Biomass can be converted into a range of different end-products; and when combined with carbon capture storage (CCS), these processes provide negative CO 2 emissions. conversion technologies differ in terms costs, system efficiency value, e.g. services provided, market demand product price. The aim this study is to comparatively assess combination BECCS pathways identify the applications which ...

Purpose: Inability of ceramists to formulate glazes locally and the cost importing had resulted closure many cottage ceramic industries in Nigeria. The study, physicochemical characterization cullet glaze, was conducted with aim recycling for glazing earthen wares intention conduct elemental analysis waste glass glaze recipes, determine its artistic usage, lessen from environment harness chemic...

Kaolin is removed from underground seams in the mining area to a processing area, where it is sliced, dried, and pulverised to make the finished product. A study was undertaken to determine the dust concentrations in various work areas and to assess the prevalence of radiographic and pulmonary function abnormalities in 65 workers at a Georgia kaolin mine. Respirable dust concentrations were hig...

AIM In this study, Epithelial Growth Factor Receptor and Platelet Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 were localised to investigate the healing effects of a flavonoid-rich fraction of M. paradisiaca fruit in the gastric corpus of Wistar rats following aspirin-induced gastric lesion. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mature, unripe fruits of M. paradisiaca were peeled; air dried, pulverised, extracted wi...

This paper evaluates the speciation and partitioning of mercury in two Spanish pulverised coal combustion power plants (PP1 and PP2), equipped with wet limestone-based flue gas desulphurisation facilities (FGD) operating with forced oxidation and re-circulation of FGD water streams. These plants are fed with coal (PP1) and coal/pet-coke blends (PP2) with different mercury contents. The behaviou...

The abuse of esters of natural androgenic steroids in cattle fattening and sports is hard to control via routine urine testing. The esters are rapidly hydrolysed in vivo into substances which are also endogenously present in urine. In veterinary control strange findings of 17beta-testosterone and 17alpha-testosterone in urine are often ignored because of the lack of statistically sound referenc...

Pulverised coal injection (PCI) is used in ironmaking to replace expensive and energy intensive coke with coal, reducing overall costs greenhouse gas emissions. As the making process removes some of sulphur present utilisation PCI results admission greater levels into blast furnace. The increased could potentially lead an increase usage related hot metal removal processes. In increasingly volat...

Cement replacement materials can not only benefit the workability of concrete but also improve its compressive strength. Reducing cement content lower CO2 emissions to mitigate impact construction industry on environment and energy consumption. This paper aims predict strength (CS) embodied carbon (EC) using machine learning (ML) algorithms, i.e., deep neural network (DNN), support vector regre...
