The Electrodeposition Of Manganese From Certain Aqueous Solutions., William C. Wallace May 1938

The Electrodeposition Of Manganese From Certain Aqueous Solutions., William C. Wallace

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Manganese has been successfully electrodeposited from aqueous solutions in past years by several work­ers in electrochemical and electrometallurgical fields.

The present work was concerned, primarily, with investigation of electrodeposition from solutions which are commercially obtainable from the hydrometallurgical or pyrometallurgical treatment of the low grade mangan­ese deposits of this country.


The Accuracy Of Pressure Gauges Used On Household Steam Pressure Cookers, Arnold E. Baragar May 1938

The Accuracy Of Pressure Gauges Used On Household Steam Pressure Cookers, Arnold E. Baragar

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

In the pressure cooker, high temperature is obtained by using steam under pressure. Since the pressure gauge is used as the indicator of temperature it is essential that the gauge register the correct pressure. Hence, this paper deals mainly with a study of the accuracy of both new and old pressure gauges used on steam pressure cookers. At the same time, four other phases were investigated: (1) the proper functioning of safety valves, (2) the various methods of sealing the lid to the cooker, (3) the proper evacuation of air from the cooker, and (4) the use of a thermometer …


A Critical Analysis Of Methods Of Securing Basic Irrigation Data Used In Water Right Determinations, A. Alvin Bishop May 1938

A Critical Analysis Of Methods Of Securing Basic Irrigation Data Used In Water Right Determinations, A. Alvin Bishop

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Agriculture in the Western United States is almost entirely dependent upon irrigation. Irrigation has transformed the desert lands into fertile, producing valleys. It has made possible communities and settlement areas which would otherwise be impossible. Although the achievements of irrigation have been great, there still remains millions of acres of fertile land that will never be reclaimed because there is not available water.

The Geology Of The Southern Central Portion Of The Morrison Cave Area., Arthur Talpt Feb 1938

The Geology Of The Southern Central Portion Of The Morrison Cave Area., Arthur Talpt

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Morrison Cave is located about 50 miles southeast of Butte, Montana. It was named after the man who discovered it. Later it was taken over by the State and renamed Morrison Cave State Park. Recently the government with the aid of the Civilian Conservation Corps has built a new road to the cave and has made the interior more accessible. The name of the cave is now Lewis and Clark Cavern National Monument.

Test 303: Allis-Chalmers Model Wc (Distillate), Nebraska Tractor Test Lab Jan 1938

Test 303: Allis-Chalmers Model Wc (Distillate), Nebraska Tractor Test Lab

Nebraska Tractor Tests

All tractors tested at the Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory were certified by their manufacturers as being stock model machines, conforming to specifications filed with the application for test. No special or high-test fuels were used except as recommended by the manufacturer as necessary.

All results within the official tractor test report were actually attained in tests and are without correction or allowances for friction, temperature, altitude, etc. The results were initially accomplished with the tractor in charge of skilled operators employed by the University.

Unless otherwise noted, each tractor was apparently in good condition at the end of the testing …

Laboratory Concentration Of A Lead-Zinc-Fluorspar Ore From Southern Illinois, Shiou-Chuan Sun Jan 1938

Laboratory Concentration Of A Lead-Zinc-Fluorspar Ore From Southern Illinois, Shiou-Chuan Sun

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this investigation was to ascertain the feasibility of preparing marketable products from a rather complex sulphide-fluorspar ore"--Object, page 2. "The ore was examined exhaustively by chemical, microscopic, and mineralogical methods of analysis. After a thorough knowledge of the physical characteristics of the ore had been obtained, flotation concentration tests were made to separate the sulfide minerals from the fluorspar and to attempt to prepare lead-zinc and fluorspar concentrates of marketable grade"--Scope of Work Done, page 2.

The Sorption Of Metallic Ions By Wood Pulp During Purification, Harold Edgar Boyd

Masters Theses

"The cost of producing cellulose acetate, and the difficulties attending its dissolving, plasticizing, and application to specific uses are problems which must be investigated before the ultimate commercial development of the material can be realized. The price of the cellulose used as raw material for acetylation is one of the primary factors influencing the cost of the finished product. At present, cotton linters constitutes the chief practical souce [sic] of acetate, being almost pure alpha-cellulose, and cheaper than staple cotton, our other source of high alpha-cellulose, Wood pulp is the only other material offering promise as a substitute for cotton, …
