Metallurgical school of the Kyiv polytechnic institute and sources of electroslag remelting

Metallurgical researches began at the Kyiv Polytechnic Institute in the first years of foundation. In 1935 Ye.O. Paton was founded department in the Electric Welding Institute and the Department of welding technology production in the KPI. A graduate of the Metallurgy Faculty of KPI V.I. Dyatlow started to research and teaching of the metallurgical characteristics of weld. His pupil B.I Medovar led the development of a new metallurgical technology - electro-slag remelting.

Process Monitoring of Filter Press in Hydrometallurgy Based on PCA

Hydrometallurgy is a popular metallurgical technology. Filter press is common but vital to the production of hydrometallurgy. Hence, the process monitoring of filter press is of great significance for hydrometallurgy. Due to data analysis and related knowledge of filter press, Principal component analysis (PCA) is applied to process monitoring of the filter press via two traditional statistics. However, modeling and test data collected from actual production suffers from outliers, missing data, inconsistent sampling period between variables. Based on these practical problems, corresponding data proceeding technique is proposed. The final application simulation illustrates the validity of the proposed method.
