Influence of Different Quenching Media on the Mechanical Properties of Mild Steel – A Case Study of Coconut Oil, Mineral Oil, Jatropha Oil, and Water
Abstract: This study elucidates how local cooling agents, such as coconut oil and jatropha oil, influence the mechanical characteristics of heat-treated mild steel. Tensile testing, Brinell hardness testing, and microstructural analysis were conducted on both heat-treated and untreated samples. The results show observable differences in the heat-treated materials’ mechanical characteristics. Specifically, the yield strength increased across all quenched media, while the ultimate tensile strength decreased for samples cooled with coconut oil …

Study of Groundwater and Surface Water Remediation
Abstract: Groundwater remediation is the process of treating contaminated groundwater by removing contaminants or converting them to harmless chemicals. Water that saturates the pore space in the subsurface and is located beneath the ground surface is known as groundwater. Between 25% and 40% of the world's drinking water comes from boreholes and dug wells. Farmers need groundwater to irrigate crops, while industry use it to make everyday items. Even though most …
