Performance of Periwinkle Shell Ash Blended Cement Concrete Exposed to Magnesium Sulphate [PDF]
The study examined the compressive strength of periwinkle shell ash (PSA) blended cement concrete in magnesium sulphate medium. Specimens were prepared from designed characteristics strength of 25 MPa. The cement replacement with PSA ranged between 0 and

Behaviour of periwinkle shell ash blended cement concrete in sulphuric acid environment
This paper presents the influence of sulphuric acid on compressive strength of concrete made with cement blended with periwinkle shell ash (PSA). The cement component was replaced with PSA at 0 %, 5 %, 10 %, 15 % and 20 %. Concrete mix ratio of 1:2:4 and

HETEROGENEOUS PHOTOCATALYTIC DEGRADATION OF PHENOL IN AQUEOUS SUSPENSION OF PERIWINKLE SHELL ASH CATALYST IN THE PRESENCE OF UV FROM SUNLIGHT [PDF]
The batch photocatalytic degradation of phenol in aqueous solution wasinvestigated using periwinkle shell ash (PSA) as photocatalyst. Chemical characterisation of the PSA revealed that the major oxides present were calcium oxide (CaO), silica (SiO2) and ...

POTENTIAL APPLICATION OF A LOCALLY SOURCED PHOTOCATALYST FOR THE PHOTOCATALYTIC DECOLOURISATION OF METHYL ORANGE IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION [PDF]
Periwinkle shell ash (PSA) was investigated for its photocatalytic properties in decolourising methyl orange in aqueous solution. The effects of irradiation time, initial dye concentration and PSA dosage on the decolourisation process were investigated ...

Photoadsorption and reaction mechanism of periwinkle shell ash in the removal of hazardous dye
Combined adsorption and photocatalysis synergy was explored in this research because the porosity of activated carbon and hydroxyl radicals' generation are the main drivers of the adsorption and photodecomposition efficiency of dyes.
