Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiodegradation of Low-Density Polyethylene Film by UV Irradiated and Non-Irradiated Pseudomonas Aeruginosa D5Olusola Adeoye Oluwole, Temitayo Omotunde Olowomofe, Ikeoluwa Gloria OlaniyanLow-density polyethylene (LDPE) constitutes 60% of total plastic production, and non-degradable polyethylene carry bags are the most common type of solid waste found. Their recalcitrance in the environment is thus a major concern for environmentalists. This study investigated the potential of Ultraviolet (UV) induced mutation in enhancing biodegradation of LDPE films by two diesel degrading bacteria, Alcaligenes faecalis D4 and … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 8 Oct 2025 · 3,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Mold Cavity Pressure of Self-Clamping Molds During Solid Tire ManufacturingSadeep Amantha Mawathage, Jayashingha Arachchige Indika Sanjeewa, Nirosh Dilruk JayaweeraThis study investigates the mold cavity pressure in self-clamping molds used for solid tire manufacturing, a sector where Sri Lanka is a leading global supplier. Our research presents a detailed investigation into the mold cavity pressure of self-clamping molds used in solid tire production. By integrating experimental data, the effects of critical parameters such as clamp bolt torque, final tire … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 2 Oct 2025 · 2,963 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCircular Economy Modeling for Waste and Energy Management in A Developing Country: The Case of Greater Beirut AreaAbbas El Toufaili, Dario Pozzetto, Elio Padoano et al.Lebanon's energy system depends largely on imported fuels. Lebanon presented its commitment to increase by 30% its share of Renewable Energies (RE) by 2030. GBA lacks an integrated Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) system. The waste composition in the Greater Beirut Area (GBA) is made of 52.2% organic waste which can be exploited for the production of green Hydrogen (H2) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 22 Nov 2024 · 5,210 accessesView PDFCite
