To improve the utilization efficiency of Au catalyst, triangular Au nanoplates on functional reduced graphene oxide were prepared by a facile method. The products with ultra-low trace amounts of Au afforded high catalytic efficiency for the reduction of 4-nitro phenol. The morphology of the products was controlled by tuning the addition of HAuCl4.

We report the controllable coiling of colloidal gold nanowires induced by the contraction of their polymer shells. The mechanical energy stored in this process can be released upon removal or swelling of the polymer shells.

Several methods have been developed for gold exploration in the past, among which biological base method is known to be the most efficient with least expenses. This method can also be used for latent gold prospects exploration. In the present study, the possibility of applying Bacillus cereus frequency in soil as a biological marker was investigated for the exploration of latent gold prospectin...

The aim of this study is experimental assay of sensitivity and stability of a bimetallic silver/gold SPR sensor chip. This chip utilizes the sensitivity of the silver and the stability of the gold. Moreover, the Silver layer (instead of usual Cr or Ti layer) was used as an adhesive intermediate layer between the Gold layer and the glass substrate. The optimization of the Gold/Silver thickness u...

The orthogonal array design has been used to determine the optimum conditions for gold recovery from Zarshuran refractory gold sulfide ore (Iran) by direct cyanidation and roasting-cyanidation. The Taguchi method was used as the experimental design to determine the optimum conditions of dissolution behavior of gold with cyanidation and roasting-cyanidation from Zarshuran refractory gold ore . T...

This article lists a number of geological data on the conditions of formation of some major gold deposits in the conglomerates of the Earth's crust. We analyze the metallogenic, tectonic, stratigraphic and other factors controlling the formation of gold-bearing conglomerates in certain fields, such as the Witwatersrand (S. Africa) and Darwaz (Tajikistan). The following tectonic factors play the...

background: this research studied the feasibility of a simple method for extracting gold from central processing units (cpus) of computer circuit boards without solvent. methods: ceramic and composite cpus of computer circuit boards were used. gold was extracted using a hydrometallurgical method in six stages: grinding of cpus, leaching in nitric acid, leaching in aqua regia, removing the exces...

ادغام داده‌ها بین حسگرهای مختلف می‌تواند موجب استخراج اطلاعات با دقت و کیفیت بالاتر گردد بهبود تشخیص تهدیدهای هسته‌ای را به همراه داشته باشد. در این تحقیق، ردیابی چشمه متحرک استفاده از تلفیق داده­های سیستم آشکارساز پرتوی دوربین نظارتی مورد مطالعه قرار گرفت است. بدین منظور الگوریتمی جهت ایجاد همبستگی تصاویر دریافتی توسط شمارش طراحی شده است تا مسیر حرکت جسمی که بیش­ترین ثبت آشکارسازی دارد عنوان ا...
