Abstract:
The utilisation of micro-scale thermal treatment technologies for non-sewered applications has been emerging as a prominent route for the safe treatment and disposal of high water content hazardous feedstock. This study provides a comprehensive review of the technological concepts practiced up to date in commercial/pilot and small scales for various types of solid fuels. The respective challenges are critically described and discussed to aid in the selection of promising technology for on-site sanitary applications. Furthermore, the challenges observed with the nominated (pyrolysis) technology are discussed in detail and addressed. This study suggests rapid energy recovery from by-products primarily made up of the highest yield of syngas with a desirable calorific value. The optimum operating ranges are discussed to ensure a reliable thermal conversion of sludge materials considering the application constraints and technology drawbacks. However, further studies are needed to investigate the uncertainties regarding emissions, energy consumption and overall associated costs.

Abstract:
The growth of the population is related to urbanization, development, and industrialization. There found a strong correlation between population, industrialization, and waste production. The famous thermodynamics laws offer insights into the technological/marketing impact on waste production and energy conversion processes. The conventional methods such as land filling, combustion, gasification, incineration, etc. not enough to manage such a huge volume of waste. The non-segregation tendency, consumerism nature makes this waste management work problematic. The paper studies the natural efficiency in the waste management system and also the inability of traditional technology's to handle rapidly increasing waste volume. The plasma-based waste technology is similar to the natural waste management cycle, but with high volume capacity in a short duration. This also has a scope of waste to energy (WtE) conversion. Though plasma has high installation and maintenance costs, revenue generation from byproducts like syngas and slag will create it financially viable.

Abstract:
The applicability of learned introduction of anaerobic digestion of animal waste will be obvious after a wide setting of afull-scale experiment and an across-the-board economic feasibility.However, yet today, basing on the domestic and abroad practice on biopowerdigesters engineering and operation,it can be argued that their use is economically advantageous than the traditional system. The obtained experience evidences thatthe cubicle housingof dairy cows is advanced. Milking operation is carried out in a special house, which ramps up milkquality, improves working conditions for milkmaids, and reduces labor costs.The problem of the animal waste impact on environment, especially on natural waters is acute. There is no summarized information about their distribution for fertilization and discharge.Not only liquid animal waste, but also silage sap causepollution. The Energy Program sets the task of widespread involvement of non-conventional energyin the country's energy balance. Biomass is of the great importance among such sources in the agro-industrial complex of the country.Anaerobicmethanoic digestion of animal waste allows evolving biogas – a valuable organic fertilizer with extra biological activityor protein-vitamin concentrates for feed supplementation.Such digestion of animal waste is an effective environmental action that provides its deodorization, reduction of soil and water pollution with repugnant substances and pathogenic microflora, atmospheric emissions (due to removal)

Abstract:
Garbage problem is often very complex in urban areas. The handling pattern of collecting, transporting and disposing that has been applied up to this day has not yet produced an appropriate solution. This is evident from the data of statistic centre institution in 2015 that 76.31% of the existing waste in the community has not been sorted, while 10.28% sorted to be used and 13.41% sorted to be discarded, showing the community amount of unsorted garbage large enough to necessitate managerial efforts at the waste sources. In designing a systematic and structured waste management system, the generations, compositions, and characteristics of the waste are indispensable. Therefore, a research is conducted on these three dimensions to the non-domestic waste in Semarang City, which involves commercial waste (from the markets, restaurants, and hotels), institutional waste (from the offices and schools). From the research result the average of 0,24kgs/person/day in weight unit of the City’s non-domestical waste generation is derived. The waste composition is dominated by organic waste of around 61.95%, while the rest percentage is inorganic. The management policy is directed with the application of Management Information System model based on Information Technology because of the system’s abilities to effectuate the waste management.

