Synthesis and NO removal performance of anatase S-TiO/g-CN heterojunction formed from dye wastewater sludge.

In this study, sludges generated from Ti-based flocculation of dye wastewater were used to retrieve photoactive titania (S-TiO). It was heterojunctioned with graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) to augment photoactivity under UV/visible light irradiance. Later the as-prepared samples were utilized to remove nitrogen oxides (NO) in the atmospheric condition through photocatalysis.

Facile synthesis and characterization of anatase TiO/g-CN composites for enhanced photoactivity under UV-visible spectrum.

For the purpose of atmospheric NO removal, anatase TiO/g-CN photocatalytic composites were prepared by using a facile template-free calcination route in atmospheric conditions. Considerably fiscal NP400 and laboratory-grade melamine were used as the precursor of the composites. Additionally, samples were prepared with different wt.

Functional Properties of a Pitch-Based Carbon Fiber-Mortar Composite as a Thin Overlay for Concrete Pavement.

This experimental study investigated the utility of a pitch-based carbon fiber-mortar composite, which could replace polyacrylonitrile carbon fiber, as a thin overlay for concrete pavement. The objective was to explore the utility of the low-cost carbon fiber, which was produced via a melt-blown method, i.e.

Fracture Parameters of Cement Mortar with Different Structural Dimensions Under the Direct Tension Test.

In this paper, we measured the fracture properties of cement mortar-which is composed of sand and has a nearly constant diameter-using a direct tension test. Four double-notched mortar bar specimens with different structural dimensions were assessed. The failure load, load-crack mouth opening displacement, and elongation of the gauge length were measured under direct displacement control.

Nitrogen Oxides Mitigation Efficiency of Cementitious Materials Incorporated with TiO₂.

We explored the photocatalytic capacities of cementitious materials (cement paste and mortar) incorporating titanium dioxide (TiO₂). P-25 is a commercial TiO₂ preparation which, if incorporated into large civil buildings, is extremely expensive. It is essential to produce low-cost TiO₂.

Compressive strength, chloride permeability, and freeze-thaw resistance of MWNT concretes under different chemical treatments.

This study investigated compressive strength, chloride penetration, and freeze-thaw resistance of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) concrete. More than 100 cylindrical specimens were used to assess test variables during sensitivity observations, including water-cement ratios (0.75, 0.
