this research paper presents the use of wasteful supplementary cementitious materials like fly ash and silica fume to conserve the cement used in concrete. the cement industry is one of the major producers of greenhouse gases and an energy user. in this study, portland cement was used as a basic cementitious material. fly ash and silica fume were used as the cement replacements by weight. the r...

In this research work, the parameters affecting the settling velocity within the thickeners were studied by introducing an equivalent shape factor. Several thickener feed samples of different densities including copper, lead and zinc, and coal were prepared. The settling tests were performed on the samples, and the corresponding settling curves were plotted. Using the linear regression analysis...