Abstract:
In an era where the network of interconnected devices is rapidly expanding, it is difficult for organizations to adapt to the increasingly data-rich and dynamic environment while remaining competitive. Employees experience that much of their time and resources is spent daily on repetitive, inefficient and mundane tasks. Whereas lean manufacturing has manifested itself as a well-known optimization concept, lean information management and the removal of waste is not yet being used to its full potential as its direct value is less visible. A case study was conducted to define which types of non-value adding activities can be identified within information flows and to determine whether decentralized application development can eliminate this digital waste. An internal information flow was modelled, analyzed and optimized by developing customized applications on the Microsoft Power Platform. Based on literature from the field of manufacturing and software development, a framework was developed to categorize digital waste as well as higher order root causes in terms of business strategy and IT infrastructure. While decentralized app development provides the ability to significantly reduce operational digital waste in a simplified manner, it can also enable unnecessary expansion of a common data model and requires application lifecycle management efforts as well as edge security to ensure data compliance and governance. Although limited to one case study, the suggested framework could give insights to organizations that aim to optimize internal workflows by identifying and eliminating digital waste and its root causes.
I en tid där nätverk av sammankopplade enheter expanderar snabbt, är det svårt för organisationer att anpassa sig till den allt mer datoriserade och dynamiska miljön och samtidigt förbli konkurrenskraftiga. Anställda upplever att mycket av deras tid och resurser spenderas på repetitiva, ineffektiva och vardagliga uppgifter. Lean manufacturing har visat sig vara ett välkänt optimeringskoncept, dock har informationshantering och avlägsnande av slöseri inte ännu nått sin fulla potential eftersom dess direkta värde är svårare att se och räkna. En fallstudie genomfördes för att definiera vilka typer av icke-värdeskapande aktiviteter som kan identifieras inom informationsflöden och för att avgöra om decentraliserad applikationsutveckling kan eliminera detta digitala slöseri. Ett internt informationsflöde modellerades, analyserades och optimerades genom att utveckla anpassade applikationer på Microsoft Power Platform. Baserat på litteratur från tillverknings- och mjukvaruutvecklingsområdet utvecklades en ram för att kategorisera digitalt slöseri samt högre grundorsaker när det gäller affärsstrategi och ITinfrastruktur. Medan decentraliserad apputveckling ger möjlighet att avsevärt minska det operativa digitala slöseriet på ett förenklat sätt, så kan det också möjliggöra onödig expansion av en gemensam datamodell och kräver hantering av livscykelanalyser samt kantsäkerhet för att säkerställa datahantering och styrning. Trots begränsad till en fallstudie, så kan det föreslagna ramverket ge insikter till organisationer som syftar till att optimera interna arbetsflöden genom att identifiera och eliminera digitalt slöseri och dess grundläggande orsaker.

