in order to decrease the discharge from sulfide mine flotation plants, treatment and reuse approaches based on our previous wastewater monitoring experiments were explored in these plants. the flotation wastewater was collected from the case plant and was treated with coagulation sedimentation and activated carbon adsorption. then, the effluent was examined for reuse in the flotation process. f...

a novel composite adsorbent, silica aerogel activated carbon was synthesized by sol-gel process atambient pressure drying method. the composite was characterized by fourier transform infraredspectroscopy (ft-ir), scanning electron microscopy (sem), differential scanning calorimetry(dsc) and nitrogen adsorption / desorption isotherms (bet).in the present study, the mentioned adsorbent was used m...

We review recent results on the behaviour of the dielectric function of cylindrical nano-organic materials at very low frequencies in a magnetic field. For cylindrical structures such as carbon nanotubes the polarisability is shown to be a discontinuous function of a longitudinal magnetic field where plateaulike regions are separated by sudden jumps or peaks. A relation is pointed out between e...

Supercapacitors are energy storage devices that offer a high power density and a low energy density in comparison with batteries. Their limited energy density can be overcome by using asymmetric configuration in mass electrodes, where each electrode works within their maximum available potential window, rendering the maximum voltage output of the system. Such asymmetric capacitors are optimized...

magnetic force microscope ( mfm ) is a powerful technique for mapping the magnetic force gradient above the sample surface. herein, single-wall carbon nanotubes (swcnt) were used to fabricate mfm probe by dielectrophoresis method which is a reproducible and cost-effective technique. the effect of induced voltage on the deposition manner of carbon nanotubes (cnt) on the atomic force microscope (...
