“…However, danger looms as several studies conducted on groundwater quality in gold mining communities in Ghana have reported substantial levels of arsenic often exceeding the 10 µg/L permitted by the WHO [5] [6]. Arsenic in drinking water has been reported to cause human diverse health problems, including cancer, skin thickening and discolouration, high blood pressure, heart diseases, nerve effects like numbness and pain, interference with important cell functions, gastrointestinal disorders, diarrhea, stomatitis, tremor, hemoglobinuria, ataxia, paralysis, depression, pneumonia, among others [5] [7] [8]. Although technologies such as lime precipitation, oxidation, coagulation filtration, ion exchange and reverse osmosis have been developed and refined to remove arsenic from water, such technologies are expensive and the poverty-stricken mining communities cannot afford them.…”

This study investigated Bacillus subtilis ATCC13952 as an adsorbent for arsenic in groundwater. Batch experiments were used to determine the effect of contact time, adsorbent dose, arsenic (III) concentration, pH, and temperature on the process. The percentage of arsenic (III) removed was high at a contact time of four days, 3.0 mL of Bacillus subtilis ATCC13952, pH 8 and temperature of 35˚C. The kinetics of the process showed the Elovich kinetics model as the best fit for the process. This indicates that arsenic removal was by chemisorption. The analysis of the nonlinear equilibrium isotherms and the error functions showed the Langmuir isotherm as best fit for the process. Mechanistic study of the process indicated bulk diffusion to be the ratedetermining step. Thermodynamically, the process was favourable, spontaneous and feasible. When the community water samples were treated with the Bacillus subtilis ATCC13952 at the optimum contact time, adsorbent dose, pH and temperature, 99.96% -99.97% of arsenic was removed across all sampling points within the studied communities. Hence, the results show that How to cite this paper:

Technologies that could allow literally billions of everyday objects to communicate with each other over the internet have enormous potential to change all our lives. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a transformative development, these technologies are a way of boosting productivity, keeping us healthier, making transport more efficient, reducing energy needs and making our homes more comfortable. In recent years, Internet of Things (IoT) and Internet of Nanothings (IoNT) have drawn significant research attention in numerous fields such as Healthcare, Defence, Environmental monitoring, Food and water quality control etc., There are various transformations such as Smart cities, Smart homes, Smart factories, Smart transportation, due to IoT and IoNT. Health care delivery requires the support of new technologies like IoT, IoNT to fight and look against the new pandemic diseases. For the past two years COVID-19 spreaded over worldwide including India, are fighting with pandemic disease and still looking for a practical and cost-effective solution to face the problems arising in several ways. To minimize the person to person, contact and to maintain social distancing various technologies are utilized, among them IoT and IoNT play a major role in healthcare system and allied fields. This review mainly discuss about the IoT, IoNT, its components and various applications in healthcare and allied fields.

“…Indirectly nanoparticles can stabilize against coagulation or aggregation by conserving particle charge and by modifying the outmost layer of the particle (Hong 2019). Nanoparticles have been in use in a wide range of technologies, including adhesion, lubrication, stabilization, and controlled flocculation of colloidal dispersions (Raghu, Parkunan, & Kumar 2020).…”

This book is an outcome from an international conference by the Africa Centre of Excellence in Phytochemicals, Textile and Renewable Energy (ACEII-PTRE); a World Bank funded project under the auspices of the Africa Centers of Excellence (ACE II) that seeks to contribute to addressing critical gaps in technical, scientific and research skills. The ACEII-PTRE aims at providing high quality training and research in the Eastern and Southern African region in Phytochemicals, Textile and Renewable energy. It seeks to build regional specialization by concentrating on postgraduate students and faculty, generating knowledge, developing skills to support industry and private sector demand, and to generate research for the betterment of the community and the region at large.Our aim in writing this book is to prepare a text which is comprehensive and a stimulating discourse on research for sustainable industrial growth. The context of the book is situated on the premise that the economic growth and industrial investments have boosted demand for greater technological skills and applied research in some of the priority economic sectors like Manufacturing, Agriculture, Energy, Health and others in many developing economies. Prior to Covid-19, many regions of the world experienced remarkable economic growth especially in the last decade. Outstanding skills and continuous vigorous research are therefore needed, particularly in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) so as to sustain the economic growth and transformation. However, there is a new global paradigm shift that seeks to consider STEAM instead of STEM -by adding the 'Arts' to the STEM since Arts play an important role in areas related to STEM. Notwithstanding, ethics in research is also a key area of focus in STEAM.The theme of the book: "Advancing Science, Technology and Innovation for Industrial Growth" and the thematic areas of Phytochemistry, Progressive Textiles, Transformative Industrialization, Renewable and Alternative Energy are relevant in realizing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which is a universal call of action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure people enjoy peace and prosperity by the year 2030. A better world requires an interdisciplinary approach, hence the incorporation of social science perspectives rendering this book a high-level academic discourse with cross-cutting disciplines.Advancing research and well-integrated national development strategies can help raise productivity, improve industrial competitiveness, support faster growth, create jobs and promote resilient communities. Therefore, leveraging on the research arena to advance industrial growth is a central goal of this book. The book captures various knowledge creation and development aspects through the presentation of case specific, basic and applied research and innovation from the perspective of multiple contributors. The text is presented in 42 short chapters which are organized in three sections. Section 1 of the book focuses on advances in Science, T...
