Intra-granular Acicular Ferrite (IAF), as one of the most well-known desirable microstructure of ferrite with a chaotic crystallographic orientation, can not only refine the microstructure and retard the propagation of cleavage crack but also provide excellent combination of strength and toughness in steel. The effect of adding cerium on microstructure and controlling proper cerium-based inclus...

We report the synthesis of cerium oxide, cobalt oxide, mixed cerium, and cobalt oxides and a Ce-Co/Al₂O₃ membrane, which are employed as catalysts for the catalytic wet oxidation (CWO) reaction process and the removal of formaldehyde from industrial effluents. Formaldehyde is present in numerous waste streams from the chemical industry in a concentration low enough to make its recovery not econ...

The mixed-valent cerium(III/IV) oxide clusters {Ce(10)} and {Ce(22)}, derived from condensation reactions of cerium carboxylate coordination polymers, exhibit molecular growth tendencies similar to those of 'classical' group V and VI polyoxometalates, but with increasing nuclearity approach the structure of the parental oxide, CeO(2).

investigations were carried out on coal tailings by conventional cell and column flotation techniques. tests were conducted to assess processing coal tailings of alborz markazi coal washing plant in iran by column flotation. the effects of reagent type/dosage were investigated with conventional flotation and their results were used in the performance of column flotation. also the effects of the...

In this study, Chlorella zofingiensis harvesting by dissolved air flotation (DAF) was critically evaluated with regard to algal concentration, culture conditions, type and dosage of coagulants, and recycle ratio. Harvesting efficiency increased with coagulant dosage and leveled off at 81%, 86%, 91%, and 87% when chitosan, Al(3+) , Fe(3+) , and cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were used at...

Undoped and cerium doped LaCO(3)OH annular-shaped nanoarchitectures with high specific surface area have been fabricated via the thermolysis of Ce(x)La(1-x)(oleate)(3) (x = 0-20 mol %) complexes in a toluene-water system containing tert-butylamine/oleylamine. The products exhibit 400 nm-sized monodisperse annular-shaped nanoarchitectures, which are constituted of 3-5 nm-sized primary particles....

Flotation recovery in geometallurgical modelling is usually predicted based on relationships developed from batch flotation testing of different ore types. These batch flotation tests are usually performed at a constant set of operating conditions and at a fixed feed grind size P80. Usually the laboratory feed grind P80 is that which is expected to be produced in the full-scale flotation circui...

INTRODUCTION The objective of this qualitative case report was to describe experiences of flotation-Restricted Environmental Stimulation Technique from the perspective of a woman with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Aspergers syndrome and experiences of depression and distress. CASE PRESENTATION The respondent is a 36-year-old woman from Sweden, assessed and diagnosed by a neuropsyc...

Two biodegradable quaternary ammonium salts were synthesized and used as cationic collectors in processing iron ores by froth flotation. The flotation behaviors of iron minerals with the new biodegradable quaternary ammonium collectors were investigated by micro-flotation tests of quartz (SiO2) and magnetite (Fe3O4). It was observed that the new biodegradable collectors were effective in separa...

A suitable grinding fineness and flow-sheet could potentially reduce the mechanical entrainment of gangue minerals in the flotation process of microcrystalline graphite. In this study, the suitable grinding fineness of a commercial graphite ore was estimated by mineralogy analysis and laboratory grind-flotation tests. The target grind size of this ore should be 92% passing 74 μm based on the mi...
