Glass dust waste as fine aggregate replacement material in concrete
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
Glass dust waste creates chronic environmental problems, mainly due to the inconsistency of waste glass streams. Recycling is the best solution for the crisis resulting from huge volumes of wastes and includes economic and ...
Characterization of rambutan seed (Nephelium lappaceum) as natural adsorbent for wastewater treatment
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Activated carbons were prepared from rambutan seed with impregnation of zinc chloride as dehydrating agent. In order to find its characteristics, different zinc chloride to rambutan seed ratio (0.5 and 2) and activation ...
A comparison study of two electrical transmission tower towards wind load using STAAD.PRO
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
The electrical transmission lines play a vital role in the operation of electric power system. Therefore, the objective of this research is to investigate and study the behavior of steel transmission towers under wind load ...
Fire resistance of biomass ash panels used for internal partitions in buildings
(Malaysian Technical Universities Network (MTUN), 2012-11-20)
constructions. This study develop new products made of by biomass ash from industry waste for the internal partitions panel. Modifying the internal partition panel of wall with addition of biomass ash (EFB) and clay soils ...
A study on Hydrogen Sulphide as potential tracer in landfill gas monitoring
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills are one of the major source of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) which is the offensive odours potentially creating annoyance in adjacent communities. This project focuses on H2S emission from ...
Applicability of nano zero valent iron (nZVI) in sono-Fenton process
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2014)
Fenton process is one of the advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) used to remove complex organic pollutants in wastewater. In this study, instead of iron sulfate (FeSO4), nano zero valent iron (nZVI) was used as a major ...
Properties of lightweight concrete composites with mixture of fly ash and concrete sludge aggregate
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
Lightweight foamed concrete is a concrete made by cement slurry mixed with foam so that foamed concrete that is much lighter than conventional concrete can be produced. The objectives of this study is to develop optimal ...
Fire resistance of biomass ash panels used for internal partitions in buildings
(Elsevier B.V., 2013)
This study was to develop fire-resistant panels with a high biomass ash ratio from the combustion of EFB at an industrial scale to be used in different fire-resistant internal partitions in buildings and industrial ...
Performance of lightweight foamed concrete with replacement of concrete sludge aggregate as coarse aggregate
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
The use of waste materials in construction industry is very essential in order to reduce the depletion of natural sources. Thus, this study is focused to determine the performance of lightweight foamed concrete made with ...
Use of plastic waste (high density polyethylene) in concrete mixture as aggregate replacement
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Rapid industrial development causes serious problem all over the world such as depletion of natural aggregates and creates enormous amount of waste material from construction and demolition activities. Quantities of polymer ...
