21-111 INFLUENCE OF GRAİN SİZE ON MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF Al2O3 – SiC COMPOSİTES

INFLUENCE OF GRAIN SIZE ON MECHANICAL
PROPERTIES OF Al2O3 – SiC COMPOSITES
Composite material of Al2O3/SiC was prepared by pressing Al2O3 and
SiC powders. The mechanical properties, including flexural strength,
compression strength, hardness, and resilience were studied. The amount of
SiC was 20, 30, and 40 vol. %. Sintering was done at 1650 oC for 1 h soaking
time in air. Porosity decreases as grain size of SiC is increasing. As increasing
the particle size the resistance of flexion decreases, the resistance of
compression is decreasing, HRA is highest for 20 % vol. SiC, and resilience is
highest for 40 vol.% SiC.

ON SOME PARTICULARITIES OF FRETTING FATIGUE (II)
Fretting is a process which invariably occurs on contracting surfaces of
tightly metal joints subjected to vibration loading. The superficial damage caused
by the rubbing of the contacting surfaces together with the severe stress gradient
under the contact region accelerate the nucleation and early growth of cracks
witch can lead to catastrophic failure of there is a least one of the components of
the fitting subjected to a remote fatigue load. This is the so called fretting fatigue
phenomenal. The aircraft industry is per hops one of the most affected by the
fretting fatigue problem.

This paper deals with the design of a system for decisional support
dedicated to an anti-hail system. It is proposed a specific system for Romania
anti-hail network, which completes the existing systems with specific
information in order to identify the best solutions for both coordination and
launch. The main methods of combating hail are related to the seeding clouds
with rockets, artillery and aircraft, the use of canon shock wave, ground particle
generators and anti-hail nets. The system comprises two main components: a
subsystem of launch decision and a subsystem for assisting the launch
decision. In order to achieve this system, the following important issues are
considered: the use of communication via GPRS, monitoring the parameters
throughout all period of operating, log-values, status and alarms, operator
actions logs, friendly graphical interface and the generation of tabular and
graphical reports for any period. The system enables: an increased efficiency
by shortening the time for action, a good organization and a high degree of

Sludge management is costly and energy consuming. In this paper it

other is to use hydrothermal carbonization in order to produce a bio-coal.
Hydrothermal carbonization is a new technology that can use humid waste and
transform it into bio coal. It has low greenhouse gases emission because
almost the entire carbon is kept in the biomass.

21-71 CONTAMINAREA SOLURILOR DIN ZONELE URBANE STUDIU DE CAZ – PERCEPȚIA RISCURILOR ASOCIATE CONTAMINĂRII SOLURILOR ÎN CLUJ-NAPOCA

CONTAMINATE URBAN SOILS
CASE STUDY – ASSESING RISK PERCEPTION RELATED TO
SOIL CONTAMINATION ÎN THE CITY OF CLUJ-NAPOCA
This paper represents a statistical assessment of the perception of
risks related to urban soil pollution in the city of Cluj-Napoca. In the past few
years, in all over Romania an increasing trend could be noticed in the scientific
interest for soil contamination due to anthropogenic activities. Nevertheless, a
research aiming to assess risks due to the presence of contaminants in top soils
of urban areas has never been conducted and the public society is deprived of
such information in all cities. The present statistical analysis represents a pilot
study for the city of Cluj-Napoca. It is the first step that needs to be taken in
order to properly asses risks. Identifying and understanding risk perception is an
important milestone for any measure aiming to diminish pollution related risks
for health and the environment.

TECHNOLOGY FOR WASTE WATER TREATMENT WITH
ROTATING BIOLOGICAL CONTACTORS AND
DIMENSIONING OF THE BIOLOGICAL WASTE WATER
TRETMENT
The paper is to review and assess existing rotating biological contactors
(RBC) design procedures and provide in-depth design information on critical
features of the RBC process and key parameters affecting its operation and
performance than is typically available to the engineering community.
Since past decade, the old works started to be replaced with new
technologies such as rotating biological contactors (RBC), especially for small
communities. RBC is an attached – growth biological process, which consists of
a series of rotating plastic media all coated with a layer of bio film.
The bio film or slime on the media aerobically reacts with substances in a
waste stream for bio-oxidation and nitrification, or anaerobic ally react with the
substances for denitrification. This paper discusses the theory, performance,
design procedures, calculation and dimensioning of the RBC process.

MARITIMA WILLD
This paper is a study of soil quality liveable areas of Armeria Maritima
Willd.
Studies were conducted on soil of protected areas that develop
Armeria Maritima revealed the positive influence they have heavy metals on its
development. Experiments conducted in artificial environment on the plant,
showed tolerance to high levels of pollution with Zn, Cu.
In our country were not surveyed on Armeria Maritima Willd, with a
single protected area of this type.

The effects of the noise pollution are the infrasound’s, the ultrasounds
and the noises.Mechanical vibrations are transmitted to man are injurious
complex, affecting the health and physiological effects and hindering
(hindering) the process to work up to loss of employment. The most important
effects produced by the vibration action is likely physiological, mechanical and
thermal, mainly being the last two.

The prevention of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE)
and the recycling of such wastes lead to the improvement of the environmental
performance of all operators involved in the life cycle of electric and electronic
equipment: producers, distributors, consumers and operators involved in the
treatment of WEEE. In Romania, the collection from private household and the
recycling of WEEE are not undertaken yet to a sufficient extent.

STUDY ABOUT EFFICIENT SIZING OF THE TOTAL
COLLECTOR AREA FOR A DOMESTIC SOLAR WATER
HEATING SYSTEM
Sizing a solar water heating system basically involves determining the
total collector area and the storage volume. Hot water demand for a household
over a year can be considered constant. The major problem is determining the
right size for the total collector area avoiding to over and under sizing the
system. The paper analyzes a sizing possibility regarding the efficiency of the
system from an hermetic point of view. The result show the system sized to
ensure hot water demand over the summer period is the most efficient; a
system sized to ensure hot water demand over winter period is oversized and
not efficient.
