iamstanc: Photos Of Machine Invented By Unizik Student That Can convert Pure Water Nylon to fuel
A just graduated student of Chemical Engineering Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Anthony Obikwelu, has stunned the science world after he developed and manufactured a machine that can convert plastic and other waste materials into fuel.
Below is the detailed inscription on what the machine is all about. He writes,
This machine produces petroleum based fuel (closely diesel) from thermal pyrolysis of waste plastics.
Pyrolysis is the process of heating organic material at high temperatures in the absence of oxygen. Since no oxygen is present, the organic material does not combust. Instead, the chemical compounds that make up the material decompose into combustible gases and char. The produced gases is condensed to give a liquid fuel.
Pyrolysis presents an opportunity to manufacture low- carbon liquid fuels and decrease the emissions of the industry. These fuels are also compatible with our existing transportation infrastructure which eliminates the need to introduce costly new infrastructure. Complete pyrolysis of organic matter usually leaves a solid residue that consists mostly of elemental carbon; the process is then called carbonization.
As we all know, Plastic goods and packaging and the inevitable plastic waste resulting from them are found all over the world. Plastic is a relatively cheap, durable and versatile material. However, as waste it constitutes a sizeable percentage of the litter we see every day in public places. It is also non-biodegradable; presents risks to human health and the environment; and some types are difficult to re-use and/or recycle. Almost 100 million tons per annum are produced every day. So the process of pyrolysis of plastics is attempted to reduce the waste plastics and to find a source for alternative fuel.
This is really quite an invention as it solves the problem of cost of mining oil. It would help reduce the emiison of harmful waste matters into the air which affects our ozone layer. It will prevent issues of oil spilliage and ocean pollution. It'll also create direct and indirect employment as plastics and other waste materials would be sourced for, thereby creating an avenue through which people can earn a living.
Right now, the only hindrance to this machine is that it needs funding from the government, so it can be developed into a large scale model where millions of litres of oil can be produced daily. He can be contacted via email on Tonytopaz1@gmail.com or Facebook with the name Anthony Obikwelu.

Australian bushfires sparked in September have spread for months, leading to a state of emergency in many regions. As of the new year, the blazes have scorched more than 14 million acres of land, killed about half a billion animals, and displaced hundreds of thousands of people. The blazes are so large and widespread that satellites in space can easily photograph them from orbit. Specialized sensors on satellites that can see through the thick smoke are recording the bushfires' spread. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories. Australia's raging bushfires are so bad that satellites thousands of miles above Earth can easily spot their flames and smoke from space. The fires likely started naturally, though experts think human-caused climate disruption has exacerbated hot arid conditions that fuel the growth of such blazes. Current estimates suggest eastern Australia's bushfire crisis has scorched more than 14 million acres of land, killed about half a billion animals, and displaced hundreds of thousands of people. The photo above - which shows plumes of smoke about half the area of Europe darkening skies as far as New Zealand in a yellow haze - was taken on Thursday by the Japan Meteorological Agency's Himawari-8 satellite. Himawari-8 launched in October 2014 and weighs about as much as a Ford F-150 pickup truck. It now orbits over the same point about 22,300 miles above our planet. Using a variety of onboard sensors, Himawari-8, NASA's Suomi NPP satellite, and other Earth-monitoring machines are returning stunning imagery of Australia's dire situation. Here are some of the most revealing photos, animations, and illustrations of the crisis on Earth as seen from outer space.

Family › Re: How Do Average Nigerian Couples Have More Than 2 Children? by ostechno(m): 4:28pm On Dec 29, 2019 |
James39: See the minimum and maximum should be 4.
I can't give birth to 1 boy and 1 gal.
That's my take. I don't care what others think.
if your parent were so careful not to go beyond 2 kids you won't be here typing this. I'm sure you are not the 1st neither the 2nd.
we are 10 in numbers and we are doing fine.  If you earn a very low income, then you are part of the people causing problem in this country, many people will just give birth to bunches of kids and won't be capable of taking care of them, this kids will end up in the street becoming criminals, that is why Nigeria is overpopulated right now and over 50% lives in poverty. And another thing I noticed about Nigeria is that we are not taking advantage of what we have, which is our population, why do you think China is so developed today, its because they made perfect use if what they have. If you know you can take very good care of 4 kids, even 10, no problem, but when you leave on an average income and you are thinking that way, thay is not a good idea |
