THERMODYNAMICS OF HEAVY METALS (Hg2+, Cd2+, Fe2+AND Ni2+) ADSORPTION USING BOILER FLY ASH
Abstract: The effect of temperature on the adsorption of heavy metals, Hg2+, Cd2+, Fe2+ and Ni2+ using unactivated boiler fly ash (an agricultural waste) was investigated. The results showed that Hg2+ and Cd2+ ions were mostly affected by increase in temperature because their sorption rate decreased at high temperature. At the temperature of 273 K and 383 K, the amount of Hg2+ adsorbed (mg/g) by the unactivated boiler fly ash was …

Study of Shear Strength Behaviour of Soil With Kaolinite Mixture
Abstract: An experimental testing program was undertaken for evaluating the effect of kaolinite on the strength properties of locally available sand and soil. Strength depends principally upon the content of (1) water, (2) clastic materials and (3) plastic materials. Soils are primarily of two types (1) cohesionless soils in which the strength this produced mainly by the friction of clastic particles against one another, and (2) cohesive soils in which the …

Review Study on re-strengthening of reinforced concrete circular column using steel strips
Abstract: This technique fixes thin steel plates i.e. steel encasement or tie plates i.e. steel cage around the column with steel angles at each corner, clamped to the concrete and welded together. Adequate tightening of the jackets can be ensured by means of heat tensioning. The use of steel jackets can enhance the shear strength of columns considerably. However, due to their low flexural stiffness they typically have poor confinement efficiency …
