Thane creek is one of the most important ecosystems around Mumbai, and the mangroves surrounding the ecosystem form the vital green lung for the residents. It is also an important feeding and breeding ground for fishes. In recent past man has misused this ecosystem by way of releasing sewage, dumping solid waste, etc. and has succeeded in chocking the ecosystem. The results of present investiga...

Waste materials such as waste tire rubber (WTR), cooking oil (WCO), bio-oils, engine (WEO), and other oils have been the subject of various scientific studies in sustainable research field. The current environmental concerns identified to protect natural resources reuse materials. Accordingly, this work reviews use recycled mixed with (waste oil, oil) bio-oils that can be extracted from rejuven...

The increasing environmental concern about waste materials and the necessity of improving the performance of asphalt mixtures prompted the study of incorporating different waste materials in conventional bitumen. The reuse of waste materials can present benefits at an environmental and economic level, and some wastes can be used to improve the pavement performance. Thus, the purpose of this stu...

Peat is a notoriously problematic soil having high-water content, large void ratio, and weak engineering properties. Thus, it needs to be treated before utilization withstand structural stress. On the other hand, amount of waste tires increases exponentially due high demand for vehicles. Therefore, they need sustainably recovered recycled rather than disposed or incinerated. This study aimed st...

D. Dobrotă, C. Iancu, Engineering Faculty, “Constantin Brâncuşi” University of Târgu-Jiu, Romania This paper presents the results of the main changes in the chemical composition of the material, and changes in its hardness. The changes in terms of chemical composition refer primarily to changes in concentration of sulfur and carbon, and in terms of hardness material change there can be noticed ...

A large amount of medical waste is produced during disaster relief, posing a potential hazard to the habitat and the environment. A comprehensive understanding of the composition and characteristics of medical waste that requires management is one of the most basic steps in the development of a plan for medical waste management. Unfortunately, limited reliable information is available in the op...
