are suitable for pipelines? Liquid and gases are transported in pipelines and any chemically stable substance can be sent through a pipeline. Pipelines exist for the transport of crude and refined petroleum‚ fuels - such as oil‚ natural gas and biofuels - and other fluids including sewage‚ slurry‚ water‚ and beer. Pneumatic tubes using compressed air can be used to transport solid capsules. What advantages and disadvantages pipelines have? The biggest advantage of pipelines is continiuos flow

ABSTRACT Cagayan De Oro City is a rapidly growing urban center‚ and with it comes complications of food supply and land scarcity. The relationship of Agriculture and Urban Expansion is tied with land and water consumption – As cities and populations grow‚ agricultural land is consumed first to facilitate this expansion.

In addition it has been said that tuba-tuba is an important feedstock for the production of biofuels. This study‚ therefore was conducted in order to develop a new product‚ the biogas‚ using the fruits from tuba-tuba so as to save on imported and most importantly increase local employment and help the economy to grow.
