A Study Of The Differential Seperation Of Galena And Sphalerite, Wilfred E. Nagel
A Study Of The Differential Seperation Of Galena And Sphalerite, Wilfred E. Nagel
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The smelting of complex lead ores is a difficult operation, especially when they contain considerable amounts of iron and zinc. When these ores are smelted, all of the zinc, which is valuable and well worth recovering, goes into the slag. With the advent of the flotation processes, and the ability of these processes to concentrate the lead and zinc minerals into separate products, the smelting of complex lead ores was to a great extent simplified.
Separation Of Cadmium From Zinc In The Purification Step Of The Leaching Cycle, L. C. Powell
Separation Of Cadmium From Zinc In The Purification Step Of The Leaching Cycle, L. C. Powell
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The purpose of this investigation is to determine the effect of the factors listed previously by conducting a series of tests that will indicate the extent to which the purification is influenced by time, temperature, zinc oust size, zinc dust quantity, iron concentration, two stage precipitation, and aeration.
A Mineral Dressing And Economic Study Of A Complex Arsenical Ore, Luigi D. Piana
A Mineral Dressing And Economic Study Of A Complex Arsenical Ore, Luigi D. Piana
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The factors that influence the choice of a method for treatment of an ore comprise the technical and economic limitations and advantages, derived in detail and balanced according to the exigencies of the particular situation.
An Investigation Of The Precipitation Of Cobalt With Zinc Dust, Lyle Hallberg
An Investigation Of The Precipitation Of Cobalt With Zinc Dust, Lyle Hallberg
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Cobalt, as well as copper, cadmium, and other impurities, is removed by selective precipitation with zinc during the zinc electrolyte purification cycle, and the purification residue may be treated by a Cadmium Plant for the recovery of cadmium.
Aluminum - Bronze Compacts And Their Possible Use As A Bearing Material, Donald J. Mcmaster
Aluminum - Bronze Compacts And Their Possible Use As A Bearing Material, Donald J. Mcmaster
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
In the modern aspect of powder metallurgy, the first use of a sintering process was in making filaments for incandescent electric lamps.In the short while from the day of Edison to the present, the science of working with metal powders has advanced by leaps and bounds.
Construction And Operation Of A Laboaratory Size Thum Cell, Raymond Dugdale
Construction And Operation Of A Laboaratory Size Thum Cell, Raymond Dugdale
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Electrolytic silver refining was not perfected until the end of the nineteenth century. During the process of development, two systems of silver refining have come into prominence: the Moebius and the Thum types.
A Study Of The Transformation Of A Twenty-Eight Per Cent Tin Bronze, Perry A. Boukind
A Study Of The Transformation Of A Twenty-Eight Per Cent Tin Bronze, Perry A. Boukind
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
In this investigation, attention is directed to the phases covered by a 28 per cent tin alloy. When the investigation was started, consideration was given to the possibility of making a Time - Temperature - Transformation curve for this particular alloy. As the work progressed and further research was carried on, this phase of the work was abandoned.
An Investigation Into The Precipitation Of Copper From Mine Water, Using Sulfur Dioxide To Reduce The Ferric Ion Content, David S. Gleason
An Investigation Into The Precipitation Of Copper From Mine Water, Using Sulfur Dioxide To Reduce The Ferric Ion Content, David S. Gleason
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The experiments which were preformed showed that sulfur dioxide would reduce the ferric ion content of the mine waters to a very low figure. The reduction in the ferric ion content would improve the efficiency of the precipitation process, and also increase the recovery of copper.
Application Of The Electric Furnace To The Melting Of Cathode Copper At The Tacoma Smelter, Alvin H. Nelson
Application Of The Electric Furnace To The Melting Of Cathode Copper At The Tacoma Smelter, Alvin H. Nelson
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
In the field of copper metallurgy, the major changes effected in the original metallurgical scheme have been based largely upon the lowering in grade of copper ores, and the more particular demands of the fabricators of the metal. The former trend fostered the development of mineral beneficiation, which in turn caused the conversion from blast furnace to reverberatory furnace smelting.
The Characteristics Of The Electrolyte In The Series System Of Electrolytic Copper Refining, Carl W. Howald Jr.
The Characteristics Of The Electrolyte In The Series System Of Electrolytic Copper Refining, Carl W. Howald Jr.
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
Almost everyone is familiar with the tremendous importance of copper in our everyday life. One of the properties of copper which determines its great usefulness to mankind is its electrical conductivity. This property alone has more to do with the prominence of copper among useful metals then does any other.
The Casting Of Anodes For The Series System Of Electrolytic Copper Refining, Robert R. Kupfer
The Casting Of Anodes For The Series System Of Electrolytic Copper Refining, Robert R. Kupfer
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The electrolytic refining process, while usually considered an auxiliary process used in conjunction with pyrometallurgical extraction, deserves a special niche in the complex metallurgy of copper. The development of electrolytic copper refining, for example, is largely responsible for the prominence of the electrical industry. Conversely, it could be stated that the electrical industry played an important part in the development of the copper industry.
Operation Characteristics Of The Series System For Electrolytic Refining Of Copper, John T. O'Donnell
Operation Characteristics Of The Series System For Electrolytic Refining Of Copper, John T. O'Donnell
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
In the copper electrolytic refining operation, two main objectives are desired: the first is the production of a metal of desired chemical composition and physical characteristics, and the second is the recovery of the valuable by-products.
