1. The influence of compositional variability of dimension stone residues on the properties of rustic porous ceramic tiles
Abstract This study analyzed how the compositional variability of dimension stone residues influences the characteristics of rustic porous ceramic tiles. The specimens were prepared by adding 20 wt% of dimension stone residue to the clay and sintered at 1000 °C for 1 h. The testing assays performed were physical properties and structural analysis through sc

2. Effects of plaster to water ratio on physical and mechanical properties of ceramic pieces produced by the slip casting process
Abstract In the slip casting process, the relationship between the amount of plaster and water used in the production of molds influences the production of ceramic materials, because the higher the water content in the mixture, the lower the mechanical strength of the mold and higher the water absorption rate. In order to evaluate the influence of the variat

3. Water uptake of soybean pods and seeds with different lignin contents
ABSTRACT The identification of pod- and seed-related traits of soybean genotypes and their interaction with water uptake can be applied in breeding programs with a view to establishing cultivars developed for the production and maintenance of high-quality seeds. The objective was to evaluate the water uptake of pods and seeds of soybean cultivars with differ

4. Pressed roofing tile based on cementitious material and basalt powder: Technological and toxicological characterization
Abstract This study aims to develop a pressed concrete roofing tile from powder technology containing basalt powder in substitution of fine sand (aggregate) for application in building covers. Specimens were submitted to technological and toxicological characterization. Hence, pressed specimens based on cement and basalt powder were analyzed. In the bending

5. INTERFERENCE OF OPERATING SPEED AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF GRANULATED FERTILIZERS WITH THEIR DEPOSITION
ABSTRACT Uniformity in the deposition of granulated fertilizers in the seed furrow is essential for crop development and productivity. Quantitative (dose and flow) and qualitative factors (segregation and formulation) influence granulated fertilizer distribution throughout its application. This experiment aimed to compare the deposition of two granulated fer

6. Least limiting water range in Oxisol under two conservation tillage systems in sugarcane farming
ABSTRACT The Least Limiting Water Range (LLWR) is an indicator of soil physical quality, contributing in information to propose soil management systems in agricultural farming process. This work aimed to assess the usage of LLWR and critical soil bulk density for physical-water quality evaluations, as well as its effect on sugarcane farming under no-tillage

7. Development of a ceramic membrane for emulsion water-diesel treatment
Abstract The purpose of this study was the development of a low-cost ceramic tubular membrane, using inexpensive materials, namely natural clay, and graphite as a porogenic agent. Such a low-cost membrane can be used as filters or porous supports for the preparation of multilayer ceramic membranes. Extrusion was used as a shape-forming method for this purpos

8. DRYING CHARACTERISTICS AND QUALITY ANALYSIS OF HOT AIR-ASSISTED RADIO FREQUENCY AND HOT-AIR DRYING OF JUJUBE ( Zizyphus jujube Miller cv. Jinsixiaozao )
ABSTRACT Radio frequency (RF) drying is a rapid dehydration technique that reduces water activity and extends the shelf life of agricultural products. In this study, the drying characteristics of jujube during HARF and hot air (HA) were investigated, and quality analyses, such as color, vitamin C (VC) and total flavonoid content (TFC), of jujube were perform

9. Hydroponic cultivation of coriander intercropped with rocket subjected to saline and thermal stresses in the root-zone
ABSTRACT An experiment was carried out in a randomized blocks design, aiming at evaluation of the cultivation of coriander intercropped with rocket subjected to saline and thermal stresses in the root-zone. Six treatments were evaluated, as follows: four treatments consisted of the combinations of two levels of electrical conductivity of water (ECw 0.3 and 6

10. Per-Aqueous Liquid Chromatography for the Separation of Polar Compounds Preparation and Characterization of Poly(ethylene oxide co dimethylsiloxane) Based Stationary Phase
Poly(ethylene oxide-co-dimethylsiloxane) was thermally immobilized on silica particles-Si(PEO)-to separate small polar compounds with water-rich mobile phases. Poly(ethylene oxide-co-dimethylsiloxane) content on Si(PEO) stationary phase was optimized using a central composite design. Infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric

11. Iron Cobaltite (FeCo2O4) Nanocatalysts for Water-Oxidation: Effects of Annealing Temperature on Catalytic Properties
The development of efficient, stable, and non-precious metal water oxidation catalysts (WOCs) is a matter of importance for sustainable energy research. In this work, iron cobaltite (FeCo2O4) nanoparticles were prepared by the coprecipitation method, and we present the effect of heat treatment (250, 350, 450, 650 and 900 °C) on the catalytic properties.

12. Physical-mechanical behavior of alkali-activated materials produced by the one-part method based on fly ash and rice husk ash
Abstract The study on the physical-mechanical properties of alkali-activated materials (AAM) produced by the ‘one-part’ method was carried out. For this, residues such as fly ash and rice husk ash (RHA) were used. The alkaline activator (NaOH) was calcined together with RHA for 2 h at 750 °C. Dry mixes were prepared by replacing fly ash with 10%, 20%, a
