About the Journal

The UMYU Journal of Pure and Industrial Chemical Research (UJPICR), published by the Department of Pure and Industrial Chemistry at Umaru Musa Yar'adua University, Katsina, features research on chemical applications, including corrosion inhibition, phytochemistry, and environmental monitoring. The journal covers studies on industrial chemical processes and biomass utilization.

       Key areas of research published in the journal include:
·         Corrosion Inhibition: Studies on using leaf extracts to inhibit mild steel corrosion in acidic environments.
·         Phytochemical Screening: Investigations into the bioactive components of plant extracts for pharmaceutical applications.
·         Environmental Chemical Studies: Analysis of heavy metals in industrial effluents and their impact on soil and plants.
·       Industrial Chemistry & Biomass: Research on renewable energy sources, such as producing levulinic acid from groundnut shells and optimizing high heating values of biomass blends, etc
