Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEstimated Greenhouse Gases Emissions from Mobile and Stationary Sources in the Limestone and Basalt Rock Mining in ThailandDubsok Atima, Kittipongvises SuthiratMineral processing can become more environmentally sustainable by integrating practices that reduce all environmental impact of mining operations. Along with pollution problems, global climate change is presently one of the most important environment concerns. This research aimed to identify all potential sources and also compare the net emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) from the limestone and basalt rock mining operations … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 5 · 26 Oct 2016 · 8,294 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBasalt as Pozzolana and Filler in Ordinary Portland CementH. El-Didamony, I.M. Helmy, Randa M. Osman, A.M. HabboudPozzolana is defined as a siliceous or siliceous and aluminous materials which in itself possess little or no cementing properties, but will in a finally divided form and in the presence of moisture react with Ca(OH)2 at ordinary temperature to form compound possessing cementious properties. Pozzolanic cement contains Portland cement as one of their main components in addition to natural … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 24 Jun 2015 · 7,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluence of Oil Contamination on Geotechnical Properties of Basaltic Residual SoilZulfahmi Ali Rahman, Umar Hamzah, Mohd. Raihan Taha et al.Problem statement: Oil contamination due to accidental spillage or leakage brings hefty damage to the environments. It percolates steadily into subsurface environments and contaminates the soil and water system. Hydrocarbon contamination has not just affected the quality of the soil but will also alter the physical properties of oil-contaminated soil. Approach: This study presented the geotechnical properties of oil-contaminated soils … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 10,265 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGreen Building: Use of Pozzolanic Material to Reduce CO2 Emissions and Energy Conservation in the Production of Composite Pozzolanic CementAbd EL-Rahman Ragab, Shimaa Younis, Mohamed Sayed Mohamed MoawadThe effect of pozzolanic material on the mechanical properties and microstructure of clinker Portland cement mortar was studied. The main objective of this research is to formulate a Pozzolanic blended cement mortar with high mechanical properties to reduce CO2 emissions and energy conservation uses in the clinker industry. The present investigation aims to study the effect of fresh basalt on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 9 Jun 2022 · 6,278 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPetrology and Origin of Ultramfic Xenoliths from North Eastern Jordan VolcanoesHassan Al-Fugha, Mazen AL-AmairehThe distribution of major, minor and trace elements in the Cenozoic alkali basalt from north-eastern Jordan indicates a homogeneous lava flow from a mantle source. These basaltic rocks contain abundant upper mantle xenoliths (spinal lherzolite, harzburgile and olivine- websterite). Theses xenoliths contain olivine, orthopyroxne, clinoporoxene and a few amounts of spinal. Their mineral assemblages, chemistry, texture and major elements abundances … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 7,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeochemical, Petrographic and Magnetic Characteristics of Spinel Lherzolite Mantle Xenoliths from Jabal Remah Volcano, JordanAhmad Al-Malabeh, Tayel El-Hasan, Mahdi LataifehPeridotite ultramafic mantle xenoliths are occurring abundantly in the Harrat Al-Shaam basaltic province. Jabal Remah volcano is located in the Jordanian parts of the plateau and contains considerable amounts of mantle xenoliths within its pyroclastic successions. Mineralogical investigations show that the xenoliths are mostly of the spinel lherzolite type, which are characterized by a protogranular texture. Modally, the xenoliths are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,183 accessesView PDFCite
