A Guide To Fifty Years Of Research At Montana Tech: Part 3-Decontamination Of Ratioactively Contaminated Steel By Melt Refining/Slagging Processing, Larry G. Twidwell, Samuel A. Worcester

Metallurgy

This presentation includes a discussion of the research conducted at Montana Tech in the Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering. The discussion is focused on Decontamination of Radioactively Contaminated Steel by Melt Refining/Slagging. This presentation is based on the research of Master of Science graduate students, industrial and academic colleagues, at the Montana College of Mineral Science and Technology (which morphed to Montana Tech [1977], then to Montana Tech of The University of Montana [2000], then to Montana Technological University [2019]). The referenced work of each of the graduate students in this presentation is gratefully acknowledged. The following summary presentation …

A Guide To Fifty Years Of Research At Montana Tech: Part 2 The Treatment Of Electroplating And Electromachining Metal Hydroxide Sludge For The Recovery Of Metal Values [See Also Part 1), Larry G. Twidwell

Metallurgy

ABSTRACT and FORWARD

The treatment and recovery of metal species from hydrometallurgical solutions and wastewater solids has been and continues to be an important research topic. This presentation includes a guide to the literature with a summary discussion of the research conducted at Montana Tech in the Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering during the 1984-2001 period. A previous presentation (Part 1) focused on the removal of arsenic, selenium, and other species by hydrometallurgical processes and the formation of environmentally stable disposable products. This guide is available at the reference presented above.

This following presentation (Part 2) is based on …

A Guide To Fifty Years Of Research At Montana Tech: Part 1-The Treatment Of Arsenic, Selenium, Thallium, Metal Bearing Solutions And Waste Solids, Larry G. Twidwell

Metallurgy

ABSTRACT and FORWARD

The removal of arsenic, selenium, and metal species from hydrometallurgical solutions and wastewaters has been and continues to be an important research topic. This presentation includes a discussion of the research conducted at Montana Tech in the Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering during the past fifty years. The discussion is focused on removal of arsenic by co-precipitation with Fe(III) and Fe(II), co-precipitation with Fe(III) and Al(III), reduction using elemental iron; the removal of selenium by elemental iron and catalysed iron; and the removal of cadmium, copper, nickel, zinc by co-precipitation with Fe(III) and Al(III).

Treatment Of Arsenic-Bearing Minerals And Fixation Of Recovered Arsenic Products: An Updated Review, Larry G. Twidwell

Metallurgy

Mineral processing and extractive metallurgical operations have created and are creating appreciable arsenic bearing wastewater and waste solid products that have to be handled, treated for recycle, or treated for environmentally safe disposal. At present there are intense research and operational activities being conducted to provide the best viable processing procedures to ensure that the mineral processing and extractive metallurgical industries are profitable and environmentally secure. The focus of this presentation is on the element arsenic, even though many other deleterious elements may also be present in ores and concentrates. Numerous base metal resources contain arsenic bearing minerals, especially resources …
