Title: | Empirical Validation of the Use of Recycled Lubricant Oils to Make High Energy ANFO Type Blasting Agents |
Area: | Earth, Atmosphere & Environment Sciences |
Focus Area: | Recycling of Lubricant Oils |
Social Benefits: | Reduced ~50% of the overall cost of the explosive used for the blasting operations, Most importantly, with this developed product, hazardous environmental pollutant material i.e. waste lubricant oil was successfully recycled in a form of commercially significant renewable energy sources in aeco-sustainable manner, With the use of the developed product, overall consumption of an important and limited fuel (i.e. diesel oil) can be significantly reduced, which is extremely beneficial for future of our society. |
