Waste water purification is shown to be an important field of environmental hygiene for non-ferrous metal industries. Hydrometallurgy becomes of greater importance for metal production and refining. Quality standards for drinking water and rivers require a minimum of some harmful impurities, e.g. metal compounds. The unit operations of hydrometallurgy technologically parallel the methods of eff...

Induction heating has been employed to rapidly raise the temperature of ferrous specimens prior to testing at strain-rates > 10 s". The results show a general tendency for the ductility of a specially-processed pure iron to decrease with temperature over the range tested (20400 C). Based on the experimental data and the results of numerical simulations of the experiment, an empirical fracture m...

Materials and methods A retrospective case-control study was performed. Industry workers from a nonferrous plant and controls were monitored for an 8-year period. During this period, all workers received regular clinical examinations, which included evaluation for smoking status, occupational exposure to noxious non-ferrous metals (lead, Pb; cadmium, Cd), and cardiovascular disease (hypertensio...

Although Dahongshan Copper Mine, a subsidiary of Chinalco Co., Ltd., has large production scale, it is still non-ferrous metal underground mine with low mechanization and labor efficiency due to its early production. In recent years, mines have carried out number beneficial scientific explorations practices on safety management. According their own actuality, they combined They done meticulousl...

Several cervical spine braces and orthoses were evaluated for their compatibility with imaging in the MR scanner. Nine such devices were investigated: EXO cervical collar, Philadelphia collar, S.O.M.I. cervical orthosis, Guilford cervical orthosis, modified Guilford cervical orthosis, PMT halo cervical orthosis, modified PMT halo cervical orthosis, Bremer halo system, and Bremer MR-compatible h...
