Adsorption of C.I. Basic Blue 9 (Methylene Blue Hydrate) on the surface of TiO2-SiO2 oxide composite unmodified or functionalized with N-2-(aminoethyl)-3-amino propyltrimethoxsysilane was investigated. The organic dye was supported on inorganic TiO2-SiO2 oxide composite precipitated in the emulsion system. The process of adsorption was performed for the dye concentrations from 100 to 3000 mg/dm3....
Ionic liquids were found to be selective solvents for separation of gases. They are widely used in supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs) technology, especially in gas separation and purification processes. This work has characterized commercially available porous membranes employed in such purposes. Characterization of supports and membrane phases was carried out in order to determine factors influencing...
The energy consumption during granulation process in horizontal drum granulators at variable process and equipment parameters: drum diameter, angular velocity and the degree of drum filling with raw material was investigated. The feed was wetted drop-wise during tumbling at a constant liquid flow rate. During the whole process the instantaneous values of the driving torque on the shaft were measured...
The study of nucleation and granule formation in a bed of fine-grained material during the phase of batch damping in the process of periodical disc granulation was conducted. The study was carried out on laboratory disc (diameter - 0.5 m), with the use of constant disc filling with powder material, constant slope angle 50 between the disk axis and level and constant rotational speed of device. Foundry...
The control of water quality in swimming pool is accomplished by treatment, including filtration and application of disinfectants. Contamination of pool water cannot be always effectively controlled by normal treatment. Swimming pool sediments were investigated previously and insufficient filtration efficiency for sand filters was noticed. In presented experiments two filtration medium materials were...
This paper reports results of investigations on suitability of scoria (PTS), collected from Patnos (Agri) in Turkey, for blended cement production. Scoria (basic pumice) was chosen as cement replacement materials due to its availability and cost in Agri in Turkey. The portland cement was replaced by scoria within the range of 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50%. Characterization of scoria was subjected by...
The influence of adsorption and co-adsorption of PEO-PPO-PEO triblock copolymers (Pluronics) as well as surfactants on the zeta potential of magnesite and dolomite aqueous suspension are addressed here. Four Pluronics of various molecular weight were used in these studies. They have been mixed with cationic (CTAB) or anionic (SDS) surfactants. The adsorption isotherms of copolymers and copolymer-surfactant...
Results presented in this paper consider research on the influence of the presence of surfactants (cationic CTAB, anionic SDS) on adsorption of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) at the titanium dioxide/solution interface. Research was carried out as a function of concentration of surfactants and the way of introduction of reagents to measured mixtures (PAA-CTAB-TiO2-NaCl and PAA-SDS-TiO2-NaCl). In order to...
The problems of possible application of de-agglometration operations into industrial HPGR-based crushing circuits, were presented in the paper. The HPGR technology has the potential to provide a significant circuit efficiency increases from technological (better comminution efficiency) and economic (lower energy- consumption of crushing process) scopes. However, the HPGR product is usually compressed...
The main raw materials for chromium metal is chromite. Geologically, chromite deposits are associated, by their nature of formation, with specific gangue minerals such as serpentine, olivine, and chlorite. These associated minerals are of lower densities than chromite. This criterion of density difference between chromite and the associated minerals suggests the use of gravity separation techniques...
Influence of sodium chloride (NaCl) addition on bubble velocity in solutions of sodium n-octylsulfate (SOS), n-decylsulfate (SDS) and n-dodecylsulfate (SDDS) was studied. The NaCl concentration was varied from 0.0001 to 0.05 M. Profiles of the bubble local velocity, that is, variations of the bubble local velocity with distance from the point of the bubble formation (capillary), were determined. At...
In this paper the activation of oxidized surface of anthracite waste coal was investigated. Coal weathering leads to physical and chemical changes on the coal surfaces and a reduction of its hydrophobicity and floatability. The changes and the presence of oxygen functional groups in the structure and surfaces coal was confirmed by the FTIR study on the raw and waste coal. The groups have remarkable...
A new method of obtaining a ZnO-SiO2 synthetic composite from emulsion systems is described. The reagents were solutions of sodium silicate and zinc sulphate, cyclohexane was used as an organic solvent and non-ionic surfactants as modifiers. The influence of the mode of reagents dosing and type of emulsifiers on the physicochemical properties, structure and particle size of ZnO-SiO2 was evaluated...
Depression of pyrite is very important in sulphide ore flotation. This paper investigates the role of non-toxic depressants on the flotation of pyrite. Starch and meta bisulphite were used as a depressant for pure pyrite sample and a pyritic copper ore at two different pHs values. pH was 6.5 and 10 in pure pyrite study while it was 6.9 and 12 in pyritic ore study. This study showed that metabisulphite...
The facilitated transport of Cu(II), Zn(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) ions from different aqueous nitrate source phases (cMe = 0.001M, pH 6.0) across polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) consisting of cellulose triacetate (support) and 2-nitrophenylpentyl ether (plasticizer) doped with 1-decyl-2-methylimidazol as ion carrier was reported. The membrane is characterised by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and...
Carbon dioxide and water vapor were effectively photoconverted to methane using either pure or modified-TiO2 and UV-Vis irradiation. The process of photoconversion in the gas phase was carried out in a tubular reactor equipped with a perforated TiO2-coated support. The effect of selected parameters of TiO2 immobilization procedure, such as the time and temperature of drying step and the photocatalyst...
This paper presents a theoretical analysis of the potential capacity enhancement that can be obtained by employing collective particle ejection (CPE) in automated sensor-based sorting circuits when sorting asymmetric feeds. During CPE sorting particles are examined and categorised individually, but physically separated as a set containing several particles. A CPE sorter must be placed in serial connection...
The article presents the results of studies on the kinetics of grinding of granite taking into consideration the morphology and mechanical properties of particular size fractions of the feed. The study was conducted in a mill on a semi-technical scale. Milling was carried out periodically using several sets of grinding media. The output fraction of the ground material was of size 3-5 mm. The granulometric...
Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to measure the charge transfer resistance of the reaction: Fe3+ + e- = Fe2+ and electrical double layer capacitance on pyrite electrodes of different origin both freshly polished and conditioned in the solutions of several surface active substances which may be used as potential inhibitors of the oxidation of pyrite. The following substances were used...
