a-Hemihydrate Gypsum from Flue Gas Desulphurization Gypsum

open access: yesMaterials Science, 2013
In this work, properties of sulphate technogenic raw material – flue gas desulphurization (FGD) gypsum have been investigated in order to obtain α-hemihydrate gypsum as gypsum binding material. FGD gypsum is produced as a by-product during the process of desulphurization of exhaust gas emitted in power stations heated by fuel containing sulphur. It has

Selective Optical Properties of Cement for Enhanced Radiative Cooling and Energy‐Efficient Construction Materials

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Cement phases are good materials for radiative cooling thanks to the selective emissivity in IR ATW. Cement powders have high reflectance of solar radiation which reduces the thermal losses. The onset of the absorption curves is defined by bound excitons. Sulfates have higher radiated powers and reflectance than calcium silicates.

Experimental and Theoretical Investigation on the Progressive Breaking Law of Thick and Hard Rock Strata in Deep Mining

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This work reveals the “C‐Y,” double “Y,” “π,” and “Y” fracture modes of thick, hard strata and their progressive breaking process (O‐F‐R/S mode), providing a theoretical basis for controlling strong ground pressure in deep mining. ABSTRACT In response to the dynamic hazards caused by the fracture of thick‐hard strata in deep mining, this study ...
