The textile dyeing industry produces large volumes of wastewater during dyeing processes where the major step includes the color removal and COD removal. In the present study, the combined electrooxidation process and a novel biological degradation at high compressed gas pressure were studied. The removal of color in the real textile dye effluent was achieved by electrooxidation with Titanium Substrate Insoluble anode and titanium as cathode through generation of hypochlorite. The hypochlorite produced during the electrooxidation was removed by exposing the solution to direct sunlight. The impact of compressed atmospheric condition on the degradation of organics by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MTCC No.1201, GenBank Acc. No KC545414) was studied. The compressed gas pressure condition increases the level of dissolved gas in the liquid phase and exerts the pressure on the growing cells in the liquid phase. Interesting synchronization between the utilization of oxygen by active microbial cells and the dissolution of oxygen in the water from gas phase was observed which enhanced the bacterial degradation process. It should be mentioned here that the P. aeruginosa was grown without addition of nutrients. The compressed atmospheric pressure enhances the bacterial proliferation, EPS production and COD reduction in the electrooxidized effluent. FTIR and HPLC reveal the degradation of organics in the compressed pressure condition.

Uniaxial compression experiments were conducted on coal rock utilizing a computed tomography (CT) scanning system for real-time monitoring to explain the issue of gas volume significantly exceeding reservoir capacity during coal and gas outbursts. A percolation factor a which can make a significant contribution to the research on premonitory information of gas outbursts is introduced to determine whether percolation occurs in coal rock, and supports the outburst percolation theory. It was found that percolation probability and correlation length increase with greater porosity, and that the number of pore clusters decreases as porosity increases.

To improve the mechanical and durability properties of low liquid limit soil, an eco-friendly, all-solid, waste-based stabilizer (GSCFC) was proposed using five different industrial solid wastes: ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS), steel slag (SS), coal fly ash (CFA), flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum, and carbide slag (CS). The mechanical and durability performance of GSCFC-stabilized soil were evaluated using unconfined compressive strength (UCS), California bearing ratio (CBR), and freeze-thaw and wet-dry cycles. The Rietveld method was employed to analyze the mineral phases in the GSCFC-stabilized soil.

As hydraulic fracturing becomes increasingly prevalent in the oil and gas industry, there is a growing need to develop more cost-effective and sustainable technologies, particularly concerning the materials used. Proppants play a vital role in hydraulic fracturing by ensuring that fractures remain conductive and can withstand the pressure exerted by the surrounding strata. One key parameter for evaluating proppants is their compressive strength, especially under harsh environmental conditions.

In this study, in order to solve the problems of resource utilization of electrolytic manganese residue and the destruction of natural resources by the over-exploitation of raw materials of traditional ceramics, electrolytic manganese residue (EMR), red mud (RM), and waste soil (WS) were used to prepare self-foaming expanded ceramsite (SEC), and different firing temperatures and four groups with different mixing ratios of these three raw materials were considered. Water absorption, porosity, heavy metal ion leaching, and compressive strength in the cylinder of SEC were evaluated. The chemical composition and microscopic morphology of SEC were investigated by XRD and SEM.

Ensuring long-term wellbore integrity is critical for carbon dioxide geological storage. Ordinary Portland cement (PC) is usually used for wellbore primary cementing and plug operation, and set cement is easily corroded by acidic fluids, such as carbon dioxide, in underground high-temperature and high-pressure (HTHP) environments, resulting in a decrease in the mechanical properties and an increase in permeability. In order to achieve long-term wellbore integrity in a CO-rich environment This study introduces materials such as thermosetting vinyl ester resin (TSR), filler composite resin (FCR), and low-cost resin cement (RC).
