{"title":"Feasibility of Water Hyacinth Ash as an Accelerator in Cement Slurry Formulation","authors":"Neminebor Gift, Adewole Steve, Akpoturi Peters","doi":"10.31033/ijemr.13.4.17","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31033/ijemr.13.4.17","url":null,"abstract":"Cement is primarily used in drilling operations to protect the casing against the corrosive tendency of formation fluid and to support the casing with the external load on and around it. Cement slurry is formed by mixing water with Portland cement or with cement containing various essential additives as the case may be and pumping it down through to critical points in the annulus around the casing using various techniques. Class G cement is widely used in cementing jobs because it allows the use of accelerators and retarders for wide range of well depths and temperatures. Due to wait-on-cement time before commencement of drilling of the next section of the well, it is necessary to reduce the waiting time and it ripple effects on cost of drilling by introducing accelerator to the cement slurry. The chlorides of calcium, potassium and sodium are the commonly used accelerators. Water hyacinth ash have been known to contain high percentage of calcium, potassium and chlorine, these elements readily combine with water to form potassium chloride and calcium chloride of which both are used as accelerator additives in cement slurry formulation. The utilization of these compounds in water hyacinth ash as accelerator additives would be a major breakthrough in cementing jobs especially in shallow section of the wells. Locally sourced water hyacinth plants were dried and combusted in air, the ash was then activated with water and filtered. The filtrate was used to determine the thickening time of class G cement slurry and the results obtained was compared with that of inorganic calcium chloride. The thickening times at the various set temperatures for this experiment were close to the inorganic calcium chloride used. Though, the thickening time of cement slurry is dependent on temperature, the concentration of the accelerator in the slurry also affect it.. It was found out that water hyacinth ash reduces the thickening time of class G cement slurry comparatively and therefore, should be considered as accelerator additive in the formulation of oil well cement slurry for accelerating the cement setting time.","PeriodicalId":421022,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering and Management Research","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131599857","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}

Collaborative filtering is a widely adopted approach in recommendation systems, leveraging user-item interactions to make personalized predictions. However, traditional collaborative filtering methods face challenges such as the cold-start problem and data sparsity. To address these issues, researchers have proposed advanced techniques, including Adaptive KNN-Based and SVD-Based Extended Collaborative Filtering. This paper provides a comprehensive review of these two recommendation systems, discussing their underlying principles, advantages, and limitations. Furthermore, we explore recent research advancements and real-world applications, providing insights into the potential future developments in this field.","PeriodicalId":421022,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering and Management Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124088653","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}

People are  conscious about their health and well-being. Multi-specialty and super-specialty hospitals have been established in many urban and semi-urban areas of our country. Several and super hospitals offer quality medical and technological services. There is no doubt that these hospitals have highly qualified doctors, but the support staff has been neglected. Nursing plays a key role  in this hospital industry. The need for training, which is the skills of the employee and the required training skills, has never been evaluated for nursing staff. A Training Needs Analysis (TNA) is a job needs analysis that aims to identify which training needs are truly a priority. Roles and responsibilities must be considered when assessing these training needs. Communicating these needs helps the organization use resources effectively and efficiently. It also helps to avoid unnecessary exercise. Analysis of training needs can also mean a systematic and comprehensive study of various problems to accurately identify the dimensions of any organizational problem. Therefore, the organization will determine whether the problem will be solved through a training program or in some other way. Organizational problems refer to a lack of skills or knowledge when normal results cannot be achieved; the above explanation explains the difference between real and situational performance.","PeriodicalId":421022,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering and Management Research","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116166323","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}

In relation to this study, we saw that the volatility reaction followed a consistent pattern in the Asian region. For all but a few select markets, shocks are homogeneous in size and sign.  Additionally, there is evidence that volatility responses are persistent across all Asian stock markets, which suggests that the impact of volatility will gradually diminish.

Also, running drilling and casing in and out of the borehole poses a huge operational risk on the drilling crew. It is the objective of any well design to minimize safety risks.

The system aims to address several sub-objectives, including harvest time prediction, disease detection, quality assurance, and environmental monitoring. The research utilizes image processing and machine learning techniques to capture mushroom images, analyze their size, shape, morphology, and color, and predict the optimal harvest time. It also focuses on identifying common diseases, researching their early symptoms, and recommending appropriate treatment options. The system incorporates user-friendly mobile interfaces for farmers to provide input on mushroom quality and receive alerts. Moreover, it establishes quality standards, defines criteria and thresholds, and uses machine learning algorithms to train a model for quality assessment. The research introduces an IoT device that integrates environmental sensors to optimize crop growth by analyzing real-time sensor data and recommending corrective actions. The novelties include the use of robotic camera and machine learning for feature detection, personalized disease recommendations based on individual mushroom conditions, promotion of sustainable farming practices, ui-based quality assurance score, and prioritization of corrective actions based on severity and impact.
