One third of the artichoke production is used in industrial processes, where up to 70% 85% of the initial raw material is transformed into solid wastes. For an adequate management of these wastes, it is necessary to know their water sorption properties, because physical, chemical and biological changes which occur during their storage depend on water-solid interactions. The objectives of this w...

The goal of sustainable management of municipal solid waste (MSW), integrated planning required by financial support to control the situation. Life cycle assessment, categorisation, recycling of wastes and proper landfilling are required.

Waste is a continually growing problem at global and regional as well local levels. Solid wastes arise from human animal activities that are normally discarded useless or unwanted. In other words, solid may be defined the organic inorganic waste materials produced by various of society which have lost their value to first user. As result rapid increase in production consumption, urban rejects g...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of a CO, treatment on the pH and soluble concentrations of inorganic contaminants in alkaline fly ash and spent shale solid wastes. A two-level (low and high), three-variable (moisture, time and pressure) statistical experiment was used to determine optimum CO, treatment conditions. Treated and untreated samples were subjected to solubili...

The activity concentration of Ra, Th and K was determined in solid and liquid samples collected from the TSP Fertilizer Factory, Chittagong, Bangladesh. A total of 18 samples of seven different kinds (including liquid and solid wastes) were collected and analyzed by gamma ray spectrometry technique using a high purity germanium (HPGe) detector of 40% relative efficiency. The analysis of the liq...

background: production of solid waste is the result of the human’s different activities that today has changed a lot in comparison to the past due to the changing life styles and pervasive expansion. in isfahan province lots of wastes are produced daily. due to the importance of the waste and its recycling, the purpose is determining the production scopes of different wastes in order to find a ...
