Limult Phosphate Mining and Processing Factory in Nigeria
Phosphorus is not one of the most common elements in Earth's crust and mantle, yet it essential for all life, plant and animal. Phosphorus makes up our bones and teeth, and importantly, phosphorus comprises DNA.
Even though plants require more nitrogen and oxygen than they do phosphorus, phosphorus is often the limiting nutrient; the amount of available phosphorus determines the amount of plant growth and development. Where phosphorus is plentiful, plants thrive, and vice versa. However, plants cannot absorb limitless amounts of phosphorus. Phosphorus not used by plants remains in the soil or runs off in streams and groundwater.
In a given area of land, plants grow and remove phosphorus from the soil. But then those plants die, and the phosphorus is their tissues is recycled back into the soil. When land is farmed, plants absorb the phosphorus, but then the plants are removed to be eaten. Because this reduces the amount of soil phosphorus available, humans started adding phosphorus fertilizer to soils.
Some of the fertilizer was organic, from ground up bones or mined guano (bat dung). But humans then started mining phosphorus from both igneous and sedimentary (but mostly sedimentary) rock. The use of inorganic phosphate fertilizer (aka chemical fertilizer) greatly altered the phosphorus cycle.
Phosphorus in rock is pretty insoluble and thus not directly available to plants. In nature, rock phosphate can become soluble (and available to plants) either by chemical weathering or through the actions of certain types of plants. The solubility also depends on rock type and the pH of the soil; phosphorus is most soluble when contained in sedimentary rocks as opposed to igneous rock, and when soil pH is between 5.5 and 7.2.
Therefore, spreading phosphate rock on fields had little effect on plant growth. However, in the mid-1800s, chemists discovered that mixing sulfuric acid with phosphate rock would make a soluble fine powder called superphosphate; this discovery turned phosphate rock into the valuable fertilizer it is today. A caveat, however, is that once fertilizer is applied to the soil, the phosphorus not absorbed by plants can adhere to soil or clay particles, and become an insoluble solid once again.

Public Park Construction Project in Nigeria by Limult
Parks are critical to a community’s spirit. Without public parks, there’d be little social interaction, with no play space for kids and no enjoyable outdoor resting space for adults. From splash parks to dog parks to playgrounds, these public green spaces are recreational areas that serve the needs of community members.
Building a park always starts with identifying the location. If you’ve got a park location in mind, or are looking at several potential locations, consider these fundamental factors:
- Accessibility: Is the location wheelchair accessible, and can it be easily reached by public transport, car or bike? The easier it is to get to the park, the more use it will get. It’s important to build inclusive playgrounds to make everyone feel welcome.
- Character: Is there a historic location or special area that could attract park-goers for more than just nature? Use your community’s unique characteristics and history to drive park traffic and strengthen community ties.
- Safety: Is the area you’re considering located somewhere that’s considered safe, with a low crime rate?
Many of today’s new parks are developed on lands designated by planning committees. The space could either be unused, and open for development, or it could be an area that is already associated with public property such as school grounds. Likewise, it could even be private property turned public by estate grants or service organization purchases.
Regardless, all parks must have public access if they’re going to serve the community’s highest and best needs.

Construction of a Community Borehole Project in Nigeria by Limult
Borehole construction and drilling techniques are reviewed
focusing on the appropriateness of different methods for various aquifer
characterization scenarios. The drilling method and well construction selected
for an aquifer characterization program should be based on consideration of the
type of testing to be performed, borehole conditions required for testing,
formation conditions (borehole stability), formation sample requirements, well
depth, water quality, planned use of the well after the completion of the
program, local driller capabilities and expertise, drilling fluid disposal,
local regulations, and cost.
A key factor dictating
drilling and formation sampling methods is whether or not a borehole is stable
(i.e., penetrated strata are nitrified or sufficiently cohesive). Wells should
be designed, constructed, and developed to maximize well efficiency,
particularly if they are to be used as production wells or for single-well
hydraulic testing (e.g., slug testing).

