The impact of crude solid waste disposal on the Air-shed conditions of Mwakirunge-Kisauni, Mombasa County, Kenya
(International Journal of Advance Research, 2014)
This paper presents the effects of crude disposal of solid waste on the air-shed conditions of the Mwakirunge dump site. The dumpsite is located within the air route for aircrafts approaching the Moi International Airport. ...
CdxZn1-xS/Pbs Thin film solar cell
(Global Advanced Research Journal of Engineering, Technology and Innovation, 2014)
In this work, n-type CdxZn1-xS and p-type Pbs layers were optimized through chemical solution technique for solar cells. CdxZn1-xS was grown at 82°C while Pbs layers were grown at room temperature utilizing aqueous conditions. ...
Electricity generation from municipal solid waste (MSW)
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
With the world’s energy demand increasing by the day, carbon dioxide emission rate also increases due to the
dependency on fossil fuels for energy production. Several attempts have been made to reduce the dependence fossil ...
Integrated Electricity Tarrif Model for Kenya
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
Tariffs and tariff structures has been changing over a period of time all over the world. This has acted as a key factor
which limits development in third world country. This project therefore seeks to detemine the best ...
Thermal analysis of a CSP-Biogas hybrid power plant
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)

rising demand for sustainable energy. Finding an inexpensive and reliable energy generation technology ...
Genetic susceptibility to endomyocardial fibrosis
(2014)
Background: Endomyocardial fibrosis (EMF) is the most common form of restrictive cardiomyopathy
worldwide. It has been linked to poverty and various environmental factors, but—for unknown
reasons—only some people who ...
Implication of using auxiliary service voltage transformer sub-stations for rural electrification
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
Abstract: Providing an affordable and reliable electricity supply to rural communities is seen by countries round the world as
one of the major keys to development. A good quality and stable electricity supply can provide ...
The impacts of distributed generation using high speed wind turbines on power system transient stability
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
Wind power generation source differs in several respects from conventional sources of energy like hydro and
thermal. Furthermore, wind generators are usually based on different generator technologies other than the ...
Markets and Gender Interaction in Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation: A Case of the Coastal Kenya Sedentary Farm Households’ Experiences
(Journal of Environment and Earth Science, 2014)
Climate change is a global concern which manifests on a multilevel perspective and sometimes distinct or nested
within some geographical boundaries. At the sedentary farm household systems climate change is real and
continues ...
