Abstract:
Abstract The sustained and developing construction industry needs a vast amount of material because it is becoming more extensive and sustainable day by day. Problems are also increasing in line with development. Many advanced composite materials and solutions are coming up in the current construction industry to solve these problems. However, these require more comfortable and extensive use. For that, we have to find out cheap and sustainable materials. This research paper aims to combine advanced materials and solutions to create more sustainable solutions and new material. That will enrich the industry and increase more use in the path of development of the construction industry. The factors that have to consider in doing so, these materials and solutions are how much economical, available in the market, able to solve chronic problems, easier to use, and sustainability. Recycled aluminum cans are going to be the material for this study.

Abstract:
Development an ingot originated from the waste of aluminum product had many the advantages and could reduce the cost of aluminum metal production compared to primary process from ore. In this research used the waste of beverage aluminum cans One of the manufacturing methods conducted recycling aluminum waste is the casting process, Commonly, the problem with this casting process was that they are not homogeneous in the as-cast due to segregation. So that in this study a homogenization process on recycling aluminum castings would be carried out to obtain more homogeneous mechanical properties and microstructure. The variables that influence during the homogenization process was heating temperature and holding time. The heating temperature for this was in range from 450 C to 550 C, and the holding time was 2 to 4 hours. Further the effect of the parameter would observe. The observation included mechanical properties, such as tensile strength and hardness, and Microstructure of the ingot. The operation temperature and holding time influenced to grain size and hardness of Aluminum. In general, increasing homogenization temperature would reduce mechanical properties.

Abstract:
The study empirically evaluated the environmental (water and soil) benefits of aluminum waste cans recycling in Lagos State, Nigeria. Soil samples were collected from three locations using a soil auger the locations were aluminum at the recycling site, soil 100m away from the recycling site, and soil 150m away from the recycling site. From each location, three soil samples were collected and taken to the laboratory for analysis of soil physicochemical properties and heavy metal contents using standard methods. Similarly, a random sampling technique was employed to collect 3 borehole water samples 100m away from the recycling site and 150m away from the recycling site using 750 millimeters of a SMART plastic container. The collected water samples were taken to the laboratory for analysis of heavy metals using standard methods. The results obtained revealed that high contents of physio-chemical properties of OC (2.96%), Ca (10.92 cmol/kg), Mg (0.77 cmol/kg), K (0.24 cmol/kg), Na (0.57 cmol/kg), exchange acidity (0.33 cmol/kg) and ECEC (12.46 cmol/kg) were found in soil 100m away from the recycling site. Also high content of Av. P (23.27 mg/kg) was found in soil 150m away from the recycling. The contents of OC, P, Ca, Mg, K, and ECEC increase with distance away from the recycling site. No significant variations were found in the contents of OC, TN, P, Ca, Mg, K, Na, ,Al and ECEC (p>0.05). The content of Fe (223.87 mg/kg) was found to be high at the aluminum waste cans recycling site (discharge point) and low in soil 150m away from the recycling site while high Mn (2.62 mg/kg) content was found in soil 150m away from the recycling site and low in soil 100m away from the recycling point. The contents of Fe, Mn, Pb,Cd and Zn were withwhomWHO maximum permissible level indicating low concentration in the soil. A negative and significant association was observed between Zn and Cd (rho = -0.812, p<0.05). High Fe (259.18 mg/L), Pb (2.49 m,g/L) and Zn (16.01 mg/L) contents were found in the wastewater (discharge point), while high Mn (56.42 mg/L) content was found in the borehole water sample. The contents of Fe, Mn, Pb and Zn were the above WHO permissible limit. Based on the findings, the study concluded that the government should set up modalities to control the discharge of substances into the soil and water.

Abstract:
Due to its properties aluminum is a vital resource for circular economy and zero waste technologies, recycling and sustainability. Recycling aluminum provides an opportunity to decrease carbon dioxide emissions by replacing primary aluminum. Recycling of aluminum requires nearly 5% of energy needed for primary production, that results in greenhouse gases emissions of 0,5 tons of CO2e. Recycled aluminum’s main route is for production of casting alloys. With proper metallurgical processing scrape and aluminum waste can be used to make almost any product: wheels, chassis, transmissions in transport sector; facades, windows, doors in construction; cans, foil in packaging; solar panels, wind farms, aluminum-ion batteries in renewable energy and so on. For alloys made from secondary raw materials, beside the creation of a protective layer on the surface of the melt, which prevents its saturation with hydrogen and oxides during contact with the furnace atmosphere, it is important to ensure effective chemical destruction of oxides on the surface of microvolumes of aluminum melt and decrease the content of hydrogen and other dissolved gases. High efficiency in treatment of aluminum alloys made from scrape and waste has shown the modification, which is carried out to improve the structure (grinding grains, dendritic branches, structural components, dispersing particles of the secondary phases, giving them a favorable shape, etc.) and obtain the material with necessary mechanical and service properties. When choosing a composition for both flux refining and modification, it is necessary to take into account not only materials science aspects of the problem, but also the impact of their composition on the health and safety of production personnel, city residents and the environment.