Abstract:
Os problemas socioambientais fundamentam-se em uma crise de valores, onde a incorporação de atitudes pro ambientais é primordial. Nesse sentido, os processos educativos são importantes para impulsionar as transformações necessárias para a sobrevivência da sociedade e podem ser desenvolvidos tanto na educação formal quanto na educação não formal. Há a necessidade de trazer conhecimento e de sensibilizar os jovens quanto à importância das questões ambientais, contribuindo para que desenvolvam um posicionamento crítico face à crise detectada. A Educomunicação, que tem como um de seus compromissos a produção participativa de conteúdo, apresenta-se como uma alternativa de ferramenta para a realização de intervenções que favoreçam a preservação dos recursos naturais. Esta pesquisa foi realizada em Instituto de Assistência Social de Curitiba, com 52 jovens de idades entre 14 e 17 anos em seu período de contraturno escolar. O objetivo da proposta visou desenvolver, aplicar e avaliar metodologias de educação ambiental, utilizando ferramentas de Educomunicação socioambiental para a promoção de informação e sensibilização quanto a questão dos resíduos sólidos nos corpos d’água. Foi desenvolvida a partir de uma abordagem mista (quantitativa e qualitativa), utilizando os princípios metodológicos da pesquisa-ação, através de um diagnóstico inicial de percepção ambiental, nível de conhecimentos e atitudes referentes ao tema. Como também, a análise de seus resultados para planejamento e elaboração das atividades respeitando uma sequência lógica para apreensão de novos conhecimentos. As intervenções abordaram teorias e práticas sendo denominadas oficinas. Estas, utilizaram procedimentos adequados para suas realizações que consistiram em palestras, discussões, atividades de campo, programas de rádio, registro por fotografias e filmagens, criação de páginas na rede social e evento. Os materiais textuais e audiovisuais produzidos serviram como subsídios para as produções de Educomunicação socioambiental visando instigar a percepção ambiental do jovem e da sociedade sobre a poluição de rios por resíduos sólidos. As informações e conhecimentos adquiridos durante o percurso do desenvolvimento, foram o suporte para a compilação dos saberes sobre os efeitos da interferência humana nos sistemas aquáticos, e, de sensibilização para inserção de atitudes sustentáveis, como por exemplo, a separação seletiva de resíduos sólidos e seu correto descarte. Sendo todo o processo desenvolvido através do diálogo, participação, da expressão e criatividade dos sujeitos envolvidos na pesquisa.
Environmental problems are founded in a crisis of values, where the incorporation of environmental attitudes is an urgent need. In this sense the educational processes are essential to boost the transformations necessary to the survival of society and these processes can occur both in formal education and in non-formal education. No need to bring knowledge and raise awareness among young people about the importance of environmental issues, helping to develop a critical attitude before the socio-environmental crisis. The Educommunication that has as one of its commitments participative content production, is presented as a possible tool for the realization of social and environmental interventions.This survey was conducted with 52 people aged between 14 and 17 years during their period of school hours in the Institute of Social Assistance located in the city of Curitiba, Parana state. The research objective aimed to develop, implement and evaluate methods of education, using tools of environmental educational and communication. Such activity was focused on promoting information and awareness related to the impact of solid waste on water bodies. It was developed from a mixed approach (quantitative and qualitative), the methodological principles of action research through an initial diagnosis of environmental perception, level of knowledge and attitudes related to the subject. The analysis of such results was utilized for planning and preparation of activities with a logical construction of knowledge. The interventions addressed theories and practices known as “Oficinas”. This strategy used proper procedures that consisted of lectures, discussions, field activities, radio programs, photographs and footage, events and the creation of pages on social networking to achieve the aimed results. All textual and audiovisual material produced served as subsidies for production of environmental educational communication with the objective of instilling environmental awareness on young pelople and society about pollution of rivers by solid residues. The information and knowledge gained during the research has supported the compilation of knowledge on the effects of human interference in aquatic systems as well as on raising awareness of sustainable attitudes. Thus, the whole process has enabled the dialogue, participation, expression, creativity and reasoning of the subjects involved in the research.

