Aluminium Recovery from Incineration and Gasification Bottom Ashes
Abstract: The recovery of ferrous and nonferrous metals from the bottom ashes is a common practice, both for the environmental advantages of their recycle and to avoid problems of swelling and expansion that metals can cause when bottom ashes are reused in concrete production or in road construction. This paper focuses on metal recovery from bottom ashes produced in municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerators, with a particular focus on aluminium. A …

Stability and Analysis of Retaining Wall of Bank Areas of the Ganga River
Abstract: Retaining walls are used from historic times to prevent the outflow of river and create havoc in the cities. The most important function of a retaining wall is to prevent entering the water in cities by giving higher length than the flood level and different styles of wall are used to secure town from high water level. Finite element technique is used to numerically model the wall and predict its …

Analysis of Seismic Response of 3-D Steel Frame
Abstract: It is of critical importance that the structures that need seismic retrofitting are correctly identified, and an optimal retrofitting is conducted in a cost-effective fashion. Among the retrofitting techniques available, steel braces can be considered as one of the most efficient solution for seismic performance upgrading of RC frame structures. This paper investigates the seismic behavior of 3D-steel frame with different type of bracings for seismic loading condition corresponding to …
