The process of self-healing of cracks or self-filling up of cracks by the help of bacterial reaction in the concrete after hardening is known as Self-Healing Concrete. It can be observed that small cracks that occur in a structure of width in the range of 0.05 to 0.1mm gets completely sealed in repetitive dry and wet cycles.

Waterproofing describes making an object waterproof or water-resistant.
Building water-proofing is a process which is designed to prevent water from penetrating a building.
Usually extensive waterproofing measures are added to a building at the time of construction, to provide moisture control from the start
Waterproofing may also be done after a building is built, to address problems as they emerge or as part of a building retrofit
Internal areas that are waterproofed include :
bathrooms,
shower recesses,
laundries
toilets.
what is polymer concrete, types, properties, material used in manufacturing process , manufacturing process, applications and their advantages. case study on polymer composite concrete.
A chilled beam is a type of convection heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system designed to heat or cool large buildings.It is now regarded as the most space efficient and environmental friendly method of heating and cooling a building.The primary advantage of the chilled beam system is its lower operating cost.Chilled beams reduce energy consumption.It is now regarded as the most space efficient and environmental friendly method of heating and cooling a building.It improves the comfort levels by cutting out the intrusive noise and aesthetic problems.It provides good energy efficiency and reduction in carbon dioxide emission. Since they do not require high forced air flows, chilled beam systems also require reduced air distribution duct network.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

2. INTRODUCTION
• Pollution- mass destruction of environment -mainly
air pollution.
• Reduces -air quality- vicinity of large cities and
travel long distance -produce ozone.
• Negative impact - human health -respiratory
problems, acidifies lakes, deterioration of buildings
2
4. Main polluting agents :
• Cars emissions
• Power plants, industries, incinerators
• Heating of fossil fuel
• Pesticides
• Mining and agricultural operations
4
Vehicles emitting polluted
smoke:
5. Major Pollutants :
• Sulpur dioxide
• Nitrogen dioxide
• Volatile organic compounds
• Carbon monoxide
• Nitrogen dioxide -air pollutant - present in the atmosphere
more -due to smog ,smoke etc.
• Solution -problems -self cleansing concrete -not only
keeps itself clean -improve the air quality near by. 5
6. TITANIUM DIOXIDE AS PHOTOCATALYST
Principle behind self cleansing concrete is
photocatalytic effect of TiO2
Increases rate of reaction by absorbing sun light
and without being consumed
TiO2 through its process of oxidises the NOx into
NO and NO2 in powdered form
TiO2 is hydrophilic, attracts water between dirt and
surface
Washing off dirt
6
8. PHOTOCATALYST IN SELF CLEANSING
CONCRETE
Similar to M20 grade concrete
Addition of 3.5% to 4% of Tio2 to the 96.5% of
cement
Without -chemical admixtures
Nox level -reduced by 20% to 80%
Removal of unpleasent odour due to pollutants.
Reduces microorganism - bacteria, fungi
8
9. WORKING OF SELF CLEANING
CONCRETE
• Self cleaning effect -oxidation promoted by sunlight
• Photo induced hydrophilicity
• Decomposed pollutants - dirt over-surface
• Removed- rain fall or manual rinsing
• Light and heat should hit the surface of concrete
• Reaction takes place
9
10. MECHANISM
• UV light falls over the concrete surface
• Two photo induced process occurs:
a. photo induced redox reaction
b. photo induced super hydrophilicity
10
12. • Tio2 absorbs energy - electron hole pair further they
form OH radicals
• Hydroxyl radical attack harmful pollutants
• Decomposes-form harmless sulphate, nitrate,water ,
carbon dioxide
• By products - small quantity
12
14. SUPER HYDROPHILICITY
Hazardous gas –decomposition-powdery particle and
stay over-building like a dust
Super hydrophilicity is Occurrence of water contact
angle
TiO2 bond - broken down -Ti-OH bonds resulting in
super hydrophilicity
14
15. 15
• Absorbed water spreads out flat and rinsing the dusty
concrete surface
• Other source of rinsing is rain water or by manually.

60m3 per day
Self cleansing efficiency depends on :
a. Concentration of pollutants
b. Humidity of atmosphere
c. Temperature
d. Porosity of surface
e. Size of surface exposed
• Porosity of surface and concentration of TiO2 increases
depollution increases
• Deposition dust on surface reduces efficiency
