In this study aluminium dross, an industrial waste product from the aluminum casting industry which contains mostly aluminum, aluminium oxide, and volatile gases such as ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4) and hydrogen (H2). In this study it is used as an admixture in cement paste to observe its effects on the porosity and bulk density of the material. The parameters used in the study include; the effects when different quantities of aluminium dross are added to portland cement (portland cement:aluminium dross by weight; 1: 0.05, 1: 0.10, and 1: 0.20) and the effect of different sized particles of aluminium dross (average diameter of aluminium dross particles; <45, 60, and 90 μm) on porosity and bulk density of cement paste. According to the study, as the amount of aluminium dross content in cement paste increases, the area fraction of porosity in the cement paste increases; yet the bulk density of cement paste decreases. In addition, when the particle size of aluminium dross decreases both of the pores size in the cement paste and bulk density of cement paste decrease.

The necessity of determining the bulk density of the coal charge for calculating the operation of coke ovens is argued, since this indicator affects the physicochemical properties of coke and the productivity of coke ovens. The diagram of the apparatus is provided and the method for determining the bulk density of the coal charge is presented. Each value obtained is the average of five parallel determinations. There has been presented the study of the dependence of the bulk density on moisture content for two research coal blends of different grades, compiled with the participation of domestic and imported grades of coal. For charge No. 1, it was concluded that the bulk density of the coal charge significantly depends on its working moisture. The minimum bulk density (798 kg/m3 ) is achieved at a working moisture of about 7 %. With a decrease in the value of the working moisture to 4 % or its growth to 12 %, the value of the bulk density of the coal charge increases to 820 and 871 kg/m3 , respectively. The minimum value of the bulk density of charge No. 2 (779 kg/m3 ) is noted at a working moisture of 7-8%. With a decrease in the value of the working moisture to 4.5 % or its increase to 12 %, the value of the bulk density of the coal charge increases to 845 and 892 kg/m3 , respectively. Based on the generalization of the results obtained, mathematical and graphic dependencies have been developed. They describe the effect of an increase in the moisture content of coal charges on the content of a class less than 0.5 mm in them, as well as the values of the average diameter of coal grains and bulk density. It was found that coal charges are characterized by a minimum bulk density at a moisture content of 7.2 %. With an increase in the moisture content of coal charges to 12 %, there is a sharp decrease in the content of the class less than 0.5 mm. This is due to the pelletization of small coal grains, which is reflected in an increase in their average diameter. Keywords: coal charge, bulk density, moisture content, particle size distribution, mathematical relationships. Corresponding author N.A. Desna, e-mail: [email protected]

Abstract The feasibility of industrial waste fly ash as an alternative fluxing agent for silica in carbothermal reduction of medium-low-grade phosphate ore was studied in this paper. With a series of single-factor experiments, the reduction rate of phosphate rock under different reaction temperature, reaction time, particle size, carbon excess coefficient, and silicon–calcium molar ratio was investigated with silica and fly ash as fluxing agents. Higher reduction rates were obtained with fly ash fluxing instead of silica. The optimal conditions were derived as: reaction temperature 1,300°C, reaction time 75 min, particle size 48–75 µm, carbon excess coefficient 1.2, and silicon–calcium molar ratio 1.2. The optimized process condition was verified with other two different phosphate rocks and it was proved universally. The apparent kinetics analyses demonstrated that the activation energy of fly ash fluxing is reduced by 31.57 kJ/mol as compared with that of silica. The mechanism of better fluxing effect by fly ash may be ascribed to the fact that the products formed within fly ash increase the amount of liquid phase in the reaction system and promote reduction reaction. Preliminary feasibility about the recycling of industrial waste fly ash in thermal phosphoric acid industry was elucidated in the paper.

Calcium carbonate nanoparticles (nano-CaCO3) filled powdered styrene-butadiene rubber (P(SBR/CaCO3) was prepared by adding nano-CaCO3 particles, encapsulant and coagulant to styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) latex by coacervation, and the particle size distribution, structure were studied. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to investigate the (P(SBR/CaCO3) particle structure, and a powdering model was proposed to describe the powdering process. The process includes: (i) the latex particles associated with the dispersed nano-CaCO3 particles (adsorption process) to form “new particles” and (ii) the formation of P(SBR/CaCO3) by coagulating “new particles”. The SEM results also shown that the nano-CaCO3 and rubber matrix have formed a macroscopic homogenization in the (P(SBR/CaCO3) particles and nano-CaCO3 dispersed uniformly in the rubber matrix with an average diameter of approximately 50 nm.
