    • Occurrence of nitrate in Tanzanian groundwater aquifers: A review 

      Elisante, Eliapenda; Muzuka, Alfred N. N. (Springer Open, 2015-03-06)
      More than 25 % of Tanzanian depends on groundwater as the main source of water for drinking, irrigation and industrial activities. The current trend of land use may lead to groundwater contamination and thus increasing ...

    • Dynamics of Kaolinite-Urea Nanocomposites via Coupled DMSO-Hydroxyaluminum Oligomeric Intermediates 

      Sempeho, Siafu Ibahati; Kim, Hee Taik; Mubofu, Egid; Pogrebnoi, Alexander; Shao, Godlisten; Hilonga, Askwar (Hindawi Publishing Corporation Indian Journal of Materials Science, 2015)
      Kaolinite-urea nanocompositeswere prepared via intercalation reactions in an attempt to investigate the dynamic nature of kaolinite morphology for advanced applications in controlled release systems (CRS). Characterization ...

    • Meticulous Overview on the Controlled Release Fertilizers 

      Sempeho, Siafu Ibahati; Kim, Hee Taik; Mubofu, Egid; Hilonga, Askwar (Hindawi Publishing Corporation Advances in Chemistry, 2014-08-28)
      Owing to the high demand for fertilizer formulations that will exhaust the possibilities of nutrient use efficiency (NUE), regulate fertilizer consumption, and lessen agrophysicochemical properties and environmental adverse ...

    • Encapsulated Urea-Kaolinite Nanocomposite for Controlled Release Fertilizer Formulations 

      Sempeho, Siafu Ibahati; Kim, Hee Taik; Mubofu, Egid; Pogrebnoi, Alexander; Shao, Godlisten; Hilonga, Askwar (Hindawi Publishing Corporation Journal of Chemistry, 2015)
      Urea controlled release fertilizer (CRF) was prepared via kaolinite intercalation followed by gum arabic encapsulation in an attempt to reduce its severe losses associated with dissolution, hydrolysis, and diffusion. ...
