Abstract A friendly technology with the environment which consists of the elaboration of carbon steels through specific proceedings to powder metallurgy has in view the contribution of methane gas in iron powders at the same time with sintering. This technology is advantageous from various points of view: the final product is a part which does not need afterward processing with solid waste result and therefore the specific energy consume is lower, the wear and corrosion behavior is similar to...

Abstract:The aim of this work is to obtain sintered porous membranes with graded structure for microfiltration by sedimentation andsintering of metallic powders. Our previous studies have demonstrated the possibility of obtaining sintered porous materials withgraded structure by sedimentation. In this paper, spherical nickel particles were used having a grain size in the 2-90 µm rangemeasured by the laser scattering particle size analyzer. The powders were sedimented into a sintering die in a s...

Abstract Recently several innovative suggestions on how industrial wastes can be utilised in new products have been presented in literature, e.g. as filler or additives in concrete, incorporated in ceramic materials to produce glass-ceramics and pavement construction. In this work, metallurgical materials from secondary aluminium scrap processing and glass waste derived from treatments of packaging and fluorescent lamps were considered for fabrication of new ceramic materials using powder te...

This research was focused on the valorization of agro industrial waste/by products available in the local industry with the kilometer zero (km 0) concept, as a replacement of virgin raw materials (clay) to elaborate lightweight aggregates (LWAS). The alternative raw materials were employed as pore forming agent, in order to reduce sintering temperature and energy consumption of the furnace. The three technical nutrients studied were provided for local food industries: sludge from wastewater trea...

Inorganic ceramic materials is receiving more attention in recent times due to their unique characteristics which include different pore structures, hydrophilic surfaces, high chemical, thermal and mechanical stabilities that offer avenues for application in water treatment. In the present work, cost-effective clay ceramic water filters of different designs were developed from clay (50, 60, and 70) %, sawdust (15, 20, 25, and 35) %, grog (5, 10 and 15)% ratios plus 5% bone char by volume and ...
