  • Vibration interpretation technique for water leak detection in small diameter pipelines 
    Moni, Nayna Ann (Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST), 2020-11)
    Context: Clean drinking water is a very scarce and precious resource, a basic need for life, and requires proper management. Inconspicuous water leaks over a long period of time contribute to the loss of potable water. It ...
  • Visualizing the invisible: class excursions to ignite children’s enthusiasm for microbes 
    McGenity, Terry J; Gessesse, Amare; Hallsworth, John E; Cela, Esther Garcia; Verheecke-Vaessen, Carol; Wang, Fengping; Chavarrıa, Max; Haggblom, Max M; Molin, Søren; Danchin, Antoine; Smid, Eddy J; Lood, Cedric; Cockell, Charles S; Whitby, Corinne; Liu, Shuang-Jiang; Keller, Nancy P; Stein, Lisa Y; Bordenstein, Seth R; Lal, Rup; Nunes, Olga C; Gram, Lone; Singh, Brajesh K; Webster, Nicole S; Morris, Cindy; Sivinski, Sharon; Bindschedler, Saskia; Junier, Pilar; Antunes, Andre; Baxter, Bonnie K; Scavone, Paola; Timmis, Kenneth (John Wiley & Sons Ltd and Society for Applied Microbiolog, 2020-05-14)
    We have recently argued that, because microbes have pervasive – often vital – influences on our lives, and that therefore their roles must be taken into account in many of the decisions we face, soci ety must become ...
  • A voltage multiplier using timer circuit 
    Zungeru, Adamu Murtala; Chuma, Joseph; Mangwala, Mmoloki; Khao, Baba (Medwell Journals, 2018-01)
    This study describes a DC to DC voltage multiplier using the 555 Integrated Circuit (IC) timer in an astable state. The major motivation of the design is to be able to produce an inexpensive and light form of generating ...
  • Waste management and treatment of copper slag BCL, Selebi Phikwe Botswana: review 
    Gabasiane, Tlotlo; Bhero, Shepherd; Danha, Gwiranai (Elsevier B.V., 2019)
    The production of copper bears both viable product and by product know as slag which is a challenge to dispose and poses a problem to the environment. BCL holds copper slag is seen as waste which is iron - opulent containing ...
  • Waste valorisation opportunities for bush encroacher biomass in savannah ecosystems: a comparative case analysis of Botswana and Namibia 
    Charis, Gratitude; Danha, Gwiranai; Muzenda, Edison (Elsevier B.V., 2019-08)
    Bush encroachment of savannah ecosystems in countries like Botswana and Namibia has been identified as a major problem threatening biodiversity, grazing land productivity and the generation of groundwater. Incidentally, ...
  • Water quality Index of waste stabilisation ponds and downstream of discharge point 
    Gopolang, Obenne Pearl; Letshwenyo, Moatlhodi Wise (Scientific Research Publishing Inc., 2019-08)
    Water quality index has been used in various researches for the assessment of water quality for various uses and discharges into the environment. The purpose of this study was to determine the water quality index of the ...
  • The water retention properties of biochar derived from broiler poultry litter as applied to the Botswana soil 
    Shomana, Thapelo; Botha, Daniel Erich; Agachi, Paul Serban (Dama Research Center limited, 2020-05-14)
    Crop farming in Botswana is very modest and of high risk compared to its neighboring countries because of significant dependency on reduced and unreliable rainfall and as a result of soils with poor water holding capacity ...
  • Working towards knowledge accessibility and visibility through collaboration efforts: the case of Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) library 
    Lebele, Ayanda Agnes; Ntlotlang, Tuelo (Botswana International University of Science and Technology ( BIUST), 2020-06-02)
    Botswana is currently transforming from a natural resource to a knowledge based economy. Therefore, Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) is working towards positioning itself to respond to ...
  • Zinc oxide nanowire field effect transistor used as a pH sensor 
    Ditshego, Nonofo M.J. (International Journal of Electrical and Electronic Engineering & Telecommunications, 2022-03)
