The use of plastics has increased significantly with consequent rise in the generation of wastes. Microplastics (MPs) with particle size <5 mm are produced in natural terrestrial habitats by weathering of the discarded ...

The paper evaluates the possibility of developing open-air cured geopolymer concrete using the mixture of two metallurgical wastes such as ferrochrome ash (FCA) as the primary and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) ...

Earlier studies indicated that the reactive MgO reduces shrinkage crack and porosity, and accelerates the hydration and strength development. Ferrochrome ash (FCA), a waste generated from ferrochrome industry, is a rich ...

This study evaluates the efficiency of Phosphate solubilizing bacteria isolated from Effluent Treatment Plant sludge of Paradeep Phosphate Limited, Odisha, India, to solubilize rock phosphate (RP) and the mechanism and ...

The present work reports on the deposition of coatings of marble dust, an ornamental stone waste, on mild steel using the high-velocity oxy-fuel spraying route and then on its erosion behavior. Coating deposition is carried ...
