In this study, the ability of adsorbing Cd2+ ions of Plesiomonas shigelloides was discovered. Herein, the method and mechanisms of adsorbing Cd2+ ions from aqueous solutions is discussed. The cadmium-resistant bacterium was collected from the sediment of Harbin section of the Songhua River in China, and then isolated, identified and characterized. The isolated strain was identified as Plesiomon...

Since the sustainability of concrete became a very important property in past decades, 15 mixes self-compacting (SCC), as well control mixes, were examined to find out effect replacing natural aggregates with recycled blue glass (RBG) waste on rheological properties and permeability concrete. For this purpose, 3 series SCCs mixed: 1st group replaced aggregate (NFA) fine (RFWBG), 2nd coarse (NCA...

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) and Polypropylene (PP) is mostly used materials for making items like water bottles, food containers many other plastic products in all fields of life. Due to the scarcity natural aggregates concrete, it required go alternative material, this type one replacement fine aggregate concrete. An objective paper study feasibility recycled PET PP waste be as a building...

In this study, the use of expanded polystyrene and perlite as lightweight aggregates for preparation geopolymers is tested. The geopolymers’ performance was evaluated through physical, mechanical thermal testing. Polypropylene fibers were used reinforcement agents, while long-term durability assessed though repeated wet–dry freeze–thaw cycles sorptivity tests. results showed that introduction i...

The development of radically new types corrosion-resistant cement composites is nowadays compulsory in view the continuous increase concrete consumption combined with intrinsically defective nature concrete. Among various additives being employed technology, carbon nanomaterials have emerged as extremely powerful components capable remarkably enhancing nano- and microstructures well properties ...

The process of how soil moisture profiles evolve into the and reach root zone could be estimated by solving appropriate strong nonlinear Richards’ equation. nonlinearity equation occurs because diffusivity D is generally an exponential function water content. In this work, boundary conditions physical problem are considered fuzzy for various reasons (e.g., machine impression, human errors, etc....

The manufacture of concrete using recycled aggregates (RCA) is an alternative used to reduce the exploitation natural resources and landfilling construction waste. This paper discusses suitability producing structural be exposed XC1-XC4 environment employing different percentages fine RCA (FRCA) coarse (CRCA) classified as type A. Two experimental phases were conducted in which 300 kg cement/m3...

The South African construction industry is currently faced with mounting waste and overflowing landfills. Consequently, the feasibility of using clay masonry rubble brick (CMRB) as a partial replacement for natural coarse aggregate in concrete was investigated. Three mixes were made water-to-binder (w/b) ratios 0.60. A control mix well containing 50% 100 % Andesite CMRB tested. compressive stre...

Recycling trash and protecting natural resources are two of the many benefits using copper slag as a fine aggregate in concrete building. However, stakeholders need proven research output to build trust initiate or enhance use such industrial waste buildings. This study evaluated self-compacting concrete’s fresh hardened characteristics (SCC) comprising (CSA). For this purpose, six mixes were p...

The durability of concrete incorporating cactus extract as a bio-admixture is the focus this study, which first its kind in literature. Cactus-infused novel type with exceptional fluidity, strength, and durability. In project, was employed an addition to M25(3626 psi) concrete, designed Indian standards. Cactus (1% 9% total weight) used replace water mix. order look into properties experiments ...
