SUMMARY: The disposal of fly ashes from municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) is becoming a growing environmental issue in Europe. In order to avoid landfilling and recycle MSWI fly ashes, initiatives aim to recycle them in cement production. While numerous studies have analyzed the impact of MSWI ashes application on the concrete quality and the leaching of potentially hazardous heavy meta...

Cement kiln dust produced in a local cement production plant in Saudi Arabia, along with fly ash resulting from combustion of heavy fuel oil in a local power generation plant were utilized as waste materials blended with ordinary Portland cement at various ratios. These blends were tested for their water requirements for normal consistency, initial setting times, and compression and tensile str...

nowadays, wind erosion and dust have become environmental problems, not only in desertareas, but throughout the entire country, which have imposed many costs on the country budget.combating wind erosion in many deserts using adapted plants and oil mulch has 40 years history.but the widespread use of petroleum mulches in addition to environmental problems is noteconomically justified due to the ...

In this work, the objects of research are cement asphalt concrete obtained on basis binder and bitumen emulsion, using as mineral additives, waste from thermal power plants, in form fuel ash various types. The analysis foreign domestic literature topic is carried out. order to reduce amount inorganic (cement) consumed, well modification organic (bitumen emulsion), ashes two producers, CHP-2 CHP...

Two major concerns for cement factories are environmental aspects and production costs. The number of cement factories is increasing in Iran which from an environmental point of view is not favorable. Different pozzolans such as brick, potted clay, volcanic rocks, sedimentary rocks and rice bran were used in the cement produced by Lamerd factory in the south of Iran. Among these additives, ...

This paper presents a cement plant simulator designed on LabVIEW platform. It generates process data and electrical parameters for all the lines of workshops in the cement industry. The simulated design is universal and applicable to all kinds of cement plants. Client-server architecture is established and the generated parameters are communicated to Matrikon OPC client. Single Line Diagram of ...

A system dynamics model based on the dynamic interactions among a number of system components is developed to estimate CO(2) emissions from the cement industry in India. The CO(2) emissions are projected to reach 396.89 million tonnes by the year 2020 if the existing cement making technological options are followed. Policy options of population growth stabilisation, energy conservation and stru...

About 673 small-scale asbestos mining and milling facilities and 33 large - scale asbestos manufacturing plants, (17 asbestos-cement product manufacturing plants and 16 other than asbestos-cement product plants) are situated in India. The present study reveals the exposure of commercial asbestos (chrysotile) in the occupational as well as ambient air environment of the asbestos-cement (AC) shee...

Article history: Received: 22.7.2016. Received in revised form: 2.11.2016. Accepted: 3.11.2016. As part of a wider feasibility study on the possible reuse potential of Croatian sewage sludge ash, ash has been produced by laboratory incineration of sewage sludge from two Croatian wastewater treatment plants. The Croatian sewage sludge ash was tested for soluble heavy metals according to EN 12457...

Chromium is one of the 25 most widespread elements in the Earth’s crust and occurs as an indelible non-volatile trace element in raw materials used in cement clinker production (clay, limestone and iron additives in particular). Chromium in raw materials mentioned above is mainly in form of trivalent chromium. Naturally occurring chromium (III) is not initially harmful, since it is chemically s...
