Minimizing food wastes and finding a second life use for industrial residuals have become some of the top priorities modern society. This work considers spent eggs mussels shells, as well marble dust, raw sources to develop nanoparticles involving renewable resources in both their preparation adoption technological applications. Specifically, Ca/Mg-based were obtained by evaporating such physic...

Geopolymer concrete, also known as an earth-friendly has been under continuous study due to its environmental benefits and a sustainable alternative conventional concrete construction. The supplies of many source materials, such fly ash (FA) or slag (SG), produce geopolymer (GPC) may be limited; however, quarry rock dust (QRD) wastes (limestone, dolomite, silica powders) formed by crushing rock...

introduction dust storms, one type of dust event, are in most cases the result of turbulent winds, including convective haboobs, which raise large quantities of dust from desert surfaces and reduce visibility to less than 1 km. this dust reaches concentrations in excess of 6000 mg m3 in severe events. the major dust source regions are areas of arid and hyper-arid, with mean annual rainfalls of ...

To improve the magnesia removal effect of collophane and increase P2O5 grade phosphorus concentrate, fatty acid collector mixed with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was used as compound in reverse flotation for system. Solution surface tension measurement, Zeta potential test infrared spectrum analysis were conducted to analyze intensified dolomite removal. The results showed that under conditions...

Laser removal of biodeteriogen layers warrants detailed studies due to the advantages it brings with respect to mechanical elimination or the use of biocides. We have investigated elimination of biological crusts on dolomite stones from heritage sites in central Spain. The samples were colonized by epilithic crustose lichens of different species, such as Caloplaca sp. and Verrucaria nigrescens....

in this study the effect of nano meter size zro2 particles on the microstructure, densification and hydration resistance of magnesite –dolomite refractories was investigated. 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 wt. % zro2 particles that were added to magnesite –dolomite refractories containing 35 wt. % cao. the hydration resistance was measured by change in the weight of specimens after 72 h at 25℃ and 95% relati...
