Variations exist in the manual preparationand delivery of cement during primary total hip arthroplasty. The incorporation of a power source may standardize cement mantle manufacturing. This study prospectively compared the use of a new power-operated polymethylmethacrylate vacuum mixing and delivery system to a commonly used manually powered industry standard. The study did not reveal a signifi...

Cement manufacturing industry is one of the carbon dioxide emitting sources besides deforestation and burning of fossil fuels. The global warming is caused by the emission of green house gases, such as CO2, to the atmosphere. Among the greenhouse gases,CO2 contributes about 65% of global warming. The global cement industry contributes about 7% of greenhouse gas emission to the earth’s atmospher...

abstract introduction. recently, the ariadent zinc phosphate cement has been introduced to market with low cost. some dentists purchase this product because of low cost and others avoid buying it because of unreliable quality. the two important properties of ideal dental cement are to have the minimum film thickness (less than 25 micron) and to have favorable compressive strength. the purpose o...

Direct emissions of air pollutants from the cement industry in China were estimated by developing a technology-based methodology using information on the proportion of cement produced from different types of kilns and the emission standards for the Chinese cement industry. Historical emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOX), carbon monoxide (CO), particulate matter (PM) and carb...

Production planning and inventory control efforts are known as the driving engines of manufacturing systems. The manufacturers, competing to survive in these days’ competitive business environment, aim to satisfy customers’ needs. This requires a precise production plan throughout the supply chain. These days, because of the increasing costs of production and distribution, especially in the cem...

___________________________________________________________________________________________ Purpose: To evaluate the basic pulmonary function parameters of cement industry workers from West Bengal. This cross-sectional study was carried out in a cement factory at Durgapur, district Burdwan on male cement industry workers and a control group of office workers. Materials and methods: Ninety worke...

In terms of absolute consumption, the cement industry occupies a front position in the ranks of energy consumed industries. The total energy costs (thermal and electrical) make up about 30 to 40 percent of the total production costs of cement. This is why efficient energy utilization has always been a matter of priority in the cement industry. Cement manufactures requires very high temperatures...
