Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Studies of the Determination of Divalent Cadmium, Lead and Copper in the Boiling Medicinal Herbs by Stripping Voltammetry and by Atomic Absorption SpectrometryAhmed Hassan, Jamal A. MayoufCadmium, lead and copper were determined in ten Libyian boiling medicinal herbs samples by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry as well as by atomic absorption spectrometry. Voltammetric method was done at Hanging Mercury Dropping Electrode (HMDE) in Briton-Robinson buffer solution of pH ~2.1 at 25± 0.1°C. The sample preparation was carried out by boiling 2.0g of a finely pulverized plant … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,029 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBehavior of Stabilized Peat Soils in Unconfined Compression TestsWong Leong Sing, Roslan Hashim, Faisal Haji AliProblem statement: Deep stabilized peat columns were known to be economical at forming foundations to support highway embankments constructed on deep peat land. However, failure in the formation of the columns with adequate strength was often attributed to unsuitable type and insufficient dosage of binder added to the soil. Organic matter in peat was known to impede the cementing process … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,452 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSulfur Recovery from Acid Gas Using the Claus Process and High Temperature Air Combustion (HiTAC) TechnologyMohamed Sassi, Ashwani K. GuptaSulfur-bearing compounds are very detrimental to the environment and to industrial process equipment. They are often obtained or formed as a by-product of separation and thermal processing of fuels containing sulfur, such as coal, crude oil and natural gas. The two sulfur compounds, which need special attention, are: hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and sulfur dioxide (SO2). H2S is a highly corrosive … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 17,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWaste Characterization in Steel Casting and Recycling Opportunities in EuropeSilvia Fiore, Maria Chiara Zanetti, Barbara RuffinoThe wastes coming from a steel foundry located in Italy, producing about 600,000 t/y of steel slabs, are considered in this work. The plant produces about 143,000 t/y of wastes, made of furnace and ladle slags (84%), pelletized dust (8%) and oxidised shaving (8%). The waste materials have been characterised by means of particle-size and chemical analyses, and some reuse/recycle … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 7,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFoundry Wastes Reuse and Recycling in Concrete ProductionSilvia Fiore, Maria Chiara ZanettiThe industrial process of a cast iron foundry plant located in the North of Italy was analyzed in order to determine the amount and kind of produced wastes. The main fractions are core and moulding sands, muds and powders from dust abatement plants, furnace and ladle slags, and exhaust lime, making about 750-800 t/d of residues for a production of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,952 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Pulverised Fly Ash (PFA) as an Ameliorant of Lead Contaminated SoilsEdmond Gatima, Mwinyikione Mwinyihija, Ken KillhamFly Ash (FA) is obtained by electrostatic or mechanical precipitation of dust-like particles from the flue gases of furnace fired with coal or lignite at 1100 to 1400°C. About 95-99% of Fly Ash consists of oxides of Si, Al, Fe and Ca, about 0.5 to 3.5% consists of Na, P, K and S and the remainder is composed of trace … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,014 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Silica-refractory Bricks from White SandGazze AlmarahleAt present, no refractories are produced in Jordan, but large quantities are imported for use in the lining of furnaces and kilns in the metallurgical industries.The aim of this study is to initiate a program of research for production of silica-refractory bricks from local materials.The raw material, which has been used in this study was white sand. This sand contains … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 7,332 accessesView PDFCite
