The package of increases in defined-contribution pension plan contribution limits that Congress enacted in 2001 could have benefited at most 8 percent of plan participants and 3 percent of all workers. High earners were potentially more likely to benefit than low earners, and potential beneficiaries generally had higher earnings than other participants. The increase in the percentage limit on c...

Binder Fraction Reduction in Non-ferrous Metals Concentrates Briquetting Process

M. Jodkowski, J. Łabaj, J. Brzóska, D. Jama – Silesian University of Technology, Katowice, Poland The research results on a method of reducing the amount of binder applied during formation of metal concentrates are presented. Research was done on a model copper concentrate, which was mixed in assumed mass fraction with binder, as well as binder with addition of waste polyols. Such mixtures were...

Analysis of total metals in waste molding and core sands from ferrous and non-ferrous foundries.

Waste molding and core sands from the foundry industry are successfully being used around the world in geotechnical and soil-related applications. Although waste foundry sands (WFSs) are generally not hazardous in nature, relevant data is currently not available in Argentina. This study aimed to quantify metals in waste molding and core sands from foundries using a variety of metal-binder combi...
