“…To investigate the relationship between oil dependence, EITI and access to water and sanitation in African countries, we start with the direct impact of oil dependence on access to water and sanitation. Our empirical model is borrowed from Tadadjeu et al (2020), who themselves drew on the highly influential work of Ndikumana and F I G U R E 1 Oil dependence and access to water and sanitation: potential channels.

“…Despite the extension of the resource curse to different indicators of development (Tadadjeu et al,), the economic literature has devoted little attention to studying the effects of natural resources on the provision of public goods (Cockx & Francken, 2016;Gylfason, 2001), particularly access to water and sanitation (Mazaheri, 2017;Tadadjeu et al, 2020). Moreover, no consensus emerges from this literature.…”

This paper investigates the effect of oil dependence on access to water and sanitation in 49 African countries, with data covering the period 1996-2015.Additionally, it investigates as a first attempt how the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) affects the relationship between oil dependence and access to water and sanitation. Using the two-step system generalized method of moments, the results show that oil dependence is negatively associated with access to water and sanitation, both for the total population and urban and rural populations, respectively. Considering the difference between oil abundance and oil dependence, we find that both oil abundance and oil dependence are negatively associated with access to water and sanitation. Finally, the results illustrate that the EITI mitigates the negative effect of oil dependence on access to water and sanitation in resources rich African countries.

“…Natural resources: since Sachs and Warner (1995) influential work supporting the resource curse hypothesis 5 , several empirical and theoretical studies have attempted to extend the resource curse hypothesis to other macroeconomic variables (Tadadjeu et al, 2020;2021) including income inequality. Although there are conflicting results, the majority of studies conclude that natural resources increase income inequality (Leameret al, 1999;Gylfason and Zoega, 2003;Fum and Hodler, 2010;Carmignani, 2013).…”

Variable-frequency drive (VFD) has been widely used in reverse osmosis desalination. Our purpose is to study how the VFD and pressure regulating valve affect the key parameters of reverse osmosis desalination and their action principle through experiments. Firstly, the power frequency is controlled by VFD, and the operating pressure is controlled by pressure regulating valve (needle valve) in the experiment. The feed water passes through the multimedia filter, precision filter and permeable membrane channel in turn, and permeate water and brine enter the fresh water tank and the brine tank respectively. Secondly, through experiments on seawater and brackish water respectively, the water flow rate, product water quality, energy consumption and recovery rate under different operating pressures are obtained when the power frequency is 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 respectively. Finally, combined with the working principle and mathematical model of VFD and high-pressure pump motor, the reason for the experimental results caused by the operation change is explained theoretically. The experimental results verify that for a certain recovery rate, the specific energy consumption required for water production decreases with decreasing power frequency. This provides desalination energy savings but at the expense of permeate production speed.
