Monitoring and controlling of mineral precipitation is a major challenge in several industry segments such as oil gas or geothermal energy. Especially at elevated pressures, temperatures, salinities, these reactions are poorly understood difficult to predict. Real-time monitoring under conditions, however, crucial for reduction prevention scaling well process modelling. In this study, novel fib...

in this paper, the effect of polypropylene fibers added to concrete on strength and thermal resistance of high strength concrete has been investigated. therefore, five tests have been carried out to reach this goal which it includes; effect of weight percent of polypropylene fibers on mechanical properties of concrete, effect of fiber’s length on the strength of high strength concrete, effect o...

The 3.49 Ga Dresser Formation has been considered to host evidence of the earliest microbes metabolising sulfur species on Earth. However, previous bulk analyses and in situ measurements conclude disparate metabolisms based opposite ΔS. This study first established generations pyrite growth, then measured multiple isotopes using Sensitive High Resolution Ion MicroProbe-Stable Isotope analyses. ...

Background: In megavoltage radiotherapy rooms, ordinary concrete is usually used due to its low construction costs, although higher density concrete are sometimes used, as well. The use of high-density concrete decreases the required thickness of the concrete barrier hence, its disadvantage is its high cost. In a nuclear reactor, neutron radiation is the most difficult to shield. A method for p...

This study provides an up to date review of tannins, specifically quebracho, in mineral processing and metallurgical processes. Quebracho is a highly useful reagent in many flotation applications, acting as both a depressant and a dispersant. Three different types of quebracho are mentioned in this study; quebracho “S” or Tupasol ATO, quebracho “O” or Tupafin ATO, and quebracho “A” or Silvafloc...

A brief account of the representative and workable industrial minerals namely magnesite, talc and barite in Lesser Himalaya, is presented here emphasizing their genesis. Deposits of magnesite and talc are found associated with Neoproterozoic, plateform type, shelf-slope limestone-dolomite host rocks from inner Lesser Himalayan sequences. Field, textural, geochemical signatures and fluid inclusi...

regarding the increasing demand for lightweight concrete especially lightweight structural concrete, and safety requirements underlined in 2800 iranian standard, research to achieve the optimized results in lightweight concrete production seems inevitable. since, one of the commonly used methods for producing the light eight concrete, utilizes the light weight aggregates with significant role i...
