Despite these advantages, the widespread adoption of AM in construction faces hurdles, primarily due to the prohibitive costs of large-scale concrete printers — typically ranging from $180,000 to over $1 million — and technological constraints that impede research and development efforts within the construction sector. To address these challenges, our study focuses on designing, developing, calibrating and evaluating an affordable lab-scale 3D printer specifically tailored for cement-based materials, aiming to lower the entry barrier for AM research in construction. This paper presents a proof-of-concept for a simple, yet functional printing technology that meet the requirements for research studies. The study details the development process, from the conceptual design to the calibration of printing parameters. The development process included the assessment of preliminary extrusion system designs integrated with the motion systems of a fused deposition modeling 3D printer. Subsequently, material studies were carried out to determine optimal material mix compositions and ratios. A comprehensive calibration of printing parameters using statistical analysis was proposed to ensure consistent and quality printing. The printability and applicability of the proposed small-scale 3D printer were assessed by printing samples and testing their thermal properties. Cost analysis showed that the proposed 3D printer, costing $273, offers benefits compared to existing market alternatives. The study illustrates the potential of small-scale 3D printers to facilitate construction research and practices, thereby promoting the development of sustainable construction methods.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34618,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner Engineering and Technology","volume":"22 ","pages":"Article 100786"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666790824000661/pdfft?md5=c0cc2d26a890a2a398b4261e262cc792&pid=1-s2.0-S2666790824000661-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142048621","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}

In particular, studies in the Philippines show that the maximum capacity of the organic decomposition processes of agricultural products is exceeded due to the increasing agricultural activities. On the other hand, in the construction industry, cement production accounts for billions of tons of carbon dioxide emissions yearly. To address the said biowaste disposal problem, and environmental implications of the growing construction industry, this study evaluated the potential of utilizing coconut shell ash (CSA) and coconut shell granules (CSG) in concrete production as alternatives to cement and sand, being the conventional aggregates, respectively. Additionally, coconut coir (CC) was incorporated as fiber reinforcements in concrete. The experiment consisted of 15 mix designs using different proportions of CSA and CSG, ranging from 0% to 20%, and CC fiber reinforcements, ranging from 0% to 2%. The tests conducted on fresh concrete involved measuring its slump and unit weight, while the 28-day cured samples were tested for compressive and tensile strengths. Results showed that high concentrations of CSA, CSG and CC, when combined in the concrete mix, leads to poor workability; on the other hand, the modified mixes generally had lower unit weights than the conventional concrete. These are associated to the higher absorption rate, but lower density of the said agri-wastes than the conventional aggregates. In terms of the compressive and tensile strengths, all modified mixes produced lower strengths than the conventional concrete. Nonetheless, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was utilised to model the relationship between the different independent variables considered in the study, namely CSA, CSG and CC contents, and their corresponding response to the compressive and tensile strengths. Based on the generated RSM Model, the optimum combination for obtaining the maximum strength consisted of 2% CC, resulting in a compressive and tensile strength of 23.046 MPa and 3.315 MPa, respectively. Overall, CSG-CSA coconut coir reinforced concrete is found to be a viable sustainable alternative for structures requiring low-strength, non-structural concrete, such as concrete slab patios and pathways.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34618,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner Engineering and Technology","volume":"21 ","pages":"Article 100779"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666790824000594/pdfft?md5=4002028e1f96fc15dc1a0cfd71099e3b&pid=1-s2.0-S2666790824000594-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141736507","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}

Five different shapes of spring-wire (as shown in the graphical abstract) are investigated and compared to a flat SAH (without turbulator). The effects of helical diameter, pitch, and wire diameter on the performance of the system are comprehensively analyzed for all five mentioned geometries. The results reveal that the turbulator significantly enhances the thermal efficiency of the SAH within the absorber section. Rectangular cross section shape shows higher enhanced <em>Nu</em> number compared to the other cross section shapes. However, considering both heat transfer and pressure drop, the circular turbulator exhibits the optimal performance. Larger helical diameter, helical pitch and wire diameter, augments, decreases and increases the value of <em>Nu</em>/Nu<sub>s</sub> respectively. Generally, higher increased <em>Nu</em> number also shows higher pumping power as well and that is why thermohydraulic performance parameter (THPP) is considered as well. Larger helical diameter, and helical pitch decreases and increases thermohydraulic performance respectively. For instance, the circular turbulator's THPP rises by approximately 17.5% as the pitch increases from 50 mm to 250 mm. However, the impact of wire diameter on THPP does not show a unified curve trend and depends on the shape of the turbulator.

The Indonesian government has been active in promoting the use of renewable energy, but the transition from fossil energy is still faced with various challenges, including limited technology and adequate infrastructure. Apart from that, Indonesia's large potential in coal is the main factor slowing down this energy transition. One promising alternative is to convert coal into Dimethyl Ether (DME) through the gasification process, which is a thermochemical process for converting solid fuel into gas, producing syngas containing H<sub>2</sub>, CO, and CH<sub>4</sub>. Synthesis purification is essential to produce high-purity DME. This process involves the use of filter materials such as zeolite and rice husk charcoal to remove contaminants such as sulfur. Zeolite, with its chemical absorption properties and regular pore structure, is effective in absorbing H<sub>2</sub>S from syngas. Meanwhile, rice husk charcoal, which is an agricultural waste rich in silica and has a porous structure, has shown potential as an absorbent material to reduce H<sub>2</sub>S content in gas. In research on the use of various filter material compositions in the up-draft type coal gasification process with CuO–ZnO–Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> and ZSM-5 catalysts, it was found that a 3:7 ratio for zeolite and rice husk charcoal provided optimal performance. This ratio not only increases CH<sub>4</sub> and CO levels in syngas, but is also effective in reducing H<sub>2</sub>S content. The research results showed that the highest DME production reached 90.10% at a ratio of 3:7, while at a ratio of 2:8 and 5:5, production was 81.61% and 73.64% respectively.

The present study examines how an approach based on displacement of product function and direct calculation of environmental impacts across partial life cycles might remedy these issues. A calculation framework based on the concept of environmental value and its depreciation along a life cycle is presented. Results for two value chains with qualitatively quite different features illustrate the utility and flexibility of the framework. The work offers significant conceptual advances in both recognising and measuring the relative impacts of using newer or older products providing the same function. As such it determines tangible environmental benefits for the use of older products which is a pre-requisite for reduced overall consumption and macro-level sustainability improvement.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34618,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner Engineering and Technology","volume":"21 ","pages":"Article 100774"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666790824000545/pdfft?md5=56cd8d89f2b8aadf8c3eea7bae4beeb7&pid=1-s2.0-S2666790824000545-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141594333","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}
