Production of activated carbon from oil palm shells via physical activation with H2O and its characterization for use in aqueous phase

(Corresponding) Rincon S., Alvarez D.
Topic: 
Energy technologies and sustainability
Oil palm shells (OPS) are a solid residue of the extraction of palm oil having excellent characteristics for production of activated carbon. OPS worldwide production amounts to 17.214 ton (2018) from which Colombia participates with 364 ton. Oil palm shells were first carbonized in a horizontal...Read more

Durability of cement mortars and concretes exposed to biological attack as one of the sustainability parameter – a correlation analysis

(Corresponding) Ondrejka Harbulakova V., Estokova A., Smolakova M., Luptakova A.
Topic: 
Energy technologies and sustainability
Among the pillars of the sustainability, the aspect of prolongation of life of constructions has to be involved. Focus on sustainability of construction leads to study of durability of building materials. Phenomenon called biocorrosion, existing mainly in concrete sewer systems, agricultural...Read more
