A critical review of membranes made of nanofibres polymeric materials for application of treating oily wastewater

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page 1375-1399, March 2025.
Abstract Oily wastewater poses a significant threat to human health and the environment, especially when it contains emulsified oil. Traditional treatment methods often fail to address this type of wastewater effectively. Therefore, developing advanced treatment methods to make such water suitable for various applications has become a pressing issue ...

Development of One-Part Alkali-Activated Mortar Using Foundry Waste Sand

Advances in Civil Engineering
Foundry waste sand (FWS) refers to sand that is no longer useful after being utilized in metal casting processes. This sand is produced at a rate of around 0.6 tons per 1 ton of foundry industry manufactured and is typically discarded in landfills.

Manufacturing of Bricks by using Waste Foundry Sand

International Journal of Advanced Research in Science, Communication and Technology
The foundry is an industrial sector where various iron, scrap steel, and ferroalloys are melted down in arc furnaces or cupolas, shaped in sand, ceramic, or metal moulds, and the cast, steel, nodular, and tempered foundry products needed in industry are produced as raw or processed materials. Especially in establishments such as factories and workshops

Waste Foundry sand Mineralogical Characterisation: The Impact of Cast Alloy, Casting Temperature and Molding Additive on the Nature Waste Foundry Sand

Engineering Journal, 2017
Abstract: The metal casting industry discharges huge volumes of waste foundry sand yearly. It was estimated to be 250 thousand tons of spent silica foundry sand for the existing 200 casting facilities in South Africa. Even though, establish documents exist in regards to the foundry sand composition, few well documented theories are available in regards
