Pretreatment of CaO Catalyst for Transesterification of Croton Megalocarpus Oil - Anil Kumar; David Some; Kirimi Kiriamiti (JOURNAL OF SUSTAINABLE RESEARCH IN ENGINEERING, 2014)
Transesterification of oils to produce FAME has traditionally been carried out using homogeneous catalysts. However, the use of homogeneous catalysts without proper downstream processing can have serious environmental implications and attempts are being made to identify a suitable heterogeneous catalyst. Alkaline earth metal oxides have been studied as an alternative, and CaO is found to be the most suitable because of it is readily available and easy to handle. Study was made to see the effectiveness of CaO as a catalyst for FAME. It was found that CaO and NanoCaO contain a significant amount of hydroxide and carbonate leading to very poor activity. CaO was calcined to eliminate the hydroxide and carbonate. Calcination of CaO was carried out at 500, 700, 800 and 900oC, and the resulting samples analyzed through XRD. Results indicated that amounts of hydroxide and carbonate decreased as the calcination temperature was increased, and at calcination temperatures above 800oC sample consisted mostly of calcium oxide. Re-oxidized catalyst was obtained by hydrating CaO with water and thereafter calcining the calcium hydroxide to reconvert into oxide form. CaO, NanoCaO and Re-oxidized CaO were characterized through BET surface area, XRD, TEM, and basicity by Hammett indicator method. Transesterification of Croton Megalocarpus oil was carried out with methanol using a 9:1 methanol to oil molar ratio at 60oC for 3 hours using 2% catalyst. Product was analyzed for FAME by GC. Uncalcined catalyst gave a very low yield of 3 %. Yields for calcined catalysts ranged from 28 to 35%. Results indicate that pretreatment of CaO through calcination and re-oxidation increase the catalytic activity. It also shows that basicity of catalyst is a better indicator of activity as compared to BET surface area. Re-oxidized CaO catalyst with a lower BET surface area had a higher basicity, and a higher activity.

The description of syllable structure in the individual languages is important in realizing syllabic markedness which motivates re-syllabification in the recipient language. The paper therefore is an analysis of re-syllabification of Kipsigis and Tugen loan words borrowed from Kiswahili langauge. The paper also gives an overview of the syllable structure in Kipsigis and Tugen as the recepient languages and Kiswahili as the source language. Data analysis was guided by consonant vowel (C.V) phonological framework. The study found out that resyllabification is a morphophonological process during word formation in any given language. Keywords: Re-syllabification, Syllables, Loan words, Tugen, Kipsigis

Social and Economic Characteristics of Street Youth by Gender and Level of Street Involvement in Eldoret, Kenya - Sorber, Rebecca; Winston, Susanna; Koech, Julius; Ayuku, David; Hu, Liangyuan; Joseph Hogan; Braitstein, Paula (PLOS ONE, 2014)
Background Street-connected youth are a neglected and vulnerable population, particularly in resource-constrained settings. The development of interventions and supports for this population requires insight into how they live. This study describes the social and economic characteristics of a convenience sample of street youth (SY) in Eldoret, Kenya. Methods Participants were eligible if they were aged 12–21, living in Eldoret, spending days only (part-time), or nights and days on the street (full-time) and able and willing to consent or assent. Data were collected using a standardized interview conducted in English or Kiswahili. Binary dependent variables were having been arrested and/or jailed, and first priority for spending money (food vs. other). Nominal categorical dependent variables included major source of support, and major reason for being street-involved. Multivariable analysis used logistic regression models to examine the association of gender and level of street-involvement with social and economic factors of interest adjusting for age and length of time on the street. Data were analyzed using SAS 9.3. Results Of the 200 SY enrolled, 41% were female, mean age of 16.3 years; 71% were on the street full-time, and 29% part-time. Compared with part-time SY, full-time SY were more likely to have been arrested (Adjusted Odds Ratio [AOR]: 2.33, 95% Confidence Interval [95%CI]:1.01–5.35), name food as their first spending priority (AOR: 2.57, 95%CI:1.03–6.45), have left home due to violence (AOR: 5.54, 95%CI: 1.67–18.34), and more likely to report friends on the street as a major source of support (AOR: 3.59, 95% CI: 1.01–12.82). Compared with females, males were more likely to have ever been arrested (AOR: 2.66, 95%CI:1.14–6.18), and to have ever been jailed (AOR: 3.22, 95%CI:1.47–7.02). Conclusions These results suggest a high degree of heterogeneity and vulnerability among SY in this setting. There is an urgent need for interventions taking into consideration these characteristics.

