Hydrogen Peroxide Decomposition to Water: A Review Process
Abstract: The term "thermal" refers to the presence of heat. Breaking down is the action of decomposing. If a materials temperature is raised, it goes through a chemical process called thermal breakdown. At high temperatures, thermal breakdown processes occur. Before breaking into the products, the reactants absorb a lot of energy. The reactant is the beginning chemical. It decomposes to simpler entities, that might be either elements or compounds. Hydrogen peroxide …

The Lifespan of a Building: Evolution and Durability
Abstract: Abstract The structural lifespan of buildings and infrastructure decreases over time due to material degradation, with water penetration being a major contributing factor. Excess moisture weakens construction materials, leading to deterioration and reduced service life. Water absorption plays a critical role in structural degradation, particularly affecting foundations when infiltration occurs below ground level. In bridge structures, water-induced foundation instability can lead to failure, while in roadways, moisture weakens pavement layers, …

Intentional Unsustainability in Waterfront Regeneration: A Case Study of Sabarmati Riverfront Ahmedabad
Abstract: Indian urban riverfronts have largely been neglected and have lost both on ecological and urban aspects. Large tracts of riverfront lands are often encroached, both illegally and quasi-legally, and essential flood plains have been destroyed. Against this background, the development of the Sabarmati riverfront was an opportunity to reenergize Ahmedabad and unfortunately became a pilot project for other cities. The project reclaims about 200 hectares of land and creates around …

Analysis of the Degradation of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) in a Polluted Stagnant Salt and Fresh Water Environment
Abstract: TPH dispersion in both water media was investigated using a transport model that included convective and diffusion factors. This model was used to track the TPH concentration in both vertical and horizontal dimensions. Therefore, it was expected that diffusion alone would regulate TPH transport or spreading in the x-direction, or horizontal direction, while diffusion and convection caused by gravity would control TPH transport in the vertical direction. As a result, …
