Aerosol to Suggest Climate Delineation
Abstract: Marine aerosol of submicron sized biogenic originated organic fraction is subtending persistently constitutively compared to drastic variation based on volcanic eruptions. Sulphur is studied to form acid aerosol where the basic constituent in the stratosphere is reduced comparatively. High concentrations of organic fraction have been found from aerosol in marine boundary layer (MBL). Marine aerosol chemical composition has been influenced by the yearly biological cycle of the ocean, and so …

A Review on Stabilization of Expansive Soil Using Different Methods
Abstract: Expansive soils are difficult soils for construction purposes because of their cyclic swell/shrink behavior. These soils undergo significant expansion when subjected to an increase in water content or shrink under evaporation condition (when water out). Bulging soils can be improved in several ways. Either by adding materials such as cement, lime, sand and adding river mixture soil. or these soils treated with chemical additives. When added to expansive soils in …

Improvement of Properties of Expansive Soil using Terrazyme
Abstract: Enzymatic emulsions contain enzymes that react with soil molecules to form a cementing bond that stabilizes the soil structure and reduces the soil’s affinity for water. When the bio-enzymes like Terrazyme, are mixed with soil they alter its engineering properties. When added to a soil, the enzymes increases the wetting and bonding capacity of the soil particles and improves the chemical bonding between soil particles and creating a more permanent …

Evaluation and Characterization of Saline Groundwater in Context of Geogenic Sources in Faridabad District of Haryana
Abstract: Faridabad district is characterized by a distinct geogenic setting. The given climatic condition in the district has reduced availability of freshwater in the region. The alluvial sediments of the Quaternary age forms the principal aquifer system, besides hardrock aquifer system consists of weathered quartzites of Precambrian age (belonging to the Delhi Super Group). The coupled effect of geogenic setting and anthropogenic influences has led to deterioration of the groundwater quality …
