Abstract Plastics such as polyethene bags, bottles, and so on are growing increasingly common science progresses. The disposal of discarded material is a significant issue because most plastic wastes non-biodegradable unsuitable for combustion due to the emission hazardous gases. By just using controlled compaction, soil stabilization enhances engineering capabilities weak sub-soils or addition...

Quality of packaging is a key factor in consumer choice for particular product. Besides the package appearance, legal requirements demand that certain information presented to consumer. The main goal this work evaluate technical feasibility using Raspberry Pi board as platform automatic quality inspection expiration date and batch polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles. system consists captur...

Nowadays, injection stretch blow molding (ISBM) process represents the most employed technology to produce plastic bottles. An important step of this is heat conditioning stage which performed within infrared ovens by use powerful halogen lamps. Homogenizing temperature distribution along and inside preform at end one key parameters determine final quality bottle (thickness, mechanical properti...

We report observations of negatively buoyant plastics washed up on the shores a beach in southwest England association with deposits kelp. Items retrieved included polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle fragments, polyvinyl chloride toys, electrical casings, construction plastics, polycarbonate goggles, carcass tags, pot rubber, fishing float fragments and PET textiles, an upper estimate 24 t ...

Finite-Element (FE) simulations are a valuable tool to support the analysis and optimization of production processes. In order to achieve realistic simulation results, a consistent simulation set-up followed by an evaluation through experiments is crucial. Stretch Blow Molding (SBM) is a commonly applied forming method to produce thin walled bottles. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) preforms ar...

until now, there have been various studies concerning bottle-fed and breast-fed children. prevalence of allergic manifestations like eczema and asthma among bottle-fed children is much higher than healthy controls. in this study, we found that respiratory infection for breast-fed children was 3.1%, whereas in bottle-fed children it was 25.1%for gut disorders, 9.2% in breast-fed vs.13.1 % for bo...

The industrialization in Lagos State has impacted the Ibeshe watershed, as a result, lower water quality is being experienced. Hence, novel way on potential use of waste to treat watershed by synthesizing graphene oxide and incorporating it into PET bottle membranes was studied. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) embedded with 1wt%, 2wt%, 3wt% (GO) (M1, M2, M3), were prepared via non-solvent-indu...