Abstract:
The deposit refund program for the return of beverage containers in some U.S. states has led to recycling as a means of earning income. Michigan’s 10-cent aluminum can and bottle refund, which is the highest in the U.S., makes recycling for income particularly attractive. This study explores the factors that enable or constrain the livelihood activity of people who collect cans and bottles at football tailgating parties, focusing on the motivation behind choices and the factors that enhance or constrain their activities. Maximum variation (heterogeneity) sampling, a purposeful sampling method, was used to recruit participants from different races, genders, and age groups. Data were collected through direct observation and semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that the income from this livelihood activity was an important survival strategy for those who engage in it. Other significant sources of motivation include contributing to environmental stewardship and recognition for doing so. Differences in capital assets such as social networks, physical strength, skills, and access to equipment led to differences in people’s ability to earn income from collecting cans and bottles. Some challenges restricted their activities, including accessing shopping carts and public buses to transport the cans and limitations imposed on the number of cans that canners can redeem at the redemption centers.

Abstract:
One of the classic problems that are difficult to overcome in urban life is environmental problems where waste is not handled properly, especially inorganic waste. Currently, the largest contributor to waste after organic waste is inorganic waste in the form of canned waste. The use of aluminum as a packaging material is due to its being lightweight, easy to shape, and does not endanger human health. On that basis, its use as packaging is widespread which also triggers the forerunner of the waste problem in people's lives. Aluminum waste will be a source of income for the community if it is handled properly by involving waste processing technology in the form of recycling technology through metal smelting or casting. This service program aims to introduce metal casting applications made from canned waste into frying pan products for the community in Lepo-Lepo, Kendari City. The activity stages include: socializing the introduction of aluminum-based cans of packaging waste and the practice of smelting aluminum cans in a crucible furnace and pouring molten metal into molds. The implementation of this service activity can raise awareness of participants to be able to process waste, especially aluminum can packaging into frying pan products, and create new jobs to improve the welfare of the local community.

Abstract:
The recycling of aluminium packagings is the complex process in due to of the variety of applied varnishes. The compounds of these varnishes in the raised temperature are decomposed and the reactions products may be: gas and/or carbon and in some cases mineral compounds from pigments and the filling materials. Removing the layer organic from aluminium packagings be holds mainly on the thermal processes. In the paper are described the results of removing the varnish coats from surface of the aluminium cans for drinks. The investigations were carried out in the rotary furnace (Linn High Therm) in the temperatures 620 oC in air atmosphere. The surface of sheet after thermal process was submitted the chemical microanalysis on the scanning microscopes Inspect F. It was found that it is possible to obtain practically no oxidizing surface of aluminum sheet. On the surface were the solid residues from mineral pigments and filling materials e.g. oxides Ti, Ba and Si.

Abstract:
We do not know whether recycling will save us from environmental disaster. We believe, however, that segregating trash makes sense. From an early age, our children learn to link the colors of containers with various types of waste. Plastic bags, plastic bottles, metal caps, aluminum cans and milk cartons end up in yellow containers and bags every day. These few examples already show the diversity of these materials. According to the Resin Identification Code (RIC) system introduced in 1988, there are as many as seven codes to designate plastics alone. The waste we separate must therefore undergo another sorting process so that we can speak of proper recycling. How to do it? It turns out that an adequately designed camera is sufficient.

