This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the impact of continuous casting technology on emissions of air pollutants from "Katowice" Steelworks in Dąbrowa Górnicza (Poland). Sources of emissions occurring in the manufacturing process and emissions levels have been identified. Implementation of continuous casting of steel has increased the efficiency of production and brought substantial ecological effects.
English title: Direct and indirect effects of introduction of continuous casting of steel in the balance sheet of pollutant emissions from "Katowice" Steelworks.

The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of developing high performance concrete (HPC) using silica fume (SF) at relatively high water-binder ratios. For this purpose, water-binder ratios of 0.45 and 0.50 were considered. Test specimens were air and water cured and exposed to a medium temperature range of 20 °C to 50 °C. The compressive strength, modulus of elasticity and initial surface absorption (ISA) of hardened concrete were determined in the laboratory. Test results indicated that concrete under water curing offers the best results. The highest level of compressive strength and modulus of elasticity and the lowest …
