چکیده

processing of round potatoes (solanum tuberosum (l.) into chips in tanzania and particularlydar es salaam city is a growing business that attract low wages employees and unemployed occupants. proliferationof chips vendors with low knowledge, poor attitude and practice towards environment have resulted into poormanagement of potato peels waste which are haphazardly disposed of thus causing unhealthy environment,health risks and dilapidated infrastructure. in this paper, the contribution of potato peels to emission of greenhousegases (ghgs) was analyzed for dar es salaam city adapting the unfccc baseline scenario model. based onthe 2012 city population of 4.37million with 5.6% growth rate, peels generation and ghgs emission potentialhave been quantified and projected for 20 years. the global warming potential as co2 equivalent cumulativelystands at 2 kilotons of peels to 1 ton ghgs emission. field investigation to assess feasibility of using the peels forbiogas production as mitigation measure for the ghgs emission was conducted. availability, quantitative andqualitative attributes of the peels for the biogas production in dar es salaam are hereby presented.

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

International Negotiations for Reducing Greenhouse Gases with Emission Permits Trading∗

We build a three-stage game model of international negotiations on regulation of global emissions of greenhouse gases, and examine the Pareto optimality of an equilibirium allocation. First, we derive the condition for Pareto optimal allocations, which is an extension of the celebrated Samuelson condition. Next, we show that although production efficiency of a final allocation is always met at ...

Utilization of Co-digestion of Local Brewery Wastes and Cattle Dung as a Potential Source of Biogas and Organic Fertilizer

Biogas production from co-digestion of local brewery waste (BW) and cow dung (CD) was study for value added to this solid waste. The objective of this research was to fine the optimum condition for maximum biogas production and also examined the effectiveness of the biogas residue (liquor from anaerobic digestion process) as a nitrogen source for the production of okro. The experiments were per...