Abstract:
Today's new technology provides endless opportunities to automate and digitize operations. An increasing number of companies replace manual tasks with new technologies, aiming at increasing efficiency and productivity. This master thesis project was made in corporation with Essity Hygiene and Health AB at Falkenberg. In order for Essity to continue to be one of the leading manufacturers and maintain their financial ability, they need to take a step in the right direction towards a more modern production.   The purpose with the project is to propose ways to reduce the amount of manual non-value adding work performed by operators, with focus on time losses, ergonomic and safety. The project shall deliver realistic concepts that reduce manual tasks performed by operators through automation, and find new ways to quality-proof the material.   The project has worked according to an iterative work process where the cycle was repeated, until the outcome satisfied the needs. The project started with mapping the current state where Fenix 2, one of the machines, was selected for the mapping. Two weeks was spent in the production to gain understanding of the operators work tasks and working environment. The project did, among other things, observations, interviews, surveys, ergonomic analysis, flowcharts and spaghetti diagrams. The result from the current state shows that the refill of material is the most time-consuming task for the operators. It was also made clear, based on step counters and spaghetti diagrams that the operators walk a lot. The result from the mapping formed the basis for the development areas. The project chose to proceed with the material refill, walking and the quality and made requirement specifications for each area.   An ideation process was used to generate as many ideas as possible for the chosen areas. The ideas then became early concepts, which were evaluated with weighted matrixes and feedback from employees. The concepts were then further developed into three final concepts, Ground Floor, Second Floor and Integration. The concepts shows that it is possible to reduce the manual working time with 4,5 hour per shift and decrease the walking with better information system.   Further recommendation is that Essity proceed with the results, both the mapping and the concepts. The recommendation is to do another evaluation and include the operators in the process and after that use the results in this thesis as the basis for future implementations.
Dagens teknik medför oändligt med möjligheter till att automatisera och digitalisera verksamheter. Allt fler företag ersätter manuellt arbete med ny teknik, i syfte att öka effektiviteten och produktiviteten. Det här examensarbetet har genomförts i samarbete med Essity Hygiene and Health AB i Falkenberg. För att fortsätta vara ledande inom deras bransch och behålla sin konkurrenskraftighet behöver Essity ta ett steg i rätt riktning och modernisera sin produktion.   Syftet med projektet är att föreslå sätt att minska mängden manuellt, icke värdeskapande arbete hos operatörerna med fokus på tid, ergonomi och säkerhet. Projektet ska leverera realistiska koncept som minskar mängden icke värdeskapande arbete hos operatörerna genom att automatisera manuella arbetsmoment och finna nya sätt att kvalitetssäkra materialet.   Projektet har arbetat efter en iterativ arbetsprocess där processen upprepats tills resultatet uppfyllde behoven. Projektet startades med en kartläggning över nuläget där Fenix 2, en av maskinerna valdes ut. Två veckor spenderades i produktionen för att få förståelse för operatörernas arbetsuppgifter och arbetsmiljö. Projektet gjorde bland annat observationer, intervjuer, enkäter, ergonomiska analyser, flödesscheman och spagetti diagram. Resultatet från nuläget visade på att det är påfyllnaden av material som tar mest tid för operatörerna under ett skift. Baserat på spagettidiaramen och stegräknarna blev det tydligt att operatörerna går mycket. Resultatet från kartläggningen utgjorde grunden för vilka områden som projektet vidareutvecklade. Projektet valde att gå vidare med materialpåfyllnad, gående och kvalitet och för dessa områden så upprättades en kravspecifikation.   En ide generering användes för att skapa så många idéer som möjligt för de olika områdena. Idéerna blev sedan till tidiga koncept som i sin tur utvärderades med hjälp av viktningsmatriser och feedback från anställda. Koncepten utvärderades ytterligare till tre slutliga koncept, Första Våningen, Andra Våningen och Integrations koncept. Koncepten visar att det är möjligt att minska arbetstiden med 4,5 timmar samt gåendet genom bättre informationssystem.   Vidare rekommendationer är att Essity fortsätter arbeta med resultaten från både kartläggningen och slutliga koncepten. Rekommendationen är att göra ytterligare en utvärdering och inkludera operatörerna i utvecklingsprocessen. Efter det bör resultatet i den här rapporten användas som grund för vidare implementering och framtida projekt.

At present, in the recycle of solar panel, the recycling of aluminum frame is the most convenient and feasible. As for the other parts of the solar panels,they can be recycled with pulverization flotation, organic solvents and pyrolysis. However, these methods may cause dust, noise, biological toxicity, environmental pollution and damage. In addition to their high energy consumption and complex components, it is difficult to separate all the components, and the subsequent of the separated components is not easy. In this research, solvothermal method as well as pressure are used to successfully find low-toxic non-polar solvents and non-toxic solvents containing no halides and aromatics. In different stages of processing, the components of the solar panels are successfully separated within 3 hours, and the solvent used in the experimental process can be completely recycled. Through the improvement of raw materials and processing, this research has truly achieved the goal of being waste free and recyclable. Using the gravimetric method, the recycle rate is nearly 100%, making the products from the cradle to the grave and then return to the cradle from the grave.

