摘要:
Devices and methods for treating, preventing from growth, and neutralizing microorganisms in cooling fluids utilized in tire manufacturing, using high-frequency, low-energy ultrasound. In one embodiment, a method includes simultaneously exposing said cooling fluid to gas and high-frequency ultrasound. In another embodiment, a device includes a compartment for holding a reservoir of tire manufacturing cooling fluid, an ultrasound emitter configured to emit high-frequency ultrasound signals into the compartment, and a gas emitter configured to emit gas into the ultrasound field in the compartment containing the cooling fluid.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for treating heap leach stacks by applying an insoluble polyimide composition, such as polysuccinimide, to the surface of an ore stack and/or incorporating the insoluble polyimide composition throughout the ore stack. The insoluble polyimide composition is then exposed to an aqueous solution to initiate hydrolysis and produce one or more water soluble products, such as hydrolyzed polyimides, polycarboxylates, polycarboxylic acids and mixtures thereof that will permeate the ore stack at a concentration sufficient to suppress scale formation within the leach stack. The water soluble products may also act to suppress scale formation in piping and channels peripheral to the leach stack, thereby reducing maintenance expenses.
