Sedimentary basins in Nigeria have been explored for hydrocarbons for several decades, thus the oil companies collected large subsurface temperature data basis. But not much is known about geothermal conditions within Nigerian Precambrian crystalline province. On the basis of BHT data from oil wells it has been found that geothermal gradient in Niger Delta ranges from 1.3 to 4.7°C/100m and in Anambra Basin (directly to the north) it can reach 5.5°C/100m. Exploration for geothermal energy in northern Nigeria based on shallow water wells (down to 500 m deep) was carried out over 20 years ago. Research was concentrated mainly on geothermal conditions within Sokoto and Nigerian part of Chad sedimentary basins, where relatively high geothermal gradients were found: 7.6° and 5.9°C/100m respectively. In north-western Nigeria the geothermal anomaly of Sokoto basin extends to the Niger territory. The other aspect of geothermal exploration in Nigeria is investigating of the thermal springs and seepages, which occur mainly within sediments of the Middle and Upper Benue Trough. The water of the warmest springs in that area: Akiri and Ruwan Zafi have the temperature about 54°C and it suggests the occurrence of some geothermal anomalies. So far, there is probably the only one (direct) geothermal energy utilisation site in Nigeria. It is a swimming pool where water from Ikogosi warm spring (37°C) is used. It is located in south-western part of the country, in Ekiti state.","PeriodicalId":128977,"journal":{"name":"Science Forum (Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121081230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three sets of composites were made with bagasse, sweet potato peel and a hybrid of bagasse and sweet potato peel respectively. Mechanical properties of the composites were investigated with respect to the filler content of the various polymer composites and compared to the unfilled polyethylene which acts as the control sample. There was obvious improvement of some mechanical properties due to the reinforcing ability of the fillers. The elastic deformation characteristics of the composites were investigated using different methods for determining load-elongation behavior of composites. The SPP-filled composites showed a better trend of behavior which is attributed to a better interfacial interaction. The SEM micrographs confirmed this by showing a significantly higher interfacial interaction between the components of the SPP-filled composites as compared to the bagasse-filled and the hybrid composites. On the basis of filler loading, 40% filler content gave the optimum set of mechanical properties for the composites produced.","PeriodicalId":128977,"journal":{"name":"Science Forum (Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125433903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
