Abstract—In this study, the Compressive strength of concretes made with Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS), Pulverised Fuel Ash (PFA), Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Waste Glass Powder (WGP) after they were exposed 780C (exposure duration of around 60 minutes) and then allowed to cool down gradually in the furnace for about 280 minutes at water binder ratio of 0.50 was investigated. GGBS, PFA...

Introduction: Lipid oxidation, including LDL oxidation, plays a pivotal role in development of atherosclerosis. Supplementing diet with antioxidants, such as vitamin E and walnut husk hydroalcoholic extract, may prevent LDL oxidation. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro effects of walnut husk hydroalcoholic extract on serum LDL oxidation caused by copper sulfate. Method: Blood sa...

A biomass waste, rice husk, was inspected by thermoanalytical investigation to evaluate its capability as an adsorbent medium for tar removal. The pyrolysis process has been applied to the rice husk material at different temperatures 600, 800 and 1000 °C with 20 °C/min heating rate, to investigate two topics: (1) influence of temperature on characterization of rice husk char and; (2) adsorption...

Emerging data suggest that measurement of serum IgE to peanut components can be clinically helpful and more accurate than IgE to whole peanut to predict peanut allergy. Not all studies have used prospective samples, multiple components and oral challenges. Currently, there are no data on this topic involving Italian children. 32 patients (23 males; median age 9 years) with reported history for ...

Abstract Migratory locust has been widely reported as a quality protein source. However, there are food safety problems related with the usage of insects food. In this study, migratory powder (MLP) was used supply alternative to milk (MP) in peanut-based RUTFs. Seven formulations were obtained at different substitution levels (0 – 30%) MP MLP. Pesticide residues, aflatoxins, triazine and toxic ...

The importance of removal of heavy metals from drinking water has received significant attention of researchers and decision makers across the globe. Bio-adsorbents have emerged as potential remediation materials for the removal of heavy metals and metalloids from both groundwater and surface water. Plants, algae, fungi are some of the biomass derived adsorbents which are capable of removing he...

Groundwater seems to be the most significant natural source of potable water for millions individuals. Fluoride pollution in groundwater is a big problem Tamil Nadu’s Dharmapuri area. According survey done school area, dental and skeletal fluoroses afflict almost 75% kids. There no proven or recommended cost-effective strategy lowering fluoride levels home. This study proposes efficient treatme...

Abstract In the present study, we produced SiO x /C from rice husk by NaCl sub‐micron crystal‐assisted synthesis method which can mitigate environmental degradation and hazards, simplify preparation, improve electrochemical performance. During synthesis, induces catalytic graphitization, carbon activation, amorphous silica formation. Moreover, it is only partially consumed be recrystallized reu...
