(University of NairobiDepartment of Geology, 1978)In 1971 the East Afric3n Power and Lighting Co. Ltd. (EAPL) in collaboration with the United Nations DevelopmentProgramme (UNDP)initiated an investigation in the Rift Valley of Kenya to ... -
An electrical resistivity study of the area between Mt. Suswa and The Olkaria Geothermal field, Kenya
(University of NairobiFaculty of Science, 1989)The D. C. electrical resistivity study of Suswa-Olkaria region was carried out from July 1987 to November, 1988. The main objective was to evaluate the sub-surface geoelectric structure with a view to determining ... -
An electrical resistivity survey in the area south of Suswa volcano
(1992)The area south of Suswa volcano is underlain by volcanic and volcano-sedimentary rocks of the Pliocene-Pleistocene-Recent Periods. These rock types are common waterbearing formations, especially the wea~hered, fractured ... -
Electricity load forecasting using artificial neural networks
(University of NairobiSchool of Computing and Informatics, 2010)Electricity load forecasting has become increasingly important for the power industry. To generate "what is reasonably required" one needs forecast the future electricity demands. However, the accurate load prediction ... -
Electro Catalytic Decompsition Of Captan And Methoxychlor Pesticide Residues Using Cyanocobalamin
(University of Nairobi,, 2014)The current study involved electrocatalytic reduction of the organochlorine pesticide residues which are, (3aR,7aS)-2-[(trichloromethyl)sulfanyl]-3a,4,7,7a-tetrahydro-lHisoindole- l,3(2H)-dione (Captan) and 1,1, ... -
Electrocatalysis of ascorbic acid oxidation on a polyaniline derivatized electrode
(Depatment of Chemistry, University of Nairobi, 1993)The results presented in this thesis reveal marked improvement in the oxidation characteristics of ascorbic acid, when the latter 1.s oxidized on a polyaniline derivatized carbon graphite working electrode. The pH of the ... -
Electrocatalytic Decomposition of Tetrachlorvinphos in Acetonitrile-water Media Using Cyanocobalamin
(University of Nairobi, 2018)This study investigated the electrocatalytic degradation of tetrachlorvinphos pesticide standard in acetonitrile-water media using cyanocobalamin catalyst. It was initiated by reports recorded from various consumers who ... -
