Many research studies have been conducted on the liberation of locked minerals using a crusher and comparing this device with the other devices. This paper reviews the liberation of middle coal by different methods of crushing force. In the Tabas coal washing plant, particles of 0.5-50 mm size are processed through the heavy media method (using 3 Tri-flo separators) and particles of 0-0.5 mm si...

turmeric (cucurma longa) has been used as an antioxidant agent in medical as well as health sciences some years ago. however, it has not been applied in tissue culture till now. browning tissues is result of tissue damages caused by polyphenoloxidase enzyme. in order to study this problem and reduce browning, explants are cultured in culture media containing antioxidants including citric acid, ...

Today coal is among the most important energy sources. In order to meet the world's energy demands, low-calorie lignite with a high ash content is generally used in the large capacity coal-fired thermal power plants. As a result of coal firing, wastes such as fly ash, slag, and flue gas are also produced. Subsequently, toxic trace elements within coal are transferred to wastes such as slag, fl...

Working condition in underground mining are associated with many important risk factors for workers' health such as work injuries and occupational diseases. Coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP) is a preventable lung disease caused by occupational exposure to coal mine dust and was observed highly common in coal miners. Respira-ble coal dust concentration in working area, duration of exposure and ...

Sedgley et al [1] studied several different types of charcoal, including those derived from coconut, coal, hardwood, and petroleum byproducts. The charcoal with the best pumping characteristics (speed and capacity) was PCB coconut charcoal, US mesh size 12x30 (granule size 0.6-1.7 mm). This type of charcoal did not have the largest overall surface area (per volume), despite what one might expec...

Leaching of fluoride from fly ash has been studied at different ash/water ratios and temperatures and also over a broad range of pH. The efficiency of leaching was only slightly dependent on the ash/water ratio, thus revealing a solubilitycontrolled mechanism of the process. The efficiency was also independent of the temperature over the range 20 90°C.

Tabas mines in Iran have coal sources which are suitable for use in metallurgy industries as coking coal. But the high sulfur content of this coal imposes severe limitations on its utilization as the sulfur oxide gases evolved from the combustion of high sulfur coals result in acid rains and corrosion of equipments. In this work, attempts have been made to reduce sulfur from high sulfur coa...
