Hamilah11:
Good evening. Please I applied for a masters application in EMU since august and it showed that it has been approved by both the registrar and IGSR. I was sent an email recently congratulating me on the admission and details on accommodation but I haven't been received any admission letter. I checked my portal but it wasn't there. What do I do please?

Contact the registrar office of EMU....your letter will be issued

Usmanilola:
Please I need attention here.
I want to choose between studying in Cyprus or Ukraine. Which of the two destination is a better place to study and work and then probably travel to Germany or USA after schooling

Would really appreciate the help

If your aim is to go either to Germany or the USA, then kindly apply directly to either of these countries for study and work rather than going to Ukrain/Cyprus first.

Irrespective of the countries you choose to study, ensure you have finances that will cover almost 2-3 years of your entire study, living expenses and other costs ready before you start your journey.

The question you should ask yourself is, do you really want to go for studies, acquire real practical experience, build competitive skills and good CV? or you just want to go abroad to work? If your answer is really education, then do a google search on the subject/program, find universities in the countries of your choice, check universities rating, possible skills you will gain, how their alumni are doing and cost of the study and living expenses. If you plan working while studying, then after identifying the university, kindly speak with the University international office or find current/past student regarding the possibilities of studying and working, rules and opportunities therein. Ensure you are financially capable to support yourself without work, work should be just for little support because of studying time may not permit.

Note: I have studied in 3 developed countries, visited over 75 countries and I know that no matter how developed the country is, you must have the financial backing for your education. Jobs are scarce these days and can also affect your studies.


Regarding Cyprus and Ukraine: Jobs are scarce in both countries, students must have adequate funding to study as available jobs only cover basic expenses.

Best wishes in your decision.

My First Scientific Publication in 2020

Research Summary: Pollution from industries using dyes is increasing at an alarming rate. Azo dyes represent ~68% of dyestuff production globally and are the most widely synthetic colourant released into the environment from textile, leather, printing, cosmetic and paper industries. Azo dyes contain one or more azo linkages in their structure, generally persistent, stable to light, refractory to both anaerobic and aerobic digestions and bio-resistant in the water bodies. Their presence of even trace concentration in the water not only distorts the transparency and aesthetic aspects of the water, but it also presents hazardous effects. We focussed on utilizing sunlight responsive 2D layered double hydroxides as a catalyst to efficiently degrade the dyes from effluents from dye-polluting industries.

Results: Under sunlight or simulated light source our catalyst is able to degrade nearly 99% of the dyes within 10-20 mg/L of 100 L polluting water and without light can efficiently degrade the dye by 70% within 40 min of treatment. This will be useful as a low-cost solution for small scale industries.

Researcher and scope: Prof. WIP and My Post-Doctoral Student in Canada. Lab grade and industrial-grade 2D LDH was prepared and efficiently used for industrial dye-contaminated wastewaters.

Publication: Results have been presented at the 2nd International Conference on Water Problems in the Mediterranean Countries and now published in the Journal of Desalination and Water Treatment.

Research Lab: Material is designed in the Polymeric Materials Research LAB of Eastern Mediterranean University

doggedemmy:
Thank you very much for taking your time to school me on this. I'll do as you advised. But please allow me relate my findings with you.

You can always relate your findings, challenges and request for suggestions and comments regarding your research here.

Am sure you can do a good research work!
I will try my very best to respond as time permits!

doggedemmy:
Good evening @prof wip7.
I am writing a research proposal on the topic: REMOVAL OF PETROLEUM SPILL IN WATER USING ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY MODIFIED CHITOSAN BEADS.

Good idea. You can do that and switch the topic/title to SYNTHESIS OF ECO-FRIENDLY CHITOSAN-BASED HYDROPHOBIC SPONGE FOR TREATMENT OF OILY WATER

First, to design any material for whatsoever application you must have very good knowledge of the intended use. For instance, you need to do more literature and extensive reading on the characteristic of oily wastewater, composition and characterization. Oily wastewater could mean restaurant oily wastewater, produced oily wastewater, soya-bean oil, maybe lubricants, heavy hydrocarbons such as grease, crude oils, and diesel oils, and also light hydrocarbons such as gasoline, jet fuel and kerosene.

