Dual-Mode Smart Waste Bin with Sensor-Based Sorting and Waste Compacting for Manual and Automatic Operation
S.A. Nchor*, A. Amankwaa F. A. Nabila, B. Amponsah, J. Agyapong
This paper presents the design and implementation of a solar-powered, dual-mode smart waste management system capable of detecting, classifying, and compacting four categories of solid waste: metal, plastic, wet waste, and paper. The system employs inductive, capacitive, moisture, and ultrasonic sensors to achieve detection accuracies of 89%, 90%, 91%, and 92%, respectively. Integrated with a GSM-
Parameterizing Key Elements for Simulating Pearl Millet (Pennisetumglaucum L.) Productivity In Semi-Arid Environments: A Calibration and Validation Approach
Nureni I. Lawal, Muhammad M. Haruna, Jibrin M. Dibal
Given the water scarcity and nutritional importance of millet in semi-arid Northeastern Nigeria, this study evaluated the AquaCrop model's performance using pearl millet in Maiduguri. Two-year field experiments under deficit irrigation provided data for model evaluation. A custom millet crop file was developed, calibrated with 2022/2023 data, and validated with 2021/2022 data. The model accurately
Prediction of Fuel-related Properties of papaya Seed Oil and Lard Oil Methyl esters from their fatty acid methyl ester compositions-based models
Ezekannagha C. B.*, Onukwuli O. D.
This work aims to establish a correlation between the compositions of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) and the key fuel properties of methyl ester. The experimental data of the analysis was obtained from the methyl esters of calcined hybrid-banana-plantain-peel ash (CHBPPA)-catalyzed methanolysis of papaya seed oil (PSO) and lard oil (LO) produced at the optimal reaction conditions of temperature 60
A Peer-to-Peer Energy-Sharing System for Smart Electricity Utility Meters
Balinda Roland Mujungu, Kasule Vicent*, Akol Oscar Benjamin
Uganda’s power sector transition from a postpaid to a prepaid electricity metering system resulted in improved revenue for utilities and significantly lowered administration costs. Whereas this system is functionally operational, it lacks a mechanism for direct transfer of purchased electricity units between customers, leading to inefficiencies and limited consumer flexibility. This paper presents
