The transient multiphase flow behavior in a single-strand tundish during ladle change was studied using physical modeling. The water and silicon oil were employed to simulate the liquid steel and slag. The effect of the turbulence inhibitor on the slag entrainment and the steel exposure during ladle change were evaluated and discussed. The effect of the slag carry-over on the water-oil-air flow was also analyzed. For the original tundish, the top oil phase in the impact zone was continuously dragged into the tundish bath and opened during ladle change, forming an emulsification phenomenon. By decreasing the liquid velocities in the upper part of the impact zone, the turbulence inhibitor decreased considerably the amount of entrained slag and the steel exposure during ladle change, thereby eliminating the emulsification phenomenon. Furthermore, the use of the TI-2 effectively lowered the effect of the slag carry-over on the steel cleanliness by controlling the movement of slag droplets. The results from industrial trials indicated that the application of the TI-2 reduced considerably the number of linear inclusions caused by ladle change in hot-rolled strip coils.

As a result of the model experiment, an increase in the enzymatic activity of meadow chernozem of the impact zone of Ataman Lake with the introduction of a strains mixture of metal-resistant microorganisms into the soil was established. The experiment has shown that the application of bacterial strains increases the dehydrogenase activity of contaminated soil by 51.8% compared to the variant without remediation

Chute aerators introduce a large air discharge through air supply ducts to prevent cavitation erosion on spillways. There is not much information on the microcosmic air bubble characteristics near the chute bottom. This study was focused on examining the bottom air-water flow properties by performing a series of model tests that eliminated the upper aeration and illustrated the potential for bubble variation processes on the chute bottom. In comparison with the strong air detrainment in the impact zone, the bottom air bubble frequency decreased slightly. Observations showed that range of probability of the bubble chord length tended to decrease sharply in the impact zone and by a lesser extent in the equilibrium zone. A distinct mechanism to control the bubble size distribution, depending on bubble diameter, was proposed. For bubbles larger than about 1–2 mm, the bubble size distribution followed a—5/3 power-law scaling with diameter. Using the relationship between the local dissipation rate and bubble size, the bottom dissipation rate was found to increase along the chute bottom, and the corresponding Hinze scale showed a good agreement with the observations.

The composition, structure, and spatial distribution of zoobenthos in streams of the Bukhtarma River basin are described and quantitative indicators of benthos in the lower course of the Bukhtarma River are given. The predominance of insects from the orders of mayflies, caddisflies, and freckles is characteristic of the water-courses in the Bukhtarma River basin and is associated with the presence of stony soils in the rivers, rapid flow, moderate-cold-water temperature regime, and high oxygen content in the water – factors that are most favorable for these groups of invertebrates. To assess the ecological state of surface waters in the streams under study by bioindication methods, TBI, BMWP, ASPT, and ERT biotic indices are used. The taxonomic composition of each of the studied watercourses and river sections is formed in accordance with specific environmental conditions associated with natural and anthropogenic factors. It is established that watercourses in the reference areas can be used as reference ones in accordance with the requirements of the EU Framework Water Directive, and the characteristics of invariant States of biocenoses of the lower course of the Bukhtarma River in the impact zone are also given using the criteria of the V. A. Abakumov system of ecological modulations.
