  • An assessment of the level of awareness of sustainable design strategies among architects in Lagos state, Nigeria.


(1). OluKorede A. James,(2).Obiakor Chinenye ,(3).Oke Oluwadamilare,(4).Odutayo Yimika Sustainable design is a term that has been poorly defined by professionals in the building industry. These terms mean different things to different people and many issues have risen as pertaining to its adoption. Majority of architecture and engineering firms claim they practice sustainable design or say that at some point they have done a few buildings but it can be argued that most professionals have little or no understating of the intricacies of sustainable design. The purpose of this study is to examine the level of awareness of sustainable design strategies among architects in Lagos state, Nigeria. The study sampled 296 architects which was gotten using the Cochran formula. Data was collected with the use of questionnaire administration and analyzed using the statistical products for services and solutions (SPSS) software. The data gotten was interpreted using content analysis. It was revealed that most of the respondents were aware of the sustainable design strategies. This study concluded that although the level of awareness among the architects is high, there is need to ensure it stays that way by ensuring that knowledge of these strategies be mandated for all young professionals going into practice. This can be achieved by introducing it to the school of architecture at all levels. Also, there should be a balance on the information spread on the environmental Importance and benefits of this strategies as this is important for proper application and adoption.

  • Antifungal activity of Ageratum conyzoides Linn. leaf extract against Aspergillus niger


Shende Gaurav1, Mandpe Nayana2 and Shende Shivaji3

Abstract:
Shende Gaurav1, Mandpe Nayana2 and Shende Shivaji3 Ageratum conyzoides Linn. is an aromatic plant belonging to family Asteraceae having potential of antifungal activity. In Well diffusion method, methanol extract of leaves of Ageratum conyzoides L. has shown a striking zone of inhibition is an average 16 mm against Aspergillus niger. The least minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was found out of plant extract Ageratum conyzoides L. with optical density 0.557 in 0.2 ml dilution. This study thus confirmed the antifungal activity or fungitoxicant potential ofAgeratum conyzoides L.

  • Conversion of LDPE and HDPE into Fuels using Nano-Cobalt Carbonate through Pyrolytic Cracking


Amit Kumar 1*, Sarita Tiwari2

Abstract:
Non-biodegradable waste represents a critical ecological test because of its long decay period and unfavourable effect on biological systems. The essential target of this exploration is to examine the possibility of changing over non-biodegradable waste into significant results like petroleum and diesel through synergist processes. Changing over plastic waste into significant fuels adds to asset recovery and diminishes the reliance on limited non-renewable energy sources. The possible advantages, including decreased natural effect, asset recuperation and monetary maintainability, highlight the significance of this imaginative way to deal with plastic waste administration. Various catalysts have been investigated for the process over the years. However, there exists a need for better and more efficient techniques. Thus, we have utilized Nano-Cobalt carbonate for conversion of LDPE and HDPE into fuels, for production of fuel in higher yield owing to the increased surface area to the catalyst. As the world wrestles with a rising measure of plastic waste, this exploration shows a promising way towards a more economical way to deal with the roundabout economy of plastic waste.

  • Introductory remark on Soil Pollution impact on Environmental strength


Kamble Pravin Bhanudas

Abstract:
A vital component of sustainable economic and social growth, soil affects both construction and human health. In order to promote ecological advancement and guarantee domestic environmental security. Soil contamination happens when harmful substances, referred to as pollutants, are found in soil at levels that endanger both the ecosystem and human health. A serious problem that impacts every part of the nation and is a key building vulnerability is soil deterioration. Different substances known as contaminants are naturally present in all soils, whether they are contaminated or not. These pollutants, which are mostly produced by microbial activity and the decomposition of organisms in the soil, include metals, inorganic ions, salts, and organic molecules. Furthermore, different chemicals can be introduced into the soil via atmospheric substances such precipitation water, wind, soil disturbances, surface water bodies, and shallow groundwater. Soil contamination arises when the concentrations of these pollutants beyond the natural values.

  • QUANTIFYING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS AND THEIR IMPACT ON CLIMATE CHANGE


Gathe Pravin Bapuraoji1, Dr. Eknath Pandurang Alhat2

Abstract:
The greenhouse effect, which causes a rise in global temperatures and a variety of climatic disturbances, is mainly caused by greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), and nitrous oxide (NₖO). This study examines the relationship between GHG emissions and global warming in 2023. This research uses data from emission databases, reputable studies, and scientific journals to quantify emissions of important greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). The study offers a comprehensive analysis of emissions by gas type and industry by applying conventional emission factors to activity data.
