The cosmological aspects of food in the material world
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: • Authors: Joseph Hegarty --- Sheffield Business School, Sheffield Hallam University, Sheffield, UKThere is a general tendency today to believe that all truth worth knowing is to be found in the various branches of the physical sciences. If this were so, there could be no place for a philosophy of matter, or by... -

Optimization of cooking energy mix, an alternative strategy to reduce deforestation: An example of households and restaurants in the Bauchi Metropolis, Nigeria
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Science, Technology, Innovation and Development • Authors: Aondoyila Kuhe --- Department of Mechanical Engineering, Nigeria Danladi Yusufu Bisu --- Department of Mechanical Engineering Technology, Nigeria Humphrey Aondover Iortyer --- Department of Mechanical Engineering, NigeriaCooking is a major energy consuming activity in households and restaurants. Over dependence on fuel wood and charcoal for cooking has been identified as a major cause of deforestation, a major environmental problem in Africa and Asia. This paper presents... -
Computational study of a novel combined cookstove for developing countries
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Science, Technology, Innovation and Development • Authors: Bisrat Yilma Mekonnen --- , EthiopiaThis paper presents a computational study of a novel biomass-solar combined cookstove for developing countries. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study was carried out to understand how the proposed cookstoves perform during combustion. The technique was successfully used for predicting... -
Evaluating the barriers to adoption of improved biomass cookstoves in Benue state, Nigeria
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Science, Technology, Innovation and Development • Authors: Chikamso Christian Apeh --- University of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences, Nigeria Stella Nwawulu Chiemela --- University of Nigeria, Nigeria Chinedum Jachinma Chiemela --- University of Nigeria, Nigeria Andrew Chiahalam Apeh --- Enugu State University of Science and Technology, NigeriaThe prevalent use of inefficient traditional stoves for biomass cooking energy in Nigeria contributes to high rates of biomass consumption, deforestation, and harmful pollutant emissions. This study aimed to assess the constraints hindering the adoption of improved biomass cookstoves (IBCS)...
