Physico-Mechanical Performance of Waste Plant Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites for Automotive Applications
Abstract: To maximize the interfacial bond strength, it is necessary to investigate the direct relationship between the degree of fiber-matrix adhesion and the mechanical and fracture behavior of composites. In this work, the strength of the interfacial bond between polypropylene (PP) and waste plant fiber (Dharose plant fiber, DF) that have been subjected to ultraviolet radiation (UV) was established. By using hot press molding, unidirectional composites of PP with dharose plant …

Fluoride Distribution and Related Health Problems
Abstract: Fluoride is one of the very few chemicals that cause significant effects in people depending upon their concentration. Although present naturally in soil, water and air, fluoride consumption occurs largely through water. Fluoride intake at low concentration is known to cause beneficial effects on teeth, however at high concentrations; it may give rise to a number of adverse effects. These range from mild dental fluorosis to crippling skeletal fluorosis as …

A Review on Adverse Effects of Herbicides and Pesticides on Environment
Abstract: Pesticides can contaminate soil, water, turf, and other vegetation. Insecticides are generally the most acutely toxic class of pesticides, but herbicides can also pose risks to non-target organisms. The environment includes all of the living and non-living things that surround us, including the air, water, plants, soil and wildlife. Pesticides can be helpful in dealing with pests in our environment such as controlling invasive plant species that threaten native habitats. …

Metal-Organic Frameworks, Synthesis, Characterization and Environmental Applications
Abstract: Clean energy gases such as H2 and CH4 are considered as promising candidates for the replacement of traditional fossil fuels. While gas storage is a difficult issue to challenge, the existence of toxic pollutant gases has posed a more thought-provoking concern. Recently, considerable research efforts have been devoted to developing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) for the effective and energy-efficient separation, storage, or capture of the related gases. In this article, we …

Nanocoating and Electrospraying Techniques Used for Corrosion Mitigation of Aluminum in Nitrogen dioxide Environment
Abstract: Nitrogen gas absorbs moist air to produce nitric acid. It develops acidic medium for aluminum. It forms a corrosion cell on the surface of aluminum. The formation of corrosion cell is written as: Al|Al+3||H+|H2 thus Corrosion reactions accelerate on aluminum surface and Al is oxidized into Al+3 and the H+ ions is reduced into H2. This acid produces various forms of corrosion in aluminum like galvanic, pitting, stress, crevice, blistering, …

Electronic Waste Vs Environmental Sustainability: Global Ultimatum to Society
Abstract: We often suppose that the risks of electronic waste solely have an effect on us which come back directlywith it and are in the main a consequence of inappropriate handling. Obviously, this can be right andthere are many studies that proof the risks ensuing from direct contact with harmful materialscomparable to lead, metal or chromium. The studies together alert us concerning however differentelements, let's say brominated flame retardants generate toxic …

Deforestation: Causes and Consequences of the Global Crisis
Abstract: Climate change is unavoidable due to the dynamic character of global ecosystems. The reasons of these environmental changes are both man-made and natural. Human activities have always had an impact on the environment. As economic activity and population expansion have risen to the point that they can no longer be disregarded or seen in isolation, the consequences of mankind just on environment could no longer be ignored or examined in …

Newly developed closed ecological cycle for solving environmental problems and obtaining high-quality biofuels
Abstract: Stagnant "green" zones of freshwater lakes, resulting from the excessive reproduction of phytoplankton in sunlit, stagnant waters, present a grave environmental hazard by causing the demise of phytoplankton and fish, and releasing hydrogen sulfide, rendering the water unsuitable for agricultural purposes. In this regard, the development of a closed ecological cycle, including the concentration of phytoplankton from the "green water" of the lake, which allows using most of the phytoplanktonconcentrate …

Hydrothermal Gasification of Selected Foods for Sustainable Energy Generation using aspen plus
Abstract: Fossil fuels are becoming scarce and depleting at an alarming rate. To address the ever- increasing energy demand and the worrying deterioration of the climatic condition, researchers are obligated to pursue alternate feedstock for sustainable energy generation that promotes carbon neutrality. The search leads to lignocellulosic materials like unprocessed food wastes. These are sizing quantities of agro-waste that seem promising for the production of bioenergy, especially in tropical and subtropical …

Use of Pesticides leads to Environmental degradation
Abstract: Pesticides are extensively used for agriculture but residues can reach aquaticecosystems, frequently. They are transferred from pytoplankton to fish and human, ultimately. Pyrethroid insecticides are utilized in place of organochlorine,organophosphorus and carbonate to control different forms of pests and raise yield. Pyrethroid intoxication causes cellular damage and increases freeradicals, which leads to lipid peroxidation and, ultimately, oxidative stress.To reduce damage to environment and biologicalsystems by pesticides should be played attention …
