Construction industry around the world is well-known as a massive contributor of waste materials and environmental impacts. Among types generated by this are concrete, plastic, wood, ceramic, asbestos. These materials, in general, chemically fused through various manufacturing processes before being transported for construction usage. Addition chemical compounds such arsenic, copper, cyanide, n...

Traffic accidents sometimes lead to the spread of hazardous compounds to the environment. Accidental spills of hazardous compounds on roads in the vicinity of vulnerable objects such as water supplies pose a serious threat to water quality and have to be assessed. This study compared three different assessment methods, electrical resistivity measurements, analytical flow calculations, and 1D an...

This paper considers a multi-depot heterogeneous vehicle routing problem (MDHVRP) with time windows, which is very crucial for hazardous materials transportation. For this reason, we formalize as multi-objective MDHVRP optimization model, where the actual load dependent risk of transportation considered. To solve problem, propose hybrid evolutionary algorithm (HMOEA) and two-stage (TSA). In add...

A critical barrier to the routine use of nanomaterials is the tedious, expensive means of their synthesis. Microreaction technology takes advantage of the large surface area-to-volume ratios within microchannel structures to accelerate heat and mass transport. This accelerated transport allows for rapid changes in reaction temperatures and concentrations leading to more uniform heating and mixi...
