| The continuous rise in the total earth’s atmospheric temperature is basically attributed to the greenhouse effects occasioned by increased levels of CO2 and other air pollutants. The objective of this study was to investigate the Influence of propyl gallate antioxidant on the performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fueled with blends of khaya senegalensis (Mahogany) biodiesel on a TD 110-TD 115 single cylinder four-stroke internal combustion diesel engine under constant speed (1500 rpm) and varying load (L1, L2, L3 and L4) conditions coupled with SV 5Q automobile exhaust gas analyser. Khaya senegalensis biodiesel was produced at optimized reaction conditions using reaction variables, viz, 6:1 methanol/oil molar ratio, 0.84 wt. %... |

| Currently, pruned oil palm fronds (OPF) are underused and their existence on palm plantation has created a significant issue of disposal. On immature and young mature palm trees, rhinoceros beetles are the serious pest. This harm created by the pest resulted in greater crop loss owing to beetle harm in the first year of harvest. The tractor mounted mulcher blade produced by Howard Company is currently used in mulching the OPF. The implement performance is low in pulverizing palm fronds and thus discouraged farmers from patronizing the implement. Blades being the main critical component of the device were reworked in terms of geometry and lifting corners to compare the efficiency of the blades with the initial one as control in terms of mulching depth and... |
