Gallium extraction from Jajarm Bayer process liquor (Jajarm, Iran) was investigated using microemulsions. Also the behavior of aluminum was studied as an impurity. Kelex100 (4-ethyl, 1-methyl, 7-octyl, 8-hydroxyquinoleine), iso-decanol and n-butanol, and kerosene were used as the surfactant, co-surfactant, and oil phase, respectively. Ternary phase diagrams were produced using various co-surfac...

BACKGROUND Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a widespread tropical infection which has a high incidence rate in Iran. The aim of this study was to determine some epidemiological aspects of disease in Northern Khorasan Province, Iran. METHODS From 2005 to 2008, data concerning 1453 patients with CL were collected and analyzed from the different districts of health service registry of the provinc...

Low grade diasporic bauxite in the Jajarm mine with an A/S (Al2O3/SiO2) ratio of 2.3 is not usable in the Bayer process at Jajarm Alumina Complex. Due to the severe interlocking effect between the diaspore and aluminosilicate minerals (Chamosite and Kaolinite) and iron-containing minerals in a microcrystal matrix, the thermo-chemical treatment, which is independent from micro-mineralogy, was ch...

Jajarm Alumina Plant, the only Alumina powder producer in Iran, generates 500,000 tons of red mud annually. The commonest method for final disposal of red mud in Iran is Tailing dam which is neither cost-effective nor environmentally-friendly. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the possibility of red mud recovery to be used for stabilization of loose soils. Red mud samples have bee...

Reliability is an important consideration in the planning, design and operation of engineeringsystems. As the size and complexity of mining equipment continue to increase, the implica-tions of equipment failure become ever more critical. One method to mitigate the impact offailures is to improve the reliability of the equipment. One of the purposes of system reliabil-ity analysi...

the solvent extraction of gallium from a concentrated jajarm bayer process liquor containing 164.90 g/l of na2o, 86.70 g/l of al2o3 and 106.02 ppm of gallium was investigated using 10 vol.% kelex100, a 7-alkyl substituted-8 hydroxyquinoline as an extractant, 10 vol.% etanol as a modifier and kerosene as a diluent. at (vo :va = 1.0:1.0) organic to aqueous phase ratio and at room temperature, 93....