At a master level, you can just test for soya-bean oil, diesel oil on an individual basis and also as a mixture. This level will help you understand some of the mechanisms and what can be improved and many other things.

I saw a research work in which chitosan was grafted with polyethyleneimine and crosslinked with glutaraldehyde to improve its adsorption capacity and mechanical strength. It was then used to remove Amaranth Red dye as a model pollutant, from an aqueous solution.

As I mentioned above, each adsorbate (pollutant) must be understood first before designing an adsorbent (material to remove them). Dye chemistry is different from oil chemistry. Oils are non-polar in nature while the molecules making up the dye are most likely polar containing chromophore and auxochrome. So, since oils are non-polar then you will need to tailor your adsorbent to be hydrophobic in nature so as to retain the oil and allow it to be separated from the water.

So; you can use chitosan or wood (cellulose) shavings as the based material and look for any material that will make the chitosan/wood (cellulose) hydrophobic. However, the presence of reactive hydroxyl and amino groups along the chitosan chain offers the possibility for chemical modifications and production of highly hydrophobic derivatives. Also, instead of preparing beads is better to prepare sponge or aerogel.

Aerogels are porous ultralight materials obtained from a gel, in which the liquid component for the gel was replaced with a gas, resulting in a solid with extremely low density. This will be more practical for oil remediation.

I am thinking of following this research path. But here are my worries:
1. I am just a Masters student. Do you think the project work would be"too big" to embark on?

No, you can finish it within just 2-12 months depending on the availability of raw materials and equipment for analysis/characterization.

2. The adsorption study technique used in the research was kinetic adsorption experiment to determine equilibrium time and adsorption isotherm experiment using a spectrophotometer. I have seen other studies where Fourier transform IR spectroscopy was used. My technique is supposed to be "low-cost". Are these procedures not expensive? Can you recommend cheaper ones?

All you stated here are very mixed-up and wrong. Please first download sets of papers on sciencedirect.com to read about adsorption technology. In a brief explanation:

Name of treatment technique you want to use is called Adsorption, it has either batch or fixed-bed column as types of adsorption. Adsorption contains adsorbent (the material that will remove the oil) and adsorbate (the oil or pollutant).

1. So the first step is to synthesize the adsorbent since you already know your adsorbate.

2. After the adsorbent is fabricated/synthesized/manufactured: The character of the adsorbent must be checked to ensure it fits the target application. So you will need to characterize the adsorbent using various techniques such as FTIR (Fourier transform Infra-Red Spectroscopy, to check presence of functional groups on the adsorbent, SEM (to check the morphology of the adsorbent), BET (to check the surface area/porosity of the adsorbent), TGA (To check the thermal stability), XRD/EDX (to check the crystallinity/elemental component) etc. After you are satisfied then, you perform adsorption technique using either the batch or fixed-bed system.

3. During adsorption, there are various factors that affect adsorption efficiencies such as treatment time or contact time of adsorbent with adsorbate, pH of the adsorbate, concentration of adsorbate, dosage of adsorbent, treatment temperature, presence of competing species in the solution etc, So a researcher or manufacturer must check each of these effects to help them design effective and high-performance adsorbent tailored for the treatment of the target pollutant.

4. To understand the mechanism on how the adsorbent removes the pollutant and also to modify its performance, you will need to study the removal kinetics (time and rate of pollutant removal, their various models used to do this), isotherm (how concentration changes affect the adsorbent performance, meaning can it remove heavy crude or light crude (changes in concentration), various models to be used) and Thermodynamics (how temperature changes during the treatment affect the adsorption capacity). All these will help you understand the removal mechanism and formulate possible pathway with which the adsorbent remove the oil.

5. Then, reuse cycle of the adsorbent: this will help you understand how long your adsorbent can last and its efficiency and performance and costing.

3. I am really interested in oil spill cleanup. Can you recommend a better low-cost and environmentally friendly method?

Adsorption is low cost and fine for your level. When you understand it well and see the performance of your material/technology you can move to more advanced treatment tech.

I am just a newly admitted MSc student, yet to start my course work. My supervisor told me he'll like to know my area of interest. I really want to do something reasonable in my MSc project. I look forward to hearing from you prof.
...and compliments of the season!