Abstract:
The common perception of people about recycling involves reusage of aluminum cans, glass bottles, and newspapers, whereas recycling of water resources is a most important aspect nowadays. Water recycling is known to reuse cleaned wastewater for beneficial applications including agricultural and landscape irrigation, industrial activities, and replenishing a groundwater using the latest technologies. The current methods have some flaws in the evaluations of water resources’ recycling systems such as large mean square error, time complexity, and low-evaluation efficiency; therefore, this paper proposes an online evaluation method for the recycling process of water resources in urban landscaping. The health model of water resources recycling in urban landscaping has been analyzed using fuzzy-based approach. Second, the evaluation index system of water resources’ recycling is also analyzed using the ecological water-level analysis results, water resource quality, water resource abundance, and water resource utilization rate. Then, the extension of analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is utilized to calculate the weight of water recycling evaluation index. Then a fuzzy-based comprehensive evaluation method is used to find the online evaluation model of the water recycling. Eventually, the evaluation of the effect of water recycling in urban landscaping is performed and analysis is made for decision-making. The results prove that the proposed AHP and fuzzy method has a low mean square error and high accuracy.

Abstract:
Indiscriminate disposal of beverage cans as waste poses a great threat to the environment, causing flooding, landfill, and blockage of drainages, leading to land pollution and sometimes accident. Hence, there is a need to design a system capable of converting these wastes into usable products. In this study, a simulation-based analytical design for aluminum recycling processing plant was carried out to ascertain the efficiency and reliability of the design before fabrication using finite element analysis (FEA) approach. The simulation results revealed a lesser maximum stress of 6.323 MPa for the furnace outer casing under the action of load with a displacement of 0.0795 mm. The stress of the machine components is less than the yield strength of the selected materials, making the machine fit and workable. The analytical results agree with the numerical analysis; hence the conceptual design is fit for fabrication based on the design analysis and evaluation. After the design analysis and simulation, the designed recycling process plant parts are found to be under negligible deflection and stress which is far below the yield strength of chosen materials.

The stir-squeeze casting technique generally alters a material’s physical and mechanical properties. This research investigates the effect of adding fly ash and alumina to the stir-squeeze casting of old aluminum cans. The stir-squeeze casting research parameters were carried out at a pouring temperature of 750oC with a stirring speed of 350 rpm for 3 minutes, with pressure variations ranging from 6 MPa, 8 MPa, and 10 MPa to fabricate Aluminum Matrix Composites (AMC) with an alumina weight fraction of 15% and fly ash of 12%. Aluminum Matrix Composites are metal matrix composites that use alumina and fly ash as reinforcing components. AMC development has also shown promise, owing to good mechanical qualities such as high hardness, impact strength, and relatively easy-to-find basic materials. On composites, X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) testing or chemical composition testing, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), impact strength Brinell hardness, and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was performed; the test results obtained the highest value of the highest hardness at the bottom, and on composites were obtained at a pressure of 6 MPa at 1.577 gr/cm3 and 0.577 percent, the highest impact value at

Subject area Emerging markets, business models, information technology. Study level/applicability This case is designed for MBA groups or students from MSc in Management, International Business, Logistics, Information Systems or Environmental Management programs. It can be covered in courses on Strategy, Process Management, International Business, Process Management, Supply Chain Management and Managing Information Systems. Case overview Returpack is a Hungarian company dealing with reverse vending machines (RVMs) that collect aluminum beverage cans, even in crushed form, based on a worldwide technology innovation. All RVMs are online and monitored and managed remotely. RVMs are mainly “fed” by the poorest, often homeless people, who are still motivated by the extremely low (less than 1 euro cent for a can) incentive that comes from the selling of the aluminum waste to recycling smelters. Based on the success of the business model in Hungary, projects were planned in the USA, Austria, Romania, and Turkey in 2013. However, beyond economic, legal and cultural challenges, a dramatic decline in the global aluminum waste prices early in 2014 questioned the return on investment at these projects. Advancements in the material-recognition technologies at waste sorting plants raise further questions. Expected learning outcomes Evaluating the business model innovation in the case by combining the different approaches of the business model concept with the knowledge on the recycling industry, the crowdsourcing method and the Internet of Things. Based upon this, students may identify and evaluate options for implementing the business model in and adapting to new markets, also by simulating these changes in a formal (numerical) business model.

