Contribution of Mobile TB Clinic Fitted with Digital X-ray, CAD and Xpert MTB/RIF/Ultra on same day TB diagnosis and treatment initiation in Uganda.
REFNo: HS3797ES
General Objective
The goal of the study is to assess the usefulness of portable X-ray, CAD and GeneXpert fitted on Mobile TB clinic in enhancing TB detection and initiation of treatment among high risk patients in Uganda.
Specific Objectives
1. To determine the uptake of “enhanced” mobile TB clinic services using targeted active case finding outreaches/activities among the high-risk communities in Uganda.
2. To determine the operational feasibility and cost effectiveness of mobile TB clinics to conducting same day TB screening, diagnosis and treatment initiation.
3. To evaluate the diagnostic performance of CAD4TB using Xpert MTB/Rif ultra as the reference standard.

DEVELOPMENT OF A DOWNDRAFT GASIFIER USING BIOMASS GASIFICATION PROCESS FOR POWERING A COMMERCIAL FEED MILL
REFNo: SIR334ES
iv. To evaluate the performance of the downdraft biomass gasifier prototypes in terms of quality of the syngas and thermal efficiency under practical operating conditions. ,iii. To optimize process parameters of equivalent ratio, moisture content and reaction temperature to produce syngas with tar content less that 0.1 g/m3 and carbon dioxide percentage less than 5%,ii. To design and fabricate a downdraft gasifier prototype with a thermal power output of 5KW, Specific Gasification Rate of 2000 m3/m2hr, and able to achieve thermal efficiency of 60%.,i. To characterize groundnut shells and pine wood chippings in order to determine their appropriateness for gasification basing on their calorific value, ash content, fixed carbon, physical features and presence of contaminants.,The aim of this research is to develop a downdraft biomass gasifier for powering a mill for commercial production of animal feeds,