Abstract:
A large amount of valuable Carbon and Hydrogen is lost in the disposal of the non-recyclable fraction of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) – particularly unsorted waste fraction and plastics residue from mechanical recycle process. The waste-to-chemical technology allows to exploit the components entrapped in the non-recyclable waste by converting it into new chemicals. The core of waste-to-chemical technology is the gasification process, which is designed to convert waste into a valuable syngas to be used as example for methanol production. Waste to methanol schemes allow to achieve significant environmental and economic benefits, which can be further intensified within the scenario of increasing share of renewable energy.

Abstract:
Heavy metal(loid)s are hazardous, biologically non-essential, non-biodegradable and persistent in nature, which can accumulate in plants and animals as well as in environment especially agri- and aqua- culture ecosystems. It is severely responsible for causing several health hazards problems in human, such as, cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, nephrological, dermatological, neurological disorders as well as carcinogenic effects. Removal of these heavy metals from living systems is extensively expensive and also unsuccessful in sent percent removal. Therefore, in order to protect the environment, the removal of heavy metal(loid)s from polluted effluents is essential before discharging into environment. Besides various treatment technologies, sorption of metal(loid)s using bio-wastes are highly potent alternatives in recent years. The present chapter deals with the removal efficiencies of various bio-wastes, orange peels, waste tea leaves, rice husk, wheat stalk, sugar cane bagasse, coconut husk, sun flower stalk, corn cob, nut shell, water hyacinth, crab shell particle, activated carbons etc. The present discussion has also revealed that bio-waste could be a low-cost eco-friendly and green emerging alternative technology in treating the metal(loid)s contaminated environment without posing any further adverse environmental impacts.

Abstract:
In the midst of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the proliferation of the technology revolution is changing the mindset of people relating to waste management. The mobility of people to the different places of African continent, a hike in industrial advancements, and the increase in the rise of goods consumption among others are fueling the generation of waste across Africa. Although the waste management industry plays a crucial role, reports have shown in the last decade that environmental degradation, pollution, and non-compliances by the activities of waste management companies prevail and impinge on environmental performance. Waste has now become one of the most significant environmental issues that requires attention. This chapter emphasizes on the landscape of the sector of waste management and the challenges facing the waste industry in Africa. The chapter ends with propositions to address those issues in a view to promote environmental performance and ensure responsible management of emerging African markets in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Abstract:
The circular economy (CE) model has become highly relevant in recent years, with the electronics industry being one of the divisions that have thought about its application. Regardless of just a constrained measure of writing being accessible on waste electric and electronic equipment (e-waste), electronic waste or e-waste is a developing and quickly developing test for waste administration in the world. E-waste is a term for electronic items that have turned out to be undesirable, non-working, or outdated, and have basically come to the 'part of the arrangement', inside only a couple of brief years, given the quick innovative advances inside the business. E-waste is created from anything electronic —PCs, TVs, screens, PDAs, PDAs, VCRs, CD players, fax machines, printers, and coolers— and is commonly broken into two classes, information technology (IT) and consumer electronics (CE), on account of divergent systems and technologies required for recycling these products.

Abstract:
Environmental degradation has become a major societal issue thanks to uncontrolled anthropogenic activity, besides natural factors. Entry of toxic heavy metals and minerals in human system mainly through contaminated water, food and air, leads to overt and insidious health problems. Heavy metal pollution, a global concern today, can be managed by using bioremediation, an eco-friendly alternative. Bioremediation is one of the most promising technological approaches to the problem of hazardous waste. It is a technology for removing pollution from environment, restoring contaminated site and preventing future pollution. Bioremediation can be performed in situ or ex situ. Microorganisms directly degrade contaminants rather than merely transferring them from one medium to another, employ metabolic degradation pathways and can be used in situ to minimize disturbance of the cleanup site. Hence, microorganisms can be effective, economical and non-disruptive tools for eliminating hazardous chemicals. Its advantage generally outweigh the disadvantage, therefore may be used as management tool.