Abstract:
The basic data on the volume of the formation of household (municipal) metal-containing waste, in particular, aluminum cans for drinks, cans, waste electrical and electronic equipment, electrical power sources (batteries and galvanic cells), as well as lighting lamps. The main methods of handling the indicated waste are considered and their critical analysis is presented. Particular attention is paid to the recycling and disposal of common waste such as waste electrical and electronic equipment, chemical sources of electrical current, and lighting lamps. Taking into account the rapid growth in the consumption of electrical and electronic products, it is shown that now there is a tendency not so much to improve the methods of disposal of the corresponding waste, but to ensure the production of more durable goods that provide for the possibility of their repair. A gradual transition from the 3R strategy (Reuse, Reduce, Recycle) to the 10R strategy (Refuse, Rethink, Reconsider, Reuse, Repair, Refurbish, Remanufacture, Repurpose, Recycle, Recover) is proposed. At the same time, the development of effective technologies for extracting not only traditional iron, aluminum, copper and their alloys from metal-containing household waste is not removed from the agenda, but also more scarce metals, including rare earth and heavy metals, as well as platinum group metals, which will allow significantly reduce the man-made load on the environment.

Abstract:
Aluminum in excess could cause diseases, affecting bones, brain, liver, heart, spleen, as well as muscles. Aluminum in higher concentrations is found in tap water since aluminum compounds are used for water treatment before being supplied. Furthermore, aluminum foils and coatings are used in the processes of cans and boxes packaging, especially for foods and beverages, taking into account its capacities as efficient barrier. The aim of the present studies was represented by the comparison of aluminum packaging waste generation in two areas from Iasi county, a rural and an urban one. Meanwhile, we compared the ratio of aluminum packaging waste and total packaging waste generation, as well as the ratio of aluminum packaging waste and total waste generation in the studied areas. We found a statistical significant difference of 71.31 % (as average) between the aluminum packaging waste quantities in urban and rural zones. Aluminum packaging waste was considered to be any packaging coated by or including aluminum. We were not able to differentiate the aluminum foil wrap from other parts of packaging. Moreover, it seems to exist a small difference of the ratios of aluminum packaging waste and total packaging waste generation in urban area and rural one, but not statistically significant. The selective recycling is almost impossible in rural zones, the lack of education and of means representing the major challenges. The difficulties in managing the waste having as an important component the aluminum packaging could increase the risks for human health.

Abstract:
Savvy marketers rely on the principles of customer segmentation and product targeting to more efficiently allocate scarce resources and effectively reach groups of consumers with similar likes, preferences, or demands. Our objective was to identify and profile consumer segments with regard to their gardening purchases to determine whether there were differences in their ecofriendly attitudes and behaviors such as recycling. Our underlying hypothesis was that different types of gardeners may exhibit more environmentally friendly behavior, predisposing them to be more receptive to product innovations specifically designed to be ecofriendly. Researchers collected plant purchases, recycling attitudes and behaviors, and preferences for ecofriendly containers from 763 consumers in Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, and Texas. A cluster analysis based on plant purchases yielded three consumer segments: low use, woody plant buyers, and herbaceous plant buyers. There were some differences with regard to recycling behaviors among consumers in the three groups, including recycling aluminum drinking cans, newspapers, magazines, use of energy-saving bulbs, and composting yard waste. Generally, herbaceous plant buyers were most ecofriendly followed by woody plant buyers and low use. Given these differences, there appears to be some merit in the future to segment consumers by plant purchases versus others to target specific types of ecofriendly products to them.

Abstract:
Recently, many countries are promoting the collection, the reproduction and the use of consumer goods；aluminum cans, PET bottles, and so on. On the other hand, the reproduction of the glass bottles is not so active excluding use as a returnable bottle, because the recycle cost is high. The glass bottles are fractured by the small fragment for reproduction. The small crushing fragments are called ‘Cullet’. The cullet is melted and molded again as glassware. The surface area is enlarged by making the bottle cullet, and it is possible to melt these efficiently. As a result, it becomes possible to shorten the time to melt the glass bottle and reduce a consumption of the fuel oil. The reasons with not active recycling of the glass bottle are that large-scale crushing equipment is required and it takes a lot of time and cost. This study proposed a new recycling technique for fracturing the glass bottle by using an underwater shockwave by explosive and electric pulse. The shock wave pressures produced by the explosive and the electric pulse energy were measured and the optimum crushing conditions were discussed.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a unique model for the production–recycling–reuse of aluminium refreshment cans. It is presumed that disposed-off 250-ml aluminium cans are collected from the retail outlet. The cans are thereafter arranged into non-tainted and tainted categories. Design/methodology/approach The current model considers all the factors, i.e. producing, recycling and remanufacturing, whereas the previous models provide emphasis only one factor. Six procedures were considered in the improvement of the mathematical model. Findings In this paper, a recycling–reuse model that remanufactures non-tainted aluminium beverage cans and uses regrind from damaged non-tainted aluminium beverage cans mixed with parent aluminium material in the production of new cans was developed and analysed to reduce the amount of aluminium beverage cans that are disposed off in a scrapyard. The model is assumed to have no shortcomings, and the different percentages regarding the classes of cans are taken to be deterministic. Originality/value The model incorporates several unique aspects, including accounting for the cost of land use and associated environmental damage through the calculation of a present value that is charged to the manufacturer.

