Evaluating the performance of Unoconcrete floating cover to reduce evaporation from open water resources

Authors

Abstract:

Limitation of groundwater resources and high demand of the mining industry for water will be create Huge challenges in securing the survival of the industry's operations in the future. One of the important and insensible aspects water losses in the mines is evaporation from open water surfaces, and even wastewater tailings dams that it is out of reach a large amount of this precious capital each year. In this research, in order to prevent evaporation of water and tailings dam wastewater of Sarcheshmeh copper mine was designed and built Unoconcrete floating cover. After preparing, 36 units of Unoconcrete coatings were transferred to research ponds in the vicinity of Sarcheshmeh tailing dam and then the amount of evaporation reduction of coatings was measured for two months from 2016/09/11 to 2016/11/11.The results obtained showed that the performance coatings in evaporation reduction of wastewater is more than 89%. Finally, due to the durability and performance of Unoconcrete in reduce evaporation, these coatings can be considered as a successful plan to cover water reservoirs of Sarcheshme copper complex.

رابطه ی میانِ هنر و شرایطِ اجتماعیِ زایش آن همواره در طولِ تاریخ دغدغه ی ذهنی و دل مشغولیِ اساسیِ منتقدان و نیز هنرمندان بوده است. از آنجا که هنر در قفس آهنیِ زندگیِ اجتماعی محبوس است، گسترش وابستگیِ آن با نهاد ها و اصولِ اجتماعی پیرامون، صرفِ نظر از هم سو بودن و یا غیرِ هم سو بودنِ آن نهاد ها، امری اجتناب ناپذیر به نظر می رسد. با این وجود پدیدار گشتنِ چنین مباحثِ حائز اهمییتی در میان منتقدین، با ظهورِ مکتب ما...

The Evaporation of Water from Helix Aspersa

It is known that the activity of terrestrial pulmonates is connected in some way to the extensive and often rapid fluctuations in water content which are characteristic of these animals (Howes & Wells, 1934; Wells, 1944). The work of Hughes & Kerkut (1956) and Kerkut & Taylor (1956) has further shown that the activity of the pedal ganglion of slugs changes with the osmotic pressure of the bathi...
