In the present scenario, the e-waste from the various electronic sectors has been increasing due to increased utilization of electric components. In this chapter, the bioleaching(biomining) process of a computer printed circuit board (CPCB) is illustrated to extract the metal components. Basic concepts for e-waste management, their impacts, and various e-waste treatment methods have been explained. The various existing conventional metal extraction methods for the wasted CPCB have also been explored. Definitions, types, cryogenic bioleaching (biomining), influencing factors, and procedures of the bioleaching process have been illustrated. The microbiological methods for the processing of e-waste, the selection of process parameters, and the optimization or maximization of metal extraction processes were demonstrated to promote the e-waste management processes.

Lignocellulosic biomass is converted into liquid products through pyrolysis, which can be used as an alternative fuel for heating applications and industrial chemicals. Pyrolysis liquid is a mixture of many oxygenated fractions which deteriorates its burning properties. Through specific bond cleavage reactions like deoxygenation, cracking, and decarbonylation, catalysts in the pyrolysis process can be used to improve the quality of pyrolysis liquid. In this study, biochar produced by carbonization of printed circuit boards was used for catalytic reforming processes to produce energy-rich liquids and chemicals from a mixture of karanja seed oil cake and waste furniture wood. The catalytic process was performed by changing the reactor temperature from 300°C to 700°C at 50°C intervals. The results showed a maximum liquid oil recovery of 53.9 wt% at 500°C. Compared to the noncatalytic reaction, pyrolysis of biomass with biochar recovered 11.59% more liquid. This study demonstrated a viable technique to recover more liquid products and industrial chemicals by employing sustainable catalysts from e-waste. The physical analysis of the liquid showed that the liquid can be used as a fuel for boilers and furnaces. The chemical characterization through gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) showed the presence of various chemical elements used for medicinal and industrial applications.

Polyethylene (PE) was used as a composite material to create a fabric containing 40% pineapple, 30% jute, and 30% cotton fibres by weight. The physical characterisation is carried out, like deterioration and water absorption tests. PE-based composites were shown to have a lower water absorption rate when dipped in deionized water to perform an absorption test. Fabric/PE composites decomposed slowly in the soil during the degradation test. Alkali solution of 5 percent, 7 percent, and 9 percent sodium hydroxide by weight for 60 minutes was studied as alkali impact mechanical characteristics: mechanical testing’s like tensile strength and modulus, elongation at break, bending strength, and modulus. Data investigation exposed that the tensile strength and modulus, elongation at break, bending strength, and composite modulus values were 64 MPa and 871 MPa, 23.14 percent, 45 MPa, and 512 MPa. There were tensile strength and modulus, elongation at break, bending strength, and modulus of the neat polyethylene sheet that were 32Mpa and 342 MPa, 79 percent, 22 MPa, and 234 MPa, respectively. Compared to a polyethylene sheet, composite values for tensile strength and modulus, bending strength, and modulus raised by 107%, 156%, 110%, and 115% as a result of fabric reinforcing.

There are a slew of elements at work in the composites sector, from people and markets to technology and innovation, that are continually reshaping the industry's structure. For now, composite materials' winning combination of high strength-to-weight ratio continues to propel them into new areas, but other attributes are just as crucial. These properties, which may be customized for unique purposes, result in a completed product requiring fewer raw materials and fewer joints and fasteners, as well as reduced assembly times, thanks to composite materials. To lower product lifespan costs, composites also have demonstrated resilience in industrial applications to temperature extremes as well as corrosion and wear. Polymers, ceramics, and metals can all be used as matrices. Thermoplastic (TP) resin is the second most prevalent matrix type, and it is becoming increasingly popular among composite makers. By melting or softening and then chilling the material, thermoplastic linear polymer chains are generated and may be reformed into shaped solids. It is common for thermoplastics to be offered in sheet or panel form, which may be treated using in situ consolidation processes, such as pressing, to manufacture durable, near-net-shape components without the need for an autoclave or vacuum bag cure. Correcting abnormalities or fixing harm done in service is possible with reformability.

Improvement in thermal efficiency and reduction in emission from diesel engines are major thrust research work in all around the world. This research work is on the performance and emission characteristics of diesel engine using Low Heat Rejection (LHR) techniques of thermal barrier coated cylinder liner and piston. A piston was coated as 100 micron thickness and three cylinder liners were coated in the thickness of 100,150 and 200 micron. Piston and cylinder liners were coated with equal percentages of Alumina and Yittria Stabilized Zirconia powder using the plasma spraying coating method. The test results compared with base engine showed reduction in the performance parameter of specific fuel consumption (SFC) on an average by 6.11%, 12.78% and 16.89%, while the brake thermal efficiency increased by 1.68%,3.75% and 5.19% in 100,150 and 200 micron thickness coated cylinder liner used engine respectively. There was reduction in Carbon monoxide (CO), unburned hydrocarbon (HC) and smoke emissions levels while Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) emission was slightly higher in the coated engine compared with the uncoated engine in all load conditions. Overall, 200 microns thickness coated cylinder liner showed a better performance parameter and low emission compared with other cylinder liner coated engine.

Validation of an adhesive joint strength is by and large done through crack propagation analysis influenced by the loading modalities leading to different testing methodologies. The DCB test method is extensively used under more-1 loading to study the fracture and delamination toughness of adhesive joints. The significance and suitability of using the test when the hardener-resin proportion of the adhesive is varied needs to be scrutinized. Three mild steel DCB specimens were analysed incorporating the proportion-variation. The analysis revealed the need of using the Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) to study the crack propagation in all the specimens as a pattern of inconsistent proportionality emerged between the resin proportion and the crack propagation. The graphs converged to a particular degree between the experimental and the analytical realms which further instigated the need of modeling of the entire specimen inclusive of the adhesive layer through Finite Element Analysis. The obtained results provided insights on stress distribution inside the adhesive layer when crack propagation takes place in the specimens. The proportion variation done in a systematic manner is seen as a key factor in improvisation techniques for analysis when efforts are undertaken to introduce modalities in crack propagation direction control.
