Single stage recirculation filtrations were performed to remove oversized particles from colloidal silica based Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) slurry. Proper filtration was demonstrated to achieve rapid removal of oversized particles while not altering the percent solids of the CMP slurry. Mathematical models were developed to simulate particle reduction in CMP slurry distribution systems....

With the continuous development of coal and rock mass engineering, water inrush grouting has become an urgent problem in engineering disaster management. Herein, a theoretical model optimal plugging flow rate was established, comparative analysis performed based on results indoor tests. The particle incipient velocity defined as rate. effects hydrodynamic velocity, water-cement ratio, pressure,...

Coal will continue to be the most demanded energy source worldwide, which highlights the importance of better understanding current practices and environmental impacts of this industry. Indonesia is the largest coal exporter in the world, but studies evaluating the environmental impacts of the coal industry in this country are missing in the literature. A case study of the Indonesian coal suppl...

In the coal preparation plant, the run of mine coal undergoes a series of operations, including washing, wet screening, sedimentation and dewatering. The process requires the circulation of large volumes of water from which large volumes of waste water containing a variety of solid particles are generated. Clarification of the tailing water is often carried out in a thickener by adding suitable...

Hydrogen and electricity produced from coal will represent a significant share in the energy mix within the foreseeable future. Various novel processes are developed or currently under development for hydrogen and electricity production from coal derived syngas. The commercial coal to hydrogen and coal to electricity processes include the coal gasification-water gas shift process and integrated...

The use of elastomer additives to solve the problems in oil well cementing has been investigated in recent years by several research groups in the petroleum industry. This study includes the laboratory examination of the effect of elastomer additives on the physical properties of heavy-weight oil well cement. In the research process, a candidate well is selected and the properties of the cement...

Chemical amendment of dairy cattle slurry has been shown to effectively reduce incidental phosphorus (P) losses in runoff; however, the effects of amendments on incidental nitrogen (N) losses are not as well documented. This study examined P and N losses in runoff during three simulated rainfall events 2, 10 and 28 days after a single application of unamended/chemically amended dairy cattle slu...

With this purpose in mind, an ozone generator device was coupled to a slurry ice system working subzero at -1.5oC. The ozone concentration was adjusted to a ...

Deep mining has started in the Huaibei area, and serious threat of high confined water on floor to coal seam is gradually increasing. Based deep project at working face II633 Hengyuan mine, this paper theoretically analyzes damage depth risk inrush from floor. The best proportion grouting materials was quantitatively optimized by indoor experiments, an industrial field test conducted judge effe...
