Industrial Explosives and their Applications for Rock Excavation focuses on applications of industrial explosives in civil and mining engineering works.
Every day, every one of us contributes to the waste problem but, despite being a part of our lives, waste is poorly understood, even by those who should know better.
This very unique research-oriented edited collection introduces waste and pollution treatment methods that can be adopted at local and international levels and examines appropriate resource management strategies for environmentally related issues.
Superheated steam drying (SSD) has long been recognized for several major advantages it offers over other convective dryers, including high energy efficiency by utilization of energy in the exhaust steam, higher product quality due to the absence of oxygen, and avoidance of fire and explosion hazards.
Metallurgical slags are generated as a by-product of smelting during ironmaking, steelmaking, and the production of ferroalloys and non-ferrous metals.