This a nice area of research, 6 years ago I designed a low-cost UV-vacuum-photocatalytic polymeric membrane system for treatment of 100 L of oily wastewater for 5 differents restaurants it cost roughly 150k (naira) for each set-up. This is a private project and working effectively. So when you understand the treatment tech you can ace up.

Attached here is a chitosan-based sponge for treatment of oily wastewater. Also, you can synthesize your own chitosan from shrimp shells or use commercial one and compare the efficiency.

Chitosan preparation: collect shrimp shells and demineralized overnight in an aqueous HCl solution (5%; w/v) at room temperature with the ratio of 1:14 (w/v). Then, the demineralized shells should be washed with distilled water for removing the excess of acid, then soak in a solution of NaOH (5%; w/v) for 24 h with the ratio of 1:12 (w/v). You will obtain chitin, the extracted chitin should be washed several times with distilled water to remove the excess of alkali, then left to dry at room temperature. To chitosan, the extracted chitin should be deacetylated using NaOH (50%; w/v) at 120 °C (1:50 (w/v) for 12 h. Finally, the rinse the chitosan obtain till neutrality and followed with drying at room temperature. There are various procedure to do this, this one is kind of simple and straight forward. Note that, the performance of commercially prepared chitosan may be higher but you can compare and give your work some novelty as well.

Good day. Please is it true that if you are refused a Visa at Turkish Embassy in Abuja you can no longer use ok to board?

Untrue

Also i also heard that one can't apply at the embassy now because the student lists have not been sent from the universities to the embassy, please is this correct? Thank you and great job you are doing

Embassy will only evaluate visa applications if the university sends name and received by embassy. Generally universities have started sending names for spring entry (February 2020). You can apply but issuances are based on if the embassy received names sent from universities.

bilal4riid:
Greetings to progressive minds especially prof wip7. After quite long time, I’m now onboard.
I think about modifying organic compound from hydrophilic to hydrophobic. E.g furfural is hydrophilic how do we make it hydrophobic. I wish to hear your candid contribution. Thanks

When you are Converting material from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, you must first think of reason for this conversion, it’s application and the end product, so as not to damage the raw material.

1. You can convert using plasma treatment technique, especially atmospheric pressure based plasma.

2. Organosilane: You can use silanes with aliphatic or fluorinated hydrocarbon sub-
stituents to induce surface hydrophobicity. Example: poly[(3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)methylsiloxane] (PTFPMS)

goodmanEU:
I am beginning to write my academic masters thesis and will plead if someone can send me a sample copy of completed scientific thesis. I am not trying to copy or plagiarize the work but rather looking for a format to start drafting my own thesis literature.

@wip7

Thesis format varies based on university and country even though the elements in all theses have semblance.

Consult your university library or department secretary or dean office for thesis format/sample based on your university format.

Hello colleagues, Prof whip.
Good day Professor, sir, I need your assistance on how I can secure PhD admission In Turkey in any good university (Public),
field of Research: Environmental Engineering/Water and waste water treatment.

Don't have GRE, but I can accept conditional admission.

Please help me out, I will get funding with the admission
Thank you
mohammedmusty88@gmail.com

Securing admission in public universities in Turkey is highly competitive due to quota system, hence GRE or ALES are demanded to weight individual applicant apart from the high CGPA requirement (minimum 3/4.0, note, undergrad cgpa from 3.8/5.0 will be helpful)

If you don’t have GRE, kindly consider enrolling in private universities in Turkey.

Beenkay:


Thanks Prof.
The topic can be classified under Behavioral Economics, but as you pointed out I'd get back to you on topics that reflects more towards Economics.
Once again, I'm grateful

Thank you for pointing out that your research area is under behavioral economics (microeconomics). If your major area of focus is microeconomics, would you mind considering environmental Econ or developmental Econs or energy Econ?

Developmental Econ: currently many developing countries have issues and trying to emerg/diversify. I believe Research in this area will be very useful in various emerging markets like Africa, many Asian countries and numbers of European countries even Caribbean countries.

Environmental and energy Econs: without stable energy or conducive environment (all environmental factors) it will be challenging for any economic growth. Various research reports have pointed that this affects both developed and developing nations. I believe Research in this area can play a vital role.