Construction of District Hospital project in Nigeria by Limult
Hospital construction projects pose extremely complex managerial problems. Recent government reports have been scathing in their criticisms of the unacceptable delays and cost increases in the delivery of new hospitals. The problems that hospital project managers face are particularly acute during the early stages of the project when the detailed user requirements are being established.
Many of the problems that develop later in the project can be traced back to a lack of attention given to the early stages of the project. It is in these early stages that the project manager has to reconcile the many disparate and often conflicting demands made by the multitude of user groups, funding bodies, government departments, estates maintenance departments and project consultants.
Hospital development characteristics
One of the most striking characteristics that distinguish hospital projects from other project types is the time scale over which they occur and the large costs involved. It is common for total costs to run to many tens of millions of naira and for total project time scales to reach ten to fifteen years.
When these types of time scales are compared against the average human life of seventy years their significance becomes apparent. Technologically, hospitals are also likely to be highly complex requiring the integration of diverse and intricate building services.
Functionally they are equally complex, having to satisfy the disparate demands of the general public and the highly trained staff that operate the facility. The functional performance requirements are such that the quality of construction has to be exceptionally high.

Construction of Road Project in Nigeria by Limult
Road construction involves the paving, rehabilitation, and reclamation of degraded pavements in order to achieve a state of good repair and increase road traffic safety. Construction of road involves the use of asphalt, liquid asphalt, concrete, soil stabilization, rebar, paving and pavement recycling machines, and other road repair materials.
Road construction projects are expensive and highly affected by uncertainties related to factors such as weather, type of soil and other site and environmental factors. These uncertainties impact on the accuracy of predicting resource productivity and developing reliable schedules for earthwork operations.
Current simulation and planning approaches and tools not only lack the capabilities of dealing with such uncertainties but they also lack the integration and intelligence to simulate multiple strategies – a model should be built every time a new scenario is required. As a result, planning decisions regarding the assignment of resources are purely based on planners experience and project plans are not the outcomes of comparing various allocation strategies.
The Steps To Starting A Road Construction Project
Concept Planning and Funding
Before any type of road maintenance or construction project can begin, industry professionals must receive the proper plans and funding. During this phase, the local government raises the notion of building or fixing certain areas. Then, it raises money in case of approval. The government will choose a construction company for the task and ask them to develop blueprints for the project.
Environmental Review and Inspection
The next step to starting a road construction project is to conduct an environmental impact review and overall inspection of the proposed job site. This is to assess the amount of damage posed to the environment during the course of the project, and whether the result is worth the risk. If given the go-ahead, those in charge of the project are required to perform a full inspection of the site to check whether it aligns with the project plans.
Job Site Preparation
Once everything is inspected and approved, it’s time to start preparing the site for the actual construction process. This often involves acquiring the proper equipment, establishing a construction zone lighting plan, and contacting material suppliers. For road projects, the government may hire professional flaggers to block off the construction zone and properly direct traffic. These are the best methods to ensure maximum safety for both workers and passing drivers.
Construction
Only after all of this planning and preparation can construction officially start. Depending on the type and scale of the work, the old road may be removed and repaved with fresh asphalt. Road work may also require fixing broken electrical lines or even water mains that run underground. Each project will be different, so the planning stages are crucial in ensuring that all problems are addressed.

Construction of Bridge Project in Nigeria by Limult
Much planning for bridge construction is required as it has huge impact on life of people. Social, scientific and technological dimensions for bridge construction must be considered. The decision of providing a bridge across any barrier is to facilitate the community residing on either side of the project. Some major bridges bring benefits to the whole country.
Building a bridge is a complex undertaking requiring knowledge and expertise. Several variables, including engineering constraints, costs, and environmental impacts come into play when deciding which construction method to use and bridge type to build.
LIMULT has experience with a wide variety of construction methods, from repairing historic cast-iron structures and masonry arches, to erecting modern steel-girder and concrete bridges. Whether building an overpass for greater traffic efficiency, a pedestrian bridge to connect two communities, or a signature bridge that will inspire a whole city, we understand the importance of working closely with local road and infrastructure engineering companies, agencies, and contractors.
Planning Sequence for Bridge Construction
The planning sequence for the construction of a new highway or a railway project is a major part of the project planning. Based on the complexity of the barrier across which the bridge must be constructed, the detailing of the project planning increases, because more investigation must be carried out. In general, the major steps that are involved in the planning for the construction of a new project is mentioned below:
- Identifying the need for the bridge
- Assessment of traffic possible and required in the area proposed to construct the bridge
- Study the location
- Study of all possible alternatives
- Refining and short listing all possible alternatives
- Identifying conceptual plans for the alternatives. This involves finding the materials, the arrangement of the span and the form.
- Preliminary design and the cost estimation
- Evaluating the alternatives, its risk and the final choice of decision
- Resource source identification by detailed surveying
- Implementation with the help of bidding documents. This is followed by carrying out by fixing the agency, the construction details, and their commissioning.
