The need to reduce carbon emissions has encouraged more research into use of biomass energy in place coal. Biomass is neutral; its can therefore lower net emissions. be upgraded a fuel similar coal by torrefaction. Different have been torrefied but there limited possible lignocellulose from animal waste. This study aims compare extent densification cow dung, corn cob and pine wood. They were dried, ground sieved. Proximate ultimate analysis was conducted. samples then at 200, 250 300 °C 10...
The use of industrial waste as a potential stabilizer marginal construction materials is cost effective. Phosphogypsum and fly ash are wastes generated in very large quantities readily available South Africa. In order to explore the stabilization vastly abundant expansive soil using larger quantity phosphogypsum modifier, composites with mixture lime‐fly ash‐phosphogypsum‐basic oxygen furnace slag were developed. However because presence radionuclide, it was necessary treat mild citric acid....
This study investigated the removal of phosphorus from waste phosphogypsum by using citric acid as a leaching reagent, evaluated potential environmental effect final product produced and provide recommendations for application developed products. A dissolution process was applied three variables were studies namely, concentration, stirring speed temperature. The results showed that Phosphorus can successfully be removed optimum conditions at concentration 0.5 M temperature 40 °C, with no...
The disposal of sludge processes accounts for 60% the total operation and 40% emissions greenhouse gas from wastewater treatment plants operations. Moreover, contains pathogenic microorganisms, organics, inorganics, trace metals emerging micropollutants, which can be a public health menace. To comply with Environmental Protection Agency standards, must stabilized detoxified before being disposed or reused. This study focuses on use biochar (adsorbent) pyrolysis removal selected (copper,...
Metals, including rare earth elements (REE), are the cornerstone of our current and future low-carbon urban infrastructure. This study looks at different waste resources contaminated materials present in setting as REE sources. Wastes other dilute sources such incineration ashes, sediments, mine tailings not only essential achieving a circular, carbon-neutral economy but may be most realistic one. E-waste, being concentrated waste, faces serious reservations regarding handling large-scale...
