Abstract:
Paraffin wax burned cleanly, burn brighter and was less expensive to produce than other candle fuels, it represented a significant advancement in the candle-making industry. However, since paraffin wax melts easily, most candles manufactured with it are fragile. Many experiments and techniques have shown that stearic acid and paraffin wax could work well together to produce long-lasting candles. This study examines how the proportion of stearic acid added to paraffin wax candles affects the candles' ability to burn efficiently. Few paraffin waxes candles that are, 5%, 10%, and 15% were made in

Relaxation is considered as a process that relieves stress on your mind and body. At the present, there are many different forms of relaxation and aromatherapy. One of the important products to be developed further is aromatherapy candles. However, candles on the market generally still use materials that are not environmentally friendly such as paraffin. So this study aims to making aromatherapy candle using natural ingredients from essential oils and soybean oil. Soybean oil (Soy wax) is a potential substitute for paraffin which is biodegradable, renewable and friendly environment. This study

Abstract Indoor air quality is a key aspect of people staying inside buildings. Combustion processes have been identified as one of the most important sources of pollutants in the indoor environment. Proper HVAC design must account for all sources and variations in their intensity, such as also the burning of candles, which produce not only increased amounts of carbon dioxide as a result of the combustion of the organic matrix, but also often dangerous organic substances. On the other hand, the candle burning represents an energy source as well. This article deals with the study of thermal dec

Abstract:
For many off-grid rural communities, renewable energy resources may be the only viable option for household and village energy supply and electrification. This is especially true for many rural regions in Southern Africa, where the population spread is characterised by small villages. These rural villages rely heavily on firewood and biomass to meet thermal energy needs (hot water and cooking), while candles, kerosene and paraffin are mostly used for lighting. Hybrid concentrated solar micro-CHP (combined heat and power) technology systems have been proposed as viable energy solutions. This pa

This paper examines patterns and drivers of energy choices for cooking and lighting in South Africa using the Statistics South Africa Census data at the district municipality (districts) level. Employing spatial and ordinary least squares (OLS) regression analysis, the findings show that electricity is the main source of energy for cooking across South Africa. However, there is a large swathe of the country covering districts such as Vhembe and Mopani in Limpopo, eastern Mpumalanga, KwaZulu-Natal, and northern Eastern Cape provinces where wood is the predominantly used energy type for cooking.

However, several factors determine the success and marketing of these products to townships by retailers.

Our group have demonstrated that Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) detected by deep sequencing (DeepSeq) constitute a new non-invasive marker for monitoring response in follicular lymphoma (Jimenez-Ubieto A. et al.
