Modelling of a sustainable refugee camp drainage system for stormwater management (2019)
Journal Article
Ajibade, O. O., Tota-Maharaj, K., Hills, C. D., & MacLeod, C. (2019). Modelling of a sustainable refugee camp drainage system for stormwater management. Environmental Science: Water Research & Technology, 5(12), 2150-2161. https://doi.org/10.1039/C9EW00350A

© 2019 The Royal Society of Chemistry. A novel decentralised Sustainable Refugee Camp Drainage System (SRCDS) has been developed for the effective management of stormwater in the Dadaab refugee camp, Kenya. The SRCDS uses the principle of Best Manage... Read More about Modelling of a sustainable refugee camp drainage system for stormwater management.

Effect of thermodynamic parameters on the concentration of pollutants in produced water from crude oil production (2019)
Journal Article
Tota-Maharaj, K., & Ngene, S. (2019). Effect of thermodynamic parameters on the concentration of pollutants in produced water from crude oil production. Journal of Energy Research and Reviews, 3(3), 1-13. https://doi.org/10.9734/jenrr/2019/v3i330101

Thermodynamic parameters such as temperature and pressure of petroleum reservoirs are among the most important physical characteristics which are required to effectively produce crude oil from the reservoirs. Oil and gas reservoir pressures determine... Read More about Effect of thermodynamic parameters on the concentration of pollutants in produced water from crude oil production.

Assessment of the physical characteristics and stormwater effluent quality of permeable pavement systems containing recycled materials (2019)
Journal Article

Effect of carbon-negative aggregates on the strength properties of concrete for permeable pavements (2019)
Journal Article
Monrose, J., Tota-Maharaj, K., Mwasha, A., & Hills, C. (2020). Effect of carbon-negative aggregates on the strength properties of concrete for permeable pavements. International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 21(14), 1823-1831. https://doi.org/10.1080/10298436.2019.1567924

Permeable pavements are engineered to temporarily store water to reduce flooding during rainfall events. Permeable pavements are distinguished primarily based on their surface materials which can vary from concrete, asphalt, clay brick, concrete pave...
