DEVELOPMENT OF WASTE BASED BIOSTIMULANT FOR THE REMEDIATION OF CRUDE OIL CONTAMINATED SOIL
ABSTRACT
In this research work, the development of a waste based Biostimulant in the remediation of Crude-oil contaminated soil was investigated. Biostimulants used was plant waste (Plantain Peel) at a constant proportion of crude oil contamination and treated with varying concentration of biostimulant (10%w/w, 15%w/w, 20%w/w, 25%w/w, 30%w/w). Microsoft Excel tool and Design Expert statistical software were used in the kinetic study and optimization of the process. The treatment period was done in 28days days. At the end of the study, in the sample treated with 100g PP the TPH was found to reduce from 28346 to 17498(mg/Kg) with %D equal to 39.2%, in 150, 200, 250 and 300(g) PP treament, TPH reduce from 28344 to 16595, 28343 to 15251, 28340 to 13883 and 28338 to 12255(mg/Kg) with corresponding %D of 42.07, 46.47, 50.74% and 55.98(%) respectively. The optimization results shows that the optimum TPH and HUB value was 14190.9mg/Kg and 2.34162cfu/g at mass A=282.312g, time B= 3.38379wks and temperature C= 21.3207oC with desirability of 1. Which showed that the predicted model actually fits the experimental data. The results so obtained shows that agro waste based technology using plantain peel is a cheap and effective means of bioremediation of crude oil contaminated sites.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the topic “Development of a Cloud Based Security Information System” recommended for Information System Project?
Yes it is highly recommended — Computer network is a collection of devices that can store and manipulate electronic data, interconnected in such a way that their users can store, retrieve and share information with each other. Cloud Based Security Information System has always played a vital role in the stability of a nation. The aim of the study is to develop a Cloud Based Security Information System for security information storage and retrieval. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were set out to ensure proper protection of information in a shell petroleum development company, develop a software for managing security information, and restrict unauthorized access of the company’s and individual’s information in a network system. The motivation that led to the implementation of …
Can the material for “Deterministic Inventory Model and Its Application to Mouka Foam Industry” be used as a guide for Economics Project?
Yes it can be used — It is often necessary to keep inventory in order to meet with fluctuations in demand and also to avoid shortages that might lead to los of goodwill. Thus, most companies, to absorb certain fluctuations in demand strictly adhere to safety stock control. This approach could be the deterministic inventory which assumes that demand is known with certainty. The deterministic inventory model which reviews when to place an order or produce more goods was applied to a foam industry in this work. Empirical evidence therefore reveals that keeping inventory is an integral part of production and hence, production cannot be said to be completed until goods produced are bought by the final consumer. …
Can the material for “Bio-Metric Authentication of Voters and Voting Process” be used as a guide for Computer Science (CS) Project?
Yes it can be used — The elections that are made by using traditional methods are no longer preferred because of the long period of preparation, fake voting, faulty voting, mistakes made in counting the votes, long period of counting and high cost of voting process. In order to avoid these disadvantages affecting directly the economy and policy of the country, it is obligatory to carry the available voting system to an electronic system. Reacting to allegations of widespread voter impersonation (or “election rigging”, as commonly referred to in Nigeria) the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) attempted to conduct audits in several constituencies to determine the extent of multiple voting and voter impersonation. This should have been possible by comparing the fingerprints in the voters’ rolls …
Can the material for “Growth Performance and Blood Parameters of Claris Garipenus Fed Graded Level of Melon Shell as a Replacement for Maize” be used as a guide for Fishery and Aquaculture Project?
Yes it can be used — Melon Shell is usually considered an agricultural waste. The shell is light brown in colour and light in weight like flakes hence usually floats when scattered in water. Investigation reveals the following problems of existing growth performance and blood parameters of clarias garipenus fed graded level of melon shell as a replacement for maize research work; lack of information relating to the potential of melon shell as feed ingredient to aid floatation, and improper optimum replacement level of maize with melon shell as energy source that will give the best growth, and survival, in Clarias gariepinus fingerlings. The aim of the study is to compound a feed that float using melon shell as floating device. In achieving this aim, the …
Can the material for “Federalism and National Integration in Nigeria: Issues and Challenges” be used as a guide for Political Science Project?
Yes it can be used — The problem of federalism and the associated crises of national integration in Nigeria raise serious alarm. The situation attracts growing interest and concern.

Is the topic “Analysis of the Problem of English Pronunciation Among Yoruba Speaker on Effective Communication in English Language” recommended for English / Yoruba Project?
Yes it is highly recommended — Language learning practice often assumes that most of the difficulties that learners encounter in the study of language are consequences of the degree to which the native languages differ from the English of the native speakers. This research work is basically analyzed problems of pronunciation among the non-native speakers of English, especially the Yoruba People. The Yoruba Speakers of English encounter problems in pronouncing some English sounds because they are not aware that some English Phonemes exist. Some are aware but do not know where and how to use them. Examples of these sounds are: /θ, ð, Ʒ, z, J, ٨, Ʒ: ǝ/. Therefore, they replaced the listed sounds with the familiar ones in the Yoruba phoneme system for example: …
