Geophysical investigation for Groundwater which entails the use of vertical electrical sounding (VES) methods was carried out in parts of the Idemili area of Anambra State, Nigeria. Geologically the study area falls within the Nanka Sand, belonging to the Ameki Group in the Tertiary Niger Delta Basin. The investigation intends amongst others to assess the groundwater potential of the area, find out the existence of possible aquifer(s) within the area, and es-timate the possible depth of a borehole. 15 VES stations were established at the site using Ohmega System Tetrameter and Schlumberger electrode configuration with current electrode spacing (AB/2) of 350 meters. The geologic parameters, such as the number of geo-electric layers, the thickness of the geo-electric units, and their resistivities were interpreted from the VES curves. A qualitative assessment of the curves shows that a model with 5 layers would sufficiently model the field curves. The thickness value ranged from 0.1 to 86 m, the resistivity ranged from 258 to 13,258 Ωm, and the depth ranged between 1.2 and 109 m. Quantitative interpretation of field curves involved inversion with appropriate parameters using Zond Res1D software.

Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is liquid waste produced from palm oil extraction process. Discharging it to the river without treatment is violation according to Malaysia Environment of Quality Act (EQA) 1974. In Malaysia, ponding system is a conventional treatment method for POME due to its economical and simple process. The treatment process mainly involves two main treatment phases; anaerobic and aerobic degradation. Anaerobic degradation has a proven track record in reducing pollutant properties in POME up to 85%. The real challenge is to increase the efficiency of aerobic process as the biological oxygen demand (BOD) discharge limit has been further reduced from 100 mg∙L −1 to less than 20 mg∙L −1 . One of economical and feasible approach to increase the efficiency of aerobic phase is via bioremediation. This paper describes the limitation of aerobic degradation in ponding system, besides discussed on the important aspects that need to be optimized for a success implementation of bioremediation and its challenges.

The Unconventional Oil and Gas industry has seen growth over the last ten years that has drastically transformed the domestic energy outlook while bringing up increased concerns over climate and environmental issues. The rise of ESG and RSG can be seen as direct answers to these growing issues as communities and operators have both begun to demand better practices to limit the overall effects of UOG production. Few quantifiable metrics exist that holistically try to determine the overall effect UOG production has on local water resources. The FR2 metric/framework developed in this paper attempts to use commonly kept data such as water withdrawn and flowback volumes in conjunction with a new water stress index to quantify the effects operators are having on local water supplies. Testing this framework on a handful of operators from the Marcellus basin using open-source data re-vealed the value added by these methods as well as their use in a general RSG program.
