Agricultural watershed conservation and optimization using a participatory hydrological approach

Srinivas, Rallapalli (Springer, 2024-07)

Maximizing the impact of agricultural wastewater conservation practices (CP) to achieve total maximum daily load (TMDL) scenarios in agricultural watersheds is a challenge for the practitioners. The complex modeling ...
Uncertainty-based fuzzified environmental-socio-economic risk assessment of precision agricultural practices

Srinivas, Rallapalli (Springer, 2024-11)

Precision agriculture (PA) is a management system that helps farmers address issues like fertilizer runoff, crop diseases, and declining yields by employing contemporary advanced technology. However, various environmental, ...
Efficacy of biochar as a catalyst for a Fenton-like reaction: Experimental, statistical and mathematical modeling analysis

Srinivas, Rallapalli (Elsevier, 2025-02)

This study employed machine learning (ML) techniques to identify the applicability of biochar as a catalyst for the Fenton-like process using PMS as an oxidant. Acetaminophen (ACT) was selected as the contaminant to perform ...
Performance assessment of premix carpet for low-volume roads

Bhargava, Nishant (Springer, 2024)

The paper presents the performance of premix carpet for low-volume roads in terms of structural capacity and functional properties. The structural capacity was evaluated using falling weight deflectometer (FWD). International ...
Computational design of fly ash geopolymer mortar using experimental and attribute evaluation approaches

Lahoti, Mukund; Srivastava, Anshuman (Springer, 2024-10)

Geopolymer is a ceramic-like inorganic material synthesized at room temperature and is a potential sustainable replacement of Portland cement. In the present work, a comprehensive experimental program was designed to ...
Synergic valorization of nickel-chrome plating sludge via alkali activation of steel slag and fly ash: performance analysis

Lahoti, Mukund; Singhal, Anupam; Routroy, Srikanta; Bhunia, Dipendu (Springer, 2024-09)

Nickel–chromium plating sludge (NCPS) is a hazardous waste due to high concentration (~ 25%–30%) of chromium and nickel. Electric arc furnace slag (EAFS) is a by-product of secondary steel manufacturing through the electric ...
Optimization of sandstone processing waste, electric arc furnace slag, and fly ash-based ternary blended eco-friendly geopolymers

Bhunia, Dipendu; Chakraborty, Sayantan; Lahoti, Mukund (Springer, 2024-11)

Over the years, ordinary Portland cement (OPC) has been used to meet growing demands of land and housing facilities arising out of population overburdens. It is well documented that OPCs, besides their outstanding qualities ...
Novel LCA-centric mix design approach for alkali-activated EAF slag with hybrid optimization techniques

Lahoti, Mukund; Pradhan, Subhasis (Springer, 2024-12)

This study presents an innovative life cycle assessment (LCA)-centric approach for optimizing the mix design of alkali-activated materials (AAMs) as sustainable alternatives to ordinary portland cement (OPC). The AAMs are ...
Comprehensive assessment of leaching characteristics in electric arc furnace slag-based alkali-activated mortar

Lahoti, Mukund (Springer, 2025-03)

This study investigates the leaching resistance and environmental performance of electric arc furnace slag (EAFS) as a precursor in alkali-activated materials (AAMs), contributing to sustainable construction practices and ...
Two-fluid approach to the emergency movement of pedestrians through a passage

Vikarm, Durgesh (Sage, 2024-11)

Egress times of pedestrians from the narrow and the wide passages are modeled analytically in this study. The pedestrians in this study constitute both faster (like the ones who are healthy) and slower (like the ones who ...
Phosphoric acid–modified bentonite-chitosan composite beads: a novel and cost-effective adsorbent for multi-metal wastewater treatment

Sopanrao, Khandgave Santosh (Springer, 2024)
