There has been a significant surge in the yearly use of plastics, leading to a notable rise in plastic waste generation. Consequently, the recycling of plastic garbage has emerged as a prominent concern around the world. This research explores the feasibility of using polyethylene furanoate (PEF) plastic waste as a substitute for coarse aggregate (...

Increasing environmental awareness and the carbon-storing capability of wood have amplified its relevance as a building material. The demand for high-quality wood species necessitates exploring alternative, underutilized wood sources due to limited forest areas and premium wood volume. Consequently, the veneer-based industry is considering lower-va...

In the effort to limit global warming to 1.5°C above the pre-industrial level, decarbonization of supply chains is crucial. Companies will need to reduce not only their direct and indirect emissions (scope 1 and 2) but also their indirect emissions (scope 3). In some sectors, the upstream scope 3 emissions can actually be larger than the companies’...

In 2015, a 45 MW vertical hydropower machine exhibited excessive vibration after refurbishment. Measurements revealed a substantial bearing clearance at the lower generator guide bearing. Consequently, the bearing was unable to generate sufficient opposing force to drive the rotor toward the bearing center, resulting in more pronounced overall syst...

This research delves into the unexplored territory of using CT image processing techniques to assess capillary flow in freshly felled Scotch pine logs during the drying process. Leveraging a high-resolution CT scanner, the study captures intricate details of the wood’s internal structure, which were then quantified using image processing algorithms...

With the linear model reaching its limits, circular economy has been given increased attention due to its approach to becoming more sustainable. Within circular economy, remanufacturing is posed as a strategy for reducing environmental impact by extending the life of components and products. The automotive industry standsas the second largest indus...