Full text
Abstract:
Under environmentally friendly and environmental issues, wastewater treatment in laboratories and factories is an important international issue. Among them, wastewater from the chemical industry accounts for a large part of industrial wastewater discharge. The introduction of new technologies to treat chemical wastewater is of great significance. In particular, the amount of wastewater produced by inorganic chemistry experiments is relatively large, and the pollutants are mostly heavy metal salts. According to the characteristics of inorganic chemistry experimental wastewater, such as special nature, small amount, strong discontinuity, high hazard, complex and changeable composition, etc., design a chemical reaction to provide a practical and feasible method to treat wastewater with high efficiency and low cost. This research initially takes Ni+ metal ion waste liquid as the first stage of recycling and treatment to improve the traditional low-concentration non-economic treatment. The preliminary results of this research are neutralization reaction and optimal pH value control of Ni+ waste liquid to generate Ni+ precursors to increase the economic value of recycling will be the basis for providing in-house recycling systems for electroplating plants, panel plants, and semiconductor plants to achieve emission reduction, green chemical industry and green environmental protection.

Abstract:
Cold plasma has attracted lots of attention among researchers because it has a wide range of applications, such as the automotive industry, textile industry, microelectronics, packaging, biomedical technology, food preservation, and agricultural sectors. Scientists have shown a great interest in non-thermal plasma because of its advantages such as low temperature, scalable size, low operation cost, flexible operation, and high electron and reactive specie density. Also, non-thermal plasma can be operated at atmospheric pressure, which is an advantage in the agriculture industry rather than operating in a vacuum. Recently atmospheric cold plasma pressure was selected as one of the plasma technologies applied in the agricultural industry for treating the surface of the seed with environmentally friendly technology that produces no hazardous waste. DBD plasma is one of the cold plasma techniques, which can be easily triggered at atmospheric pressure and room temperature.

Abstract:
The art of refining liquid hydrocarbons (crude oil) into diesel, gasoline, and fuel oils was commercially scaled decades ago. Unfortunately, refineries are technologically limited to accepting only a very narrow range of liquid hydrocarbons with very specific properties and minimal contaminates. Unrecyclable, hydrocarbon-based waste is a significant environmental problem increasing every year. According to the Environmental Protection Agency’s 2010 Facts and Figures report, over 92% of waste plastic is not recycled and with a growth rate of approximately 8% per year, there exists a critical need for a viable and environmentally sound, general purpose hydrocarbon-based recycling process. Hydrocarbon streams that fall outside of accepted refinery standards have traditionally been landfilled or melted into products of low value. The barriers and challenges are so great that previous attempts to refine waste plastics into fuel resulted in unviable batch-based machines producing low-value, unstable mixed fuels. However, over the course of three years JBI, Inc. (“JBI”) has broken through these barriers and has designed and built a viable commercial-scale continuous refinery capable of processing a wide-range of hydrocarbon-based waste into ASTM specification fuels. Research and testing of scale-up through 1-gallon, 3000 gallon, multi-kiln, and 40 ton/day processors took place in a plant in Niagara Falls, NY. Technical challenges encountered and lessons learned during process development will be explained in detail. In 2009, our technology was “molecularly audited” by IsleChem, LLC (“IsleChem”) of Grand Island, NY and in 2012, the full-scale plant was viably validated by SAIC Energy, Environment & Infrastructure, LLC (“SAIC”). Numerous sources of waste plastic and users of the resulting fuel products conducted extensive audits of the technology, process, and plant. For the purpose of this paper, processing of waste plastics will be discussed in detail; however, this technology can be applied to other waste hydrocarbon-based materials such as contaminated monomers, waste oils, lubricants and other composite waste streams.

Abstract:
Abstract Management of nuclear materials, including nuclear waste, is a global issue that must be addressed to assure the benefits of nuclear energy while protecting workers, the public and the environment. A key tool in gaining acceptance of nuclear technologies is transparency. Transparency is a combination of technologies and processes that monitor the use, storage, packaging, transportation and disposition of nuclear materials. It provides information to stakeholders for independent assessment of safety and security of the nuclear energy cycle. Application of transparency technology simultaneously promotes non-proliferation and the safety of nuclear energy and waste management. The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) is a deep geologic repository for safe disposal of long-lived, transuranic (TRU) waste. While the WIPP does not require transparency monitoring, its waste management system and operational infrastructure do present excellent opportunities for realistic demonstrations to develop and test transparency strategies and technologies at the back end of the nuclear materials cycle. This paper provides an overview of an integrated set of transparency demonstrations conducted at WIPP. These demonstrations included: 1) tracking of waste shipment, and 2) monitoring of waste containers and environmental parameters in the repository.