That’s just my personal views, does not mean they are right. You are very free to decide which research area you find interesting and useful to your personal life and community.

hi @wip7 I need to discuss school research opportunity with you. Help contact me personally on henryvic80@yahoo.co.uk thanks

Hi,

You can email me, you find my email address in my signature.

babyfaceafrica:
is it possible to get foreign schorlaship for an mphil/PhD grade in Masters?..if yes can you give examples of schools overseas that can do that

cc:Wip7

thanks

Yes it is possible to get scholarships abroad. You will need to do google search for University that offers scholarship abroad.

Most foreign university does that and they do have selection criteria. Read many page back on this thread you will see have explained possible ways to get scholarships.

Google will be very useful, researchgate, university websites, UNESCO website, THE website etc will be where you should be looking at.

Best wishes in your searches!

Hello @Prof Wip7
I have a Bachelor's degree in Education Economics, Msc in Development Economics.
I'd love to start my PhD in Economics by fall next year, hopefully with a fully funded scholarship.
I've chosen a research topic of interest "understanding career progression and promotion: a systematic review of actual career paths". But I don't really know how to start...
Note, I don't have any publication yet.
Any advice on the way forward will really be appreciated

Am happy to see you are progressing. However, before starting your project and learning how to publish or undertake a research, let talk about your proposed research.

The title of your research up there, has no direct connections with economics....does it ? Can you explain how it’s related to Economics? If not can you change it to research areas that reflects more towards Econs?

Also, don’t localized/nationalized (100%) your research area. Make the research topics have a balanced view (meaning should be applicable in local context, internationally useful, applicable to emerging and developed nations). This way you can easily publish your findings and can be useful to policy makers, researchers and students worldwide.

When you are done selecting newer research topics let me know so as to guide on how to start your literature and so on.

Latest publication: Conversion of discarded Chewing Gum into Efficient Magnetic Recyclable Adsorbent for Treatment of Pharmaceutical Wastes


Research: Until now, no studies reported the application of discarded chewing gum derived pyrochar for detoxification of trichlorophenol wastewater. Chewing gum is composed of a non-digestible polymer and the discarded chewing gum (DCG) is a notorious environmental waste which is difficult to deal with. In fact, the DCG is a major and increasingly growing social and environmental issue due to its high stickiness and longer years to biodegrade. We collected 50 kg of discarded chewing gum and pyrolyzed it into efficient material, the efficiency of the final product outperformed variously reported adsorbents in water and wastewater treatment.

Pollutants treated: Wastewaters from hospitals, pharmaceuticals, agricultural run-offs.

Publication: The results of our research is recently published in the Chemical Engineering Communication Journals.

The technique used: Fixed-column bi-layer adsorption system designed for a small scale treatment plant.

Researcher: A female PhD student supervised by Prof. WIP/WIP7.

Kudos to Prof. Wip7 for his excellent research contributions across the globe. He is a great man of high repute! Please permit me to show you just one thing among others he has achieved:
He deserves to be celebrated.

Thanks sir/ma!

iphi:
thank you sir, please one is bearing isikwei Ifeanyi john the passport is bearing isikwei ifeanyinachukwu Alex. Is there a way affidavit will work?

This appears to be two different people. I doubt the university will accept this.

iphi:
Please sir Mr wip7 and people of experience I need your help. There is someone that wants to come to Cyprus for school, the name in the passport is different from the name in the result. Please what is the best option to go about this

If all the names is different then no way.

If just one is different may take affidavits, so the university if they wish may consider it.

smiles1210:
Hello prof, please I need your guidance, am thinking of writing a research proposal oil spill cleanup using low-cost materials as absorbent, but can't decide on d appropriate materials for the adsorbent, because they have to be hydrophobic and oleophilic in nature. Please sir,can you enlighten me on some of the choices available.... Thinking of modified chitosan.

Oily wastewaters are heterogeneous in nature, thus containing various types of oils, metals, surfactants from detergents, metals etc......The content/composition and concentration of oily wastewaters varies greatly between various industries. Therefore, to design effective treatment technology for oily wastewater, there are few points/parameters to be considered.

