Recycling Of Plastics

Plastics are an essential part to our daily life. For instance, without plastics, 400 percent more material by weight, and 200 percent more material by volume would be needed to make packaging. The recycling of plastics continued to grow in 1997. More than 1.3 billion pounds of post-consumer plastics packaging were recycled in the United States.

Alginates

Alginates are hydrocolloids, water soluble biopolymers extracted from brown seaweed. Alginates occurs naturally in seaweed mainly in the form of calcium, magnesium and sodium salts.The chemical composition of alginate varies according to seaweed species and structure. Many countries supply seaweed as a raw material to the alginate industry. These include USA, Mexico, Chile, Scotland, Ireland, France, Norway, Iceland, Canada, China, Japan, Korea, Australia and South Africa.

Feldspar

The feldspars are by far the most abundant group of minerals and are found in igneous, metamorphic and many sedimentary rocks. Felsdpars are framework silicates where each silica tetrahedra share all corners with its four neighbouring tetrahedra. World feldspar consumption totalled 13.9 million tonnes and is growing on average 2% per annum. Turkey is the leading exporter, accounting for 33% of all exports by quantity, while Italy and the USA remain the leading importers. In Asia production of feldspar is worth over US$180 million.

Kaolin

Kaolin has a range of industrial applications, which are grouped in three main market areas; paper,ceramics and performance minerals. Demand is dominated by the paper industry, which accounts for about 70% of total sales. Japan is outstandingly important in use of high value kaolins, and around 85% of this is used in the papermaking industry in Japan. Fibreglass manufacturing in Taiwan has been also a very important consumer of imported kaolin, and it is only now that this is being stemmed, mainly by re-location of several major fibreglass producers to China.

Filler Minerals

Mineral fillers make up less than 6 percent of the hot mix asphalt concrete by mass, and generally less than about 3 percent. A typical mineral filler completely passes a 0.060 mm (No. 30) sieve, with at least 65 percent of the particles passing the 0.075 mm sieve. Dry-ground calcium carbonates are among the least expensive white fillers available. Wet-ground products are produced in finer particle size ranges. Wet-ground fine and ultrafine products are also sold in 75% solids slurry form for highvolume paint and paper applications.Calcium carbonate is also the most widely used filler in adhesives and sealants.

Wood Flooring

Wood flooring is available in different patterns. The most popular are planks and parquet.Planks can be purchased in uniform or random lengths, in a variety of widths, and with pegs or butterfly keys.The parquet pieces are put togetherinto squares and cut into a geometric design, making the parquet effect. Hardwood flooring makes an excellent flooring choice. It’s a durable material, available in a vast range of species and colors.Unlike other flooring types, hardwood flooring is easy to maintain and provides a healthy, hypoallergenic environment, and is a recyclable product. Wood Flooring in the U.S., indicates that the market will continue growing at a compoundannual rate of 7% from 2006 to 2010, bringing the demand for wood flooring at the end of the decade to more than $3 billion.

Indigo

Indigo is among the oldest dyes to be used for textile dyeing and printing. Many Asian countries, such as India, China, and Japan, have used indigo as a dye for centuries. The dye was also known to ancient civilizations in Egypt, Greece, Rome, Britain, Peru, and Africa.World consumption of indigo in the 1800s was very large indeed, so in 1866 a German chemist named Adolph von Baeyer began his studies of the pigment and eventually elucidated its chemical structure so that it could be synthesized commercially.At the end of the 19th century, Germany was able to produce synthetic indigotine cheaper than the natural dyestuff, and thus Germany then took charge of supplying indigo.

Bromine

Bromine is the only Liquid nonmetallic element at room temperature. It is a heavy, mobile, reddish-brown liquid, that evaporates easily at standard temperature and pressures in a red vapor (its color resembles nitrogen dioxide) that has a strong disagreeable odor resembling that of chlorine. United States is the major world producer of Bromine, followed by Israel.
The Chinese market demand for bromine and derivatives will increase by 7.3% annually to reach 336,700 metric tons in the year 2010.

Teniposide

Teniposide is a cancer (antineoplastic) medication. Teniposide interferes with the growth of cancer cells and slows their growth and spread in the body. Teniposide produces its anti-cancer effects by inhibiting an enzyme, topoisomerase, which is responsible for maintaining structural function and integrity of DNA. By inhibiting the normal activity of topoisomerase, teniposide inhibits proper DNA synthesis, ultimately causing cellular death.

Ethylene Diamine

Ethylene diamine is a strongly alkaline, colorless to yellowish liquid, with ammonia-like odor, completely miscible with water and soluble in alcohol. It is widely used as a building block for polymers and as a ligand for coordination compounds. Ethylenediamines are produced by the reaction of aqueous ammonia with 1,2-dichloroethane. Ethylene diamine is used in large quantities for production of many industrial chemicals. The principal hazards that arise in working with ethylenediamine (EDA) are those associated with similar organic amines; namely, a corrosive action on skin and eyes.

Rice Husk Ash based project information on CD ROM

Rice Husk Ash based project information on CD ROM
RHA is a general term describing all types of ash produced from burning rice husks. In practice, thetype of ash varies considerably according to the burning technique. The silica in the ash undergoesstructural transformations depending on the conditions (time, temperature etc) of combustion. At550°C – 800°C amorphous ash is formed and at temperatures greater than this, crystalline ash isformed. These types of silica have different properties and it is important to produce ash of thecorrect specification for the particular end use.