Full text
Abstract:
Dry docking is a short period of time where a ship is placed inside a dry dock to finish a list of integrated jobs. During this period, any non-value work, generated by the Shipyard, is consider a waste of time and cost from the customer’s perspective. Different studies were made early to differentiate between value and non-value work done by the shipyard from the customer point of view. However author founds that, there are other different types of waste that generated by the customer himself which affects the project course. Therefore the burden of maximizing value and minimizing waste should be carried by the customer before the shipyard. And the shipyard in return should ensure that, because the loss impact on the shipyard will be more than on the customer. Case studies are utilized to demonstrate the customer’s waste and its impact on the shipyard during dry-docking. Showing the wastes from the shipyard’s perspective, instead of the customer’s, will enhance the customer’s scope and profit at the end of dry-docking. This will be guided by analytical methods to show, in figures, the owner’s loss and profit. The author’s objective, as project manager in a well-known shipyard, is to illustrate what is done and what should be done from the customer’s side to initiate and enforce Lean Ship repair. This paper explores the waste from the shipyard’s perspective, which if adopted by the customer, lean repair will be working in parallel on both sides.

Abstract:
A number of proven technologies applicable to the chemical and physical decontamination of radioactive and non-radioactive contaminants within the environmental remediation and radiological waste management sectors exist. Previous work generally acknowledges that these methods have limitations such as production of large volumes of waste, destruction of the substrate, complex safety considerations [1a] and application of special precautions to meet disposal acceptance criteria [2]. A method that removes a variety of contaminants from the surface and subsurface of porous materials, with minimal contaminated waste arisings, is highly desirable. TechXtract® is a patented, sequential chemical extraction process developed to remove radionuclides, PCBs, and other hazardous organic and inorganic substances from solid materials such as concrete, brick, steel, and exotic metals [3]. The technology uses multifarious task-specific chemical formulations and engineered applications to achieve surface penetration and removal of the contaminants from the atomic voids of metals and other substrates, or the capillaries and gel pores of concretes. TechXtract® is proven to remove a variety of contaminants from various substrates, allowing free release of the substrate as waste for disposal, or re-use, whilst producing minimal secondary waste. Data from testing of TechXtract’s capabilities and evidencing the technology’s efficacy during site based applied research and development is presented here.

Abstract:
Abstract The recovery and reuse of printed circuit boards (PCBs) is becoming crucial in the management of electronic waste that is undergoing an exponential increase. In this study, a simple and eco-friendly process for recycling waste PCBs is discussed. In particular, composite panels were produced by reusing 100% of waste PCBs without the addition of any additive or virgin material. After a two-step grinding process, ground PCB was used to mold panels by direct molding which is pure compression molding without material sorting. Results were very promising in terms of process feasibility and part performances. Molded samples had density about 1.45 g/cm3, flexural modulus and flexural about 3 GPa and 16 MPa, respectively. A smooth surface with low friction coefficient was obtained for the recycled panels. The study shows that despite the presence of metal and other non-metal non-organic fractions, waste PCBs can be re-processed in profitable and environmentally conscious way without the addition of any bonding agent or additive. The recycling technology can be extended to the reuse of the non-metallic fraction only, after separation and recovery of metals.

