This study aims for effective use of fruit cores discarded from food processing factories as building materials. Fruit cores have been carbonized to enhance its adsorption ability of the pollutant gas.The summaries of the results are as follows;1. The pore structure developed the appropriate carbonization temperature. In higher temperature, the strength of the carbide was decreased.2. The carbonization improved the adsorption ability of the pollutant gas.3. When high adsorption ability is required, the highly carbonized fruit cores should be used where the strength is not needed.
The final objective of this study is to enhance the performance of clay wall on bamboo lathing and to improve its productivity in order to utilize this wall construction system widely for wooden detached houses. In this paper, various tests and analyses were carried out to investigate the properties and mix proportion of wall clays which had been used normally in some main districts. Test samples were prepared by well-skilled plasterers. The followings are concluded from the test results. Some of the soil tests and analyses are adaptable as the quality tests of wall clay. The grain size distribution is one of the most important characteristic having correlation with the consistency, drying shrinkage and compressive strength. The theory of laying undercoat with intermediate coat are different depending on the districts.
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.
