Upcoming Webinar: Waste Management and Beyond | Innovation Through Biological Processes

About this Event:

Microbes can be found on mining sites and biological processes have been developed over the years to improve the cost and safety of different mining operations with positive impacts on the environment. This session is for anyone who would like to learn more about genomics and innovative biological processes with concrete examples on mining sites.

PRESENTERS:

Julie Champagne, Research Project Manager, National Research Council, Energy, Mining and Environment

Nadia Mykytczuk, Associate Professor and Industrial Research Chair, Laurentian University

All about enhanced gravity separator: Falcon and Knelson Concentrator.

Separation of minerals from gangue using gravity separation technology is not recent, and humans are using it since the last 2000 years without much change in the process. Although growing technology in the previous century found various forces that could be used to extract minerals, gravity separation is not obsoleted from major mineral processing plants. For some minerals, it is even at least the primary stage for beneficiation. Inventors use a phenomenon where particles can be separated using the differential setting rates, which happened due to specific gravity posses by each particle. In the market, we can found several types of equipment to serve the mentioned purpose. For example, jigs, shaking concentrators, and flowing film concentrators. These equipment have proven capability in the industrial scale. Not only gravity separation is as comparable efficiency with other technology in mineral processing, but it also has some additional economic and environmental benefits. Gravity ...

https://www.tenova.com/fileadmin/ The miner processing plant is designed to beneficiate desirable mineral from the gangue, and for that, the ore should be crushed and ground up to the liberation size. Currently, the liberation size of most of the metal is below 200 microns. To benefit this ore, wet processing is in the heart of mineral processing, which caused lots of water content in the final products. For removal of liquid from the pulp or slimes, which is a mixture of solid particles and liquid are passed through the thickener. Thickener is the device through which liquid gets separated. Earlier, this process is done by employing a cylinder to fill with the pulp and then rest for the sedimentation. Sedimentation cause settling of particle and then the water is removed, and solids get separate. However, this was the batch process and took a considerable time. Therefore, inventors tried to operate sedimentation in a continuous process. However, the continuous process is pra...

How I applied concepts of Mineral Engineering in real life.

https://www.indianhealthyrecipes.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/dosa-recipe.jpg I t was my first class in the second year when prof Nikkam Suresh, who was the Head of the department at that time, introduced mineral engineering in a very exemplary manner, which is impossible to forget for any of his students. I found many terms that can be correlated to my life; that's why I chose to be in this field despite recent job loss and unprecedented time where I cannot go to the USA and do my enrolled MS in metallurgy. Whatever the thing is, I invested my five years in this field, and now I want to stick with that. Coming to the main topic, today, my mom gave me the job to make "Dosa." Those who don't know what Dosa is a rice pancake, originating from South India, made from a fermented batter. It is somewhat similar to a crepe in appearance. Its main ingredients are rice and black gram, ground together in a fine, smooth batter with a dash of salt.: Mom was in a hurry, so she...
