Indoor gigabit optical wireless communications: challenges and possibilities

Indoor Gigabit optical wireless communication systems have the potential to offer multiple high-speed data services that can be delivered to homes via an optical fibre cable in the near future. In this paper we will discuss the challenges involved in the design of such systems and future possible advances. Results from a recent cellular Gigabit prototype link will also be presented and discussed

Preparation and characterisation of irradiated waste eggshells as oil adsorbent

Adsorption method had been developed by using natural organic adsorbent for the removal of oil because of its ability to bind the oil molecules into the surface of adsorbent. In this study, chicken eggshells waste was used and it undergoes irradiation process with four different amount of dose which was 0.5 kGy, 1.0 kGy, 1.5 kGy, and 2.0 kGy by using Gamma Cell Irradiator. Three equipment had been used for the characterization process which were the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The adsorption experiment was conducted to calculate the sorption efficiency by using different mass of samples. The result showed that irradiated chicken eggshells powder with 2.0 kGy amount of radiation dose has a best performance as oil adsorbent
