Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring the Reuse Potential of Chemical Sludge from Textile Wastewater Treatment Plants in India-A Hazardous WasteHema Patel, Suneel PandeyProblem statement: This study was conducted to explore the reuse potential of the chemical sludge (considered as hazardous waste as per Indian Government Hazardous Waste Management Rules) generated from combined effluent treatment in textile clusters. These textile clusters mainly cover the cotton dyeing and printing operations. Approach: Therefore, treatability studies of chemical sludge were conducted using solidification/stabilization treatment to examine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,547 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 · 7,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValorization of Drinking Water Treatment Sludges as Raw Materials to Produce Concrete and MortarR.M. Ramirez Zamora, O. Ceron Alfaro, N. Cabirol et al.The purpose of this work was to assess the technical feasibility to valorize sludges, generated and stored at the Los Berros drinking water facility (PPLB), as raw material to produce building products (mortar and concrete) for the construction industry. The experimental study was divided into three stages: 1) sampling and characterization of PPLB sludges to determine their potential as raw … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,583 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrain Size Distribution Characteristics Variation in Oily Contaminated Sandy Soils Due to Long Term Aging Effect in Al-Ahmadi Field at KuwaitHumoud Melfi Aldaihani, Fahad A. Alotaibi, Farraj F. Al-ajmiAlmost three decades on, the negative environmental impacts arising from the burning of over 600 oil wells in Kuwait following the 1991 Gulf War are still evident. At the time of the incident, the Kuwaiti desert region became polluted with hydrocarbon, with a number of ‘oil lakes’ forming, causing critical harm to local land. This paper discusses the shifts in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 10 · 23 Nov 2018 · 8,412 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStress Analysis of an Artificial Human Elbow Joint: Application of Finite Element AnalysisStephen K. ArmahThe elbow joint is frequently affected by two kinds of arthritis (degenerative arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis) following some kind of injuries. There have been efforts since the eighteenth century by various individuals and organizations in modeling permanent implants for the elbow joint, but some of the prostheses have been disappointing because of lack of understanding of the biomechanics of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2018 · 9,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSetting Shrinkage Characteristics of Methyl Methacrylate-Modified Vinyl Ester Polymer ConcreteKi-Bong Choi, Seung-Ho Min, Kyu-Seok YeonThis study evaluated the setting shrinkage characteristics of Methyl Methacrylate (MMA)-modified vinyl ester polymer concrete with different curing ages, MMA contents and curing temperatures. Results have shown that most of the setting shrinkage developed within 24 h after curing initiation. It was also found that an increase in MMA content led to an almost linear decrease in setting shrinkage, indicating … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 17 May 2016 · 8,306 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Recycled and Waste Materials in Various Construction ApplicationsJohnny Bolden, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Ellie FiniMore production equals more waste, more waste creates environmental concerns of toxic threat. An economical viable solution to this problem should include utilization of waste materials for new products which in turn minimize the heavy burden on the nation’s landfills. Recycling of waste construction materials saves natural resources, saves energy, reduces solid waste, reduces air and water pollutants and reduces … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2013 · 24,574 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Ethics in Governing Recycled Material Styrofoam for Building Human HabitatRavichandran Moorthy, Kartini Aboo Talib Khalid, Suhana SaadStyrofoam is extensively used in food packaging businesses throughout the world. Its light weight makes it a favorite food package for entrepreneurs in food businesses. However, unlike its content, the food, which decomposed easily after some time, Styrofoam remains un-decomposed due to its oil-based structure. This study discusses the prospects of re-utilization of Styrofoam as environmentally friendly recycled material.
