Chromite ore processing residue occurs at over 130 sites in Hudson County, New Jersey. Many of these sites are in urban residential areas. This waste is a result of 70 years of chromate and bichromate chemical manufacturing. At least 15% of the sites contain total chromium concentrations greater than 10,000 mg/kg, with hexavalent content ranging from about 1 to 50%. Continuing leaching of this ...

Ten chromite ores from ophiolite complexes in SE Iran were analyzed mineralogically by XRD, chemically by XRF, and mineral chemistry by EPMA. The identified paragenesis of silicate minerals of chromite ores with the X-ray diffraction is pronounced differently. It consists of secondary phases formed as serpentine, Cr-containing chlorite (kaemmererite), chromic garnet (uarovite) with preserved pa...

Tuning oxygen mass transport properties at the nanoscale offers a promising approach for developing high performing energy materials. A number of strategies engineering interfaces with enhanced diffusivity and surface exchange have been proposed. However, origin magnitude such local effects remain largely undisclosed to date due lack direct measurement tools sufficient resolution. In this work,...

Binder Jetting is an Additive manufacturing (AM) technique in which binding liquid jetted on layers of powdered materials, selectively according to the Computer Aided Design (CAD) model form a 3D part. One applications binder jetting technology sand moulds for casting known as Rapid Sand Casting. Silica often used both Casting and traditional moulding due its good refractory properties coupled ...

the subduction of the northern part of the tethys is documented by arc magmatism from upper triassic to lower eocene crosscutting the sanandaj-sirjan zone and from upper eocene to plio-quaternary in the urumieh-dokhtar magmatic zone, situated north of the ssz. neyriz ophiolite is part of middle eatern neo-tethyan ocean of mesozoic that geographically is related to ophiolites of nw-se iran, alon...

Chromium (Cr) is a naturally occurring element with atomic number 24 and atomic mass of 51.996 amu. The element belongs to the group of transition metals and in the oxidation state elementary presents an electronic configuration (Ar) 4d5s1. Chromium is naturally present in the environment, it is widespread in rocks, animal, plants and soil, and is the seventh most abundant element on Earth's cr...
