Most companies are creating products with a cradle-to-cradle mentality. By creating a product designed to one day become waste is not sustainable or realistic for the environment. Environmental cycles exist as closed loop cycles, such as the carbon or nitrogen cycles. A sustainable solution in combating the increased production of MSW is for the industries to create products with the idea that it will be reused. The product would act as if it were just a small part in a big, closed loop cycle…

The Rangifer Tarandus, better known as caribou or reindeer, is an herbivorous species living in the tundra. Tundras have a vastly cold climate, with limited vegetation. Caribou are similar to deer; however they are much bigger with a shoulder standing height of 2.8-4.9 feet, and females weigh 175 to 225 pounds, while males weigh about 350 to 400 pounds (Caribou). Reindeer were first found in Norway and were only known as Reindeer, once people started realizing how beneficial the Reindeer were…

Introduction Carbon has the special trait of being able to bond with almost any other molecules and form the organic molecules essential for life as we know it to exist. Since carbon is an element and cannot be created carbon atoms are endlessly reused in a process known as the carbon cycle ("Material Cycles: Nutrient, Carbon, Nitrogen and Sulfur Cycle", 2014). This is a natural process but human action threatens the delicate balance of the carbon cycle by increasing the amount of CO2 in the…

surroundings. Man is a part of environmental system. The environment consists of four components atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere. The temperature variation in these components is the basis of heat budget of the earth. While the elements (Carbon, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Oxygen etc.) and compounds that sustain us cycle endlessly through living things and the environment. Hydrosphere includes various water resources water is essential for the sustenance of human life and…

be employed in Sasol co. to improve their existing polymer product line. This would not only benefit the company but would also increase clients’ product satisfaction. Incorporation of different nanoreinforcements such as layered silicate clays, carbon nanotubes, nanofibers and silica nanoparticles into elastomers significantly enhances their mechanical, thermal, dynamic mechanical and barrier properties. Noticeable improvements in adhesion, rheological and processing behaviour can also be…

thus increasing the effect of the material properties [18]. According to Yang et al, nanocomposites have been shown to afford remarkable property enhancements compared to the conventional composite. Polymer nanocomposites with layered silicates and carbon nanotubes have attracted great interest for the improvement of structural properties and development of new materials with different functional properties [19]. Based on Potts et al, the property…

INTRODUCTION Lead is a bluish grey metal ,which is one of the useful and common metal that has been used by humans for over 6000 years1 it has high density ,ductility, poor electrical conductivity and more over which is soft and highly malleable in nature. these all properties were helping the early extraction and working with lead and makes it more popular among industrial and other mankind usages all over the world . Several millions of lead are consumed by world for the production of…

Respiration (Growth vs Maintenance Respiration) Plant respiration is the metabolic link between gross primary productivity and net primary productivity. It is also a large component of a plant's carbon budget; perhaps typically 50-70% of carbon assimilated in gross primary productivity is released back to the atmosphere as CO2 during subsequent plant respiration (Amthor and Baldocchi, 2001). Growth is the conversion of temporary pools of substrates such as carbohydrates and amides into new…

alkenes and alkynes. The difference between these three groups is in the bond types between the carbons. Alkanes form only single bonds, alkenes form double bonds, and in alkynes there is at least one triple bond. Alkanes are hydrocarbons which is only contain single covalent bonds between carbon atoms. Alkenes are known as saturated hydrocarbon. This is because they have the maximum of covalent bonds per carbon atom. They have C-C and…

Gasoline is a product that is made of of carbon atoms joined together into carbon chains. The different lengths of the chains create different fuels. These chains have different characteristics that make them behave differently in several circumstances. The characteristics like the boiling point or the ignition temperature. A motor’s cylinder heats up when the fuel is compressed into it. If the fuel reaches its ignition temperature during compression, it will then auto-ignite at the wrong time.…
