Development Of Green Curtain Noise Barrier Using Natural Waste Fibres

Noise pollution is one of the major problems in industry. Noise, which is commonly known as undesired sound, comes from numerous industrial machineries and very harmful to the human body. One of the simplest ways to solve this problem is by employing a noise barrier or partition. Current noise barri...
