The Preparation And Physical Properties Of Benzene- And Toluene-Sulphonamides, Karl K. Kershner

Masters Theses

"The formation of sulphonamide derivatives is often of distinct importance. These substances are easily purified and give sharp mepting points which make them of value for identification phases of research work. Also they are of value commercially as in the production of saccharin and other similar compounds. The purpose of this investigation is to secure information on the comparative production and yield of sulphonamides, and intermediate products, formed from their respective ring hydrocarbons, as benzene and toluene. careful melting point are taken on purified products and solubility curves developed for different solvents. The latter give an interesting basis for comparison"--Introduction, …

Efficient Field Methods For The Petroleum Geologist, Phillips Brooks Dolman

Professional Degree Theses

"The methods and systems suggested for the use of the petroleum geologist in the following manuscript are intended not only as subject matter for a thesis but also, I sincerely wish, that they may be of some use and help to those of The Missouri School of Mines who are planning to take up petroleum geology as a profession, but have not yet had the opportunity to study the practical or field end of this work ... This article is by no means intended as a text; the principal object being, as previously stated, to offer a few systems, methods, …

Mining, Concentration And Refining Of American Flake Graphite By The Griesemer Graphite Company, Joseph C. Barton

Professional Degree Theses

"The Griesemer Graphite Company was incorporated June 3, 1916, under the laws of Alabama, for the purpose of mining, milling and refining of flake graphite...Owing to strong competition in the graphite game, it will be impossible to give many interesting facts and figures in this thesis. The screen analysis worked for after each operation is carefully watched and the preparing of the ore, as well as the sizing of the flake, is one of the most important features in the production of flake graphite, especially that grade required by the crucible makers and the lubricating manufacturers. The carbon content is …

Unique Method Of Driving Large Tunnel At The Hannibal Quarry Of The Atlas Portland Cement Company, James Leonidas Boucher

Metallurgical Bookkeeping, John Owen Ambler

Professional Degree Theses

"A system of costs and metallurgical records similar to that outlined herein is in use in a number of modern Smelters, and is of interest as showing what information is desirable for proper plant control. From a study of this information, which is usually compiled monthly in such a manner that comparisons may be readily made, it is possible to modify current practice to obtain maximum operating efficiency, and to approximate very closely the benefit that may be derived from changes in and additions to the plant itself and the methods of operation, or in the materials received and treated. …

Electrolytic And Furnace Refining Of Copper In South East Missouri, Ray Gould Knickerbocker

Professional Degree Theses

"This article treats with the production of refined ingot copper from a Copper-Cobalt-Nickel Matte. The method employed to separate Copper from Cobalt and Nickel was the electrolytic process. The information given is the result of my experience as Superintendent of the copper department for The Missouri Cobalt Company, Fredericktown, Missouri. In order to simplify the article, it shall be divided into four parts, namely (1) the quality of product delivered to the copper department; (2) the leaching plant; (3) the electrolytic plant; (4) the furnace refinery"--Page 1.

Rules For Official Tractor Tests, Nebraska Tractor Test Lab, Agicultural Experiment Station

Nebraska Tractor Tests

The Nebraska Tractor Law known as House Roll 85, 37th session, which became effective July 15, 1919, was enacted to encourage the manufacture and sale of imporved types of tractors and to contribute to a more successful use of the tractor for farming.

It was thought that the best method of accomplishing these objects would be to require a tractor of each model sold in the State to be tested at the State University and to have the results of these tests made public. These tests will give reliable information on the power capacity and fuel consumtion of each tractor …

Rules For Tractor Demonstrations, Nebraska Tractor Test Lab

Nebraska Tractor Tests

The object of these rules, instructions and data is to make all tractor demonstrations of this kind comparable and of the greatest educational value. Anyone who has conducted tractor demonstrations in the past has realized the necessity of some standard rules to follow and those who afterwards have referred to the results, deplore the lack of uniformity in the demonstrations and the data. For those who have not had this experience will find that it is a great help to have satisfactory rules to follow.

The value of these demonstrations depends largely upon the accuracy of the data reported on …

Descriptive Study Of The Petroleum Refinery At MinatitláN, GermáN GarcíA Lozano

Professional Degree Theses

"In order to reduce as much as possible the cost of transportation of the crude oil to the refinery, the city of Minatitlán of Minatitlán County in the State of Veracruz was chosen as the most proper place for establishing the refinery it being in the center of the only oil fields which at that time possessed the "Eagle Mexican Petroleum Co."--page 1.

The Goltra Process Of Concentrating Iron Ores As Developed At Waukon, Iowa, Ernest Wander

Professional Degree Theses

"The more or less impure iron bearing mineral occurs mixed with a very tenacious clay, in which are also found chert, cretaceous quartz pebbles, pockets of sand, masses of pebbles and sand cemented by hydrous iron oxide, (which in some cases partly replaces the silica) and several varieties of fossils, such as crinoids etc. The impurities mentioned are often an integral part of the ore particles, and are present in varying quantities thruout [sic] the deposit. But, besides the foreign matter which the eye can discern, the apparently pure mineral contains a varying percentage of silica and alumina, (as well …

Concentration Of A Joplin Slime By Flotation, Earl Joseph Weimer, Walter Harry Freudenberg

Bachelors Theses

"Concentration of the Joplin slimes by means of flotation is a subject receiving considerable attention at the present time, due to high price of zinc. These slimes are the accumulation of the finer particles of the ore during the milling process, and their zinc content is well worth considering. The practice in the past has been to sluice these slimes into the tailing pond, as no economical method of saving the zinc had been employed. The object of our experiment was to economically extract from these slimes by flotation, a product of sufficient zinc content to be of commercial value"--Introduction, …

Selective Concentration Of A Complex Ore By Flotation, Paul Frederick Pape, Ralph Dale

Bachelors Theses

"The problem of the Mining Engineer and Metallurgical Engineer who wishes to treat the slimes and fine sands of a complex ore is the recovery and separation of minerals so as to render a subsequent treatment of any mineral profitable. The minerals must be separated into groups which can be treated by different processes, because a combination of numerous minerals is extremely undesirable at the smelting plant. In a lead ore the presence of zinc often depletes its value to such an extent that it is unprofitable to treat it; likewise with other minerals and ores. Many systems of selective …

A Thesis Presented To The President And The Faculty Of Marquette University For The Degree Of Bachelor Of Science In Civil Engineering And Bachelor Of Science In Electrical Engineering, Anthony B. Czachurski, Benjamin D. Ratke, Joseph G. Casey, William H. Stephan

Bachelors’ Theses

In the work covered by this thesis it is desired to examine an undeveloped water power for the purpose of producing electrical energy as a commercial comodity. Experience has taught that it is best to ascertain first where the product will find its market, and to follow up a satisfactory showing at that end by determining the power capacity of the source, the feasibility of harnessing the same, and the cost of accomplishing this. This program would be adopted in any commercial enterprise to insure a reliable conclusion, and will be followed as closely as possible in the work covered …
