Solid Fuels Technology and Applications.
This Special Issue presents the latest state-of-the-art research on solid fuels technology with dedicated, focused research papers. There are a variety of topics to choose from among the seven published re-search works to bring you up to date with the current trends in academia and industry.
Climate Change, Carbon Capture, Storage and CO2 Mineralisation Technologies
This Special Issue delivered 16 scientific papers, with the aim of exploring the application of carbon capture and storage technologies for mitigating the effects of climate change. Special emphasis has been placed on mineral carbonation techniques that combine innovative applications to emerging problems and needs. The aim of this Special Issue is to contribute to improved knowledge of the ongoing research regarding climate change and CCS technological applications, focusing on carbon capture and storage practices. Climate change is a global issue that is interrelated with the energy and petroleum industry.
Geotechnical Safety and Risk IV
Geotechnical Safety and Risk IV contains the contributions presented at the 4th International Symposium on Geotechnical Safety and Risk (4th ISGSR, Hong Kong, 4-6 December 2013), which was organised under the auspices of the Geotechnical Safety Network (GEOSNet), TC304 on Engineering Practice of Risk Assessment and Management and TC205 on Safety an
Proceedings of the Business Innovation and Engineering Conference (BIEC 2022)
This is an open access book. Business Innovation and Engineering Conference 2022 brings together contributions from students and scientists dealing with different aspects of business innovation and management, and we believe that there is also an equal number of promising study projects and prospectus results. The conference will be held at School of Business, IPB University, Bogor, Indonesia at August 11-12, 2022. This conference is held with the goals of: 1. Exchanging information on recent research issues related to business innovation, and engineering in Southeast Asia and the world in general; 2. Expanding international cooperation network; 3. Generating internationally reputable and nationally accredited publications; and 4. Initiating Business Innovation and Engineering (BIEC) as a communication forum related to business innovation, and engineering in Southeast Asia.
Sustainable Construction Materials and Technologies
The construction materials industry is a major user of the world’s resources. While enormous progress has been made towards sustainability, the scope and opportunities for improvements are significant. To further the effort for sustainable development, a conference on Sustainable Construction Materials and Technologies was held at Coventry University, Coventry, U.K., from June 11th - 13th, 2007, to highlight case studies and research on new and innovative ways of achieving sustainability of construction materials and technologies. This book presents selected, important contributions made at the conference. Over 190 papers from over 45 countries were accepted for presentation at the confere...
Handbook of Fly Ash
The drive to develop more sustainable materials has made fly ash a valuable raw material in many different applications. Comprehensive and authoritative, Handbook of Fly Ash highlights the latest research efforts to develop the properties of fly ash to maximum utility while safeguarding the environment. This book takes an interdisciplinary approach to the research into the classification and compositions of various types of fly ash, such as bottom ash and boiler slag, special classes of fly ash, and their sources around the globe. This is followed by a discussion of fly ash-reinforced composites, such as elastomer-based composites and metal matrix composites. This book also covers a wide ran...
Evaluación mundial de la contaminación del suelo
En la UNEA3, celebrada en Nairobi en diciembre de 2017, los países coincidieron en la urgencia de abordar el problema causado por la contaminación del suelo y se adoptó la resolución ministerial "Gestión de la contaminación del suelo para lograr el desarrollo sostenible" para abordar la contaminación del suelo a nivel mundial. La principal petición de la resolución es emprender las medidas necesarias a nivel nacional y regional para conocer el alcance de la contaminación del suelo en sus territorios. La resolución solicita que se evalúen el alcance y las tendencias futuras de la contaminación del suelo, los riesgos y las repercusiones de la contaminación del suelo en la salud, ...
Karst Hydrogeology and Geomorphology
Originally published in 1989, Karst Geomorphology and Hydrology became the leading textbook on karst studies. This new textbook has been substantially revised and updated. The first half of the book is a systematic presentation of the dissolution kinetics, chemical equilibria and physical flow laws relating to karst environments. It includes details of the many environmental factors that complicate their chemical evolution, with a critique of measurement of karst erosion rates. The second half of the book looks at the classification system for cave systems and the influence of climate and climatic change on karst development. The book ends with chapters on karst water resource management and...
Foundations on Rock
This second edition of the successful Foundations on Rock presents an up-to-date practical reference book describing current engineering practice in the investigation, design and construction of foundations on rock. An extra chapter on Tension Foundations has been included. The methods set out are readily applicable to high rise buildings, bridges, dams and structures subject to uplift and turning loads. Foundations on Rock differs from the many texts and handbooks on soil foundations in that it focuses on the effect of geology on the stability and settlement of rock foundations. While the intact rock may be strong, defects in the rock such as faults, joints and cavities, and the deterioration of the rock with time, will have a significant effect on foundation performance. Methods of detecting such defects are described, and their implications for foundation design and treatment are elaborated.
Geological Carbon Storage
Geological Carbon Storage Subsurface Seals and Caprock Integrity Seals and caprocks are an essential component of subsurface hydrogeological systems, guiding the movement and entrapment of hydrocarbon and other fluids. Geological Carbon Storage: Subsurface Seals and Caprock Integrity offers a survey of the wealth of recent scientific work on caprock integrity with a focus on the geological controls of permanent and safe carbon dioxide storage, and the commercial deployment of geological carbon storage. Volume highlights include: Low-permeability rock characterization from the pore scale to the core scale Flow and transport properties of low-permeability rocks Fundamentals of fracture generat...
