Performance of sewage sludge reuse in the manufacturing of fired bricks by K. Moulato, M. Ammari, L. Ben Allal

“…Above 20 percent of samples substitution, their strength becomes less reliable, due to the large amount of organic matter that burns during firing which creates pores in the finished product.CONCLUSION: These results suggest that thermal processes limit the leaching of metals and are practically inaccessible to the ecosystem, so the brick cannot harm the environment. …”

Forest Fire Detection Using Wireless Sensors and Networks by Mingyue Wang

“…This concept relies solely on the node behavior to alert of crises possibility using simple node components to provide detection and information on whether this is a peaceful fire, or the beginning of wild fire. The key in this method is to make decisions by tracking the fire propagation and check the logic behind it.…”

Research on coupling evacuation of escalator and staircase in fire scenario. by Chunhua Zhang, Xin Wu, Hai Shen

“…In order to improve mall evacuation efficiency, Pyrosim software and Anylogic software are used to study the coupled evacuation of mall personnel using escalators and stairs in a fire scenario. The available safe evacuation time of each evacuation exit was explored by analyzing the smoke transport, temperature, CO concentration and visibility of each floor of the mall under different fire source locations when the fire shutter was lowered to 1.8m from the ground. …”