Treatment of Tea Industry Wastewater Using a Combined Adsorption and Advanced Oxidation Process - Dennis Otieno; Anil Kumar; Onyango, Maurice; Ochieng Aoyi (Proceedings of Sustainable Research and Innovation Conference, 2014)
Tea, produced from the evergreen plant, Camellia Sinensis, is the most widely consumed beverage in the world after water. Although tea processing has now diversified into various speciality end products such as instant, white, oolong, iced, flavoured, and various blends, the most abundantly produced tea product in the world is fermented black tea. Black tea production is essentially a “dry” process, as no water is used at any of the production process steps. However liquid waste is generated due to the use of water for cleaning process equipment and factory premises. The waste exits the factory as coloured liquid effluent that must be treated before being discharged into rivers, lakes and other fresh water bodies. This paper presents findings of a study carried out to evaluate the performance of a combined adsorption and advanced oxidation process in removing colour from tea industry wastewater. The variables explored were the effects of sorbent mass, oxidant dosage, solution pH, agitation rate and temperature, on the decolouration of tea industry effluent. The results indicate that the combined adsorption and advanced oxidation is most effective at pH 3 wherein the effluent colour was reduced from 478 Pt-Co colour units to 8 Pt-Co colour units. The latter meets the NEMA recommended limit for discharge of colored effluents.

Background: Dyspepsia is one of the major indications for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Other indications include dysphagia, odynophagia and gastrointestinal bleeding. Endoscopy is an expensive procedure that is out of reach of many patients in resource constrained region such as western Kenya. We reviewed endoscopy records from both public and private health institutions spanning ten years. Objective: To determine the pattern of referral and endoscopy diagnoses in patients referred for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in Eldoret, Kenya. Design: Retrospective chart review. Setting: Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, private hospitals and private clinics in Eldoret, Kenya Subjects: One thousand six hundred and ninety (1690) Patients who underwent upper GI endoscopy from 1993 to 2003 were reviewed after obtaining clearances from the respective institutions. Information on age, sex, symptoms, and endoscopy diagnosis were extracted and subjected to statistical analysis. Results: The most common symptom was dyspepsia in 1059 (62.7%) followed by dysphagia in 224 (13.3%). Others were referred with diagnosis of cancer of the stomach or oesophagus. Common endoscopy diagnoses were cancer of the oesophagus in 199 (11.8%) and duodenal ulcer in 186 (11.0%). The majority of the patients (30.4%) had normal endoscopy findings. Of the 1059 patients with dyspepsia, only 154 (14.5%) had duodenal ulcer and 34 (3.2%) had gastric ulcers, the majority, 37.2% had normal endoscopy findings. Conclusion: Dyspepsia was main reason for referral, but the majority of such patients had normal findings. Cancer of the oesophagus was the main diagnosis in patients with dysphagia. In view of the cost of endoscopy, only those with dyspepsia and alarm symptoms be referred for the procedure.

