Sulfide lead resources are being depleted and the exploitation of carbonate lead deposits is now the main focus of lead mining. Cerussite, PbCO3, is majorly discarded to tailing damps because it is difficult to be processed by flotation in lead concentration units. This paper not only investigates the optimization of cerussite flotation, but it also proposes a model for predict...

This work presents a quantitative predicting likely acid mine drainage (AMD) generation process throughout tailing particles resulting from the Sarcheshmeh copper mine in the south of Iran. Indeed, four predictive relationships for the remaining pyrite fraction, remaining chalcopyrite fraction, sulfate concentration, and pH have been suggested by applying the gene expression programming (GEP) a...

The scientific disposal of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is of great significance to the urban ecological environment and the residents’ health. Taking into account the economic, technical, environmental, social indicators, as well as their subindicators, analyzing fourteen evaluation factors, the paper discusses four kinds of disposal methods of MSW using AHP and Fuzzy comprehensive evaluation. ...

When the wind turbine pitch system is in operation, due to strong coupling of internal structure system, it difficult accurately locate fault only relying on prior knowledge. And when using data-driven contribution graph method for location, influence variable, value non-fault variable will become larger, which cause a tailing effect and misdiagnosis. In this paper, multiblock kernel principal ...

BACKGROUND According to the WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP) for water supply and Sanitation definition, safe child feces disposal practices include: children defecation into a latrine, disposal of child stools in a latrine or burial. Inappropriate disposal of human feces including unsafe child feces disposal facilitates the transmission of pathogens. However, the factors associated ...

Nesidioblastosis is quantitative as well as qualitative abnormality of pancreatic endocrine cells. There is scattering of small endocrine cell clusters arranged haphazardly rather than the peripheral location within the lobule. Islet contours are irregular, tailing off into parenchyma. These islets are present in intimate association with ducts forming ductuloinsular complexes We recently encou...

Almost all major nuclear operations produce residues containing radioactive materials; in reactor operations, for example, the fission products, new elements (such as plutonium) produced by neutron irradiation and the unfissioned nuclear fuel are all radioactive. Some of this material can be put to further use: useful radioisotopes, for instance, can be extracted from the fission products and p...

Premature disposal of female calves before reaching milch herd and undesirable disposal of lactating cows are the major constraints in achieving larger herd size. During the early lactations, younger cows are supposed to give higher milk yield and undesirable disposal of early calvers, thereby, greatly hampers profitability of a dairy farm. Knowledge of the incidence of disposal along with reas...
