Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction The conversion of solid waste (waste glass) and fibers (bamboo fibers) into construction materials and its capability to fight against chemical weathering will be discussed in this study. Now a day‚ it is an exciting and innovative technology in the field of engineering. There are many studies had been formulated by researchers on how to minimize or be free in concrete deterioration in an economical way and some are using high-cost materials

has been able to give good use to solar power thanks to how technology has advanced overtime. Solar power plays an important role in everyday life because it’s currently used in a lot of applications like heat‚ electricity‚ and the desalination of seawater. The application of this type of power is spreading as the environmental costs and limited supply of other power sources such as fossil fuels are increasing. Many new technologies have been developed to make good use of solar energy‚ like solar

the statue of liberty. As we left La Coruna‚ I realized I could hardly stand the ride with the joy of going to America. While on Procand‚ the name of the ship‚ I played solitaire or go fish with others. During my time on the ships I got used to horrid seawater smell. From time to time I would go up from steerage to see the sky‚ and get some long needed fresh air. As Procand neared the Statue of Liberty I realized that we made it to America. The sight was very beautiful. I couldn’t help‚ but cry after the books

Today’s modern world has led to the biggest problem faced in history: global warming. Today’s fast-growing industrialized economy is causing serious environmental issues such as extinction of much of the life on this planet‚ temperature changes‚ and sea level rise. One simple way of reducing the effects of global warming is changing our way of living. One benefit of reducing the industrialized economy of today is that natural habitats will last longer. A fifth of the world’s known mammals‚ a third

The men were in the ocean for four straight days without food or water and because of that the men began drinking the seawater‚ which caused hypernatremia an excess of salt in the body.

by the fact that‚ with 0mL of fresh water‚ the density was 1.108 g/mL For every milliliter of fresh‚ pure water added‚ the density decreases by 0.015 grams per milliliter. I believe the density responded this way due to the fact that on average‚ seawater has a density of 1.025 g/mL. In this experiment‚ I added large amounts of freshwater (50mL total). Freshwater has almost no salt content‚ so its density is 1.000 g/mL. With each addition of freshwater‚ the density had to have gone down since a growing

For over 400million years sharks have been adapting themselves perfectly for life in the ocean. Their varied habitats‚ diets and physiology has meant that for many of them‚ these adaptions have been slightly different. The key adaptions are those that enable the shark to swim‚ breath‚ feed and reproduce. Large squalene filled livers negates the need for a shark to have a swim bladder. The liver‚ up to 25% of the overall body weight‚ counteracts the weight of the dermal denticles‚ teeth and

Global warming is also having a corrupt influence on the salmon offspring’s. Salmons favour temperatures below 7°C‚ as the seawater is begging to get warmer fishes are slowly going northward. Thus‚ this impacts Canada’s salmon productions and entirely the West Coast fisheries. For some time there has been a quarrel between Canada and the United States of who gets what‚ and in
