This work presents an experimental study on the physico-mechanical and microstructural characteristics of stabilised soils and the effect of wetting and drying cycles on their durability as road subgrade materials. The durability of expansive road su... Read More about Wet–dry cycles and microstructural characteristics of expansive subgrade treated with sustainable cementitious waste materials.

Modified orange peel waste as a sustainable material for the adsorption of contaminants (2023)
Journal Article
Uloaku, M., Abbey, S. J., Ifelebuegu, A. O., & Eyo, E. U. (2023). Modified orange peel waste as a sustainable material for the adsorption of contaminants. Materials, 16(3), 1092. https://doi.org/10.3390/ma16031092

World orange production is estimated at 60 million tons per annum, while the annual production of orange peel waste is 32 million tons. According to available data, the adsorption capacity of orange peel ranges from 3 mg/g to 5 mg/g, while their wate...
