The Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, has disclosed that it has recorded major breakthroughs following researches it carried out in petrochemicals and automobile engineering. The vice chancellor of the university, Prof Ibrahim Garba, who revealed this when he featured on the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) Forum in Abuja, yesterday, said the university, with the assistance of the Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF), successfully developed a petroleum refining material called zeolite, using a kind of clay called kaolin. According to him, zeolite, which is a natural mineral, can be used in refining petroleum products in the country. He, however, decried that the mineral was not available in commercial quantity in the country. “The Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF) has commissioned a research to develop one kind of material that is used in petroleum refining which is called zeolite – and there are two types. “They found that if we can convert certain minerals to zeolite it will help. This research has succeeded in converting a clay mineral which is called kaolin to two types of zeolite which can be applicable to petroleum refining. “The university has even received a patent certificate from former President Goodluck Jonathan. It is now ready to go into semi commercialisation to produce it in large quantities and that has been successful. “PTDF is also ready to join hands with the Raw Materials Research and Development Council ((RMRDC) to take it to commercial scale,’’ he said Garba also stated that ABU had developed a mini-refinery in its Chemical Engineering Department to train prospective engineers in the practical aspect of petrochemical engineering. According to him, the mini-refinery, which refines one barrel of crude oil per day, was built with the support of RMRDC. The vice chancellor said: “We also have what we call the petroleum or petrochemical mini-refinery. We developed a small refinery that will refine one barrel of crude oil a day. “We do not intend to refine petroleum for our own consumption, but because we have a chemical engineering department, we train engineers that would go into the industry,” he said. Explaining why the university went into such a venture, he said: “We found that, in this part of the country, there are not many oil facilities. We found that if we develop this mini-refinery, our students, when they are really taking their degrees, should be able to know the entire working of a refinery. “It is quite a big edifice that we built and that also came with the support of RMRDC, and it is doing very well.’’ The vice chancellor said the institution had also produced an eco-marathon car through a contest organised by Shell, globally. He challenged universities in the country to produce vehicles that are fuel efficient. Garba further disclosed that ABU won two awards with its Eco-Marathon Car, adding that both universities of Lagos and Benin participated in the two contests in which ABU’s car came tops. “There is also another research in the engineering department whereby we produced what we call the ABU Eco-marathon car. So, ABU has developed one. We participated in two events and we won both. “University of Lagos tried and came close and University of Benin also, but I think ABU is the one that has won the award,’’ he said.

When there is no headway using force and bully.... They result to begging just to save their ass. RASCALS. |
eddyjibs:Yea. ...you can only wish! Firstly most terrorist attacks are politically inclined and motivated. I presume you are intelligent enough to know this. Then I see no iota of sense in blaming the religion for what some unscrupulous people claiming to be muslims do. They don't represent us. They don't represent islam. |

#HELP SAVE MUNIR No doubt, this life is full of trials and tribulations. The degree and extent may just vary. For some the degree of trials is tolerable but yet, some seem to get more than their share of such travails. Munir Lawal is a student of Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. He his an intelligent and vibrant student until when he was assaulted by some unknown persons on 5th June, 2015; which resulted in sudden inability to move or feel his lower limbs. On investigation it was revealed that Munir suffers from Traumatic Spinal Cord Transaction. The latest on Munir is that he had a repair of pseudomeningocele and is currently undergoing physiotherapy with no significant improvement. For Munir to restore back to normalcy he needs to undergo a surgery. The Neuro Surgery Department of M.S Ramaiah Memorial Hospital, India has disclosed the treatment cost of 18 thousand dollars. Munir's family obviously needs help to finance this life saving treatment. It is in view of this that the leadership of Youths Making A Difference Foundation (YMAD) is appealing to well-meaning individuals and organization to please donate whatever they can so that Munir can get the treatment he requires. Whosoever wishes to donate can donate directly to his account ACCT NAME: Munir Lawal, ACCT NUMBER: 2086988458, BANK: UBA OR Contact the YMAD Team on +2348062999950 (Hamza), +2348163496800 (Taariq), +2347034423105 (Mohammed). May God Almighty enable you to make a difference by helping this just course and may He reward you abundantly for your sacrifice. Remember no amount is too small. For further enquiries mail to ymadfoundation@gmail.com or www.facebook.com/ymadfoundation or @YMADnigeria on twitter. P.S You can either be part of the problem or the solution. ...Read more about Munir on www.dailytrust.com.ng/news/around-and-about/how-an-aspiring-kaduna-city-doctor-became-bedridden/132384.html. cc: Fynestboi, olawalebabs, Richiez, lalasticlala
