The effect of physico-chemical parameters on speciation of trace metals insediments from inland and coastal waters of Ghana
The speciation of cadmium, lead, copper, zinc, manganese and iron into exchangeable, carbonate, reducible and organic bound fractions was studied in sediments from coastal and freshwater environments in Ghana. This was relevant as the species in which metals are stored within specific sediment components is important in determining their impact on the environment -
Effects of Fish Cage Culture on Water and Sediment Quality in the Gorge Area of Lake Volta in Ghana A Case Study of Lee Fish Cage Farm
The study determined the impacts of fish cage farming on the gorge area of Lake Volta. Water and sediment samples were collected from six sites in the Lee Cage Farm; four from sections with cages and two from about 1300 m upstream of the farm which served as the control. -
E-waste recycling in Africa: risks and opportunities
Electronic waste (e-waste) is generated in enormous amounts worldwide, and this has become a global environmental issue because of the way it is handled, especially in developing countries. -

Simulation of climate characteristics and extremes of the Volta Basin using CCLM and RCA regional climate models
The extent to which statistical bias-adjusted outputs of two regional climate models alter the projected change signals for the mean (and extreme) rainfall and temperature over the Volta Basin is evaluated -
Photoelectrochemical degradation of methylene blue dye under visible light irradiation using EG/Ag-ZrO2 nanocomposite electrodes
The present study reports the application of three electrodes, consisting of exfoliated graphite (EG), EG and zirconium oxide (EG-ZrO2), and EG and silver-doped zirconium oxide (EG/Ag-ZrO2) in a comparative photoelectrochemical degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye in water under visible light irradiation. -
Elimination within reach: A cross-sectional study highlighting the factors that contribute to persistent lymphatic filariasis in eight communities in rural Ghana
Background Despite the progress achieved in scaling-up mass drug administration (MDA) for lymphatic filariasis (LF) in Ghana, communities with persistent LF still exist even after 10 years of community treatment. -
Assessment of groundwater quality and the main controls on its hydrochemistry in some Voltaian and basement aquifers, northern Ghana
Groundwater resources play the single most important role in the delivery of potable water to rural communities in northern Ghana, especially during the long dry season and where surface water sources are polluted or nonexistent.
