As COVID-19 has propagated well-known, governments have taken nationwide moderation to restrain it, from regulations to moves toward off the economization as a whole. Know-how its outcome is imperative to help larger policies for nations that are not but preponderant or in the outcome of a succeeding epidemic. Here we demonstrated that the aggregated conquest in electricity decay in the five-month sequential homestay management became among 3% and 12% in most affected European and Asia countries; besides, Florida, which has not proven any continuous variation. For the reason that Italy, France, Spain, China, and India got greater fundamental damage through the limit of July, especially Britain and Germany are under the baseline. We also showed that the connection between severity and the curtailment of covid-19 based electricity decay is not linear. Those findings showed the extremity of the disaster in different nations and could further look at the upcoming, similar global crisis.

The study was done to explore the production of charcoal briquettes that could meet the need for energy in the community of Jimma city. The primary objective of this work is to produce charcoal from the most promising wastes. Under these objectives the main activities which performed were sorting waste, characterization of wastes that can easily degradable, designing carbonizer equipment, manual press molding machine, and characterizing charcoal briquettes. Degradable municipal waste was collected from Jimma city. The charcoal production process includes a collection of degradable municipal waste, drying, carbonization, crushing and sieving, binder preparation, binder – charcoal mixing, briquette charcoal (compaction and drying), and packing. The test result of degradable municipal solid waste for its density, % of moisture, % of volatile matter, % of ash, % of fixed carbon, and caloric value of was determined as 157.3kg/m3, 18.15%, 66.95%, 4.07%, 10.83%, and 18.5MJ/kg, respectively. In the same way the test result for charcoal briquette for its density, porosity weight index, shatter resistance ,moisture content, volatile matter, ash content, fixed carbon content, and caloric value was obtained as 50.06kg/m3, 29.05%, 92.3 %, 9.87%, 29.4%, 3.21%, 57.52% and 27.0MJ/kg, respectively. These results show in the range compared with others reported in literature. Therefore, there is the possibility to convert Jimma City degradable solid wastes into charcoal briquette using starch as a binder. We can increase the quality of charcoal briquette rather than polluting the environment.
