Geochemical Effects of Groundwater Interaction with Steel Slag Aggregate Used in Road Construction

:This study assessed the effects of groundwater interacting with aggregate produced from steel slag, used as a ballast material in a waterproofing system protecting the road surface under high groundwater table conditions. Field investigations were carried out, with hydrochemical...

Metallurgical Waste Landfills as Potential Anthropogenic Deposits

Metallurgical slags produced in the zinc–lead, copper, iron and steel metallurgical industries are characterized by a variety of technical parameters and varying chemical and mineral compositions, which depend on the type of raw material and the technological process selected and...

Analysis of the Influence of Selected Parameters of a Cold Crucible Induction Furnace on Its Electrical Efficiency

This publication presents the results of numerical simulations concerning changes in the cold crucible design, the influence of the cold crucible melting process parameters, and the impact of the computational model on electrical efficiency and, consequently, on energy savings. T...

Application of machine learning and deep learning methods for the prediction of near misses and occupational accidents in the construction industry

Abstract Occupational accidents remain one of the key challenges for modern work systems, both from the perspective of employee health and life, and in terms of economic, social, and organisational losses for society. Despite the significant diagnostic value of near misses, data...

In-Situ anchoring of amorphous NixB nanoparticles onto Nb2CTx MXene nanosheets for high-performance asymmetric supercapacitors

An amorphous nickel boride/niobium carbide MXene (Ni x B/Nb 2 CT x ) composite was designed and synthesized via a combined HF-assisted etching and in-situ chemical reduction strategy. The uniform anchoring of 0D Ni x B nanoparticles within the multilayered Nb 2 CT x nanosheets le...

Molecular and Supramolecular Pathways for CO 2 Separation Membranes: Amine‐Functionalized Silica and Hydrogen‐Bonded Organic Frameworks

Efficient CO 2 capture from flue gas is fundamentally limited by the trade‐off between permeability, selectivity, and chemical stability. Amine‐functionalized sorbents (AFS) achieve high selectivity via strong chemisorption, but suffer from kinetic limitations, pore blocking, and...

Gate-to-Gate Benchmarking of Electricity Use and Electricity-Related CO2 Emissions in Mechanical Cable Recycling: A Descriptive Industrial Case Report from Poland

Cable scrap is a high-grade secondary copper resource, but transparent plant-scale evidence on the operational energy and emissions performance of mechanical separation lines remains limited. This descriptive industrial case report presents a non-replicated comparison of complete...

Deep learning method for wear assessment and regeneration support in gear hobbing tools

Efficient monitoring and regeneration of cutting tools are essential for maintaining product quality and process continuity in modern manufacturing environments. Consistent and robust assessment of tool wear remains a practical challenge, particularly when evaluations rely heavil...
