Strength and Durability Properties of Concrete Containing Pumice and Scoria as Supplementary Cementitious Material
(Hindawi, 2021-05-24)
Concrete structures suffer serious deterioration under a corrosive environment. Consequently, the service life of these concrete
structures is decreased and deteriorates under combined attack of sulphate and chlorides. ...
Theoretical and Experimental Performance Analysis of a Novel Domestic Biogas Burner
(Hindawi, 2020-09-16)
The inefficient indoor burning of fuelwood on traditional cookstoves generates pollutants, primarily carbon monoxide and many other human health-damaging emissions. It is from this risk that it is necessary to have an ...
Transformations to groundwater sustainability: from individuals and pumps to communities and aquifers
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021-05-11)
If the success of agricultural intensification continues to rely on the depletion of aquifers and exploitation of (female) labour, transformations to groundwater sustainability will be impossible to achieve. Hence, the ...
