Assessment of Concrete Footpath Upheavals in Heatwaves

(Corresponding) Bradford M.
Topic: 
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
Most concrete footpaths are cast without steel reinforcement and in segments between bituminous joints, with the joints intended to accommodate thermal expansions (and contractions) of the pavement. However, a combination of prolonged heatwave conditions and the ingress over time of material into...Read more

Heat of adsorption in the fly ash zeolite – CO2 system at dynamic conditions

Zgureva D., (Corresponding) Boycheva S., Marinov I., Miteva S., Asenov A.
Topic: 
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
The global warming represents one of the main world problems in the recent decades as it is considered that electricity production by coal burning is responsible for 40 % of the total CO2 emissions. The post-combustion capture of CO2 based on physical adsorption has the highest potential for...Read more
