A mathematical model study with crowley-Martin functional responses to describe fish and zooplankton dynamics
Wendkouni Ouedraogo, Hamidou Ouedraogo, Ousmane Koutou, Boureima Sangare
In this paper, we consider a reaction-diffusion model with homogeneous Neumann
boundary conditions to describe fish and zooplankton dynamics. This model incorporates
a complex Crowley-Martin functional responses. We also introduce two important
elements: fishing and cannibalism effect in the dynamics. In the mathematical
analysis, global a(...)

Can inclusive growth reduce multidimensional poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa?
Adama SAWADOGO, Noel THIOMBIANO, Relwendé SAWADOGO
Poverty is a major concern for policymakers in Sub-Saharan Africa, as this region alone accounts for more than half of the world’s poor. This research analyses the effect of inclusive growth on multidimensional poverty in a sample of 33 Sub-Saharan African countries over the period 1996–2019. The results, derived from the first-difference esti(...)

Effectiveness of raw and activated laterite in removing lead and copper from aqueous solutions: A kinetic and thermodynamic study
Corneille Bakouan; Ollé Rodrigue Kam; Anne-Lise Hantson; Boubié Guel
The growing interest in local materials as natural adsorbents stems from their abundance, low cost, and
eco-friendliness, offering an effective, economical, and sustainable alternative to commercial options. The present
work investigates the removal performance of lead (Pb2+) and copper (Cu2+) ions from synthetic aqueous solutions
using(...)

The contribution of sports federations to economic growth in Burkina Faso
Prosper KABORE, Youssouf TRAORE, Omer COMBARY S.
This article analyzes the contribution of sports federations to economic growth in
Burkina Faso using an econometric model based on cross-sectional data covering the 2008
2022 period. The findings reveal that the organization of high-level championships (CHN),
investments made by sports federations (logdIPFédé), and the availability of sp(...)

Gold recovery from printed circuit boards in an acidic environment: A case study in Burkina Faso
Woulou SOMDA, Francis O. KONATE, Wendpagnagda COMBERE, Rafiatou LENGANE, Arsène H. YONLI
This study deal with a method for gold recovery from printed circuit boards (PCBs) obtained from WEEE collected in Burkina Faso. After grinding PCB samples and leaching with aqua regia, a solution rich in metal ions were obtained, containing notably 6.04 μg/g of gold, a concentration roughly 200 times higher than that of conventional gold ores(...)

Fungal Contaminants and Mycotoxins in Cassava and Cassava-Based Products in Africa: A Critical Analysis of Available Data
Ibonyé DIENI, François TAPSOBA, Touwendsida Serge BAGRE, Boureima Kagambèga, Wendenso Patrick Bertrand Tiendrébéogo and Nicolas BARRO
A literature review spanning 1999-2025 across Africa revealed a high prevalence of fungal and mycotoxin contamination in cassava and its derivatives. Predominant molds include Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Fusarium, with contamination rates averaging 80% - 100%. Climatic factors and inadequate agricultural and storage practices exacerbate cont(...)
