The replacement levels for IS range from 10 to 30% while those for recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) range from 0 to 50%. Based on the experimental outcomes, the predicted equations for strength and water absorption characteristics were established. Furthermore, the statistical analysis was performed, indicating the desired responses thereby validating the efficiency of the tested properties of IS–RAC concrete. The successful analysis indicates the optimum constituent mix of 24.8% IS and 26.9% RCA for maximum strength and water absorption behaviour. Finally, a comparative environmental estimation was performed by life cycle assessment, describing a reduction of nearly 12.28% and 22% in carbon dioxide emissions and eco-cost in optimized concrete respectively.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100254,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner Materials","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100210"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772397623000436/pdfft?md5=82094322079daa19583f2e4f21ddbdee&pid=1-s2.0-S2772397623000436-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"92044312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This technology produces a high-quality base course material with decreased energy consumption, carbon footprint, and raw material usage. Cement has been used as a common additive to improve these mixes strength and moisture resistance. However, some drawbacks are also associated with cement, such as negative environmental impacts, high costs, and low-temperature deficiencies. Asphaltenes is a by-product of oil-sand bitumen with little commercial value in current practice. To investigate the impact of asphaltenes on improving the rheological properties of asphalt binder, a series of binder characteristics tests using a dynamic shear rheometer, breaking time and microscopic evaluation is conducted on modified asphalt emulsion with asphaltenes. Asphaltenes is then added to asphalt emulsion-stabilized granular material, to be compared with mixtures prepared with cement. Two asphaltenes and cement-modified mixes are prepared and compared to unmodified mixtures. All mixes are tested for permanent deformation and moisture sensitivity using a Hamburg wheel tracker and flow number test, while the low-temperature properties are evaluated using indirect tensile strength tests. Dynamic modulus is also evaluated to analyze the viscoelastic behavior of the mixes. The results of this study reveal a considerable increase in the rutting resistance of asphalt mixes by adding 1% of both additives (by total weight of mix), and asphaltenes-modification shows less adverse impacts at intermediate and low temperatures than cement-modification.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100254,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner Materials","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100208"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49701937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Qualitative strategies, including the use of natural materials, have been long been defined to guide more environmentally friendly product development. Quantitative life cycle assessment tools indicate that there are cases in which polymers, which may not be considered natural, can be less ecologically impactful materials to use in a product. Whether qualitative or quantitative product development tools are used, if the choices made by new product creators are not consistent with the perceptions of a product’s customers, they may not influence the purchase of a more sustainable product over a less sustainable product. The objective of this study is to assess how people perceive the sustainabilities of polymer products. A set of ten, nearly identical, injection-molded drinking cups was given to research subjects for a Kansei engineering analysis regarding their perceptions of the products’ sustainabilities. Participants evaluated the cups on ten qualitative design strategies for sustainability, including durability, preciousness, recyclability and toxicity. Results show that perceptions of four of the ten attributes: durability, degradability, rawness and naturalness, most strongly influence the overall perception of the product’s sustainability. Four other attributes: expense, luxuriousness, preciousness and rareness influence the product’s overall perception of worth, which is conversely connected to a product’s perception of sustainability. The attributes of polymer products that people recognize as affecting sustainability can be used by product developers, as well as chemists and material engineers, to develop and specify more appropriate and accepted sustainable products and polymers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100254,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner Materials","volume":"9 ","pages":"Article 100194"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49711310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Then, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model is developed for the prediction of TGA data. Pearson correlation coefficient analysis reveals that the influence of environment heating rate on biomass thermal decomposition is larger than that of fuel properties. By inputting biomass elemental/proximate analysis and heating rate, the ANN model successfully predicts 8 key TGA parameters, namely, pyrolysis-onset temperature, peak pyrolysis temperature, oxidation-dominant temperature, peak oxidation temperature, oxidation-end temperature, peak pyrolysis rate, oxidation-dominant rate, and peak oxidation rate, with R<sup>2</sup> values greater than 0.98. A better performance can be achieved when all ten input features are considered. Final, an open-access online software, Intelligent Fuel Thermal Analysis (IFTA), is developed to predict thermal-oxidative decomposition across a wide range of heating rates and biomass types.
