ABSTRACT
Abstract: The progress of a nation is a function of the level of the resourcefulness of the people which to a great extent, relates to the level of quality of the training and purposeful development of education in that nation. Such progress or development could only occur when an individual in the society is gainfully employed and per capital income is enhanced. This could only be possible when government educational policies are geared towards a functional education that can lead to job creation and also self-reliance. Entrepreneurship education is a means through which government could attain such development in the society. Therefore, this paper examined entrepreneurship education as the way forward to wealth creation and unemployment in Nigeria. Entrepreneurship education could help in wealth creation and graduates employment in Nigeria. Entrepreneurship education in Nigeria with effective implementation of the programme could help to overcome the challenge of unemployment.

ABSTRACT
Abstract: A functional industrial ammonia plant has been simulated using the plant data. All the unit operations, including definition and formation of reactions set have been performed in Aspen HYSYS V8.8. The simulated results compared with the plant data indicate reasonable agreement. The process optimization was performed using the optimization techniques such as BOX, Mixed and Sequential Quadratic Programming in Aspen HYSYSV8.8. The SQP, Mixed and BOX optimization algorithms gave optimum variables at quick convergence with reasonable iterative numbers. It was therefore deduced that the SQP, Mixed and BOX algorithms were more appropriate for the multi-step ammonia process. From the algorithms, the optimum operating conditions that increased the yield of ammonia production are 43.97oC, 4839kPa and 25670kg/hr for natural gas and 280.6oC 21490.0kPa for the ammonia production respectively given the percentage of ammonia to increase from 24.37 to 41.04 mole percent. The performance criterion which was Energy consumption was the objective function which was minimized in the reforming sections. The results showed that there was reduction of energy from 125.36Gcal/hr to 75.095Gcal/hr in the primary reformer and from 43.021Gcal/hr to 34.37Gcal/hr in the secondary reformer respectively. The effect of process parameters on the component performance was performed. It was observed that temperature, pressure and mass flow rate of the natural gas greatly influenced the yield of ammonia. Comparison of the plant, simulated and optimized results were done in terms of operating process parameters and compositions of sour gas, desulfurized gas and ammonia synthesis converter products.

ABSTRACT
Abstract: Kenyan’s economy is heavily dependent on agriculture which contributes greatly to gross domestic products (GDP). Nearly 80% of the country’s population resides in the rural areas and are engaged directly in agricultural activities which account for over 75% of the total agricultural output. In addition, the sector contributes to food security, employment opportunities and income generation as well as nutritional balance to the farming families. It is therefore enough to say, agriculture still remains the backbone of the country’s economy because of what it offers. Kenya has a huge potential of water resources including rivers, lakes and dams for the development of irrigation systems however, the country still continues to import food especially maize despite having ability to feed its own citizens. To solve the paradox of food insecurity, irrigation technologies need to in place. This paper therefore tries to compares the yields before and after the introduction of irrigation technologies in Kenya, precisely in Kimira-Oluch irrigation scheme using a paired t-test to determine whether there is statistically significant difference between productions level per unit area of selected crops (Maize, Rice and Kales) for participants of rainfed (before irrigation) and irrigated agriculture participants. From the results it was observed that, calculated value (observed) of t was found to be -0.5150 which was in the acceptance region and thus, we accept H0 and conclude that the difference in yields before irrigation (rainfed agriculture) and after irrigation (irrigated agriculture) is insignificance hence we can infer that irrigation technologies is not applied effectively in Kimira-Oluch thus resulting to a low yields. This is a clear indication that most of the factors of production such as irrigation waters and land are underutilized. The study will assist the policy makers and irrigation stakeholder to shift focus on innovations or technologies that.............

ABSTRACT
Abstract: The study was carried out in order to assess the perception of Farmers on Trees outside Forest (Trees on Agricultural Lands) in Gaya Local Government Area of Kano State. Stratified random sampling was used, the study area was partitioned in to eleven wards from which three wards were selected at random; selection of villages was done proportionally from the selected wards. One hundred and twenty (120) questionnaires were administered to farmers. Data collection was done through direct contact with farmers. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used in analyzing the data. Charts, frequency distribution and percentages were used to preset demographic information while chi-square test of association was used to check relationship between socio-economic characteristics and tree planting on farm lands. The results obtained on demography showed that, majority of the respondents fall between 48-58 years, about 91% are male and 9% are female, 94% are farmers and 92% are married. Chi-square result revealed no significant association between socio-economic characteristics finally, age and house hold size shows significant association with tree planting.

ABSTRACT
Abstract: The design models of isothermal batch and continuous stirred tank reactors are presented for bioremediation of crude oil in water environment. The reactor design equations were formulated based on conservation principle of mass and the reactor functional parameters simulated using MATLAB. The reactors were designed to treat crude oil at 95 to 99% degree of conversion with 79.5m3 volume of crude oil in water required to be treated daily. The results obtained showed that residence time for the batch reactor increased with increase in crude oil removed, which took approximately 2 hours. In addition, the heat generated per unit volume decreases with increase in residence time, which ranged from 6594 kJ/h.m3 to 6455 kJ/h.m3 at residence time of 1.904 to 1.984 hours and 95 to 99% crude oil removal. Similarly, the CTSR results showed that the volume and space time increased with increase in crude oil removed. The volume of CSTR ranged from 6.722 to 9.209m3, while space time ranged from 2.029 to 2.780 hours at 95 to 99% removal efficiency respectively. Conversely, the space velocity and heat generated per unit reactor volume decreased with increase in fractional conversion. The space velocity ranged from 0.493 to 0.36 h-1, while heat generated per unit reactor volume ranged from 1223 to 930.4kJ/hr.m3 at 95 to 99% removal efficiency respectively. Hence, the time required to remove one volume of crude oil fed into the reactor was higher in CSTR compared to the batch reactor, and at 79.5m3 of crude oil removal per day, the batch reactor will require 5 batches to complete the treatment. However, the heat generated per unit reactor volume was higher in batch reactor compared to the CSTR.

ABSTRACT
Abstract: Chengdu and Kunming are two spatially close cities located in West China. We argue that similar macro-regulative policies, close geographical, historical, and trade ties, may not only produce significant short-run dynamics but also lead to a long-term equilibrium between housing markets in neighboring cities. This paper aims to study the interactions between Chengdu and Kunming's new home markets. Data were monthly home price indices over the period from January 2006 to December 2015. We tested for unit root using the ADF, PP, and ERS-DF-GLS tests and the Perron test. We tested for cointegration by driving the Johansen trace test. Also, we tested for weak exogeneity and Granger causality and estimated ECMs. We found a long-run relationship between Chengdu and Kunming's new home markets. Bi-directional causal effects or a feedback effect between the two markets was indicated. The short-run (in four months) elasticity of home price in Kunming relative to that in Chengdu was about 0.27. The short-run (in two months) elasticity of home price in Chengdu relative to that in Kunming was about 0.37. The short-run dynamics may have facilitated the formation of the long-run relation. Across-city portfolios are difficult to gain. Shocks like the RMB Four Trillion Investment Plan initiating from 2009 may have changed home price trends.
