Abstract It was developed new ceramics composites with hazardous car production mud (CPM) and galvanic process glass waste with high content of heavy metals. They were applied as valuable components of red ceramics sintered at 700°, 750°, 800°, 850°, 900°, and 950°C to provide flexural resistance of up to 17.6 MPa, water absorption at 950°C 6.53 -10.45%, linear shrinkage – 5.24-6.29%, density 2.7 – 3.2 g/cm³, and dilatation coefficient 5.3 -13.8%. Structure formation studies by the XRD, SEM, EDS, and LAMMA methods demonstrated the synthesis of amorphous glassy material with small inclusion of mullite Al6Si2O13. Car production mud and galvanic process glass waste play the role of the intensifiers of the ceramics’ structures formation processes. The ceramics' leaching and solubility tests by the atomic absorption spectroscopy method showed strong chemical bond of heavy metals of the hazardous raw materials in insoluble structures. According to Brazilian standards, they can be used to produce tiles, bricks, blocks, and similar materials with high environmental eficiency.

The investigated ecological glasses with no toxic compounds, such as BaO, PbO, As2O3, As2O5, fluorine, CdS and CdSe in their composition are located in ternary and quaternary oxide systems: ZnO-SiO2-TiO2 and SiO2-R'2O-R''O-R'''O2, where R' is Na or K, R'' is Ca or Mg and R''' is Zr or Ti. The first system contains P2O5, ZnO and TiO2 in order to obtain opal glasses, without fluorine compounds. The second system replaces the barium oxide and lead oxide with potassium, magnesium, zirconium and titanium oxides, for materials like lead free crystals. The raw materials can be replaced by silicate or borosilicate glass waste. The advantages of borosilicate glass waste are: bringing valuable components into recipes (B2O3, CaO, Al2O3), saving raw materials and energy, creating an ecological environment The characteristic temperatures (vitreous transition point, low and high annealing points, softening point) and the thermal expansion coefficient of the glass are presented. The FTIR and Raman spectroscopy provided structural data, such as characteristic vibration maxima for silicon and titanium oxide, and revealed the role of zinc oxide in the vitreous network. The refraction index and UV-VIS transmission are discussed.

The present work aims to evaluate the influence of different residue incorporations on the physical and mechanical properties of a typical red ceramic composition, replacing the sand, by using the residue from the first stage of tempered glass manufacturing. Ceramic specimens were prepared with incorporations of 0 and 20% of flat glass waste. The samples were obtained by extrusion, dried and fired at 800, 900, 1000 ° C in a laboratory oven. Analyzes of the raw materials were performed, among which the thermal, morphological, physical and chemical can be highlighted. Tests on the fired ceramic specimens were also performed. The firing properties obtained were the dry bulk density, relative density, water absorption, dry linear shrinkage, linear firing shrinkage and flexural strength. The results showed that both the increase of the glass content and the increase of temperature had a positive influence on the studied properties. Furthermore, it confirmed that the glass waste acted in order to lower the proper firing temperature. Flat glass waste is therefore a highly recommended fluxing element for the red ceramic industry, as it can be incorporated in quantities as significant as 20% without major negative effects on the properties, therefore optimizing the amount of waste used and acting positively on the properties studied, reducing energy and raw material costs.

The relevance of the article is determined by the fact that in Russia there is no effective mechanism of state support for the activities of non-profit organizations in the field of “green Finance”. The role of non-profit organizations is leveled, which can become a serious help in solving economic problems, in particular, the problems of recycling and processing of secondary raw materials, the placement of industrial waste and household garbage, and landscaping of large megacities. The main financial burden in the field of “green economy” falls on States and large enterprises. Meanwhile, we cannot ignore the important role of non-profit organizations that can not only draw attention to environmental problems to the public, but also offer their own measures to solve environmental problems. In this regard, it becomes relevant to consider the participation of non-profit organizations in the implementation of environmental projects by attracting “green Finance”.

Soil is a powerful and active absorber of many substances, assumes the pressure of industrial and municipal emissions and waste, and performs the important role of a buffer and a detoxicant. It accumulates heavy metals, pesticides, hydrocarbons and other chemical polluting substances and due to the soil absorbing complex (SAC) strongly captures and protects natural waters and the atmosphere from harm. Applying sewage sludges in our research will enable us to strengthen the capacity of SAC and to reduce the toxicity of heavy metals when they enter a reservoir via a drain from anthropogenically polluted territory.

Background: Phytonutrients in peach fruits have health promoting antioxidants against various chronic diseases. However, there is no extensive data to show the nutritional values of Local peach cultivars after post-harvest treatments. Objective: Mainly this study was objective to determine the effect of calcium carbide on nutritional value and quality of fruits of Pakistani peach cultivars. Methods: The peach fruits were collected from three different peach orchids of KPK and the fruits were divided into 4 groups while 5th group was collected from local fruit shop. Each experimental group was treated with different concentration of calcium carbide whereas control group was not treated. The peel and pulp samples were oven dried and ground to fine powder separately. The elemental compositions were determined using Particle Induced X-ray emission and Pelletron Tandem Accelerator. Result: Sixteen elements were identified in peach fruits and the elements were Al, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, and Se. In peel, concentration of some elements increased or decreased after treatment with CaC2 while in pulp the conc. of nearly all detected elements was increased in treated samples. We found significantly high amount of heavy metals traces including As, Se, Co, Si, and P in peach fruits treated with CaC2. Interestingly, the presence of trichomes in peach skin prevents the transfer of these heavy metals deep into the pulp which was also verified by the elemental profiling of nectarines. Conclusion: Conclusively, the artificial ripening with CaC2 changed the nutritional value of peach fruits that has higher health risks if consume with the peel. According to our best knowledge, this is the first report that highlights the effects of CaC2 which deteriorate the nutritional value of peach fruits in Pakistan.