Abstract:
Aluminium used in beverage containers or cans is a sustainable material and can be recycled repeatedly. In Malaysia, the activities of collecting aluminium beverage cans for recycle normally involve a process of compressing aluminium cans manually in order to reduce storage space. The cans compression process is very time consuming and unproductive. In addition, there is no standard aluminium cans compressor tool that available in the market currently. As such, this paper aims to identify users requirements on the potential tool that could be used to compress aluminium beverage cans, follows by transform the important users requirements to a set of design criteria for the development of aluminium cans compressor. In line with this, six important factors that influence users purchase decision on household product were identified from literature review. The important factors were adapted into a questionnaire to collect and identify users preferred requirements on aluminium cans compressor via Voice of Customer technique. Subsequently, Pareto analysis and t-test were applied to define the most important and significant users requirements that influenced user purchase decision. As a result, a list of important users requirements is generated, which is also served as the design criteria for the development of a new aluminium cans compressor. Finding from the paper suggested that the most important design criteria for the potential aluminium cans compressor are consisted of safety, cost, performance and reliability requirements.

Abstract:
Millions of canned drinks are consumed everyday globally and their wastes create an enviromental issue. Fortunately, the cans are made from aluminium (Al) so that it can be recycled. There are two main keypoints existing during the recycling process of Al cans, i.e. the aluminium loss or low Al-yield and low recycling yield. This work outlines the strategies to improve the recycling perfomance for Al beverage cans, i.e. by adding drossing flux, applying improved melting strategy, and cans decoating prior to melting. Drossing flux was added to assist the detachment of Al from the slag. Another improved melting strategy was worked out by decreasing exposure time cans to the furnace atmosphere during melting. All those above strategies result in an increase of recycle yield in a range of 4 % to 5 %.

Abstract:
Nowadays recovery technologies of the renewable material sources are searched. Aluminium is one of the materials recovered in this way. It is recovered primarily from used beverage cans. These cans are normally back on supermarket shelves as new beverage cans in 6-8 weeks. With a growing percentage of the cans made from aluminium, because of its lightweight qualities, this ensures a healthy market for aluminium can recycling. The main aim of the paper was to show Economic aspects of waste utilization and to present a process of Recycling of the aluminium can. In this way it was possible to show that the concept of renewable material sources is not just a theoretical concept, but the action visible in the economy and very desired by the company due to the reduction of the production costs.

Abstract:
This paper presents and discusses a methodology implemented to study the process of the preparation of aluminium alloy foams using the alloy A-242, beginning from the recycling of secondary aluminium obtained from beverage cans. The foams are prepared by a melting process by adding 0.50 wt.% calcium to the A-242 aluminium alloy with the aim to change its viscosity in the molten state. To obtain the foam, titanium hydride is added in different concentrations (0.50 wt.%, 0.75 wt.%, and 1.00 wt.%) and at different temperatures (923, 948 K, and 973 K) while the foaming time is kept constant at 30 s. For a set of experimental parameter values, aluminium alloy foams with the average relative density of 0.12 were obtained and had an 88.22% average porosity. In this way, it is possible to state that the preparation of aluminium alloy foams A-242 processed from the recycling of cans is possible, with characteristics and properties similar to those obtained using commercial-purity metals.

