Fluoride Distribution and Related Health Problems
Abstract: Fluoride is one of the very few chemicals that cause significant effects in people depending upon their concentration. Although present naturally in soil, water and air, fluoride consumption occurs largely through water. Fluoride intake at low concentration is known to cause beneficial effects on teeth, however at high concentrations; it may give rise to a number of adverse effects. These range from mild dental fluorosis to crippling skeletal fluorosis as …

Environmental implications of stubble and their usages as soil and concrete reinforcement
Abstract: Stubble burning has been reckoned among the major contributors to air pollution, especially in North India. It is a significant source of gaseous pollutants causing serious damage to human health and the environment. The situation is more hazardous due to the intensive rice-wheat rotation system which generates a large amount of stubble with no significant use as good as burning due to poor knowledge of the management of stubble. It …

Stabilization of Red soil by using Boiler Feed Ash
Abstract: Red soil is the one of the irrigation soil. Most of plants are grown in this soil. The red soil has the most iron content when compared to other soils and it has also got various chemical properties. The red soil has less bearing strength and more water permeability. By the addition of fly ash and BFA to the red soil the liquid limit, plastic limit and bearing strength can …
