Verification of Utilizing Nanowaste (Glass Waste and Fly Ash) as an Alternative to Nanosilica in Epoxy

Utilizing Coal Fly Ash and Recycled Glass in Developing Green Concrete Materials

Identifying Glass Compositions in Fly Ash

In this study, four Class F fly ashes were studied with a scanning electron microscope; the glassy phases were identified and their compositions quantified using point compositional analysis with k-means clustering and multispectral image analysis. The results showed that while the bulk oxide contents of the fly ashes were different, the four fly ashes had somewhat similar glassy phase composit...

An Experimental Study on Utilization of Slag and Fly Ash as an Alternative Cementitious Binder

This study investigates the utilization of slag and fly ash (FA) as alternative cementitious binder. Combination of 60% slag and 40% FA was used as new binder. In addition, for activation of slag and FA, sodium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide was used as a chemical activator by 5% weight of the binder, separately. Water to binder and sand to binder ratios was kept 0.55 and 3 in mortar preparati...

Mechanical Properties of Epoxy Resin – Fly Ash Composite

There has been significant increase in use of glass fibre reinforced composites as structural materials in naval mine countermeasure surface ships. Sea mines when detonated emit underwater shock waves, which could impart severe loading to naval ship structure; there are attempts to model the response of a ship structure to this loading. For the model to be accurate & useful material property da...

Fly Ash Characteristics From Waste-to-Energy Facilities and Processes For Ash Stabilization

Despite increased efforts to prevent, reduce, reuse and recycle, the appropriate management of municipal solid waste (MSW) remains a major environmental issue. Currently, Waste-to-Energy (WTE) facilities produce clean renewable energy through the combustion of municipal solid waste in specially designed power plants equipped with the most state-of-the-art pollution control equipment. Neverthele...
