red mud (rm), a waste tailing from alumina production, (as an important environmental problem), can be used as a strong absorbent pollutant. in this study, the modified red mud (mrm) and pillared clay (pilc) were used for the removal of arsenate from water. the modified red mud (mrm) and pilc complex were characterized using xrd, sem and xrf microanalysis. the adsorption of arsenate on modified...

The paper reports a process for synthesis of γ-alumina from kaolin. Kaolin was transformed to meta-kaolin by calcination at 800 ̊C for 2h. γ-alumina powder was synthesized through extracting alumina from metakaolin via H2SO4 and meta-kaolin reactions and consequently precipitation in ethanol, which led to form the aluminum sulfate. The precipitated aluminum sulfate was dried and calcined at 900 ̊...

Many pioneers from around the world followed this initial experience but long-term results and good methodology were lacking. Recently, a number of reports 4-6 have focused attention again on an alumina-on-alumina combination. More than 30 years after its introduction into clinical practice, this article considers the current information on the alumina-on-alumina combination from both experimen...

A new rapid, very simple and one-step sol-gel strategy for the large-scale preparation of highly porous γ-Al₂O₃ is presented. The resulting mesoporous alumina materials feature high surface areas (400 m² g-1), large pore volumes (0.8 mL g-1) and the γ-Al₂O₃ phase is obtained at low temperature (500 °C). The main advantages and drawbacks of different preparations of mesoporous alumina materials ...

Monolithic ceramics have been fabricated from coated green fibers to create fibrous microstructures. The fibrous monoliths consist of high aspect ratio polycrystalline regions (cells) of a primary phase separated by thin secondphase regions (cell boundaries) designed to improve fracture resistance. The cells are the remnants of the green fiber which consists of ceramic powder and a polymer bind...

This work aims at the characterization of clay locality Dolisie for its valorization. The mineralogical analysis was determined by following techniques (DRX, IR, ATG and ATD), chemical ICP-AES, CEC assessed Metson method. geothermal properties were granulometric soil allowed us to position in texture triangle, landings limits obtained place abacus Casagrande on workability map Bain Highy.

Thin alumina films have found applications in electronic circuits and cutting tools and have been recently explored as protective coatings against high temperature oxidation, but these studies have been relatively rare. In this study, amorphous alumina films 3.5 pm thick were produced by reactive sputtering on Co-30Cr-6Al-0.5Y coatings, using a pure aluminum target in Ar + 0 2 atmosphere. Isoth...
