6. Transfer method, application address, impacts and benefits of the research results
- Transfer method: Transfer of research results in the form of written documents, including reports and scientific publications.
- Application address: The project results will be transferred to the Learning Resource Center of Thai Nguyen University and the Library of the University of Sciences – Thai Nguyen University as reference materials for students, lecturers, and researchers interested in wastewater treatment research.
Impacts and benefits of the research results: The research outcomes provide clear scientific, practical, and environmental benefits, as evidenced by the successful development of a laboratory-scale circulating-gas pyrolysis furnace for converting textile waste and municipal solid waste into value-added than sinh hoc̣, along with the production of than sinh hoc materials applicable in pollution treatment and energy use. The study demonstrated that difficult-to-manage solid waste can be converted through a waste-recycling approach, thereby helping to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills or directly incinerated, while simultaneously generating useful secondary products. In terms of application, textile-waste-derived than sinh hoc̣ , particularly TVT600, showed good adsorption performance for Pb, Cr, NH4+ and methylene blue, while TVT800 exhibited a high calorific value, indicating potential use as a solid fuel substitute. This opens up the possibility of utilizing waste simultaneously for environmental remediation and energy recovery. From a social perspective, the results help orient a suitable solution for decentralized waste management in rural and small-scale settings, promote a circular economy approach, enhance the value of waste, and reduce pressure on centralized waste treatment systems. Environmentally, this research direction is meaningful because it not only reduces solid waste loads but also generates materials capable of treating contaminated water, while aligning with the growing role of than sinh hoc as a solution for reducing environmental impacts and utilizing stable carbon in waste management and pollution treatment.
