Ba2MgSi2O7:Dy3+ (BMSD) white light emitting phosphor was sintered by combustion synthesis route. The phase formation was confirmed with the help of XRD characterization. The results of the XRD study obtained for this phosphor revealed its monoclinic crystal symmetry with a space g...
Despite waste management within the industry contains a vital impact on each economic and environmental issues; the present level of construction waste management performance in Bangladesh is according as comparatively low. To improve any variety of management performance, it's n...
The stability of polymer-based organic solar cells is a crucial factor for the commercialization of solar cells. Testing of organic-inorganic nanostructures in polymer solar cells (PSCs) would be a better option to minimize the drawbacks due to the short lifetime. In this study,...
Introduction: Low cost refractory mixes of adequate resistance to molten glass attack is required for frit furnace lining, but when the corrosion behaviour of alumino-silicate type refractories are studied, kaolin is often neglected. Meanwhile clay is cheap in the study area and...
Abundantly available cassava peels waste was used to prepare porous activated carbon using a nontoxic activating agent, sodium thiosulphate (Na2S2O3). The activation was done under nitrogen flow at 8000C. The resulting porous carbon showed good surface area of 306 m2g-1. The supe...
Purpose: The aim of this study was the evaluation of different plastic optical materials and determination of their behaviour in front of the eye. The study was not for clinical screening but mainly for material determination purposes, where the contrast sensitivity function is i...
Large quantities of non-biodegradable waste effluents pollutants discharged globally have remained very challenging to adsorption removal or photodegradation treatment. They introduce a significant decrease in water flux, expensive treatment costs, and some with carcinogenic pote...
Residual stresses are those stresses that remain in an object (in particular, in a welded component) even in the absence of external loading or thermal gradients. In some cases, residual stresses result in significant plastic deformation, leading to warping and distortion of an o...
The development of expired drugs into directly applicable corrosion inhibitors for metals in acidic media, will help not only help to solve the global problem of corrosion but will also offer legal and profitable outlets for extending the cradle to grave life of those materials a...
This paper will presents the results of research to study to demonstrate the structural performance integrity of ferrocement composite semicircular lightweight panels for roof construction. This proposed panels are lighter in weight relative to the conventional reinforced concret...
In the world of nanotechnology, a green approach for the synthesis of nanoparticles is becoming a focal point of modern research. Being environmentally friendly, biosynthesized nanoparticles are very stable and exhibit variations in their size, shape, strength, surface area and o...

Electric-arc furnace dust (EAFD) is an industrial waste, which generated through the volatilization of metals during reduced iron and melting of scrap during electric arc furnaces process. Utilization of EAFD consisting of hazardous metals such as Pb, Cd, Cr or Zn using the techn...
The work index of Faya clay in Faya Village, Plateau State, Nigeria was determined for effective communition design using Berry and Bruce method. Samples of Faya clay were collected from three veins on the mine. The samples were homogenized, crushed and ground and further sample...
Ado-Ekiti is known for abundance of moulding sands used for building, construction and foundry works. The effects of moulding sands on some metal castings was studied in this work. Four sand samples were taken from four river locations (Oke-Ureje, Omisanjanna, Odo-Ayo, and Ogbese...
A high surface area mesoporous Cu2O embedded on TiO2 (Cu2O-TiO2) aerogel was prepared and used in photocatalytic splitting of water under simulated solar light irradiation. Highly efficient hydrogen production was achieved over 3 wt% Cu2O-modified TiO2 aerogel photocatalyst with...
