Composition And Porosity Study Of Original And Restoration Materials Included In A Coastal Historical Construction
(Construction and Building Materials, 2018-05-22)
The materials used for the building constructions can suffer during their life numerous deterioration processes induced by different anthropogenic and natural factors. For this reason, optimal restoration works are vitally ...
In vitro genotoxic effect of secondary minerals crystallized in rocks from coal mine drainage
(Journal Of Hazardous Materials, 2018-03)
Coal processing generates a large volume of waste that can damage human health and the environment. Often these wastes produce acid drainage in which several minerals are crystallized (evaporites). This study aimed to ...
