Opis:: Though Nigeria possesses one of the largest natural gas reserves in the world, it is unfortunate that we are still one of the major gas flaring nations in the world. Besides the grave environmental consequences of gas flaring, it is still an unwise practice considering the impeding global energy crisis within the next 50 years. In this paper, the potentials of natural gas as an untapped reserve of wealth and socio-economic power is discussed. The potential of the Nigerian gas sub-sector can be fully harnessed if the mechanisms of commercialisation in line with the gas master plan is put in motion. The completion of a comprehensive gas pipeline network and the promotion of direct foreign investment is a good means of achieving the commercialisation initiative. About $3.5bn worth of investments is coming into the country to achieve the gas flare commercialisation targets by 2020. The commercialisation programme seeks to provide a framework to eliminate gas flaring which when fully implemented would actualise potential for immense wealth laden in Nation’s gas reserves.

Opis:: The menace of gas flaring in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria has continued unabated despite incessant promises by the Federal Government to put an end to it. In this study, a spatial analysis of the accumulation of heavy metals in leaves of Mangifera indica and Penthaclethra macrophylla and the soils on which they are growing was carried out. Three sites – 1, 2 & 3, were selected based on the availability M. indica and P. macrophylla at 100 m, 250 m and 350 m distances respectively, from the gas flaring source. Three individual trees were randomly selected from each of M. indica and P. macrophylla for soil and leaf sampling at each site. The collected soil and leaf samples were analysed for Zinc (Zn), Lead (Pb), Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Nickel (Ni) and Copper (Cu), using standard methods. There was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in the concentrations of the heavy metals in soils around the roots of M. indica at the 3 sites except for Cd. Copper (Cu), Zn and Cr varied significantly (p < 0.05) in soils around the roots of P. macrophylla at the sites. Cadmium and Ni were almost absent in soils and leaves of both species at the sites. There was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in the concentrations of heavy metals in soils around the roots of M. indica and P. macrophylla at each site except in Site 1 where Cu, Zn and Cr, and Site 3 where Cr, varied significantly between the two species. Copper (Cu), Zn, Cr and Pb in leaves of both M. indica and P. macrophylla varied significantly (p < 0.05) among the sites. Concentrations of the heavy metals in leaves of both species at each site did not vary significantly (p > 0.05) except for Cr in Site 2. The concentrations of the heavy metals in both soil and leaves of the two tree species were within the permissible limits except for Chromium.

Opis:: The assessment of air quality and meteorological variables in Lower Stubbs Creek, Qua Iboe River Estuary, Nigeria was carried out using portable hand held gas monitors for atmospheric gases and hygrometer, thermometer, anemometer and digital compass for relative humidity, temperature, wind speed and wind direction. Parameters measured were SO2, NO2, H2S, CO, NH3, Cl2, HCN, PM2.5, PM10, relative humidity, temperature, wind speed and wind direction. The results for the atmospheric gases followed this decreasing magnitude; PM10 (110.35 µ/m3) > PM2.5 (55.66 µ/m3) > CO (19.00 ppm) > NH3 (5.86 ppm) > HCN (1.41 ppm) > H2S (0.77 ppm) > Cl2 (0.47 ppm) > NO2 (0.28 ppm) > SO2 (0.26 ppm). For the meteorological variables, the mean values for temperature, relative humidity and wind speed were 25.86 ºC, 67.71 % and 1.17 m/s. The predominant wind direction was the North Easterly winds. The result for the air quality using 5 criteria pollutants showed that NO2, SO2 had Air Quality Index (AQI) values of 0 each, while CO, PM2.5 and PM10 had AQI values of 224, 151 and 78, respectively. Based on the air quality ratings, the average concentrations of NO2, and SO2 in the atmosphere were good while the concentrations of CO, PM2.5 and PM10 were very unhealthy, unhealthy and moderate, respectively. This study shows that this region is polluted with CO and particulate matters, hence requires prompt intervention plans and consistent monitoring.

Tytuł:: Natural Gas Flaring in Nigeria, its Effects and Potential Alternatives – A Review

Opis:: Nigeria is a country blessed with vast oil and natural gas resources, due to inadequate management of resources most of the natural gas is flared. One of the most pressing challenges today is global warming. Gas flaring has been known to deliver carbon dioxide and other ozone depleting substances which cause unnatural weather change. This paper focuses on gas flaring; its definition, composition, types and classifications. It also highlights the policies that have been made in Nigeria concerning gas flaring and provides alternative solutions to gas flaring.