Abstract:
The recycling of alumium alloys has been growing in interest and applications during the last fourthy years and has become a cost effective, ecological and reliable way to produce aluminium parts. The aluminium scraps that can be recycled include cans and machining chips. The machining processes produce chips of various sizes and shapes, wet or dry, oxidised or not, depending on type of process and the machining conditions, parameters and tools used. Some processes produce metallic dusts and fine chips while other produce large or medium size chips. In some industries such as mould making and aeronautic industries, the chip removal can easily represent 80% of the initial workpiece mass. The type of chips produced during machining can have a great impact on chip management, on part quality, on machine and tool reliability and on part manufacturing costs. The machining chips can be recycled using casting, sintering or pressing and extrusion processes depending on the goal targeted. The selection of the recycling process must take into account the targeted applications, the chip (composition, sizes and cleanliness) and its mechanical properties. Depending on the nature of process to be used and the machining chip generation conditions, some treatments might be necessary prior to transportation and recycling. Parts made with recycled chips can either be bi-phase metal matrix composites materials or usual one phase material with mechanical properties and wear properties comparable or not to the parent alloys. Over the last decades, several chip recycling processes have been proposed for aluminium alloys. This article review the aluminium chips formation, treatement methods, the recycling processes and their impact on recomposed parts’ performance: strength, ductility, corosion and wear resistances.

Abstract:
Metallic aluminium does not naturally occur in nature, and it was largely unknown, virtually a mystery, until 200 years ago. The modern aluminium production using a hydrometallurgical refining process for making alumina followed by electrolysis of this mineral was first developed in 1886 and, in principle, the same technology is still used to this day. About 90% of alumina refineries in the world use the Bayer process for refining Bauxite ore. It is very efficient, but it can only be used on high quality bauxite with low content of admixtures, especially silicon. The Bayer process also generates a Bauxite Residue (BR), maybe better known as Red Mud (RM) which is a thick red-brown, high-basicity paste consisting of silicon, iron, aluminium, titanium and others. The International Institute of Aluminium estimates that since 1886 almost a billion tonnes of aluminium were produced around the world with three fourths of this amount still being in use today, of which about 35% is located in buildings and structures, 30% in electric cables and equipment and 30% in transport. Aluminium scrap is collected all over the world. In the home, it mostly consists of aluminium beverage cans. It is claimed that 1 ton of recycled empty beverage cans save 8 tons of bauxite, 4 kg of various fluorides and 14 kWh of electricity. Additionally, recycling aluminium significantly reduces the negative environmental impact of ever-expanding RM landfills. As the idea of environmental responsibility is gaining more and more traction, separate household scrap recycling is becoming more and more popular around the world. How challenges related to such activity can be met will be the main topic of this paper alongside discussing new developments for alumina production without RM generation.

Abstract:
There is great need for metal scraps recycling and commercialization in Nigeria owning to the abundant and indiscriminate disposal of metal scraps which constitute health hazard to citizens through the blockage of drainage systems, causing erosion and flooding, defaces the aesthetics of the cities through mounting heaps of metallic waste. This research work designed and fabricated a manually operated dual powered tilting crucible furnace suitable for laboratory and workshop practice for recycling of aluminium cans and scraps and other low melting metals and alloys. It consists of a cylindrical stainless steel pot contained in a refractory lined mild steel square box, fired with both gas and electricity and incorporates a K-type digital thermocouple for temperature measurement. The stainless steel crucible pot has a diameter of 195mm, 312mm high and 3mm thick. The refractory material was locally developed from asbestos, clay, cement and perlite combined in the ratio 1:1:1:5 by volume. The fabricated furnace was tested for performance evaluation by melting different samples of aluminium cans using both gas and electricity. It was found that the furnace has fairly uniform melting rate with both gas and electric powered operations but has varying heating rate which decreased with increasing charge mass. The furnace also has no-load heating rates of 28.7oC/min and 20.1oC/min when powered with gas and electricity respectively. The furnace has a melting capacity of 〖0.0093m〗^3 for 25kg of aluminium charge with total output heat of 199.93MJ and thus suitable for use in small scale foundries and tertiary institutions

Abstract:
The automobile industry intends to consume more aluminium alloys in an effort to reduce the greenhouse emissions through the cut in the weight of the passenger cars. Experimental X7475 aluminium alloy is a good candidate to achieve this mission. Past efforts targeted at exploring the aluminium for bumper beam applications and even the recovery of aluminium from recycled beverage can (RBC) were not with the aim of upgrading the 3xxx to a novel 7xxx alloy. The wt. % of Zn was 5.0, 4.5 and 4.0, while Mg was left at 1.50, 1.25 and 1.00 wt. % with Mn at a peak of 0.075, 0.050 average and a least wt. % of 0.025. Alloys were homogenized and taken through annealing (O), natural aging (T4) and artificial aging (T6). The effect of hardening phases such as MgZn2 (ICDD 034-0457) due to heat treatments on the physical and mechanical properties of the new X7475 alloys was investigated. Formation of precipitates affected the density and hardness of the alloys produced via stir casting route. A least hardness of 63.40 Hv was observed in alloy H with a density of 2.7264 g/cm3 while the maximum of 113.06 Hv was recorded against alloy C in as-cast (AC). The result has contributed to the database of experimental alloys with the possibilities of producing a new material from RBCs for bumper beam applications. Future investigation should employ design of experiment (DOE) in optimization of the heat treatment for better mechanical properties.

