The Design And Construction Of A Laboratory Model Fluidized Bed Reactor, Godfrey Paul Howard Jun 1956

The Design And Construction Of A Laboratory Model Fluidized Bed Reactor, Godfrey Paul Howard

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Fluidization has become a new and important unit operation in roasting, calcining, and drying ores because of the economy and ease of handling that it affords. Because of these reasons, and since the Montana School of Mines Metallurgical Laboratory does not have an operating model of a fluidized bed reactor, it was decided to design and construct an operating model for future research in the laboratory.


Modern Hydraulic Filling In Underground Metal Mines, Rainer Gevers May 1956

Modern Hydraulic Filling In Underground Metal Mines, Rainer Gevers

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

While the practice of back-filling is almost as old as mining, it was only when modern machines made possible the removal of vast tonnages of rock, that the support of underground workings-- by filling work-out stopes-- became peremptory from both the humane and economic aspects.


Shaft-Sinking Investigation, Johan De Beer May 1956

Shaft-Sinking Investigation, Johan De Beer

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

During the past few years there has been a tremendous advance in the rate of sinking shafts. The sinking of shafts has always been one of the more costly and time consuming operations in the development of a mine. Shaft sinking is a long-term operation and only in the past few years has there been a remarkable increase in the rate of sinking.
