Forest Management Optimization Scenarios For Climatic And Economic Benefits Generated From Tectona Grandis Plantation In Muheza, Tanzania, Omari S. Mgoo, Beatus J. Temu, Japhet N. Mwambusi, Shabani A. O. Chamshama

Tanzania Journal of Science

Globally, multiple ecosystem services are increasingly becoming an important agenda in sustainable forest management. However, it is still unclear which forest management practices would lead to an optimal bundle of ecosystem services promoting sustainability. This study aimed to determine whether implementing thinning schedule and 30 years rotation age has implications on the provision of ecosystem services and economic benefits of Teak stands in Tanzania. Carbon quantification and cost-benefit analysis methods were used to study the climatic and economic benefits of wood production and carbon sequestration under five scenarios where three thinning schedules and 30 years rotation age were the baseline. …

Evaluation Of Therapeutic Efficacy Of Aloe Rabaiensis Leaf Against Salmonella Gallinarum Challenged In Kuroiler Chicks In Arusha, Tanzania, Mwanaisha S. Mkangara Sep 2024

Evaluation Of Therapeutic Efficacy Of Aloe Rabaiensis Leaf Against Salmonella Gallinarum Challenged In Kuroiler Chicks In Arusha, Tanzania, Mwanaisha S. Mkangara

Tanzania Journal of Science

Salmonella gallinarum, a bacterium causing fowl typhoid in gallinaceous birds, poses significant economic challenges to the chicken industry in Tanzania. This study investigated the potential of Aloe rabaiensis in managing S. gallinarum in Kuroiler chicks. The clinical signs, viable cell count, live weight, heterophils, lymphocytes, and monocyte counts were evaluated using ninety-four chicks grouped into T1, T2, T3 (challenged with S. gallinarum), and T4 (unchallenged with S. gallinarum). The findings revealed no statistically significant differences between the treated and control groups (P > 0.05) in viable cell count, live weight, mortality rate, heterophils, lymphocytes, and monocyte counts. However, there were clinical …

Zambia Social Science Journal

Wildlife in Zambia’s Luangwa Valley has fascinated tourists from the pre-colonial era to date. Writings on the prolific beauty of the region describe the abundance of species and beautiful scenery of the valley. The late President Dr. Kenneth Kaunda declared South Luangwa a National Park in 1971. He further facilitated the Luangwa Integrated Rural Development Project (LIRDP) funded by the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD) to support the management of the Park and engage local communities in conservation efforts and livelihood development. The South Luangwa National Park and adjacent Game Management Areas were Dr. Kaunda’s preferred destination for work …

Analysis Of The Factors Affecting The Oil Recovery From Oilseeds In A Multistage Crosscurrent Leaching Process, Samuel V. Manyele

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

The analysis of the total oil recovery from oilseeds in a multi-stage crosscurrent leaching process is presented. The model created using mass balance equations for three stages was used to analyze the factors affecting total oil recovery, To. The key performance factors (raw meal feed flow rate, solvent feed flow rate in each stage, solvent distribution factor for each stage, percent oil in the raw meal (Poil), solids to solution ratio in the underflow (N), solvent to solids ratio (SSR), solvent to oil ratio (SOR) and wash ratio (WR) were varied while assessing To. While SSRi and SORi ranged from …


Data Communication Over Power-Lines: A Review On Technical, And Applications Challenges, Abdi Abdalla Aug 2024

Data Communication Over Power-Lines: A Review On Technical, And Applications Challenges, Abdi Abdalla

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

This paper presents a review study on the data communication over power-lines, commonly referred to as power-line carrier, power-line communication (PLC), mains communications, or power-line digital subscriber line (PDSL). This study examines the technical and application advantages and challenges associated with adopting PLC as a preferred alternative technology for wideband or broadband data communication. The broader coverage area of the PLC network gives it a distinct advantage over other communication network technologies. Additionally, implementing a communication system using the existing power-line network is more cost-effective and less time-consuming compared to constructing a new network from scratch. However, the primary challenge …


Development And Testing Of Small-Scale Flash Dryer For Maize Bran, Eden Ngowi Aug 2024

Development And Testing Of Small-Scale Flash Dryer For Maize Bran, Eden Ngowi

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

Sun drying is the most common technique used to dry various food products due to its economic convenience. However, it is not effective owing to its unreliable nature leading to microbial deterioration and aflatoxin contamination of food. In Tanzania, about 1.3 million tonnes of maize bran are at risk of deterioration annually due to improper drying. The aim of this study was to design, fabricate and test an efficient small-scale flash dryer for maize bran. Using principles of material and energy balance, a small-scale flash dryer with a throughput of 500 kg of dry product per hour was designed resulting …

The Effects Of Corporate Culture On Firm Growth: Evidence From Tanzania’S Construction Firms, Fred P. Okangi

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

Corporate culture is one of those important aspects that determine the growth of firms. This study investigates the effects of the different types of corporate culture on the growth of Tanzania’s local construction firms. A survey of 227 Tanzania’s construction firms was undertaken using semi-structured questionnaire. The data collected were quantitatively analysed using Stata 13.0 software. The study results indicate that only the hierarchy type of corporate culture positively and significantly impacts the growth of Tanzania’s construction firms. The other types of corporate culture, such as adhocracy, market, and clan had insignificant effects on the growth of the construction firms …


Exploring The Transformation Of Sustainable Collective Spaces: A Study From Mlalakuwa Informal Settlement, Jacob Lutta Aug 2024

Exploring The Transformation Of Sustainable Collective Spaces: A Study From Mlalakuwa Informal Settlement, Jacob Lutta

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

A major challenge in collective space transformation is addressing the complexity of informal urbanisation in developing countries. Using a case study approach, this paper examines the concerns related to a particular informal settlement's sustainable collective space transformation. One of the key findings is that the absence of formal rules and regulations in the development of informal settlements in combination with land-grabbing leads to the absence of open spaces that could be used collectively. It is observed that sustainability in urban development is another body of critical thought that integrates several streams of current urban elements and embodies various conceptions of …
