This work demonstrates upcycling of waste biomass together with waste brine water to functional biochar materials with applications in both supercapacitors and adsorbent materials. This approach aligns with the principles of the circular economy, where waste streams are transformed into valuable resources, contributing to a more sustainable and ...

Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Comparative Toxicity of Fly Ash: An In Vitro Study
Fly ash produced during coal combustion is one of the major sources of air and water pollution, but the data on the impact of micrometer-size fly ash particles on human cells is still incomplete. Fly ash samples were collected from several electric power

Optimization of Magnesium Potassium Phosphate Cements Using Ultrafine Fly Ash and Fly Ash
The effect of ultrafine fly ash (UFA) and fly ash (FA) on the physical properties, phase assemblage, and microstructure of magnesium potassium phosphate cement (MKPC) was investigated. This study revealed that the UFA addition does not affect the calorimetry hydration peak associated with MKPC formation when normalized to the reactive components (MgO ...

Temperature‐dependent shear behavior and constitutive model of the rock–concrete interface
Shear tests were conducted to investigate the temperature‐dependent shear behavior of the rock–concrete interface, highlighting the interaction between the surrounding rock and the lining during tunnel fires. Under experimental conditions, concrete exhibited greater temperature sensitivity than rock, with the shear fracture surface transitioning from ...

The Mechanical Activation of Fly Ash
AbstractOne of the main options in looking for the new building materials is using of wastes from an industry as a replacement of the existing ingredient. This way is used in the concrete production too. Basic effort is to find a suitable replacement for economically and ecologically unfavorable cement by another component or components.

Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation
This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

FTIR spectroscopic investigation of alkali-activated fly ash: Atest study
Fly ash is byproduct of thermal power plants. Millions tons of fly ash is produced globally. Fly ash is disposed partly in landfills but it could also be released into the atmosphere in the past.
