Waste generated due to various industrial activities are dumped as landfill posing serious environmental complications. Pollution control waste has become one of concern across the globe. This study discusses foundry sand and coconut shell, two byproducts manufacturing agriculture sectors. The most efficient use these components is include them into concrete itself, either a partial substitute ...

In sand casting, Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) printing by using Poly Lactic Acid (PLA) filament is one of the innovative foundry technologies being adopted to substitute traditional pattern making. Several literatures have reported influence process parameters such as raster angle and print speed on some mechanical properties FDM-printed, PLA-prototypes used in other applications. This study...

Due to recycling of metals, most foundries have considered themselves as a part of the green technology before the term “green’’ was even coined. But, actually, the foundry industry handles large quantities of processed waste materials and has the potential to emit a large quantity of carbon dioxide and other pollution in atmosphere. This immense pressure not only forcing foundry industries to ...

Diisocyanates are a group of chemically reactive agents, which are used in the production of coatings, adhesives, polyurethane foams, and parts for the automotive industry and as curing agents for cores in the foundry industry. Dermal and inhalation exposure to methylene bisphenyl isocyanate (MDI) is associated with respiratory sensitization and occupational asthma. However, limited research ha...