Abstract:
Increased material demand in all sectors is primarily due to exponential growth in population to fulfill human needs and comforts. Recycling of collected aluminium beverage cans and Al 6061 alloy scraps from industries ensures energy savings with reduced environmental problems in fabricating composite parts economically. The iron oxide (α-Fe2O3) nanoparticles were prepared by precipitation method using ferric chloride and ammonia as a precursor. The prepared nanoparticles were characterized by using Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR). Stir cast processing route ensures uniform mix of reinforcement nanoparticles in matrix material. The prepared nanocomposites (matrix: Al Scrap (90% Scrap Al 6061 alloy + 10% Waste Al can); reinforcement: 2%, 4% and 6% wt. of Al matrix) were mechanically characterized for hardness and tensile strengths. It was observed that, increased percent of Fe2O3 nanoparticles in the metal matrix nanocomposite (MMCs) resulted in significant increase in hardness and tensile strength values. Fractography analysis examined viz. scanning electron microscope (SEM) revealed a ductile failure for as-cast Al scrap followed by brittle failure in Al MMC's.

This study explored coconut shells in developing Al-Cu-Mg based nanocomposites for fabricating mould parts. The aim is to engineer alternate way through which income can be generated from agricultural wastes and recycling of industrial waste like aluminium cans. Al-Cu-Mg based nanocomposites were produced and characterised. Effects of carbonised and uncarbonised coconut shell nanoparticle (UCSNP) additions on properties of Al-Cu-Mg nanocomposites were compared. Maximum tensile strength was obtained at 10%vol uncarbonised coconut shell nanoparticle additions to Al-Cu-Mg. Increase in tensile strength and elastic modulus were noted with carbonised coconut shell reinforced Al-Cu-Mg nanocomposites against the decrease in the elastic (Young’s) modulus of the UCSNP/Al-Cu-Mg nanocomposites. Despite highest tensile strength of 10%volUCSNP/Al-Cu-Mg, 10%volCCSNP/Al-Cu-Mg nanocomposite is ranked as the best material in this study due to its optimum combination of properties including tensile strength, elastic modulus, tensile strain, impact energy and hardness values. Hence, it has been selected for fabricating open die mould parts to be used in compression sheet forming process for fabricating polymeric standard samples for tensile flexural analyses.

Abstract:
Aluminum is one of the most versatile engineering metals, finding its use in a variety of fields including construction, architecture, aerospace, automotive, consumer products, and many more. The high demand for aluminum production is driven by its advantageous physical, chemical, and mechanical properties, such as a high strength to weight ratio and good corrosion resistance. Additionally, aluminum can be recycled using processes that require only a fraction of the energy required for primary production. Aluminum recycling is primarily accomplished by melting in foundries. In some aluminum foundries, a large amount of energy is lost due to poor insulation and an inaccurate knowledge of the crucible temperature. This project focused on designing a safe, efficient electric aluminum foundry. Using theoretical calculations, an electric foundry was designed to melt 3.0 kg of aluminum cans using ~9 MJ of energy. A prototype was successfully fabricated and tested with attention to the structural, thermal, and electrical design aspects. Experiments showed that the foundry was capable of melting 3.0 kg of aluminum cans using ~11 MJ of energy, which was close to the theoretical calculations. The normalized energy usage of the foundry was ~6.9 MJ per kg of pure aluminum produced, which compares well with benchmarked aluminum recycling foundries.

In this study the elemental concentrations of twenty-three beer cans of different brands and nationalities were determined using X-ray fluorescence technique. Beer cans from Brazil (20 beer cans), Germany, the United Kingdom and Colombia were analyzed, totalizing 15 different breweries. It was possible to calculate the concentration of 15 elements in the beer cans samples: Mg, Al, Si, S, Cl, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Zr and Pb. The results showed that aluminum concentrations ranged from 94 % to 96 %. Other's elements can be considered trace elements, being the highest concentrations of them for Mg (approximately 2%) and Mn (approximately 1%). Some elements showed differences between cans from different nationalities, with Zn being much higher in samples from Brazil. The Zr element showed similarities between German and UK beer cans. In addition, the beer can sample from Colombian had lower concentrations of Cl and Ga. This study shows that the values found are comparable to those found in the literature and that the concentrations of some trace elements in beer cans may represent signs of impurities brought during the recycling process.

