In order to reduce carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions and produce an eco-friendly construction material, a type of concrete that uses a minimal amount of cement, yet still retains equivalent properties to ordinary cement concrete, has been developed and studied all over the world. Hwangtoh, a type of red clay broadly deposited around the world, has traditionally been considered an eco-friendly cons...

Information on the flows of specific polymers through anthroposphere forms basis any assessment environmental implications plastic. This work presents a dynamic probabilistic material flow analysis seven commodity thermoplastics: low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), expanded (EPS), polyvinylchloride (PVC), and terephthalate (PET). The exami...

The majority of waste plastics currently produced are either landfilled or incinerated. Plastics do not readily degrade and toxic elements can be leached from the landfill. Combustion of waste plastics can generate environmentally hazardous air pollutants such as dioxins/furans, as well as undesirable carbon dioxide. Consequently, cost effective ways of recycling the increasing amounts of gener...

According to the Ministry of Environment (KLH), Indonesia's average population produces 189 thousand tons garbage per day. Of this amount, 15% is plastic waste or 28.4 The famous handling 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle). Reduce reducing purchase use goods made from plastic, especially disposable items. Reuse repeated plastic-based Recycle recycling plastic. method used in design study SolidWorks so...

Waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) bottles (WPBs) are fast becoming an environmental nuisance, and their valorization to carbon anodes could be a sustainable method manage this waste also develop cheap high-performance materials for lithium (Li)-ion batteries (LIBs). Carbonaceous derived from WPBs were prepared using ionothermal carbonization (ITC) in choline chloride–urea deep eutectic s...

The increase in cost of carbonaceous materials, as well significant costs industrial waste, have prompted scientists to use alternative raw materials components the construction industry. This study investigated suitability waste products from coke industry modifying agents for polymer bitumen. by-product coking reaches a high level silicon and is called silicon-containing additive (SCA), compo...

Thermoplastic polymers are one of the synthetic materials produced with high tonnage in world and so omnipresent industries everyday life. One most important polymeric wastes is polyethylene terephthalate (PET), disposal used PET bottles an unsolved environmental problem, many efforts have been made to find practical solutions solve it. In this present work, nanofibrous membranes were from wast...

Abstract Implementing plastic waste in construction materials is a sustainable disposal method to overcome pollution. The current study aims optimize the integration of cement bricks regarding their thermomechanical properties order develop an eco-friendly building material. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) partially substituted with different ratios (0, 2.5...

Abstract The vast amount of not-recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle waste is a serious threat to the environment. In order utilize waste, PET ultrafiltration membranes were prepared using as raw material by phase inversion technique. Low molecular weight glycol (PEG 400) was used additive for membranes. resin also membrane compare properties from and those resin. that showed simila...

Recycling polyethylene terephthalate (r-PET) bottles is a sustainable solution for reducing the accumulation of r-PET in landfills. The primary goal this study to determine viability combining fibers derived from waste and date palm (DPF) produce hybrid unsaturated polyester (UP)-based composites. Hand lay-up was used make UP/r-PET/DPF composites, which had 10%, 20%, 30% by weight, with equal w...
