Analysis of Efficiency of Natural Gas Absorption Process from Water Impurities
The composition of natural gas varies depending on the field, formation, or reservoir from which it is produced. Since the composition of natural gas is never constant, there are standard test methods that can be used to determine the composition of natural gas and thus prepare it for use. The impurities contained in the gas are led to the formation…

Legume Protein: Properties and Extraction for Food Applications
Grain legumes are important sources of protein for nutritional and techno-functional applications. Their protein content is 18-50% protein on dry matter basis. Most of the protein is of the storage type, of which 70% are globulins. The globulin proteins are mainly legumins and vicilins, which are also known as 7S and 11S globulins, respectively. Sev…

Enzymatic Process for Pigeon Pea
Pigeon pea is generally used as a dhal i.e., in split form therefore, it is important to check its splitting i.e., hulling efficiency and maximum dhal recovery. Pre-treatments are commonly given for loosening and removing of the seed coat with retaining its edible portion. Enzymes viz. xylanase, pectinase and cellulose were applied to evaluate the d…

Climate-Smart Maize Breeding: The Potential of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbios…
Maize is part of the essential food security crops for which yields need to tremendously increase to support future population growth expectations with their accompanying food and feed demand. However, current yield increases trends are sub-optimal due to an array of biotic and abiotic factors that will be compounded by future negative climate scena…

Cardiac and Cancer-Associated Cachexia: Role of Exercise Training, Non-coding…
Sarcopenia has been defined as the loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength that occurs with advancing age and has also been related to many metabolic diseases. In late stages, sarcopenia precedes cachexia, defined as a multifactorial syndrome characterized by an ongoing skeletal muscle wasting, with or without loss of fat mass, associated with poo…

This chapter is aimed at demonstrating how the second vertical derivative method is been applied to gravity data for subsurface delineation. Satellite gravity data of some part of Northern Nigeria that lie between latitude 11°-13°E and longitude 8°-14°N obtained from Bureau Gravimetrique International (BGI) were used for demonstration. The Bougu…
