Improving Mechanical Properties of Magnesium matrix composite using reutilization of Electronic Waste and Boron Nitride
Solid Waste Management
This study examines the properties of Mg ( Magnesium )/E lectronic Waste/BN ( Boron Nitride ) composite materials by analyzing their wear rate and hardness using a one-variable-at-a-time approach. It reveals intricate relationships affecting material performance, with increasing E-Waste particle...
Exploring the Impact of Pesticide Resistance in Agricultural Pest Management
General
Pesticide resistance in agricultural pests threatens global food security despite ongoing advancements in pesticide technology. This study addresses the urgent need for a comprehensive understanding of resistance mechanisms and their ecological and economic implications. Through interdisciplinary...
Characterization of bio-crude produced by graphene carbon tetranitrate catalyzed hydrothermal liquefaction and ultrasonication of Ulva prolifera mixed Chicken waste
Sustainable Energy
The utilization of macroalgae, specifically Ulva prolifera , for the manufacture of bio-crude demonstrates great potential as a viable alternative to conventional fossil fuels. This is mostly owing to its abundant availability and renewable characteristics, making it an optimal choice for bio-oil...
Sulfate-reducing bacteria for bioremediation of sediments from constructed wetlands for acid mine drainage treatment
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Sediment is a source and sink of heavy metal contaminants in wetlands. In this study, sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) were used for the bioremediation of sediments from wetlands affected by acid mine drainage. The sediments were inoculated with SRB to study their influence on both the solution and...
Algerian vine canes as a good source of phenolic compounds for several in vitro biological activities
Food waste
One of the most widely cultivated crops in the world is grapevine knowing that about 77.8 million tons of grapes are produced worldwide each year . Both of vine growing, pruning, and winemaking generate a vast quantity of wastes and byproducts such as skin, seed, and canes. Grape canes include a...
Numerical and experimental analyses for performance and emissions assessment of a four-stroke engine powered by oleic acid methyl ester biofuel made from waste frying oil
Sustainable Energy
Recently, several earlier works conducted research works dedicated to replacing fossil-based fuels with environmentally friendly ones. The goal of the research is to construct a multivariate linear regression model for the attributes of a four-cylinder diesel engine fueled by biodiesel. In this...
Enhancing seafood processing wastewater treatment efficiency of an Anaerobic Membrane Bioreactor (AnMBR) system: a comparison of post-treatment methods
Water and Wastewater Treatment
An Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) was applied for treating wastewater of a seafood processing factory in Vietnam. However, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Total Phosphorus (TP), and Total Nitrogen (TN) values of the AnMBR effluent were 250.43 mg/l, 19.96 mg/l, and 62.65 mg/l, respectively, and...
Experimental study on effective utilization of industrial solid wastes in developing Ultra-High Performance Geopolymer Concrete
Circular economy
This experimental study explores the use of Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) and dolomite as alkali activated binders and copper slag as aggregate to achieve a cost-effective and sustainable Ultra-High-Performance Geopolymer Concrete (UHPGC). Several concrete compositions utilizing copper...
Strength Properties Evaluation of Composite Blocks Incorporated With Acacia Nilotica Ash
Solid Waste Management
Owing to the order of the day, we are searching for an eco-friendly binding ingredient instead of cement, which is now universally used in concrete. Almost everyone extensively exploits construction materials due to their good durability and compressive characteristics. The present study examines...
An overview of green energy sources, enhancing the environmental and economic elements of the world's sustainability
Sustainable Energy
In a transitional world, where countries strive for the achievement of better environmental quality through setting up various goals, there is a need for the substitution of fossil fuels and non-renewable resources which deteriorates the environment, with renewable energy resources which alleviates...
