In order to prepare a new type of landfill covering material for closure, we used industrial calcium-containing waste (construction rubbish, slag, desulfurized gypsum and fly ash) to modify the dredged urban sludge. Shrink, unconfined compression, shear and infiltration tests were performed to obtain the volume shrinkage, compressive strength, shear strength and permeability coefficient of the modified sludge, as well as the permeability coefficient under the action of wet and dry cycles. Comprehensive characterization of the modified sludge using X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy detection methods, resulted in the hydration products, molecular groups and microstructure characteristics of the modified sludge and revealed the modification mechanism of calcium-containing waste to sludge. After natural curing for 28 d, the volume shrinkage rate of the modified sludge sample was 2.6~8.3%, the unconfined compressive strength was 7.9~14.5 MPa, the cohesion force c was 179~329 kPa, and the internal friction angle φ was 42.59~53.60°. After six wet and dry cycles, there were no cracks in the modified sludge; the permeability coefficient of the modified sludge reached stability at 0.84–11.1 × 10−7 cm/s; and the permeability coefficient of MS7 sample was less than 1 × 10−7 cm/s, which met the engineering anti-seepage requirements of the landfill closure cover. The industrial calcium-containing waste by alkali formed C–S–H and C–A–S–H gelled geopolymer, which filled the gaps between soil particles to form a strong soil cement skeleton. Therefore, the mix ratio of sludge:construction waste:slag:fly ash:desulfurized gypsum was 50:22:15:8:5. Calcium-containing solid waste modified sludge can be used as a cover material for landfill closure.
In order to study how cross-organizational control and knowledge sharing affect project performance during a whole process engineering consulting project, this paper constructs a theoretical model of cross-organizational control, knowledge sharing, and project performance and uses a structural equation model (SEM) to conduct an empirical analysis of questionnaire data. The results showed that trust can promote two types of project performance, while contractual control stimulates basic performance but does not significantly impact value-added project performance. The mediation results showed that tacit knowledge plays an intermediary role between trust and two types of project performance, while explicit knowledge plays an intermediary role between contractual control and basic project performance. The results of this paper will further enrich the application of knowledge sharing in the field of project management, open the “black box” of project performance in whole process engineering consulting, and provide owners with guidance to achieve value-added project performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
