“…12 shows that the thermal conductivity of ultra-lightweight foam concretes increased linearly with the increase of apparent density (in the range of 100-300 kg/m 3 ). The specimens with apparent density of 102 kg/m 3 presented a thermal conductivity as low as 0.043 W/m K, which can be comparable to that of the most effective nonflammable thermal-insulting materials, such as the mineral wool (thermal conductivity of 0.036$0.041 W/m K) [23][24][25].…”

“…Recent studies reported the reprocessing of textile industry wastes in the textile sector processes (Halimi et al 2008), while other studies explored the reuse of these wastes for other applications, e.g., for improving properties of building materials (Briga-Sá et al 2013) or in energy recovery (Ryu et al 2007). However, it is important to highlight that wastes used in these studies have been obtained mainly from sub-operations, e.g., the treatment of textile effluents (Li et al 2005), and not from primary operations of textile manufacturing.…”

In this study, the denim fiber scraps were reused as an alternative low-cost sorbent for the removal of heavy metals Pb 2? , Cd 2? , Zn 2? and arsenic from aqueous solutions. Results showed that this textile waste was an effective sorbent for the removal of these heavy metal ions and offered a better removal performance than those reported for other synthetic and natural sorbents such as activated carbons and zeolites. On the other hand, raw and metal-loaded denim wastes were also useful for the removal of arsenic (V) from aqueous solutions and their sorption capacities were higher than 1.5 mg/g. In particular, the presence of Pb 2? ions on the surface of denim wastes improved significantly its arsenic (V) sorption performance. In summary, the reuse of denim textile wastes in wastewater treatment can be considered as an eco-friendly application that could be useful for waste management and also for reducing the production costs in this important industrial sector.

ÖzetBu çalışmanın amacı atık gazete kâğıdı, vermikülit, perlit, çinko boraks ve alçı ile yalıtım malzemesi üretmektir. Bu amaçla atık gazete kâğıdı hamur haline gelene kadar bir gün suda bekletildikten sonra değişik oranlarda vermikülit, perlit ve çinko boraks katılmıştır. Numunelerin üretiminde bağlayıcı olarak alçı kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen harçlar 4x16x16 cm boyutlarında kalıplara kendi ağırlıkları yerleştirilmiştir. Bazı numenlerin üretiminde 5 mm çapında kamış tek ve çift sıra ızgara şeklinde yerleştirilmiştir. Numuneler 24 saat 100 o C'de etüvde bekletilmiştir. Ayrıca numunelerin yangın direncini artırmak için örneklerin karışımında belirli oranlarda vermikülit ve çinko boraks kullanılmıştır. Numunelerin birim hacim ağırlıkları, su emme oranları, ısı iletim ve ultra ses geçirgenlik katsayısı ile eğilme ve basınç dayanımları belirlenmiştir. Çift sıra kamış kullanılarak üretilen numunelerin ısı iletim ve ultra ses geçirgenlik katsayıları düşük bulunmuştur. Elde edilen sonuçlar bu malzemelerin ısı yalıtımı amacıyla kullanılabileceğini göstermiştir. Ayrıca önerilen karışımların yangına dirençlerinin ASTM standardına uygun olduğu belirlenmiştir.Anahtar kelimeler: Atık gazete kağıdı, Vermikülit, Perlit, Çinko boraks, Yalıtım The Production of Insulation Materials Made with Waste Newsprint AbstractThe aim of this study is to produce insulation materials made with waste newsprint, vermiculite, perlite, zinc borax to and plaster. For this purpose waste newsprints until it becomes dough for one day in water at different rates vermiculite, perlite and zinc borax participated. The resulting slurry was placed in the mold by its own weight as 4x16x16 cm to 5 mm diameter cane monolayer and double row grid and pressure is applied. Plaster is used as binder in the production of the samples. The obtained mortars was placed in the mold in 4x16x16 cm their own weight. Some of those in the production of cane number 5 mm in diameter were placed in single and double rows of the grid. The samples were stored in an oven at 100 0 C for 24 hours. In addition, to increase the fire resistance of the sample certain ratio vermiculite and zinc borax was used.
