A recent method, based on the use of amorphous silica, allows for the inertization of MSWI
fly ash, avoiding expensive vitrification. The present paper demonstrates that glass …

The present study aims at uncovering valorisation opportunities in the Greek slaughtering
industry related to wastewater and animal by-products exploitation. To this end, 12 Greek …

A novel preparation method of glass-ceramics from coal fly ash (CFA) and oil shale ash-
derived amorphous slag (OSAS) was developed in this study. Effects of important factors …

Considering that wastes are harmfull for the environment and human health due to certain
physical, chemical and biological reasons; the necessity of systematic implementation of …

A huge volume of boron mining wastes is generated in boron producing countries every
year, necessitating the need to find a viable valorisation solution urgently. Their potential in …

Rubidium was predominately identified in boron clay (BC) as a result of the analyses of trace
elements in boron industrial wastes that were investigated. In the first step, rubidium in the …

Waste recycling has become an important issue in the environmental sustainability of mining
operations. Beneficiation of borate ores produces a boron-bearing sludge, which utilization …

Oil shale ash is an inorganic by-product generated from the combustion and refinement of
oil shale. In this study, it was used as main raw material to produce glass-ceramics. The …

Abstract Cu (In, Ga) Se 2 (CIGS) is a p-type semiconductor material and an attractive
absorber for thin films solar cells due to its unique optical and electrical properties. The low …

Boron mining and enrichment waste (BW) from boric acid (H3BO3) production is a by‐
product of the boron industry. BW exhibits B2O3 contents of 16‐31 wt%, and therefore, could …
