Construction and Demolition Waste Recycling through Conventional Jig, Air Jig, and Sensor-Based Sorting: A Comparison

Reuse and Recycling of Construction and Demolition Waste

JIG: Jazz Improvisation Generator

This article presents JIG, a system for improvisation on jazz ballads. It was described previously in a Master’s Thesis [4]. JIG generates so called ’formulaic’ improvisations. It uses constraints, in combination with probability-driven randomness to generate note-attributes. In this way, numerous different improvisations can be generated on a single song. JIG has been incorporated in SaxEx, a ...

chemical recycling of polycarbonate waste using conventional heating and microwave assisted method

پلی کربنات یکی از پلاستیکهای مهمی است که به صورت گسترده در تولید لوحهای فشرده، قطعات رایانه، مواد ساختمانی و غیره مورد استفاده قرار می گیرد. این پلیمر بصورت عمده از تراکم مونومر بیس فنولa (bpa) و کربنیل کلرید یا دی متیل کربنات ها بدست می آید. در سالهای اخیر بازیافت شیمیایی پلی کربنات بیشتر مورد توجه بوده است. بازیافت شیمیایی پلی کربنات برای بدست آوردن مواد اولیه آن با روشهای متفاوتی مانند تجزی...

Construction and demolition waste indicators.

The construction industry is one of the biggest and most active sectors of the European Union (EU), consuming more raw materials and energy than any other economic activity. Furthermore, construction waste is the commonest waste produced in the EU. Current EU legislation sets out to implement construction and demolition waste (CDW) prevention and recycling measures. However it lacks tools to ac...

Rapid Manufacturing with Fdm in Jig & Fixture Construction

The weight of a device is an ergonomic criterion as well. Devices that are carried and operated by people may not exceed a weight of 5 kg (11 lbs.). Previously, this was achieved by using lowdensity materials, such as aluminum or polyamide. An additional weight reduction, however, can be obtained through the use of ABS plastics and the FDM process. The density differences of ABS and polyamide d...
