Development of Sustainable Paver Block to Suit Very Heavy Traffic Conditions Using Cassava Peel Ash

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Sustainable paver blocks were developed using cassava peel ash and silane‐treated glass fibers. The optimized mix achieved superior strength, durability, and impact resistance, meeting IS 15658:2006 standards for heavy traffic. This eco‐friendly approach highlights an effective use of agro‐waste and fiber reinforcement for sustainable infrastructure ...

Toward Sustainable Spent Cathode Recycling Technology: Failure Mechanism, Advancing Technology and Prospect

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The cathode materials from spent batteries are expected to become a resource stream rich in critical metals, drawing increasing attention to the disposal and recycling of spent lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs). However, due to current technological limitations, the recycling efficiency and environmental sustainability of LIBs still face ...

Outline of a Washing Treatment to Improve Electric Arc Furnace Slag Environmental Behavior

steel research international, Volume 97, Issue 5, Page 2541-2558, May 2026.
This study evaluates a water‐washing treatment for electric arc furnace slag to reduce the leaching of hazardous elements (Cr, Ba, Mo, and V), enabling its reuse. The process effectively decreases leachate concentrations. Using the treated slag as a substitute aggregate in concrete reduces greenhouse gases emissions by 42.5% compared to landfilling ...
