A Regional Structural Mapping Approach for Mineral Exploration: Application in the Southwestern Region of Burkina Faso
Kalidou Traoré, Benjamin Sawadogo, Koffi Vincent de Paul Vodounnou, Wilédio Marc-Emile Bonzi, Georges Alassane Ouattara, Morou François Ouédraogo, Séta Naba
From a harmonized structural map at the scale of a portion of SW Burkina Faso (90 × 80 km2), we targeted prospective zones on the basis of structural criteria and structure-geology relationships. The map was constructed from an aeromagnetic image, and the geology was deduced from old geological maps. The procedure involved extracting the magne(...)

Technical and Economic Pre-Feasibility Study for a Micro-Hydro Plant and Solar Photovoltaic System for the Eco-Tourist Village of Mandraka
Adélaïde Lareba Ouedraogo, Dominique Bonkoungou, Eric Simonguy, Eric Korsaga, Sami Florent Palm, Sié Kam, Achille Olivier Ravoninjatovo, Dieudonné Joseph Bathiebo
Madagascar is well endowed with energy resources, particularly renewable energies.
These include watercourses for hydropower, solar irradiation for photovoltaic
solar energy, wind for wind power, as well as exploitable surfaces for
bioenergy, although these are currently little exploited. What’s more, the electricity
distribution network c(...)

Gasification of Raw, Roasted and Carbonized Cashew Shells Using and Fixed Bed Co-Current Gasifier
Bénéwindé Edwige 2ème Jumelle Ouédraogo, Gado Harouna Ibrahim, Wend-Kuni Gisele Bilgo, Tizane Daho, Oumar Sanogo, Antoine Bere
The present study focuses on the improvement of gas quality by gasification of raw and cashew shells heat treatment by roasting and carbonization. The gasifier is a fixed-bed co-current batch mode, with a throat. It has a thermal power of around 30 kW. It meets the need for low electrical power of the order of 10 kWe. It has a double wall with(...)

Synthesis, Experimental Characterizations and Theoretical Study of the Chemical Reactivity of Coumarin-6-yl Acetate in Gas and Solvent Phases
Honoré Kouadio Yao, Zakaria Koulabiga, Akoun Abou, Abdoulaye Djandé, Stéphane Coussan, Olivier Ouari
The first objective of the study is based on experimental characterization of the studied compound. The synthetization process of
C11H8O4 (I) involved the O-acetylation of 6-hydroxycoumarin with acetic anhydride, utilizing diethyl ether as a solvent and
pyridine as a base. The obtained structure was characterized by both spectroscopic analys(...)

CONTRIBUTION OF SATELLITE IMAGERY TO THE MAPPING OF POTENTIALLY WATER-BEARING FRACTURE NETWORKS IN THE COMMUNE OF TANGHIN DASSOURI (CENTRAL BURKINA FASO)
Hassami Ouédraogo, Césard Millogo, Sayoba Kafando and Samuel Nakolendoussé
The groundwater resources of crystalline bedrock regions are primarily located within lithostructural discontinuities. While traditional methods of photo-interpretation of satellite imagery are widely employed, they are often constrained by factors such as cloud cover, dense vegetation, and the subjectivity of the interpreter. To mitigate thes(...)

Brahima Kirakoya1,2*, Clotaire Yameogo1,2, Morgane Kambou2, Ouedan Idogo2, Abdullah Ayed3, Gille Nacthagande4 and Fasnewinde Aristide Kabore1,2
Background Testicular torsion (TT) is the abnormal twisting of the spermatic cord leading to strangulation of the testis.
Any non-traumatic acute scrotal pain in adolescents and young adults is considered TT until proven otherwise. It
is a urological emergency. The diagnosis is clinically based on symptoms and signs that raise a high index o(...)
