The rapid development of industry increases the demand and importance chromium. In this study, beneficiation possibilities representative chromite ore taken from Tokat Province with a laboratory type jig, spiral concentrator, shaking table multi gravity separator (MGS) were investigated. Appropriate particle size fractions fed into each device. Experimental studies shown as flow chart. gave bes...

Urinary exosomes are excreted from all nephron segments and may serve as biomarkers for classifying renal diseases. Isolation of urinary exosomes by the established ultracentrifugation method has some limitations for use in a clinical laboratory. We sought a rapid and simple way to obtain urinary exosomes. We used a commercially available nanomembrane concentrator to enrich exosomes from urine ...

This paper describes a novel type of solar concentrator – a mirror symmetrical dielectric totally internally reflecting concentrator (MSDTIRC). This new concentrator type has been designed to satisfy the following objectives: (i) to provide optimum gain in two different planes, therefore increasing the electrical output of a solar photovoltaic (PV) system, and (ii) to reduce the amount of the P...

1 We report on a fabrication and packaging process for a microsystem consisting of a mass-based 2 protein detector and a fully integrated preconcentrator. Preconcentration of protein is achieved 3 by means of a nanofluidic concentrator, which takes advantage of fast non-linear electro-osmotic 4 flow near a nanochannel-microchannel junction to concentrate charged molecules inside a 5 volume of f...

This work reports tests performed to evaluate the stability of aqueous dispersions of inorganic oxide pigments with different specific surface areas, with the use of anionic and non-ionic surfactants and concentrators. Color mixtures of oxide compounds of blue, green, olive and brown with the unit cell spinel structure were used as pigments. The sodium salt of sulfosuccinic acid monoester, oxye...

The main purpose of the research was to analyze distribution Arsenic (As), Cadmium (Cd), Copper (Cu), Iron (Fe), Nickel (Ni), Cobalt (Co), Mangan (Mn), and Zinc (Zn) in soft tissues, shells, associated surface sediments Cerithidea obtusa (C. obtusa) mangrove snails collected from Sungai Besar Sepang. concentration iron (Fe) found be highest relation other toxic elements sediments, shells C. obt...

A stochastic version of a concentrator location problem is dealt with in which traffic demand at each terminal location is uncertain. The concentrator location problem is defined as to determine the following: (i) the numbers and locations of concentators that are to be open, and (ii) the allocation of terminals to concentrator sites. The problem is formulated as a stochastic multi-stage intege...

We present a microfabricated concentrator array device that makes it possible to quantify the predation rate of Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, a predatory microbe, toward its prey, Escherichia coli str. MG1655. The device can accumulate both prey and predator microbes sequentially within a series of concentrator arrays using the motility of the microbes and microfabricated arrowhead-shaped ratchet...

This thesis presents and explores an atypical method of designing a modern (computer driven) digital monitoring and control system. There are two tenets which distinguish this method from others. The first is the realization that, from the perspective of a computer driving the system, the monitoring processes and control processes are very similar: they both require the computer to send a reque...
