Effect of Bacillus Subtilis on Corrosion of Steel in Reinforced Cement Concrete
Abstract: Abstract Concrete is one of the most used building materials due to its cost- effectiveness, ease of availability, and versatility. It is the backbone of modern construction, being widely applied in infrastructure, residential, and commercial projects. However, it is particularly vulnerable to crack formation, which significantly reduces its service life. These cracks compromise structural integrity by allowing water ingress, which leads to the corrosion of reinforcing steel, eventually making the …

Nanocoating and Electrospray Techniques Use to Mitigation Corrosion Sculptures
Abstract: The most sculptures of the world are created by the brass, bronze, iron, silver, gold and metalloid. They come in contact of corrosive pollutants to produce chemical, electrochemical and biochemical reactions and develop various form of corrosion like uniform corrosion, galvanic corrosion, pitting corrosion, stress corrosion and crevice corrosion. The corrosive gases CO2, NO2 and SO2 concentrations increase in atmosphere rapidly after industrialization. The major contributors of these gases are …

Nanotechnology based solutions for control of Agricultural pests
Abstract: Application of nanotechnology for the control of agricultural pests is an emerging field of research. It is driven by the realization that they are more effective and are equally competent in terms of their biocidal potential and that too at significantly low concentrations as compared to conventional pesticides. Unscrupulous application of larger volumes of chemical pesticides has many harmful effects including, acute toxicity to animals and human beings (up on …

Study the Corrosive Effect of Greenhouse Gases on Metallic and Non-metallic Materials
Abstract: Carbon dioxide is a major corrosive pollutant for building materials. It enters inside materials by diffusion or osmosis process and in presence of moisture it produces H2CO3 which decrease the pH value and accelerates chemical and electrochemical reaction with building materials. The carbonation reaction produces deterioration inside and outside of building materials. It produces corrosion reaction with metallic bar and disbanding with concrete. CO2 reacts with Ca (OH)2 and Mg(OH)2 …

Mass Transport of Heavy Metals in Soil Columns Amended with Biochar Nanoparticles
Abstract: Biochar has potential as a valuable material for removing heavy metals from wastewater. The biochar obtained by pyrolysis of the Pomegranate Peel (PPBC) under an oxygen-limited atmosphere in a muffle furnace at 450°C. The biochar was also analyzed through SEM and FTIR for identification of particle size and functional groups. Therefore, the present work aims to study the effect of adding biochar to the soil columns (10 cm length and …