Abstract:
Population growth, increasing prosperity and changing consumer habits globally are increasing demand for consumer electronics. Further to this, rapid changes in technology, falling prices and consumer appetite for better products have exacerbated e-waste management challenges and seen millions of tons of electronic devices become obsolete. This rapid literature review collates evidence from academic, policy focussed and grey literature on e-waste management in Africa. This report provides an overview of constitutes e-waste, the environmental and health impacts of e-waste, of the barriers to effective e-waste management, the opportunities associated with effective e-waste management and of the limited literature available that estimate future volumes of e-waste. Africa generated a total of 2.9 million Mt of e-waste, or 2.5 kg per capita, the lowest regional rate in the world. Africa’s e-waste is the product of Local and imported Sources of Used Electronic and Electrical Equipment (UEEE). Challenges in e-waste management in Africa are exacerbated by a lack of awareness, environmental legislation and limited financial resources. Proper disposal of e-waste requires training and investment in recycling and management technology as improper processing can have severe environmental and health effects. In Africa, thirteen countries have been identified as having a national e-waste legislation/policy.. The main barriers to effective e-waste management include: Insufficient legislative frameworks and government agencies’ lack of capacity to enforce regulations, Infrastructure, Operating standards and transparency, illegal imports, Security, Data gaps, Trust, Informality and Costs. Aspirations associated with energy transition and net zero are laudable, products associated with these goals can become major contributors to the e-waste challenge. The necessary wind turbines, solar panels, electric car batteries, and other "green" technologies require vast amounts of resources. Further to this, at the end of their lifetime, they can pose environmental hazards. An example of e-waste associated with energy transitions can be gleaned from the solar power sector. Different types of solar power cells need to undergo different treatments (mechanical, thermal, chemical) depending on type to recover the valuable metals contained. Similar issues apply to waste associated with other energy transition technologies. Although e-waste contains toxic and hazardous metals such as barium and mercury among others, it also contains non-ferrous metals such as copper, aluminium and precious metals such as gold and copper, which if recycled could have a value exceeding 55 billion euros. There thus exists an opportunity to convert existing e-waste challenges into an economic opportunity.

Abstract:
South Africa is a country with significant socio-economic development challenges, with the majority of South Africans having limited or non-existent access to basic infrastructure, services, housing and socio-economic opportunities etc. The urban housing backlog currently exceeds 2.4 million houses, with many families living in informal settlements. The Breaking New Grounds Policy, 2014 for the creation of sustainable human settlements, acknowledges the challenges facing human settlements, such as, decreasing human settlements grants allocation, increasing housing backlog, mushrooming of informal settlements and urbanisation. The White Paper on Science, Technology and Innovation (STI), 2019 notes that South Africa has not yet fully benefited from the potential of STI in addressing the socio-economic challenges and seeks to support the circular economy principles which entail a systematic change of moving to a zero or low waste resource-efficient society. Further to this, the Science and Technology Roadmap’s intention is to unlock the potential of South Africa’s human settlements for a decent standard of living through the smart uptake of science, technology and innovation. One such novel technology is the Three-Dimensional (3D) printing technology, which has produced numerous incredible structures around the world. 3D printing is a computer-controlled industrial manufacturing process which encompasses additive means of production to create 3D shapes. The effects of such a technology have a potential to change the world we live in and could subsequently pave the roadmap to improve on housing delivery and reduce the negative effects of conventional construction methods on the environment. To this end, the Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf), in partnership with the Department of Science and Innovation (DSI) and the University of Johannesburg (UJ) hosted the second virtual IID seminar titled: Exploring the Prospects of Using 3D Printing Technology in the South African Human Settlements, on 01 March 2021 to explore the potential use of 3D printing technology in human settlements. The webinar presented preliminary findings from a study conducted by UJ, addressing the following topics: 1. The viability of 3D printing technology 2. Cost comparison of 3D printed house to conventional construction 3. Preliminary perceptions on 3D printing of houses Speakers included: Dr Jennifer Mirembe (NDoHS), Dr Jeffrey Mahachi, Mr Refilwe Lediga, Mr Khululekani Ntakana and Dr Luxien Ariyan, all from UJ. There was a unanimous consensus that collaborative efforts from all stakeholders are key to take advantage of this niche technology. @ASSAf_Official; @dsigovza; @go2uj; @The_DHS; #SA 3D_Printing; #3D Print_Housing; #IID
