Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAdsorption Study of Electric Arc Furnace Slag for the Removal of Manganese from SolutionC. L. Beh, Luqman Chuah, Thomas S.Y. Choong et al.Problem statement: Steel making slag from Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) is an abundant by-product in Malaysia steel making industry. It has potential to be used for heavy metal removal from contaminated water or waste water. Approach: The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristic and behavior of manganese removal by using EAF slag for efficient metal removal. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 8,113 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsViability of Using Local Waste Materials in the Production of High-Performance and Self-Compacting ConcreteSayed Mohamad Soleimani, Abdel Rahman Alaqqad, Ali Behbehani et al.The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of using local waste materials on the properties of fresh and hardened high performance and self-compacting concrete. Crushed ceramic products and steel slag from electric-arc furnaces were used as partial replacements of traditional concrete raw materials in the production of self-compacting and high-performance concrete, which were obtained from local factories … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2020 · 8,080 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicrobial Activities as Affected by Peat Dryness and AmeliorantEdi Husen, Fahmuddin AgusProblem statement: Acceleration of microbial activities and thus of CO2 emission in drained peat soils used for agriculture, is of the main environmental concern. The objectives of this study were to (i) examine microbial activities in peat samples treated with different levels of water contents and ameliorants and (ii) evaluate the relative contribution of microbial groups to peat respiration. Approach: … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 29 Sep 2011 · 7,548 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemediation of Heavy Metals by using Industrial Waste by Products in Acid Mine DrainageNuur Hani Mohammed, Mustapha Atta, Wan Zuhairi Wan YaacubAcid Mine Drainage (AMD) is one of the main important problems being combated today. Laboratory tank experiments were conducted to evaluate the use of industry waste to adsorb and control the mobilization of metals from contaminated acid mine water. The main physical conditions such as pH and treatment performance are displayed. The solution of acid mine were sampled from the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 18 Dec 2017 · 7,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIndustrial Waste-an Economical Approach for Adsorption of Heavy Metals from Ground WaterMargherita Pettinato, Debolina Mukherjee, Silvestro Andreoli et al.A by product from steel industry mainly known as blast furnace slag is a waste product which was tested for the removal of As(III), from ground water. Steel slag is a commercial waste material mainly consisting of SiO2, Al2O3 and CaO, the former two chemicals being major components of zeolites and the latter a major component of Hydroxyapatite (HAP). Arsenic … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 10 Apr 2015 · 8,159 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 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 · 7,055 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 · 7,956 accessesView PDFCite
