Evaluation of the quality of sachet water vended in the New Juaben municipality of Ghana

Ahimah J. K.; Ofosu S. A (International Journal of Water Resources and Environmental Engineering, 2012-03-26)

Access to good quality water has been a challenge to humans due to the pollution of the limited water resources around. Over one billion people do not have access to a safe source of drinking water. This phenomenon is ...
Impact of Catch Can Height on Evaporation and Drift Losses Using Dynamic Fluidic Sprinkler

Zhu, Xingye; Fordjour, Alexander; Dwomoh, Frank Agyen; Lewballah, Joseph Kwame; Ofosu, Samuel Anim; Liu, Junping (2013)

Sprinkler irrigation is one of the four basic methods of irrigation. In case of surface irrigation, losses occur due to seepage and percolation but in sprinkler irrigation, loss occurs only by evaporation. The purpose ...
Assessing the Strength of Lightweight Concrete using Oil Palm Shells (OPS) as Coarse Aggregates

Adamtey, Simon Asinor; Anim, Samuel Ofosu (International Journal of Technology and Management Research, 2014)

The usage of concrete spans the length of civilization and in modern day construction environment, concrete remains one of its major materials. As a result of high cost of construction and construction materials especially ...
Effects of Land Cover Changes on Ecosystem Services in the Kulpawn Catchment of the White Volta River Basin of Ghana.

Zakari, O; Gyamfi, C; Ofosu, S. A; Boakye, E; Apafo, S.T; Anornu, G.K; Baatuuwie, B.N (2014)

The Kulpawn River Basin has experienced a significant decline in vegetation cover due to land use and land cover changes between 1995 - 2023, affecting hydrological flows and ecosystem services. This study evaluated ...
Spatio-Temporal Analysis of the Pattern of Land Cover Changes among the Sub-Basins in the White Volta Basin.

Zakari, O; Gyamfi, C; Boakye, E; Ofosu, S.A; Baatuuwie, B.N (2016)

The White Volta Basin has witnessed a declining trend of vegetative cover due to high anthropogenic activities which have impaired the ability of the river basin to provide essential ecosystem services and livelihood ...
Solid Waste Management Practices in a Regional, District and Private Hospital in Ghana

S. A. Ofosu; S. Wiafe (AFRICA DEVELOPMENT AND RESOURCES RESEARCH INSTITUTE (ADRRI) JOURNAL, 2016-03)

Management of hospital wastes is a public health concern due to the potential health risks associated with such wastes. Yet, available and relevant information from most developing countries indicate that hospital ...
Using Geospatial Information Component to Monitor the Watersheds along the Densu Basin in Ghana

Nyamekye, Clement; Nyame, Faruk Kwansah; Ofosu, Samuel Anim (Scientific Research Publishing, 2016-10-31)

The Densu basin is a coastal river catchment in southern Ghana and a typical rural community like all other rural settlements in Ghana. It is the only basin amongst 43 other basins of the country that supplies water ...
Evaluating the Stability of Indigenous Akwadum Soil with Cassava Peel Ash and Quarry Dust

Nyamekye, Clement; Ofosu, Samuel Anim; Fordjour, Alexander; Adjin, Theophilus Ayitey (Scientific Research Publishing, 2016-12-08)

Cassava peels are produced as a waste from cassava, which are disposed into landfills. These become an environmental problem; therefore the use of cassava peel ash (CPA) as a soil stabilizer must be encouraged. This ...
Ecological vulnerability of the Densu river Basin due to land use change and climate variability

Ofosu, Samuel Anim; Adjei, Kwaku A; Odai, Samuel Nii (2020-03-10)

Ecological hazards such as floods, drought and poor water quality remain notable disparaging natural catastrophes of climate variability in West Africa. Associated hazard manifestation is an amalgamation of various ...
Hydraulic performance assessment on dynamic fluidic and complete fluidic sprinklers under indoor and outdoor conditions

Zhu, Xingye; Kong, Jing; Fordjour, Alexander; Lewballah, Joseph Kwame; Dwomoh, Frank Agyen; Ofosu, Samuel Anim; Liu, Junping (Journal of Agricultural Engineering, 2023-10-27)

Since complete fluidic sprinklers (CFS) cannot function well in low-pressure environments, dynamic fluidic sprinklers (DFS) were developed to address this issue. In 2021, research in the field and laboratory were ...
