...wastes generates a more efficient and green construction, therefore it is important to find a way to recycle these residues in concrete mixtures without affecting the essential properties of concrete. By performing the compressive test in different concrete mixtures that contained different amounts of recycled aggregates from old concretes (20% and 30%), showed that the resistance of the concretes wasn’t significantly affected; less than 2% of the resistance was lost, compared to a concrete mixture that did not have recycled aggregates. Furthermore, when performing the same test to concrete mixtures containing 20%, 30% and 40% of recycled aggregates from construction and demolition (C&D) waste, results showed that up to 25% of its resistance was lost. Therefore, by using either kind of recycled aggregates, up to 30% in a concrete mixture, one is producing a more viable concrete that is not only more economic, but also produces less contamination, enabling the industry to mitigate the environmental impact produced by this industry. Green concretes is an alternative and competitive market that can be created through the acknowledgment that construction and demolition wastes are viable for reusing and recycling as aggregates for any king of concrete, including structural concretes. It’s been observed, that in order to create this competitive market policies and regulation must be created. Also the existing regulations regarding management and disposal of waste must be...

...Food & Nutrition Pastry Making Pastry Techniques Pastry is so useful. The different techniques can be used in an endless array of dishes, savory and sweet. A calm, organized approach using a cool worktop and ingredients will help produce great pastry. Work in as cool an environment as possible well away from the cooker or boiler. Kitchens are usually coolest in the mornings. Use your finger tips- the coolest part of your hands. While it helps to allow the fat to soften, before using, don't let it get too warm Sift the flour and when rubbing in the fat, lift the flour as high as possible while keeping it in the bowl- both steps will incorporate cold air which will expand once in the oven and produce light pastry. Rub until the mixture looks like fine breadcrumbs then stop- if you over do it, you will have tough, old pastry on your hands. Add the water gradually; you really don't want to have to add more flour after liquid. On the other hand, too little will create a dry and crumbly dough that will be hard to roll without breaking. Mixing, Rolling, Panning, Trimming and Cooking Pastry ~Make a disk -Before you chill or roll out the dough, take the time to shape in into an even disk less then an inch thick and smooth edges. Well floured hands and a well floured work surface will make this easier. This will make the dough much easier to roll out quickly and evenly and will help avoid cracking on the edges. ~ Chill the Dough -Chill the dough before you roll it...

...i.e O2 + M → M-O(a) Here M is the Silver metal. Catalyst Used: As I mentioned earlier, Silver metal or a mixture of Molybdenum and Iron oxides can be used as catalysts. There are two main differences between the operation of these two catalysts. The first difference between these two catalysts is that they operate at different temperatures. A mixture of Iron and Molybdenum oxides catalyst operates at a temperature between 200-300oC whereas the silver metal catalyst operates at a slightly higher temperature which is about 600-700oC. The other difference is that when you use a mixture of Iron and Molybdenum oxides as the catalyst, the formation of Formaldehyde occurs through the following chemical reaction CH3OH + ½ O2 → HCHO + H2O On the other hand when you use silver metal as the catalyst, the formation of Formaldehyde is governed by two simultaneous reactions. One of them is the one you see above while the other one is a dehydrogenation reaction. CH3OH → HCHO + H2 The mechanism shown above clearly illustrates this. So, when you use Silver metal as the catalyst, you obtain Hydrogen...

...all offered in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. The positioning was meant to appeal to a niche market of highly educated affluent customers predominantly female between the ages of 24-44 years. Starbucks did not have a dedicated marketing strategy, but the function was performed by three separate groups with little coordination. In the words of Chistine Day everybody had to perform marketing as part of their job. This meant that they weren’t strategic in their approach and while they were hugely successful over the next decade, by 2002 there were some widening gaps between Starbucks vision and their market survey results. Christine Day realized they had failed in terms of “customer intimacy”; their customer base had changed, yet they hadn’t realized this. Additionally their service level had fallen, with a concurrent increase in the technical and rigorous demands of the barista’s job. The entry strategy into China similarly positioned Starbucks as an elite and ubiquitous brand. In the east and particularly in China, status is an integral part of the culture. Starbucks positioning would therefore appeal to the burgeoning masses of young well educated and affluent class of Chinese society. This market segment had growing purchasing power and an incessant appetite for western brands and status symbols of prosperity and a glorious western lifestyle. They engaged in global market adaptation by customizing their product offerings to cater to local preferences. Additionally they...

...is hoping to bring to us in 2019. The end goal of Mazda’s project is to produce a gasoline engine work like a diesel one. A diesel engine utilizes compression to ignite the air/fuel mixture instead of using a spark plug like a gasoline engine. A question that Tim Worstall from Forbes asks is “why not make petrol engines work like diesel ones?” According to Mazda, this new engine “promises up to 20-30% more engine efficiency than the current SkyActiv-G, and up to 45% more than Mazda's 2008 petrol engine.” If these promises are true, they could easily extend the time that the internal combustion engine is produced for automobiles. Another improvement to the internal combustion engine that has been tested is an engine without any camshafts. This was tested on a sixteen-valve engine and saw improvements in engine size and weight. More importantly though, Frank Markus says, “the engine’s power improved by 45 percent, torque by 47 percent, and fuel consumption by about 14 percent (at steady highway speeds).” If this technology by Freevalve is combined with Mazda’s new technology, the internal combustion engine seems like it could have an exceptional future ahead of...

...Marketing overview DEFINING THE MARKET CATEGORY: The famous 7/11 Slurpee fits into the market of the ‘frozen carbonated beverages’ which is just one amongst various others. The term ‘frozen carbonated beverage’ refers to a mixture of flavoured sugar syrup, carbon dioxide, and water that is kept below freezing point by custom machinery continuously stirring the mixture to keep the beverage in a slushy-like form, the Slurpee being one of the finished products. A few other examples of frozen carbonated beverages are as follows: frozen coke, KFC crushers and slush puppies. The promotional strategies included building sales beyond the traditional summer season by introducing ‘shoulder’ (prior-to and afterpeak) campaigns. To drive out-of-season relevance, each shoulder campaign offered a new Slurpee product that had benefits beyond refreshment. These products, including sports and energy versions of the Slurpee, were not only the first to market in their categories, but exclusive to 7-Eleven. The shoulder campaign strategy has increased ‘off peak’ sales by more than 200%, making Slurpee the world’s most popular frozen carbonated beverage. MARKET SIZE: 7/11’s Slurpee is recognisable world-wide with competitors that are of little competition, Slurpee runs the show of the frozen carbonated beverages definitely having the competitive edge. 7/11 customers are consumed with the convenience store’s Slurpee icon, sipping on more than 13 million Slurpee drinks a month or 156...
