The article provides comprehensive overview of the application CFRP in various building structural elements and their characteristics properties, such fatigue corrosion resistance, stiffness high strength, incorporation temperature factors. advantages disadvantages current trends prospects for construction sector are discussed. addition, compares studies...
The aim of this paper was to assess groundwater quality in a landfill and waste management site, with special regard levels organic pollution indicators: chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical (BOD), total carbon (TOC). Analysis specific indicators conducted for piezometers located the area Radiowo landfill, composting plant facilities adjacent landfill. article discusses temporal spatial changes selected indicators. Based on results monitoring, several maps COD, BOD TOC areal...
Landfills have been identified as potential sources of heavy metal pollution the environment. The municipal solid waste Łubna landfill is one largest landfills in Poland. Its impact on (Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu, and Cr) groundwater, soil plants has thoroughly evaluated. Elevated levels contamination not recorded vicinity landfill. concentrations metals from were similar to geochemical background for forest farming soils central European goldenrod (Solidago virgaurea L.) grasses (Poaceae) did exceed...
This study investigated operational and structural health monitoring (SHM) as well damage evaluations for building structures. The involved detection the assessment of buildings by placing sensors assuming weak areas, considered situations self-monitoring. From this perspective, advanced sensor technology data acquisition techniques can systematically monitor a in real time. Furthermore, structure’s response behavior were observed recorded to predict building. In paper, we discuss real-time...
Globally, solar energy has become a major contributor to the rapid adoption of renewable energy. Significant savings have resulted from widespread utilization in industrial, residential, and commercial divisions. This review article comprises research conducted over past 15 years (2008–2023), utilizing comprehensive collection 163 references. Significantly, considerable focus is directed towards period 2020 2023, encompassing an extensive investigation into latest developments panel...
This comprehensive review focuses on the integration of intelligent technologies, such as Internet Things (IoT), Artificial intelligence (AI), and Nondestructive Testing (NDT), in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) field civil engineering. The article discusses technologies SHM for residential, commercial, industrial, historical, special buildings, nuclear power plants (NPPs). With incorporation there have been remarkable advancements SHM, a crucial aspect infrastructure safety, reliability,...
The behaviour of natural and artificial slopes is controlled by their thermo-hydro-mechanical conditions soil–vegetation–atmosphere interaction. Porewater pressure changes within a slope related to variable meteorological settings have been shown be able induce soil erosion, shrinkage–swelling cracking, thus leading an overall decrease the available strength with depth and, ultimately, progressive collapse. In terms numerical modelling, stability analysis partially saturated complex problem...
In assessing the impact of climate change on infrastructure, it is essential to consider interactions between atmosphere, vegetation and near-surface soil. This paper presents an overview these processes, focusing recent advances from literature those made by members COST Action TU1202 – Impacts engineered slopes for infrastructure. Climate- vegetation-driven processes (suction generation, erosion, desiccation cracking, freeze–thaw effects) are expected in incidence severity, which will...
Landfill leachates are potentially harmful to the environment and human health. The objective of this study was characterize in order analyze whether a relationship exists between stored waste composition leachates, detect possible leakages pollutants into environment. To achieve these objectives, field data, Global Positioning System data physico-chemical were used. Biological tests becoming increasingly popular determining leachate toxicity; therefore, two toxicity performed with seeds...
The use of geotextile filters has been a common application in geo-environmental and geotechnical engineering for decades. purpose the present paper is to assess influence artificial physical clogging cyclic water flow on permeability characteristics nonwoven geotextiles used commonly filter drainage systems. Despite many studies examining behavior soil-geosynthetics, mechanism not fully understood yet remains incompletely defined. Artificial tests have conducted according procedure created...
Mobilizing industry and transforming industrial sectors to a circular economy (CE) is one of the key areas activities in European Green Deal (EGD)—the newest strategy economic growth Union (EU). In CE, raw materials that can be recovered from various waste streams play role, therefore, recommendations for their management were developed, both at national level. Poland, material recovery sector strategic (key industries) described several documents determining further directions country. This...
Abstract This study investigates human health risks associated with heavy metals (HMs) occurrence in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills. For testing of selected MSW landfills steps were involved, including site characterization, soil sampling and chemical testing, statistical analysis, as well risk assessment, carcinogenic non-carcinogenic effects. the Polish landfill (Radiowo) average HMs concentrations found following order: Zn (52.74 mg/kg DM) > Pb (28.32 Cu (12.14 Ni (4.50 Cd (3.49...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the mobility copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) their impact on properties bentonites unfrozen water content. Limited research in area necessitates further analysis prevent negative effects metal interactions bentonite effectiveness. Tests involved American (SWy-3, Stx-1b) Slovak (BSvk) samples with Zn or Cu ion exchange. Sequential extraction performed using Community Bureau Reference (BCR) method. Elemental content analyzed via inductively coupled plasma...
Sorption characteristics of nitrogen compounds is necessary in ascertaining their fate the soil-water environment. This paper presents a laboratory “batch” experiment for determining sorption parameters ammonium Three agricultural soils (silt loam, and sand) with different contents clay fraction, significantly affecting range adsorption contaminants on surface solid particles, were chosen as research material. Considering composition nitrate (a commonly used fertilizer Poland), solutions...
Covid-19 is proving to be an unprecedented disaster for human health, social contacts and the economy worldwide. It evident that SARS-CoV-2 may spread through municipal solid waste (MSW), if collected, bagged, handled, transported or disposed of inappropriately. Under stress placed by current pandemic on sanitary performance across all MSW management (MSWM) chains, this industry needs re-examine its infrastructure resilience with respect processes, from identification, classification,...
