen, Tackifier, anti-wear, corrosion inhibitors, detergents, dispersants, and antioxidants were meticulously measured and added to the mix. The mixture was heated to 70°C to facilitate reaction between the base oil and additives, and then cooled to room temperature (around 30°C). Subsequently, 0.5 kg of viscosity index improver was introduced into the mixture, followed by the addition of 5 grams of dye. Quality control tests were conducted to ensure compliance with Standard Organization of Nigeria (SON) standards. The results showed that the product met the stringent specifications outlined by the regulatory body, demonstrating reliability and performance. This study highlights the importance of viscosity improvers in enhancing lubricating oil performance and meeting industry standards.

Abstract

Natural gas dehydration is a crucial process in the energy industry, ensuring pipeline quality gas that meets stringent specifications for transmission and distribution. This research examines key technologies employed in natural gas dehydration, including glycol absorption, desiccant adsorption, solvent salt adsorption, chemical cooling, and hydrate suppression. Among these, glycol absorption remains the most widely used method, particularly in large-scale gas processing operations. However, it faces significant challenges such as emissions, glycol losses, and degradation, particularly in Nigeria's gas fields and storage facilities, impacting operational efficiency and environmental compliance. Desiccant adsorption offers high dehydration efficiency, achieving very low water dew points, but requires effective regeneration strategies and is often limited to specific applications due to cost and complexity. Other methods like solvent salt adsorption, chemical cooling, and hydrate suppression have niche applications but are less prevalent for mainstream gas dehydration. This study focuses on optimizing glycol absorption systems, addressing prevalent issues, and proposing practical solutions to enhance gas processing performance. It details the technology's process flow, operational challenges, and potential fixes for improving dehydration efficiency, reducing emissions, and minimizing losses. Key aspects like glycol circulation rates, regeneration systems, and contamination management are analyzed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the process.

Abstract

  This study explores the impact of semi-lean amine streams on energy consumption in gas purification units, focusing on Methyl Diethanolamine (MDEA)-based processes. By integrating an absorption column split stream and flash unit, we evaluate the potential energy savings and operational efficiency improvements. The results show that the split-flow design reduces amine flow rate from 4616 kmol/hr to 2622 kmol/hr, and total energy consumption decreases from 133,415,348 Btu/hr to 121,584,268 Btu/hr. Additionally, the reboiler duty is reduced from 112,744,989 Btu/hr to 104,574,974 Btu/hr. The integration of absorption column split stream and flash unit offers a promising approach to enhance energy efficiency, reduce operational costs, and minimize environmental impact

Abstract

  Boosting carbon capture in coal-fired power plants is crucial for achieving greener energy and mitigating climate change . Pinch analysis, a systematic optimization technique, enhances carbon capture efficiency by minimizing energy consumption and reducing environmental impact. In coal plants, achieving high-purity CO₂ capture is a key objective. Using a 30% MEA (monoethanolamine) solution for carbon capture introduces an initial energy premium of 17.6%. However, applying pinch assessment techniques results in a significant 12.3% reduction in overall energy consumption. This translates to a substantial 50% decrease in energy requirements for carbon capture operations. The implementation of pinch analysis enables coal-fired power plants to achieve an impressive 90% CO₂ capture efficiency, underscoring the potential of this approach to enhance sustainability and cost-effectiveness. By optimizing heat exchange networks and identifying optimal heat transfer points, pinch analysis reduces energy and water consumption in carbon capture processes. This systematic optimization contributes to operational efficiency improvements, paving the way for greener and more sustainable power generation practices. The use of pinch assessment techniques offers a pathway towards cleaner energy production, reduced environmental footprints, and compliance with global climate goals . By strategically matching hot and cold streams, coal plants can minimize resource usage while boosting carbon capture performance.
