  2. 1. Chalcopyrite Dissolution in Sulphate-Based Leaching and Bioleaching Systems

    Author : Mohammad Khoshkhoo; Wolfgang Sand; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process Metallurgy; Processmetallurgi;

    Abstract : Chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) is the most abundant and the most economically important copper mineral. Increasing worldwide demand for copper accompanied by exhaustion of copper resources necessitate the development of new processes for treating lower-grade copper ores. READ MORE

  4. 2. Investigation of Ilmenite from Oxygen Carrier Aided Combustion: Sulfur Interactions and Recovery of Elements

    Author : Mariane Vigoureux; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Recycling; Oxygen Carrier Aided Combustion; Circulating-Fluidized Bed; Ash; Sulfate process; Sulfur; Biomass; Ilmenite; Leaching;

    Abstract : Oxygen- Carrier- Aided Combustion (OCAC) is a promising technology for the combustion of solid heterogeneous fuels such as biomass and waste in fluidized-bed (FB) units. In OCAC the conventional bed material silica sand is replaced by an oxygen carrier (OC). Replacing the bed material with an OC has many advantages. READ MORE

  5. 3. A Life Cycle Approach to Environmental Sustainability in Aggregate Production Systems

    Author : Christina Lee; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aggregates; Gravel; Sand; LCA; Production Systems; Sustainability; Life Cycle Assessment; Environmental Management; EPDs; Quarries; Tool Development; Environmental Impact; Environmental Product Declarations; Construction Products;

    Abstract : Rock materials, such as sand, gravel, and crushed rock, serve as the foundation of our society. Known collectively as aggregates, these materials are essential for building foundations, concrete, and roads, making them the second most extracted material globally after water. READ MORE

  6. 4. AIR CLASSIFICATION OF FINE AGGREGATES

    Author : Robert Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFD; Fines; Manufactured sand; Aggregates; Air classification; Concrete;

    Abstract : Aggregates are defined as particles of rock which in combination are used as a civil engineering material. It is used in bounded form in asphalt and concrete. Historically natural sand has been used as fine aggregates for concrete production in Sweden. READ MORE

  7. 5. Draw control strategy for sublevel caving mines : A holistic approach

    Author : Gurmeet Shekhar; Håkan Schunnesson; Anna Gustafson; Jesper Martinsson; Laeeque Daneshmend; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Draw control strategy; sublevel caving SLC ; loading process; draw point; caving operation; Bayesian statistics; probability models; economic models; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och berganläggningsteknik;

    Abstract : Sublevel caving is an underground mass mining method used for extracting different types of ores from the earth crust. Mines using sublevel caving (SLC) as the primary mining method are generally highly mechanized with standardized and independent unit operations. READ MORE
