AbstractAbstract
[en] This document contains an editorial focusing on national efforts at the peaceful applications of nuclear science and technology development and its impact on national development. There are also discussions on the current national debate on privatization of the electricity sector, the joint venture strategy for the development of the petroleum industry and the liquefied natural gas project in Nigeria. The World Energy Congress (WEC) summit of 1995 was reported. We wish to thank the Director General and members of the editorial board for making available the publication

AbstractAbstract
[en] The purpose is to train and develop the adequately qualified manpower in the areas of nuclear science and technology. Various options were introduced by the science departments, based on the existing facilities within the university. Twenty final year students were selected annually to attend a summer school in reactor physics and technology at the Karlsruhe Institute for Nuclear Research in West Germany. Also, there was approval for an annual recruitment quota of twelve graduate assistants for the nuclear project. Fifty qualified students were trained for various courses in nuclear science and technology both in the country and abroad. There had been graduates in nuclear science and technology courses up to the doctorate degree level. Part of efforts in the manpower has been directed towards the acquisition of adequate equipment for the teaching laboratories. The establishment of a training center in nuclear technology at Ahmadu Bello University and at University of Ife can only be considered as the zero phase in the nuclear programme of Nigeria. Funding of the nuclear programme must be guaranteed. It is also suggested that the nuclear project be allocated sufficient foreign exchange to meet all its commitments. (A.S.)

AbstractAbstract
[en] Effective control of processed food and medicines is crucial for the maintenance of public health. Issues of wholesomeness, quality, efficacy and safety are of paramount concern to both consumers and regulatory agencies alike. Laws and regulatory are put in in place to ensure minimum standards of practice by the various operators in the food and pharmaceutical sub-sectors, such as will guarantee that the regulated products (food, drugs, cosmetics, medical devices, chemicals and bottled water) they deal in satisfy all the parameters of quality, wholesomeness, efficacy and safety. National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) was established to enforce all relevant laws and regulations on food and drugs among other-regulated products. NAFDAC has put in place appropriate administrative structures and procedures in its efforts to fulfill its mandate. Finally, the agency is in the process of extending its regulatory and control activities to cover irradiated food products in order to safeguard public health

AbstractAbstract
[en] The Niger delta is a rich oil and gas province with great development potential and the present Memorandum Of Understanding(MOU)/Joint Ownership Agreement (JOA) framework has resulted until 1992 in more investments, increased production and reserves. The National aspirations of i. 25 billion barrels reserves, ii. 2.5 million bopd production and iii. reduction of gas flaring are achievable but funding problems, margin erosion and lean economy are jeopardizing the industry's confidence and ability to proceed. If oil investment is not restored, oil production and Government revenues will decline significantly. The solution is potentially simple and is already embedded in the existing MOU/JOA structure. A coherent National Energy Policy is required to exploit Nigeria's gas potential to the fullest

AbstractAbstract
[en] Alternative energy sources should be developed to replace fast depleting fossil fuels. The global energy crisis has generated interest in the use of animal waste as a substitute for fossil fuel. The production of biogas which is a mixture of methane, carbon dioxide and traces of other gases, is a biogical process through which wastes are converted to fuels. Through this process, an energy resource that can be stored and used efficiently is produced and an excellent residue that retains the fertiliser value of the original waste is created. This article discusses the biochemistry involved in the production of biogas by anaerobic fermentation of organic waste materials and also the mechanisms of methano genesis involved

AbstractAbstract
[en] The results of optical (traditional optical absorption and orthodox look-in photoluminescence) investigations in GaAs/AlxGa1-x As MQW with x 0.3 are reported. The comparison of the experimental data with theoretical data obtained using the simplified envelop function model (SEFM) which includes non-parabolicity in both the well and the barrier supports the about 67.33 values of the band discontinuities. The results of the investigations suggest that such factors as strain, band model, theoretical model, in addition to the uncertainties in the well-width and some other parameters like the effective mass, exciton binding energy, and the energy gap contributed to the controversy witnessed over the band discontinuities in the early eighties

AbstractAbstract
[en] The absorbed dose rates in air due to the presence of radioisotopes 40K, 238U and 252Th in soils in Ondo State, South Western Nigeria have been determined by first estimating the concentration of these radionuclides in the soils of the area. The concentrations of the radionuclide were measured using a multichannel pulse-height analyser connected to a 7.6 cm. x 7.6 cm. NaI(TI) detector and by the use of appropriate conversion factors, the absorbed dose rates in air, at a height of 1.0 m. above the ground were computed from the concentrations. The concentrations of the radioisotopes are expressed in BqKg1 of dry weight and the corresponding absorbed dose rates in air are expressed in nGyh-1 with mean of the acceptable International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) dose limit

AbstractAbstract
[en] Natural gas resource reserve is between 120-140 tcf and associated gas production is 2 billion cf/d. Utilization is 25%. There is need to foster cooperation among gas suppliers, transporters, marketers and government. Gas utilization can be increased through (i) increase in local gas consumption via general economic growth, relative pricing and supply distribution, (ii) special incentives to (a) alleviate special difficulties posed by remote gas locations (b) as progressive gas policy via budget incentives. Our national oil export can be improved by increased utilization of gas, rather than oil for thermal power plants

AbstractAbstract
[en] The energies of neutrons emitted from the target of a 14 MeV neutron generator were measured for various emission angles relative to the direction of the deuteron beam. The cross section of 90Zr(n, 2n)89Zr reaction was measured using 93Nb(n, 2n)89Nb reaction as the neutron flux monitor. The neutron energies were deduced from an empirical formula giving the cross section of 90Zr(n, 2n)89Zr reaction as a function of the neutron energy. The results obtained are in good agreement with the values obtained by calculation using another empirical formula