Child abuse and neglect among orphaned children and youth living in extended families in sub-Saharan Africa: What have we learned from qualitative inquiry? - Gillian Morantz; Cole, Donald; Vreeman, Rachel; Ayaya, Samuel; Ayuku, David; Braitstein, Paula (Vulnerable Children and Youth Studies, 2013)
Researchers and aid organizations have reported that orphans in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are particularly vulnerable to abuse and neglect. This article is a review of qualitative studies that address experiences of maltreatment among orphaned children and youth living in extended families in SSA. It aims to inform policy and programming by providing a better understanding of the types of maltreatment encountered and the perceived risk factors. A literature search was carried out using Google, PubMed, Scholars Portal Search and Scopus. Searches of relevant bibliographies and publications of authors were also undertaken. Studies from peer-reviewed journals and the grey literature were reviewed for relevance and quality. Eligible studies had to include orphans living with extended family in SSA as participants, explore their maltreatment experiences and employ a sound qualitative methodology. Findings were coded, extracted, compared and synthesized. Twenty articles, representing 15 studies, were selected. These studies, from diverse SSAn countries, reported similar forms of maltreatment among orphaned children and youth: experiences of intra-household discrimination; material and educational neglect; excessive child labour; exploitation by family members and psychological, sexual and physical abuse. The perceived risk factors were poverty, living with a non-biological caregiver, stigma and alcohol abuse. The findings of the included studies suggest that awareness, prevention and intervention initiatives aimed to curb child abuse and neglect within communities in SSA are needed and should be coupled with efforts to promote education and reduce poverty and stigma.

Determinants of customer loyalty in Kenya: does corporate image play a moderating role? - Daniel Kipkirong Tarus; Nicholas Rabach (The TQM Journal, 2013)
Purpose – Although previous studies have attempted to explain why some customers remain loyal to a product or service provider and/or why others switch, few studies have interrogated the role of social pressure as well as the moderating role of corporate image. Methodology – The paper uses a composite measure of customer loyalty which provides both behavioral aspects and attitudinal loyalty. Survey data derived from a sample of 140 users of mobile services in Kenya was used and the hypotheses was tested using moderated regression analysis. Findings – The results indicate that perceived service value, service quality and social pressure were significant predictors of customer loyalty, while customer satisfaction was not significant. Corporate image was found to moderate the relationship between service value, service quality, social pressure and customer loyalty. Research limitations – Even though the study utilized a sample similar to other existing studies, future research should use larger samples, different measures of variables and different contexts. Implications – To improve on customer loyalty, mobile telecommunication firms in Kenya should place more emphasis on the value offered to customers as well as the needs of the social units like family, friends and colleagues. Moreover, telecommunication firms should invest in good corporate image in order to realize the benefits of customer loyalty. Originality/value – The study adds value to the understanding of the determinants of customer loyalty. More importantly, social pressure is an important determinant of customer loyalty. Second, corporate image plays a moderating role in customer behavior. Thus firms eager to engender customer loyalty should invest in corporate image.

The epidemiology of substance use among street children in resource-constrained settings: a systematic review and meta-analysis - Embleton, Lonnie; ann Mwangi; Vreeman, Rachel; Ayuku, David; Braitstein, Paula (Addiction, 2013)
Abstract Aims To compile and analyze critically the literature published on street children and substance use in resource-constrained settings. Methods We searched the literature systematically and used meta-analytical procedures to synthesize literature that met the review's inclusion criteria. Pooled-prevalence estimates and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using the random-effects model for life-time substance use by geographical region as well as by type of substance used. Results Fifty studies from 22 countries were included into the review. Meta-analysis of combined life-time substance use from 27 studies yielded an overall drug use pooled-prevalence estimate of 60% (95% CI = 51–69%). Studies from 14 countries contributed to an overall pooled prevalence for street children's reported inhalant use of 47% (95% CI = 36–58%). This review reveals significant gaps in the literature, including a dearth of data on physical and mental health outcomes, HIV and mortality in association with street children's substance use. Conclusions Street children from resource-constrained settings reported high life-time substance use. Inhalants are the predominant substances used, followed by tobacco, alcohol and marijuana.
