ABSTRACT
Climatic parameters are exposed to variation due to the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases. Hence, it is essential to assess the water availability and demand under the climate variation in Goronyo Reservoir, Sokoto State Nigeria. since the supply of water is one of the significant tasks in water resources management. In this study, estimation of available water, demand, and unmet demand was simulated using Water Evaluation and Planning (WEAP) Software with the o...

ABSTRACT
Water is explicitly linked with economic progress and developmental trajectories of most countries and regions of the world. However, inspite of its significant contribution to quality of life, public health and socio-economic development, water scarcity has continuously remained one of the most excruciating problems around the globe. In view of the disproportionate nature of water scarcity, both in space and time, coupled with urban population growth dynam...

ABSTRACT
The problem of water Scarcity, water pollution and cost of accessing water for domestic needs have become growing concerns to the ever increasing global population. Waterwaterremediation has long been accepted as a viable option to mitigate water scarcity. This research examines the potentials of an environmentally friendly technique of using local but modified tropical plant materials in remediation of greywater for re-use. Column adsorption experiment was conducted using...
View DetailsDESIGN AND USE OF A MODEL CONSTRUCTED HORIZONTAL SUBSURFACE FLOW WETLAND FOR TREATING TANNERY WASTEWATER BY MEANS OF AQUATIC PLANTS
Abstract
In this study, a Laboratory-scale Horizontal Subsurface Flow Constructed Wetland has been designed, and three replicas constructed, cultivated with selected locally available aquatic plants Phragmites australis,Polygonum salicifolium + Ipomoea carnea, respectively, with the third cell un-vegetated, and used to treat tannery effluent. The capacity or treatment efficiency or performance of the laboratory-scale Constructed Wetland in reducing the level of physicochemical param...

ABSTRACT
Water table fluctuation of selected hand dug wells, and hydraulic properties were determined. The methods of investigation included water level measurements, laboratory tests and analysis. The results indicated that the water level values for 16 wells under study ranged from 6.30 – 7.10 m (Minimum) and 25.40 – 26.30 m (Maximum) during rainy season, while the average during the dry season was 7.60 – 8.90 m (Minimum) and 27.10 –

ABSTRACT
Environmental pollution due to improperly managed wastewater has been a major challenge and of public health concern in Nigeria. Not many studies related to wastewater management have been carried out in Nigeria, hence the paucity of data on wastewater management in the country. The Wastewater Treatment Plants (WTP) in Nigeria’s capital city, Abuja are presently performing below capacity due to several problems. The aim of this study was to evaluate the wastewater man...

ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to carry out a flood risk assessment for Ofu River Catchment in Nigeria. Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission Digital Elevation Model (SRTM DEM) and River Map of Africa were used to delineate the catchment boundaries in ArcGIS
10.2.2 coupled with ArcHydro and HEC-GeoHMS extensions while the stream ordering was done using the spatial analyst hydrology tool in ArcGIS 10.2.2. Stage and discharge measured from February, 2016 to January, 2017 wer...
