Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MANAGEMENT OF ELECTRONIC WASTE Holistic view of the current and future trends in electronic waste management, focusing on recycling, technologies, and regulations Management of Electronic Waste delivers a complete overview of all aspects related to the toxicity characterization of electronic wastes, along with other important topics including resource recovery, recycling strategies, biotechnological advancements, and current perspectives on waste generation and management. The book presents hazards associated with conventional recycling methods and highlights environmentally compatible economic approaches for resource recovery, along with eco-friendly strategies for management of electronic wastes. The high metallic content, heterogeneous and composite nature of e-wastes make them a rich secondary reservoir of metals. The book explores the valuable potential of e-waste and highlights the eco-friendly, sustainable technologies and recycling strategies for the profitable and effective conversion of waste to wealth. Written by a highly qualified and internationally renowned author, Management of Electronic Waste covers sample topics such as: Rise of e-waste generation paired with rising economies and mounting demand for electrical and electronic devices, with a country-by-country breakdown Status of e-waste management and recycling efforts around the world, along with key processes that drive e-waste recycling Macroeconomic trends between global demand and supply for metal resources and the transition of linear to circular economy Bioleaching, an economic and green approach for recovery of metals, from e-waste and other low grade metal repositories Different metallurgical approaches for extraction and recovery of resources from e-waste and their pros and cons Filling a gap on the understudied biotechnological recycling techniques and methods for mitigating environmental pollution caused by electronic waste, Management of Electronic Waste serves as an excellent guide on the subject for electronic waste producers, consumers, recycling industries, policy and law makers, academicians, and researchers.

This guide identifies how building designers and constructors can minimize the generation of waste at the design stage of a building project by using reclaimed components and materials. Authoritative, accessible and much-needed, this book highlights the opportunities for using reclaimed components and materials and recycled-content building products for each element of a building, from structure and foundations to building services and external works. Current experience is illustrated with international case studies and practical advice. It discusses different approaches to designing with recycling in mind, and identifies the key issues to address when specifying reclaimed components and recycled materials in construction work. This book will be invaluable for building professionals including architects, specifiers, structural and service engineers, quantity surveyors, contractors and facilities managers as well as students of architecture and civil engineering.

Book excerpt: This chapter aims to understand and analyze the failure mechanism of Steel Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (SFRC). Fiberreinforced Concrete (FRC) [ACI 116, 2000], Plain concrete fails in a brittle manner at the occurrence of cracking. Ductile fibers in FRC continue to carry stresses well beyond cracking, thus maintaining the structural integrity. The types of fibers using in FRC are Metallic (high-modulus) fibers and Nonmetallic (low-modulus). The metallic fibers to improve the flexural toughness and ductility of concrete for example: Steel, Carbon, and Glass. The Non-metallic (low-modulus) fibers enhance the fresh concrete properties and reduces the plastic-shrinkage cracking. Polypropylene, Cellulose, Nylon, Polyester. The steel fiber adding in to the concrete is called as steel Fiber Reinforced (SFRC) concrete. The SFRC is widely used in structure where fibre reinforcement is not essential for integrity and safety. For example: slabs on grade, rock slope stabilization and repair. The SFRC as substitutes of the shear reinforcement in structures/members and these concepts to cover in many building codes
