Using RES Surpluses to Remove Overburden from Lignite Mines Can Improve the Nation’s Energy Security by Leszek Jurdziak, Witold Kawalec, Zbigniew Kasztelewicz, Pawel Parczyk

“…The use of this fuel is currently being penalized as a result of increasing carbon costs. However, the continuous surface mining technology that is used in lignite mines is fully electrified, and large amounts of electric energy are required to remove and dump overburden and mining coal and its conveying to power units (the transport of coal from the new lignite mine Zloczew to the Belchatów power plant would be a long-distance operation). …”

Assessing the Effect of Groundnut Shell Ash-Lime Stabilization of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement for Road Construction. by Tumusiime, Innocent

“…RAP acceptance in road bases and subbases has been limited, because of the lack of laboratory and field performance data while large quantities of groundnut shell ash (GSA) are generated from the combustion of groundnut shell and also disposed in large quantities on production sites and production of Lime not only imposes financial burdens but also contributes to environmental degradation and carbon emissions. This paper presents the results of the laboratory evaluation of the characteristics of GSA-Lime stabilized RAP with a view of determining its suitability for use as highway pavement material in flexible pavement construction. …”
