In recent times, the indiscriminate disposal of post-consumer plastic packaging material has received global attention. There is a need to develop an alternative from bio-based polymers reduce waste pollution. This work studied effects loading seaweed nanoparticles into agar matrix by analyzing physical, mechanical, water vapor barrier, and biodegradation properties, as well surface morphologic...

Abstract The water issue has become a frontier of public debate globally due to awareness sustainable development. Nigeria's resources are under serious threat from inadequate catchment management that includes widespread pollution indiscriminate waste disposal. Stormwater is now recognized as valuable resource rather than nuisance, especially in large urban centers. Growing demand for exerted ...

Heavy metal pollution caused by the indiscriminate disposal of toxic heavy wastewater has become one serious water environmental issues. In this study, a novel NH2-PAA/Alginate hydrogel with double network interpenetrating structure was constructed alginate, acrylic acid, and other raw materials. Characterized scanning electron microscope, shows three-dimensional porous structure, which would b...

This study assessed the location of landfills in Zaria LGA Kaduna State by use GIS and RS. Increase population has brought rapid urbanization, which turn accelerates rate waste generation. caused indiscriminate disposal within residential centers, are not properly located; these source disease, pollution, unaesthetic.
