The Effect Of Carbon Dioxide Tension Upon The Ability Of Goldfish To Abosorb Oxygen At Low Tension, Thressa A. Hickman

Masters Theses

Within recent years much has been contributed to our knowledge of the physiology of respiration. Van Slyke (1921) in a study of the carbon dioxide carriers of the blood concluded that hemoglobin is almost as completely responsible for the transport of CO₂ in the blood as it is for the transport of oxygen. And that from 80% to 95%, sometimes possibly all, of the alkali furnished to neutralize the CO₂ that enters the venous blood comes from the hemoglobin.

Powers (1922) found that species of marine fishes have an optimum pH of more or less wide range for …

A Study Of Ball Mills, Robert Lee Kidd

Masters Theses

"The study of the ball mill is very complicated, due to the varying conditions existing in the mill. Some of these conditions are: Size of grinding media, size of feed, moisture content, and speed with its effect on the paths of the grinding media. A brief history of fine grinding will first be outlines, after which some of the theories of ball milling will be stated. Then the paths of the grinding media will be given some attention, and a new point of view about the trajectory will be brought out"--Introduction, page 2.

A Study Of Crime And Criminal Statistics Of Phelps County, State Of Missouri, For The Period 1899-1929, Walter Llyn Bradford

Masters Theses

"It is only within very recent years that the study of Human Society has been undertaken in a really scientific manner. It is true that the social problems have been studied and ideas suggested and discussed for their solution since the very beginning of social organization, for nowhere has there been found a state of society so perfect that all members are completely satisfied with their well-being under it...The study of crime is a part of the science of sociology and must be made according to the same methods as apply to all other kinds of social phenomena"--Introduction, page 1-3.

Elutriation Of Flotation Products, Guenther Walter Frotscher

Masters Theses

"Since the first application of the flotation process in ore dressing practice, engineers have been busy solving the most delicate relations of metal distribution in the minerals to be treated...The desire for more information was the reason for research concerning the mineral distribution in fine flotation material with particular attention to the development of a suitable laboratory method of hydraulic classification or, as it is especially called, elutriation"--Introduction, page 1-4.

Reaction Of Metallic Iron And Copper Sulphate In The Flotation Of Sphalerite, Charles Wilson Ambler

Masters Theses

"Copper sulphate is a common flotation reagent for blende ores. Metallic iron is also present in the mill circuit and a reaction between the iron and the salt would be in accord with well known chemistry. The abundance of metallic iron in a flotation feed may be noted by the examination of any feed. It originates, first of all, in the mine, then the coarse crushing machines contribute their share, and finally the fine grinding medium is a large contributor. If the grinding is with cast iron balls in amount of metallics is greater than when steel is used. In …

A Study Of The Basal Cherokee In The Rolla Area, Thomas Daniel Murphy

Masters Theses

"The occurrence of outliers of Pennsylvanian age, probably Cherokee, in and about Rolla has long been known. The Bureau of Geology and Mines and the Department of Geology of the School of Mines at Rolla have been greatly interested in the many stratigraphic problems presents. The writer has, therefore, undertaken field and laboratory studies of certain of these problems"--Introduction, page [1].
