The granite stone is the most widely used in the construction and granite slurry is generated through cutting and polishing of the stone. Granite slurry is waste material consisting of very fine powder and creats disposal and environmental problems in worldwide today. Disposal of granite waste leads to health hazards like respiratory and allergy problems to the people around. It also causes the...

in recent decades, seizure prediction caused a lot of research in both signal processing and neuroscience field. the researches tried to enhance the conventional seizure prediction algorithms such that rate of the false alarms be appropriately small so that seizures can be predicted according to clinical standards. up to now none of the proposed algorithms have been sufficiently adequate. in th...

1. NATIONAL FRAMEWORK FOR MANAGEMENT AND REGULATION OF RADIOACTIVE WASTE AND DECOMMISSIONING 1.1 National framework 1.1.1 Overview of national policy The Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) of the Korean government developed the “National Radioactive Waste Management Policy” at the 249 th meeting held on September 30, 1998. The policy stipulates that the site selection process for radioactive waste ...

The relationship between social stratification and municipal solid waste generation remains uncertain under current rapid urbanization. Based on a multi-object spatial sampling technique, we selected 191 households in a rapidly urbanizing area of Xiamen, China. The selected communities were classified into three types: work-unit, transitional, and commercial communities in the context of housin...

landfilling is an ultimate fate of any municipal solid waste management system, and it is a no alternative choice for disposal of municipal solid waste. the major environmental concerns associated with landfilling of wastes are related to the leachate generation and eventual discharge of leachate into the environment. leachate quality is formed due to aerobic and anaerobic processes taking plac...

-----------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT---------------------------------------------------------To plan effectively and successfully manage the solid wastes, proper quantification and characterization are essential. Recovery from solid waste is an important aspect where as disposal is only the final option. Recovery of methane from landfills is rarely practiced in In...

a large portion of municipal waste, disposed in landfills, is organic in nature. this organicmaterial starts decomposing soon after the disposal in landfills. the decomposition leads to the generation ofin situ leachate, and this leachate can contain substantial amounts of contaminants. under arid conditions,leachate is solely generated by waste decomposition, as little input of external water ...

The food processing industry is very diverse. The diversity of the industry is apparent not only by the vast array of final products but also by the waste generated. Food processing waste, though not considered to be a health hazard, can be formidable in the quantities generated. Even the smallest seasonal plant is capable of producing waste loads equivalent to a population of 15,000-25,000 peo...

There is a concern that mismanagement of medical waste in developing countries may be a significant risk factor for disease transmission. Quantitative estimation of medical waste generation is needed to estimate the potential risk and as a basis for any waste management plan. Dhaka City, the capital of Bangladesh, is an example of a major city in a developing country where there has been no rig...
