BEHAVIOR OF COMBINATION OF COCONUT FIBER AND RECRON FIBER IN CONCRETE

International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology, 2015
Concrete is strong in compression, as aggregate eff iciently carries the compression load. However, it is weak in tension as the cement holding the aggregate in place can crack, al lowing the structure to fail. This weakness had bee n adjusted over many decades by using a system of reinforcing bars (reba r) to create reinforced concrete; so that ...

Engineering Biochar‐Derived Functional Materials for High‐Performance Supercapacitors: Design Principles, Mechanisms, and Scalable Strategies

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biochar has emerged as a useful and adaptable source of carbon for supercapacitor electrodes. Its value comes from the way biomass chemistry, thermal conversion, and activation conditions shape the resulting pore network, surface groups, and degree of carbon ordering.

The Application of Coconut Fiber as Dissipative Silencer

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2017
Heat ventilation air conditioning system (HVAC) is one of the ducting systems that broadly applied in the building. There are HVAC silencers in the market, however the sound absorptive material commonly used is mineral wool. In this research study, a sound absorptive material made of coconut fiber was tested to identify its performance as a potential ...

Does the Application Flow Rate of Nutrient Solutions Prepared in Brackish Water Affect Coriander Production?

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flow rates for applying nutrient solutions in hydroponic systems are empirically known, yet uncertainties remain regarding whether brackish water affects the optimal flow rate and, consequently, biomass production and allocation. This study evaluated whether variations in application flow rate affect coriander biomass when brackish water is ...

Wood walls insulated with coconut fiber

DYNA, 2019
Solid wood gives the shape to walls, while panels are the coating and they are nailed or screwed to the wood sections. In the cavities between the wood elements and the panels, a thermal and acoustic insulator must be added. Unfortunately, almost all of the currently used insulators (mineral wool, expanded polystyrene, polyurethane) are not ...
