  • Use of residual materials for synthesis of lightweight granulates by thermal treatment process
    Applied Clay Science, 2016
    Co-Authors: Ndue Kanari, Frédéric Diot, Christophe Gauthier, Jacques Yvon
    Abstract:

    The general scope of this paper is to explore the formulation and the production, by thermochemical transformations, of expanded lightweight granulates incorporating residual materials as kaolinitic waste, sewage sludge, schist fines and wasted glass. The possible application fields are light concretes, road engineering, water treatment and hydroponic agriculture. The benefits can be multiple: creation of new resources from wastes; preservation of primary resources; Humid Zones on the river banks and the natural course of rivers; management of hazardous residual materials. Tests on the thermal treatment and the thermochemical expansion were conducted in horizontal experimental set-up including a static electrical furnace. Raw material mixtures and treatment products were examined by visible microscopy, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (IR) in order to understand the thermal behaviours of the chosen samples. Data analysis of the experimental results showed the possibility of obtaining the expanded granulates at temperatures lower than or equal to 1100 degrees C for a firing time of a few minutes. The optimal temperature for their synthesis is a function of fluxes content and decreased significantly with increase of the wasted glass amount. Obtained granulates have a density lower than unity and they have good mechanical strength fulfilling the conditions for their use as building materials. Sewage sludge, wasted glass as well as incinerator ashes can be used as alternative materials, among other industrial solid wastes, in the formulation of lightweight clay and schist based granulates. Results of this work try to meet the principles of sustainable mining and decreased pressure on the environment.

  • Thermochemical transformation of residual materials by synthesizing lightweight granulates
    2014
    Co-Authors: Ndue Kanari, Frédéric Diot, Robert Joussemet, Jacques Yvon
    Abstract:

    The general scope of this concern is to explore the formulation and the production, by thermochemical transformations, of expanded lightweight granulates incorporating residual materials as industrial and sewage sludge, schists, kaolinic waste, wasted glass… Depending on their nature, these materials contain fluxes, calorific power substances and potential pollutants. The possible application fields are light concretes, road engineering, water treatment and hydroponic agriculture. The benefits can be multiple: create new resources from wastes; preserve alluvial resources, Humid Zones on the river banks and the natural course of rivers; manage hazardous residual materials. Tests on the thermal treatment and the thermochemical expansion were conducted in horizontal experimental set-up including a static electrical furnace. Raw mixtures and treatment products were examined by visible microscopy, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (IR). Data analysis of the experimental results showed the possibility of obtaining the expanded granulates at temperatures lower than 1200 °C for a firing time around 10 minutes. The optimal temperature for their synthesis is a function of fluxes content and decreased dramatically with increase of the wasted glass amount. Obtained granulates have a density lower than unity and they have a good mechanical strength fulfilling the conditions for their use as building materials. Sewage sludge, wasted glass as well as incinerator ashes can be used as alternative materials, among other industrial solid wastes, in the formulation of lightweight clay and schist based granulates. Results of this work try to meet the principles of sustainable development preserving both the resources and the environment.

  • the impact of urban form on building energy and cost efficiency in temperate Humid Zones
    Journal of building engineering, 2021
    Co-Authors: Suzi Dilara Mangan, Gul Koclar Oral, Idil Erdemir Kocagil, Irem Sozen
    Abstract:

    Abstract As residential buildings and urban areas account for a significant proportion of overall energy consumption, priority should be assigned to this dimension of housing and urban design solutions. This study developed an analytical framework to support coherent decision making in the early design stage regarding the impacts of different urban configurations odn building energy- and cost-efficiency. In line with this goal, a performance-oriented parametric simulation method was used to assess urban forms in relation to the principles of early design stage exploration and iteration. Using 120 urban forms developed for Istanbul as a temperate-Humid climate, the study analysed the effect levels of urban (i.e., building height to street width [H/W ratio] and orientation) and building (i.e., typology, plan type and no. of floors) design parameters. The effect of each alternative on building performance was determined by calculating annual total energy consumption (heating, cooling and lighting), energy-related CO2 emissions, and life cycle costs. The results indicated that building height and H/W ratio played a more significant role than orientation in the energy and economic performance of the residential building used here in three urban forms (rectangular pavilion, rectangular slab and square pavilion). Additionally, to enhance guidance for the control of building performance in terms of energy and cost efficiency, the study results were presented comparatively to facilitate constructive and quantitative feedback. This approach bridges an existing gap by synthesising best practices for decision makers based on multiple performance objectives and solution spaces, contributing to more comprehensive understanding and awareness and, consequently, to more sustainable urban development planning.
