Selective Recovery of Valuable Chemicals from Tire Pyrolysis Oil: A Sustainable Approach
Abstract: The generation of waste/scrap/end-of-life tires (ELTs) poses severe environmental challenges globally. For the disposal of huge numbers of ELTs (generated every year) using conventional recycling methods, like as landfill or incineration, are not preferred due to their adverse environmental impacts. To overcome this problem, an alternative and promising technology is developed -the pyrolysis of waste tires. Pyrolysis is a thermochemical process that decomposes organic materials (Rubber Hydrocarbons) in the absence …

Concrete Oil and Gas Platforms in Offshore Marine Environment: A Review
Abstract: Abstract Offshore concrete structures have been successfully in use since 1973. Since then, 47 major concrete offshore structures were built worldwide. They were mostly used in the petroleum industry as drilling, extraction or storage units for crude oil or natural gas. Generally, offshore concrete structures are classified into fixed and floating structures. Fixed structures are mostly built as concrete gravity based structures where the loads are directly transferred through concrete …
