Plastic pollution is a critical environmental issue with far-reaching and not yet fully explored consequences. This study uncovered significant source of plastic contamination arising from improper application management expanded polystyrene (EPS) utilised as expansion joints at construction site near the coast Antofagasta, Chile. Through meticulous field observations calculations, we estimate that staggering 82.9 million EPS spheres have potential to be released into environment 7.62 m3...
Currently, there is an expanded utilisation of lightweight construction structures in buildings, which results a low structure's thermal storage capacity the envelope due to application thermally unsuitable materials. PCMs incorporated into building components are potential alternatives manage inadequate energy structures. To provide guide for selecting and applying commercial construction, nine organic inorganic bulk materials were selected, their thermophysical properties characterised....
