Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.
Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

patented technology for harnessing the
power of tidal currents at a cost that
can be more economical than carbon
power sources.
• We seek to deploy 3MW commercial-
scale, profit-generating turbines in
Scotland in 2016.
5. Management Team
• Aaron Davidson & Craig Hill, Patented Inventors
– For over 15 years Davidson (the engineering mind) and Hill (the building mind)
have devoted their efforts to designing, building, testing, and refining versions of
their venturi turbine for capturing the power of water and wind currents in order to
bring abundant, clean, green energy to the world.
– The duo established a world record with the performance of their turbine design.
– The inventors have won numerous awards and grants for their work.
• Tim Vos, Seasoned Marketer
– After careers in music, computers, teaching, and publishing, Vos has focused his
creative energies in recent years on bringing innovative alternative energy
solutions to market.
– Believing in the genius of collaboration to solve complex problems, Vos has
cultivated alliances with gifted inventors to deliver viable solutions that promise
value to investors and benefit to people around the world.
• Offshore Energy, Deep Sea Experts
– Across the globe, Offshore Energy has managed projects worth billions of
dollars, where their wealth of experience working in deep-sea environments has
delivered bankable results for their clients.
6. Opportunity
• We capture over 3 times the power from the
same tidal current as our competitors
• Scotland offers fast tidal currents with 100
times the power density of most tidal
currents around the world
• The UK is paying a 5-fold premium for tidal
energy over carbon energy, backed by 10-
year Power Purchase Agreements
7. Competitive Landscape
• Virtually all of our competitors deploy turbines in
free flowing water with no focusing mechanism. As a
result, over 3/4 of the kinetic energy in the water
flows around these turbines uncaptured.
• The UK has developed the world’s most advanced
tidal sector, where Atlantis Resources, DP Marine
Energy, and OpenHydro are the dominant players.
• Investment in the sector has lagged, because costs
for our competitors have remained stubbornly high,
leaving risk largely unrewarded by returns.
8. Company Strategy
• Develop tidal energy projects that
deliver premium power at a
premium price
• Streamline deployment and
maintenance
• Establish market dominance with
patented technology that captures
more power for less
9. Competitive Advantage
• Patented flow-focusing design
• Inexpensive, modular components
• Alliance with manufacturer of low-
maintenance, broad-range power
generators
• Low-cost, low-risk deployment
strategies
10. Risk Mitigation Strategies
• De-risk through innovation. Build a
commercial array at demonstration cost.
• Already tested at 1.2m and 2.4m sizes to
confirm scalability of power generation
• Government grants are available to grow
employment and capacity
• Lloyd’s of London marine risk underwriting
11. Specific Risks and Mitigation
• Permit Delays – may take longer than expected.
– Leverage contacts to expedite approvals.
• Tidal Force Magnitude – may be stronger than expected.
– Plan for greater forces than measured.
• Engineering Finite Element Analysis – materials may fail.
– Engineering firm bears indemnity.
• Contractual Default – permits and PPAs may not be honored.
– Obtain bonding and insurance.
• Currency Exchange Fluctuations – low Canadian dollar may rebound.
– Hedge or adjust expectations.
• Harsh Environment – debris, corrosion, or pitting may damage turbine.
– Low cost of modular replacement parts mitigates risk.
• Fish Kill or Entanglement – may present hazard to aquatic life.
– Slow revolution of turbine (under 12 RPM at peak) reduces hazard.
• Lower Cost Competition – other technologies may arise.
– PPA with creditworthy offtaker assures income for duration of contract.
12. Technology
• Hydrodynamic design channels and focuses
waterflow, boosting power capture more than
3-fold over competition
• Self-yawing feature keeps turbine at optimal
incidence to current
• Waterflow around the turbine creates a low
pressure zone at rear that concentrates flow
across the turbine
13. Economics
• On a 3MW deployment in a 3 m/s peak tidal stream, we
can generate about 6M kWh per year, yielding gross
revenues of £1.5M. After annual operation and
maintenance costs of £300K, we anticipate net annual
revenues of £1.2M, or £400 per kW of generating capacity.
This represents a 20 percent annual return on a £6M
project cost. After debt costs, equity investors would
share in 30 percent profits.
• Our projections are based on a 10-year Power Purchase
Agreement (PPA) at £0.25 per kWh available from
Smartest Energy, the UK’s largest provider of alternative
energy PPAs.
• Power Purchase Agreements assure a 5-fold premium on
up to 30 MW of tidal energy for 10 years.
15. Liquidity / Exit Strategy
• Pay investors hearty returns from
Year 1 to Year 10.
• 10-year contractual income stream
from PPA could be sold at minimal
discount, given creditworthiness of
government-backed utility as power
offtaker
16. Capitalization of Company
• $12M to deploy our first 3 MW array
• $5M equity, $4M debt, $3M grants
• Patent Holding Company provides
license for technology
• 40-percent equity investors will receive
50 percent of gross profits
17. Summary
• Patented, flow-focusing design delivers
triple the efficiency and triple the profits
of tidal industry, setting our technology
on a path to market dominance
• 5-fold revenues assured by 10-year PPA
• Share annualized 30 percent return with
investors
• Premium power at premium prices yields
premium profits
