Recycled CRT Panel Glass as an Energy Reducing Fluxing Body Additiive in Heavy Clay Construction Products. GLA35-005
The use of recycled glass as a heavy clay product fluxing body additive is not a new concept. CERAM Building Technology (CBT) have recently completed a major WRAP funded brick industry project (WRAP project GLA2-018) investigating the energy saving and emissions reducing benefits of using powdered recycled container glass for just such purposes. In addition CBT have undertaken smaller ...

Integrating virtual 3-D display systems into product design reviews: some insights from empirical testing
The infusion of virtual three-dimensional (3-D) display systems into the product design and development process has intrigued researchers and practitioners in recent years. However, the variety of commercially available devices has complicated system selection and use for this application. This paper presents results of a study designed to determine if virtual display systems contribute to ...

Kinetic evaluation of nitrification performance in an immobilized cell membrane bioreactor
High rate membrane bioreactor (MBR) systems operated at extremely low sludge ages (superfast membrane bioreactors (SFMBRs)) are inefficient to achieve nitrogen removal, due to insufficient retention time for nitrifiers. Moreover, frequent chemical cleaning is required due to high biomass flux. This study aims to satisfy the nitrification in SFMBRs by using sponge as carriers, leading to the ...

International joint venture of two giants in the CRT industry: strategy analysis using system dynamics
The past decade has seen a dramatic rise in the number international joint ventures (IJV) and a great majority of them fail. Although the research literature continues to expand, there is an imbalance to the attention paid to the process and operational management side of IJVs. We begin this article with a survey of the literature and we segment the research stream into the life cycle phases of ...

A study on PbO in CRT funnel glass at high–temperature condition
Glasses from the end–of–life Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs) represent a pressing environmental problem, especially the funnel glass containing high lead concentration. To avoid lead contamination and re–utilise it, it is of great importance to study the separation process of lead contained in the funnel glass. In this study, the microstructure of scrap funnel glass and molten funnel glass were analysed ...

Modal analysis of annual runoff volume and sediment load in the Yangtze river-lake system for the period 1956–2013
This study focuses on detecting trends in annual runoff volume and sediment load in the Yangtze river-lake system. Times series of annual runoff volume and sediment load at 19 hydrological gauging stations for the period 1956–2013 were collected. Based on the Mann-Kendall test at the 1% significance level, annual sediment loads in the Yangtze River, the Dongting Lake and the Poyang Lake were ...

E-waste assessment methodology and validation in India
An attempt has been made to establish an approach and a methodology to quantify electronic waste (e-waste) in India. The study was limited to personal computers (PCs) and televisions (TVs) within the state boundaries of Delhi and in selected areas in the National Capital Region (NCR). Material flow analysis was used to establish an e-waste trade value chain, where cathode ray tubes (CRTs) were ...

Materials recovery from waste cathode ray tubes (CRTs)
Executive summary ObjectivesThis is the second interim report of this project being carried out by ICER with support from Glass Technology Services. The project is examining potential markets for waste CRT glass. In this second stage five potential applications have been investigated, three for screen glass which does not contain lead and two for lead-containing funnel glass or mixed glass. The ...

CPSC lead in products testing
Recent changes to the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC) program on allowable levels of lead in products have prompted new rounds of testing. As a Manufacturer (or if you are anywhere in the Supply Chain for any product sold in the United States), you are responsible for monitoring and reporting the lead content in your product. There are threshold values of allowable lead in products as ...

Top Liner in Schijndel Project - Case Study
You can do a lot with 400,000 m2 of space. Really a lot. So it is no surprise that this former landfill has been the subject of several different zoning plans. In 2016, the last section of the landfill was sealed with Trisoplast, ready for a new start. From a mud run to a villa Mountain bike races, national cyclocross championships, running races and the construction of luxury villas; the ...

What is an Inspection Camera
Inspection cameras are a new generation of survey tools that are becoming more and more popular among professionals that need to explore and fix hard-to-reach areas. They save a great amount of time and money both for contractors and their clients, as they allow to get to the places you can’t normally see without having to tear apart the whole area. Instead you can just run one of these ...

Project - TV-Target - Eco-Efficient Treatment of TV - Sets and Monitors
Introduction Currently about 2 billion TV-sets exist in the world which come back for recycling within the next 15-20 years. If we consider these huge amounts of WEEE there is a need for eco-efficient recycling technologies. Electronic recycling industry must meet future demands on industrial efficiency and cost reduction. Therefore, the dismantling process of TV-sets and monitors must be ...

Overview of the climate action reserve: opportunities for landfill operators
There is an active and growing market for carbon credits in the U.S., and landfill owners/ operators need to be aware of the opportunities that this may present for their businesses. Though we do not yet have a nationwide cap-and-trade system, there is an active voluntary market for carbon credits (millions of dollars and millions of credits were traded in 2009) and momentum is gaining behind ...

Effective e-waste recycling revolves around the 4Ls
Effective E-waste Recycling Revolves around 4Ls1. Legislation (Effective implementation)2. Liability (Effective awareness campaigns to familiarize stakeholders)3. Logistic (Collection & Warehousing)4. Liquidity (Money & Material)An effective e-waste recycling is possible only when we effectively address the above 4 areas of concern. The time has come to seriously work on a separate ...

Used to Useful
Thanks to Mother Earth for giving us millions of tons of natural resources for our need & greed. After extraction & converting these resources in to products for our requirement, we forget to pay attention to recycle the used products but continue to extract afresh as if, nature has no right to say no. In the process, we attract natural calamities (natural recycling) to balance the ...

Proper disposal
In December 2017, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a final rule prohibiting entities from asserting claims of confidential business information (CBI) for certain documents related to the export, import, and transit of hazardous waste. Manufacturers that have historically relied on assertions of CBI should be aware of this change. The new rule is discussed below. Background ...