1. Type of treatment technology
2. Type/content of oily wastewater
3. The salinity of the oily wastewater
4. What will you use the treated water for will determine the degree of the treatment.
5. Weather system (is it iced water oil spill or ambient temperature (non-frozen) water)
6. Size of the oil droplets

In practical application, combine treatment technology will be effective for enhanced oil spill cleaning. The common effective combination is based on membrane filtration and adsorption technology. You have indicated the use of adsorption technology and your focus is on polymeric adsorbent (chitosan).

Chitosan has gained tremendous success when it comes to wastewater treatment due to its bio-friendly nature and modifiable functional groups. Commonly, we have oil droplets in the range of 10-50 μm which is suitable to be treated by adsorption technique, however, 50-150 μm will be suited for membrane filtration (majorly Forward osmosis) and beyond 150 μm will be suited for advanced oxidation processes.

In recent years, hybrid materials/adsorbents have received much interest owing to high adsorption efficiency, high surface area and strong affinity. You can modify the chitosan with functional agents to make it hydrophilic, considering the hydrophobic property of oil droplet. Hence, you may prepare grafted or modified chitosan considering the following, to modify or graft the chitosan:

1. dimethyl acryloyloxyethyl benzyl ammonium chloride
2. Silica
3. Polyacrylamide
4. Alginate
5. Catalytic metal oxides (CuO, Fe2O4, ZnO)
6. Zeolite (this is commonly used in oil industries)
7. layered double hydroxides composites (LDH)

My suggestion: Prepare LDH and modify chitosan with the LDH. Read about LDH and check the efficiency and properties. LDH/Chitosan adsorbent or membrane can be prepared and used in both the fixed-bed column treatment system or via batch adsorption. If you want to use in batch system, you can prepare LDH/chitosan beads which are easy to prepare.

Here is an example of modified chitosan with alginate for oily wastewater treatment.

Good day WIP and good job you doing. I heard that to enter TRNC a student must be in possession of his original WAEC or neco certificate or else I'm migration at Ercan will not allow the student into TRNC. Please how true is this? Thanks a lot

Yes. Also, student must come with the originals for University registration if not university won’t register such student, even if registered would be given few weeks to deposit the original. Lately Immigration at ERCAN have been modifying their rules and becoming tougher so no originals have gotten several students deported on spot.

My Recent Research Publication: Water Soluble Eco/bio-friendly Polymeric Materials for Antibacterial Activity

Here, my PhD student focused on designing various high-performance bio-friendly polymeric materials that will be useful for food packaging. We were able to modify the functionality and chemical structure of the polymeric materials to improve its solubility in water, hence improving its practical ability.

Results: We investigated 10 different bacterial species and The time-kill study revealed that 5 mg of our material exposed to the bacteria cells is sufficient to kill 99.9% of the bacteria within 24 h. The material is tested for food packaging, waterborne bacterial and textile effluents with relatively high performance.

Research Publication: The results of this PhD study have now been published in two Reputable SCI journals (Polymer bulletin and Pharmaceutical Sciences).

Researcher: PhD candidate (a lecturer sponsored by Nigerian govt)

Supervisor: Prof. WIP7

Research Location: Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU)

Hello, Prof.
Thanks for the good work. I can see you have come way back and it’s not easy responding to many questions but U have managed to do so.

To my question: I have a weird profile:
B.A. in History - 2009
Master of Business Administration (MBA)- 2014
MSc in Management - 2018
I really desire to do my PhD abroad, but getting a an affordable University and meeting the admissions requirements seems difficult due to my profile.

Mainly, I have interest in Organizational Behavior and Entrepreneurship. While I have seen that these two research focus seem to stand on its own at Master and PhD.

While I understand that it is a personal decision, I will like your expertise and wealth of wisdom in determining which area is the best to pursue in light of my Academic profile (background).

Anyone with advice can also weigh in on this pls. Thank you.

From my experience and considering research from developed nations and the demand and need in developing nations. I will suggest research focusing on Entrepreneurship. Bunch of research areas can be designed from Entrepreneurship looking at emerging markets, management aspects, energy, forecasting, merger, micro-geographical diversity etc. Both your Masters will be useful in that line.

Although, most of the universities would prefer your undergraduate to be in line if not you will be given foundational courses to allow you to blend and brush your background.

You can start doing research in your chosen area, collect data and publish in a good journal, this will aid you as you move into PhD program or while seeking admission.

Best wishes!