Abstract:
The Kingdom of Bahrain is facing escalating concerns about the current municipal solid waste (MSW) management. These concerns are aggravated by the increased MSW generated per capita as well as the current recycling rate in Bahrain which does not exceed 1%. The residential areas produce substantial amount of MSW and therefore can be considered as good places to start any recycling program. A total of 300 randomly selected household representatives were selected to answer a questionnaire that was designed to identify their socio-economic status, measure their awareness, their recycling practice, to determine their willingness, and recognize any challenges and obstacles that hinder the recycling practice. The results have revealed that the correspondents have shown high awareness (75%) concerning recycling, however their willingness to participate in recycling was limited to 54.3%. In addition 46.3% of the respondents have never recycled any of the most recyclable materials such as paper, glass, plastic, aluminum and tin cans, food waste, garden waste, batteries, and medicine. Nevertheless, the majority of the respondents (87.3%) were willing to engage in recycling or composting scheme mainly if obstacles such as lack of proper recycling infrastructure and spaces to store different bins in their living spaces were resolved. In view of the results obtained from the current study, several recommendations were suggested including the implementation of effective legislations regarding waste recycling as well as public engagement through awareness campaigns.

ABSTRAKDalam kehidupan sehari-hari banyaknya kaleng aluminium bekas yang terdapat di sekitar kita menjadi limbah jika tidak tertangani dengan baik dan dapat menganggu kebersihaan lingkungan. Limbah kaleng bekas kemasan tersebut memiliki nilai ekonomis yang cukup tinggi, sehingga banyak para pemulung mengumpulkan kaleng minuman bekas untuk baik, untuk itu ada kelompok warga masyarakat yang berpenghidupan dengan mengumpulkan kaleng bekas kemasan tersebut untuk dijual ke pengepul. Sebelum dijual biasanya mereka press terlebih dahulu secara manual dengan menggunakan kaki ataupun dipukul dengan menggunakan palu yang bisa mencederai sekaligus membahayakan mereka. Kaleng bekas kemasan tersebut memiliki bobot yang kecil, tapi memiliki volume yang besar. Hal tersebut menjadi masalah bagi tempat penampungan dan transportasi ke perusahaan pendaur-ulang. Pada kegiatan pengabdian ini dibuatlah alat press kaleng dengan tenaga pnematik yang selanjutnya diserahkan kepada kelompok masyarakat pengepul barang bekas. Alat press kaleng memiliki dimensi ruang pres sebesar 30cm x 30cm x 30cm. Fokus kegiatan pengabdian ini adalah pemberian pemahaman mendesain alat press, pelatihan cara menggunakannya, serta cara perawatannya. Proses pengepresan secara manual yang dilakukan selama ini tentu saja tidak efektif karena membutuhkan waktu yang lama dan juga bisa mencederai tangan jika tidak hati-hati. Dengan dibuatnya alat press kaleng dengan menggunakan sistem pneumatic ini diharapkan dapat menghemat waktu dan lebih efisien.Kata kunci : kaleng, ruang press, pneumatic. ABSTRACTIn everyday life, many used aluminum cans around us become waste if not handled properly and can disturb environmental hygiene. The waste cans used for packaging have a fairly high economic value, so many scavengers collect used drink cans for good, for that there are groups of community members who make a living by collecting these used packaging cans to be sold to collectors. Before being sold, they are usually pressed manually using their feet or beaten with a hammer, which can injure and endanger them. These used packaging cans have a small weight, but have a large volume. This is a problem for shelter and transportation to recycling companies. In this service activity, a can press tool with pneumatic power is made which is then handed over to the community group of used goods collectors. The can press has dimensions of a press chamber of 30cm x 30cm x 30cm. The focus of this service activity is providing an understanding of designing press tools, training on how to use them, and how to maintain them. The manual pressing process that has been carried out so far is of course not effective because it takes a long time and can also injure your hands if you are not careful. By making a can press using a pneumatic system, it is hoped that it will save time and be more efficient.Keywords: cans, press room, pneumatic
