Abstract:
The pyrometallurgical processing of copper concentrates produces SO₂-bearing offgas. SO₂ in the offgas is catalytically oxidized to SO₃ and absorbed into a ∼98.5% H₂SO₄-H₂O mixture in a sulfuric acid plant. This research provides an analysis of a copper smelter sulfuric acid plant and discusses the control and optimization necessary to attain the following goals: (a) minimize smelter SO₂ emissions; (b) maximize acid plant capacity and availability. The objectives of this work are to: (a) prepare mathematical descriptions of sulfuric acid plant operations; compare the mathematical predictions w

In mineral processing, one of the most important and versatile separation methods is flotation. Flotation utilizes the different surface properties of the valuable minerals in the ore to separate them from the less valuable gangue material in the ore. Crushed and ground ore is mixed with water and fed into flotation tanks. In the flotation tanks, the particles of valuable mineral are made hydrophobic. That way, they can be floated by attaching to air bubbles and gather on top of the flotation tank as froth. This froth, containing higher concentrations of valuable mineral, is recovered and then

To meet the increasing demand for raw materials, higher throughput of mineral separation through froth flotation is becoming important.

Abstract:
An investigation has been performed on the strain ageing of welded and non-welded specimen of low carbon steel. It was determined that the low carbon steel were susceptible to strain ageing in interstitial solutes. The increase in yield strength, tensile strength and elongation because of strain ageing has been compared between welded and non-welded specimen. At high level of prestrain, the percentage loss in ductility was observed. Increase in the strain-ageing temperature the value of ΔY increased, increase the time of ageing has also got influence on value of ΔY. However the influence of te

Abstract:
Material of Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) should have good fracture toughness to ensure safe operation of nuclear reactor. In order to be on safe side the fracture characteristics of RPV material have to be quantified. In this present work the fracture characteristics of 20MnMoNi55 steel – the material used for Indian PHWR – have been found using J-Integral test. The microstructures of the steel and its relevant mechanical properties such as hardness and tensile properties have been characterized. Monotonic J-R curves of the material have been determined in the temperature of and . Fracture

Abstract:
Copper has high electrical and thermal conductivities, good corrosion resistance at ambient temperature, excellent malleability/workability and reproducibility, apart from these it is cheap and abundantly available metal other than good conducting metals like Silver. But has poor mechanical properties such as hardness and wear resistance. Some applications like Contacts in electrical switches necessitate the improvements in the mechanical properties without much loss of electrical and thermal conductivities. Bulk modification / alloying have been tried but limitations in alloying and adversel

Abstract:
We report simple methods to synthesize Zinc oxide nanostructures, without using catalysis with less complicity. This was done by oxidation of zinc foil at various temperatures (200oC-1000oC) and various times (1-3h) and also we find that the nanostructures size and shape depends on heating rate, temperature and heating time. Apart from oxidation of zinc we also find zinc oxide nanostructures in Zn-C dry battery. This nanostructure is formed on inner surface of Zn container (which acts as anode). These nanostructures are formed due reaction between electrolyte (mixture composed of manganese (IV

Full text
Abstract:
This investigation examines the ratcheting fatigue behaviour and post-fatigue tensile properties of commercial aluminium in annealed and normalised condition. Ratcheting is the phenomena of progressive accumulation of permanent deformation when a component is subjected to asymmetric cyclic loading which also causes variation in their mechanical properties. One set of commercial aluminium rods were annealed by soaking the as received rods at 200°C for 30 minutes prior to machining and other set were normalised up to same temperature with same soaking time. The microstructural examinations were

Full text
Abstract:
2.25Cr-1Mo and modified 9Cr-1Mo are extensively used for super heater and reheater tube, header pipe in large-scale thermal and nuclear power plant. Some of the important factors to be considered for selection of such steels are resistance to creep deformation, resistance to environmental attack, corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance. Long term exposure at elevated temperature and pressure can result in microstructural changes. The effective strength, i.e. load bearing capacity of the tubes due to microstructural damages decreases. The failure occurs when it falls below a critical level d

Full text
Abstract:
Heterogeneous microstructures of aluminium alloys such as 7075, which are extensively used in aircraft structures, render them highly susceptible to corrosion. Corrosion can adversely affect aircraft structural integrity since fatigue cracks can nucleate from corrosion pits and grow at an accelerated rate in corrosive environment. During its service life, an aircraft structure typically experiences corrosion between flights and fatigue loading during flight, thus pointing to the need for quantifying the effects of ‘prior corrosion’ on fatigue behaviour. This phenomenon, termed corrosion-fatigu

Abstract:
The present project work on “Reduction and Swelling Behaviour of Fired Iron Ore Pellets” was undertaken with a view to promote the effective utilization of iron ore and coal fines in sponge iron making. Presently, India has become the world leader in sponge iron production and the production of steel by DR-EAF route is increasing day by day. In the present project work, the effect of addition of concentrated sugarcane juice binder on the physical properties of fired iron ore pellets was investigated. The crushing strength and drop number were found to be maximum at 2% binder addition, followed
