History: In ancient cities‚ wastes were thrown onto unpaved streets and roadways‚ where they were left to accumulate. It was not until 320 BCE in Athens that the first known law forbidding this practice was established. At that time a system for waste removal began to evolve in Greece and in the Greek-dominated cities of the eastern Mediterranean. In ancient Rome‚ property owners were responsible for cleaning the streets fronting their property. But organized waste collection was associated only

The Five Platonic Solids The five platonic solids are the tetrahedron‚ cube‚ octahedron‚ dodecahedron‚ and a icosahedron. They are named for the greek philosopher Plato. Plato wrote about them in the Timaeus (c.360 B.C.) in which he paired each of the four classical elements earth‚ air‚ water‚ and fire with a regular solid. Earth was paired with the cube‚ air with the octahedron‚ water with the icosahedron‚ and fire with the tetrahedron. The fifth Platonic solid‚ the dodecahedron‚ Plato says that

POTENTIAL SOURCES OF WASTE IN CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTION AND THE POTENTIAL OF BIM IN WASTE MINIMIZATION By MATHANBALAJI SABHAPATHI POTENTIAL SOURCES OF WASTE IN CONSTRUCTION: INTRODUCTION: Construction industry is the important source of waste production in the world almost in all the countries. The construction process currently generates significant quantities of waste: about a fifth of all waste and up to 40% of all solid waste is attributable to the construction sector. As much as 10% to 30%

Experiment 2: Separation of a Mixture of Solids Purpose: This experiment allowed me to learn different separation techniques for various substances based on their specific chemical properties. Procedure: I began this experiment by using a magnet to pick up and collect the iron filings out of the mixture. Then the sand was separated by placing the mixture into a beaker and boiling it in distilled water in order to dissolve the salt and benzoic acid‚ once boiling the liquid was poured out leaving
