Variation in indoor levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from burning various biomass types in the traditional grass-roofed households in Western Kenya
(Elsevier, 2011-07-31)
Biomass burning as fuel in the traditional grass-roofed rural households of Western
Province of Kenya in open fire places, in poorly ventilated conditions, lead to accumulation
of soot under the roofs. This study ...

(Scienceedomain International, 2016)
METRIBUZIN SORPTION DYNAMICS IN ACID SOILS OF NZOIA SUGARCANE ZONE IN WESTERN KENYA
(2011)
The adsorption, desorption and leaching of metribuzin in agricultural soil samples taken
from Nzoia sugarcane farming area in Kenya were determined using standard methods. The
Freundlich adsorption isotherm constants ...

Effects of faujasite X and Y zeolites on the 1, 1, 1-trichloro-2, 2’bis (p-chlorophenyl) ethane (DDT) degradation during water purification
(2013)
The ability of zeolites to abstract and denature organochloride pesticides finds application in
water purification practices. In this study, activated faujasite X and Y zeolites were separately
exposed to 1, 2 and 4 ...
Effects of zeolites X and Y on the degradation of malathion in water
(2013)
The inclusion of both zeolites X and zeolite Y significantly affected the dissipation of malathion in water. In the
fresh water, malathion degradation followed a pseudo-first order kinetics with concomitant half-life ...
