Sustaina Bility Of Irrigation Schemes For Small-Scale Farmers: A Case Study Of Irrigation Scheme At Buleya Malima, Gwembe Valley, Zambia, Masinja R

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

A study to determine facrors influencing sustainability of smallholder irrigation schemes was carried our a! Buleya Malima, Southern Province, 7_nnzbia. These factors included technical and socio-economic factors. found Out that the technical factors were 26.5, 64.5 and 9.2 percent for application efficiency, tailwater ratio and deep percolation, respectively, indicating that farmers wasted water mainly through tailwater runoff.From socio-economic point of view, the study indicated that the scheme lacked (i) farmer participation in designing and planning operation of the scheme (ii) managerial ability and innovativeness to form their own viable organisation: and (iii) formal training in technical operations of irrigation, infrastructure …


Kiln Design And Fuel Wood Consumption In Fish Smoking, E Mushi Jun 1998

Kiln Design And Fuel Wood Consumption In Fish Smoking, E Mushi

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

In this paper. a load flow solution for the Medium Voltage (MY) three-phase radial distribution in delta-delta (A — A) connected network supplying different line topologies such as three phase, phase to phase and single-wire earth return (SWER) networks is presented. The general voltage related network equations are developed using Kirchhoff's voltage and current laws. Development ofa solution to the loadflow analysis applying the developed general voltage related network equations is proposed in order to evaluate the network voltage profile. Various numbers of arrays are developed for the identification of the network under study. The proposed method is a new …


Trends Of Microcomputer Technology In Developing Countries, With More Focus On Tanzanian Experiences: Achievements And Problems, Satoki Mahenge Jun 1998

Trends Of Microcomputer Technology In Developing Countries, With More Focus On Tanzanian Experiences: Achievements And Problems, Satoki Mahenge

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

Trends of microcomputer technology in developing countries, including Tanzanian. is like a 'mixed bag' of achievement and problems. Although rhe technology has been available for many years in developed world, developing countries are responding to it differently due to differences in political and economic policies. Some countries have acrimonious policies on the technology, some not. There are countries which utilize fully the technology in work places and others are still at dilemma on the importation of the technology due to what is 'claimed to be a weak economy in the presence Of many other pressing needs'. Other countries seem to …

Design Considerations For A Three-Phase Fluidized-Bed Bioreactor, S Manyele Jun 1998

Design Considerations For A Three-Phase Fluidized-Bed Bioreactor, S Manyele

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

The design Of a three-phase fluidized bed bioreactor using novel biomass support for industrial wastewater treatment is reported in this paper. A column of 0.20 m diameter with variable height up to 6.60 m equipped with a foam breaker tank was designed, commissioned and operated. A novel biomass support, KMTR support, has been used Separate gas and liquid feeding systems were designed to facilitate proper bioreactor operation. A flat distriburor plate with 4 mm holes- diameter was desined A study on the hydrodynamic properties of the three-phase fluidized bed bioreactor revealed high values of bed expansion and air hold-ups. Purification …


Development And Evaluation Of A New Soil Erosion- Productivity Index Model (Sepim), Metthew Mulengera Jun 1998

Development And Evaluation Of A New Soil Erosion- Productivity Index Model (Sepim), Metthew Mulengera

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

A soil erosion-productivity model which considers rhe effect of soil water storage Capacity. crop evapotranspiration, soil chemical and physical properties inrporrantfor Crop growth has been developed. The model is shown to give good predictions and it promises to be an improvement over the former productivity Index (PI). It also promises to give more reliable results than the currently used /nodels which consider only soil water storage capacity and crop e ' 'apotransp iration.


Use Of Dissolved Oxygen Concentration Probes In Biological Wastewater Treatment Plants, S Manyele Jun 1998

Use Of Dissolved Oxygen Concentration Probes In Biological Wastewater Treatment Plants, S Manyele

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

A study on use Of dissolved oxygen probes (DOP) for measurement Of oxygen concentration in warer and wastewater treatment is presented.

Community-Based Aids Prevention And Care In Africa: Results Of Four Action-Research Interventions In East And Southern Africa, Ann Leonard, Esther Muia Jan 1998

Community-Based Aids Prevention And Care In Africa: Results Of Four Action-Research Interventions In East And Southern Africa, Ann Leonard, Esther Muia

HIV and AIDS

The Community Counseling Aides (CCA) project operating with support from the National AIDS Control Programme (NACP) in Uganda, is a government initiative being carried out in collaboration with local communities. As the Ministry of Health seeks to develop local capacity to support and operate these efforts at the community level, it has identified the need to improve the skills of local project staff so that they may begin to assume the responsibility for monitoring and evaluating their own program performance. This is part of an overall strategy on the part of the Ugandan Government to decentralize control and allocation of …

Clinic-Based Family Planning And Reproductive Health Services In Africa: Findings From Situation Analysis Studies, Kate Miller, Robert A. Miller, Ian Askew, Marjorie C. Horn, Lewis Ndhlovu Jan 1998

Clinic-Based Family Planning And Reproductive Health Services In Africa: Findings From Situation Analysis Studies, Kate Miller, Robert A. Miller, Ian Askew, Marjorie C. Horn, Lewis Ndhlovu

Reproductive Health

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) supported publication of “Clinic-Based Family Planning and Reproductive Health Services in Africa: Findings from Situation Analysis Studies.” The book reflects USAID's commitment to improving quality of reproductive health (RH) care and expanding access for underserved groups. Nowhere are these efforts more important than in Africa, where use of family planning (FP) and other measures of RH status are lowest among the world’s regions. Providing high-quality health services that meet couples' reproductive needs is a socially just and humane goal in itself. Moreover, higher-quality services can be expected to result in better outcomes …


Liturgy And Ecumenism: What Next?, Eugene L. Brand Jan 1998

Liturgy And Ecumenism: What Next?, Eugene L. Brand

Institute of Liturgical Studies Occasional Papers

(Excerpt)

This year, 1998, marks the twentieth anniversary of the Lutheran Book of Worship (LBW) that we celebrate together with the fiftieth anniversary of the Institute of Liturgical Studies here at Valparaiso University. My personal debt to the institute goes back to 1956 when I persuaded my internship supervisor to allow me to attend the institute in Michigan. That meeting introduced me to some of the giants of the previous generation-Arthur Carl Piepkorn, Berthold von Schenk, AR. Kretzmann and M. Alfred Bichsel-and gave me a vision of what worship among Lutherans might be. Then, following my return from doctoral studies …

The Stories We Must Tell: Ugandan Children And The Atrocities Of The Lord's Resistance Army, Rosa Brooks Jan 1998

The Stories We Must Tell: Ugandan Children And The Atrocities Of The Lord's Resistance Army, Rosa Brooks

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

This essay is about stories--the stories that we are told and the stories that we, in turn, tell to others. It has become a truism that we have lost our faith in master narratives and that the "real" is composed of many competing narratives, all fragmentary, contradictory, overlapping. In this article, the author discusses the problems this view poses for those of us who see ourselves as advocates and activists rather than solely--or primarily--as scholars, but who nonetheless seek to combine social activism with intellectual rigor and honesty. In particular, she discusses the dilemmas this creates for the human rights …
