The global demand for plastic has risen, driven by plastic-based goods, exerting strain on the existing waste treatment infrastructure. Plastics typically consist of synthetic and semi-synthetic materials, mainly composed of polymers. Plastics include lightweight, cost-effective, easily...

Concrete is an indispensable construction material renowned for its versatility and durability, yet its traditional components pose significant environmental challenges. The cement industry is a major emitter of CO2, while the extensive extraction of natural aggregates depletes finite resources. In...

Lignocellulosic biomass is a complex natural polymer primarily composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and various other chemical components. The cellulose in the lignocellulosic biomass can depolymerize into a nano-dimension biomaterial called nanocellulose, which possesses unique features...

Natural gravel used as aggregates in the construction had a severe impact on the environment leading to scarcity in recent times. Furthermore, the resistance of such natural aggregates to crack at higher temperature zones was less. This paper investigates the above concerns on scarcity and meagre...

In recent past, attentions are towards preserving and restoring the resources of environment in terms of development of new products of environmental safety, Therefore utilization of vegetable fibres, extracts from stem, leaves, fruits and roots for the production of biopolymers / improving...
