Plastics being considered the benign substances came into headlines when their presence was first detected in the food chain. These plastics can persist in the environment for hundreds of years. Degrading these persistant pollutant is of major concern for many scientists across the globe. Incinerating plastics is one option but it has many environmental consequences. Besides, bioremediation is the process that many scientists are interested in, as different microbes has the ability to degrade plastics at different rates. Research is needed to come up with the economical and eco-friendly approaches, fast enough to degrade tons of plastic with minimum effect on the environment. Major concern is not only degrading plastics but also minimizing its use and coming up with alternatives that are not only eco-friendly but also cost effective.","PeriodicalId":21574,"journal":{"name":"Science Proceedings Series","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88018398","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}

Therefore, this work proposes a new analytical method for solving non-linear delay differential equations. The new method is combination of Natural transform and Homotopy analysis method. The approach gives solutions inform of rapid convergence series where the nonlinear terms are simply computed using He's polynomial. Some examples are given, and the results obtained indicate that the approach is efficient in solving different form of nonlinear DDEs which reduces the computational sizes and avoid round-off of errors.","PeriodicalId":21574,"journal":{"name":"Science Proceedings Series","volume":"201 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88354961","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}

Samples of urban soils were collected from urban environments of Petaling Jaya, and were analysed for As, Cd, Cr, Cu and Pb. The health risks for adults as a result of ingestion, dermal and inhalation exposure were then estimated. The results showed that the urban soils were polluted with these metals. This could be due to anthropoenic input. The concentration of the metals in soils follows the decreasing order Pb > As > Cr > Cu and Cd. Ingestion is the main route for exposure to heavy metals.

The model is modified to incorporate seasonal-dependent mosquito birth rate in order to examine the influence of climatic factors such as rainfall and temperature on the dynamics of mosquito population and dengue disease transmission. The Next Generation Matrix method is used to obtain the basic reproduction number associated with the model without seasonality effect. The global dynamics of the model is analysed using the Comparison Theorem. The model is simulated in MATLAB with ode45 routine for two cases, namely: the less aggressive case (Case ) and the more aggressive case (Case ). Analysis of the model shows that the Disease-Free Equilibrium (DFE) is locally asymptotically stable whenever both the basic reproduction numbers R01 (associated with strain only) and R0j (associated with strain only) are below unity. It is shown that the DFE is globally asymptotically stable when the susceptibility indices for secondary infection in strain 1 ( sigma1) and strain j ( sigmaj), and are all less than 1.","PeriodicalId":21574,"journal":{"name":"Science Proceedings Series","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88579335","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}
