摘要:
A method of treating ore particles to facilitate subsequent processing of the ore particles to recover valuable components from the ore is disclosed. The method includes exposing the ore particles to microwave energy and causing structural alteration of the ore particles. In one embodiment structural alteration is achieve without significantly altering the mineralogy, i.e., composition, of the ore. In another embodiment structural alteration is achieved with minimal change to the sizes of the ore particles. In another embodiment the method includes exposing the ore particles to short duration, high energy pulses of microwave energy.

A method of leaching a metal value from a heap of a metal-containing ore and a heap leaching operation are disclosed. The method includes establishing a downward flow of a leach liquor through a section of the heap by supplying the leach liquor onto a top surface of the section and allowing the leach liquor (containing metal values in solution) to drain from a lower part of the section. The method is characterized by supplying the leach liquor onto the top surface of the section at a flow rate that is sufficient so that the downwardly flowing leach liquor saturates the section of the heap.

A process for recovering copper from chalcopyrite is disclosed. The process includes oxidising sulphur in chalcopyrite with a solution under predetermined contact conditions and thereby releasing at least part of the copper in the chalcopyrite into the solution as copper ions. The process includes a subsequent step of reducing sulphur in a solid product from step (a) to a minus two, ie. sulphide, valence state with a solution under predetermined contact conditions. The process further includes a subsequent step of oxidising sulphur in a solid product from step (b) with a solution under predetermined contact conditions and thereby releasing at least part of the remaining copper in the solid product into the solution as copper ions. The process further includes recovering copper from one or more of the solutions from steps (a) and (c).

A tamper-evident evidence bag including a blank having a central panel and first and second planar shaped and pivotally connected side panels. The bag has an open perimeter edge and is secured along a selected extending side edge to the central panel. Following insertion of items of evidence, first and second pivotally connected side panels are folded from an open position, in which they panels are established in a substantially parallel relationship, to a closed position in which opposingly facing surfaces of are adhered against one another and in order to maintain, in tamper-evident fashion, the items placed within the bag enclosure.

A method of generating hydrogen gas is disclosed. The method includes a first step of contacting an aqueous solution of a chemical hydride and a catalyst and producing hydrogen gas and a heated hydrogen-depleted solution. The hydrogen gas is recovered and used as required, for example in a fuel cell. The heated solution is brought into direct or indirect heat exchange relationship with a metal hydride, thereby heating the metal hydride and causing desorption of hydrogen from the metal hydride and producing hydrogen gas and cooling the heated solution and producing a cooled solution. The hydrogen gas is recovered and used as required.
摘要:
A process of producing aluminium and aluminium-containing materials from a solid aluminium-containing feed material is disclosed. The process comprises leaching the aluminium-containing feed material with a leach liquor and forming an aqueous solution containing aluminium ions, extracting aluminium ions from the aqueous solution by contacting the aqueous solution with an organic reagent and loading aluminium ions onto the organic reagent and forming an aluminium complex, and recovering aluminium or an aluminium-containing material from the aluminium complex.

A torque wrench includes a housing having a first opening disposed opposite a second opening. The torque wrench also includes a ratchet wheel disposed in the housing and forming a shaft connecting the first opening and the second opening, a ratchet lever engaging the ratchet wheel to rotate the ratchet wheel in a given direction, and a hydraulically actuated piston disposed in the housing and connected to the ratchet lever to move the ratchet lever between a first position and a second position to rotate the ratchet wheel. The torque wrench further includes a removable drive shaft extending through the shaft to engage the ratchet wheel and be rotated by the ratchet wheel in the given direction and a first seal disposed at the first opening and a second seal disposed at the second opening to create respective seals between the housing and the drive shaft.
摘要:
A device for removing and disposing of animal waste having a body consisting of a first planar shaped member and a second planar shaped member arranged in parallel extending and proximate fashion to the first planar member so that the planar members define opposingly facing surfaces. First and second elongate handles extend from the planar members and a flexible bag having an open end and a closed end is fitted to the device so that the planar members define a perimeter of the open end. The first and second handles are engaged to outwardly actuate the first and second planar shaped members relative to one another and so that the open end of the bag encompasses a solid waste object setting upon a ground location. The opposingly facing surfaces of the planar shaped members are capable of grasping and elevating the solid waste object and the device is adapted to being inverted to deposit the object with the bag interior.
摘要:
A cartridge for an inkjet printing apparatus. A case of molded plastic includes a downwardly-projecting nose section. An opening in the bottom of the nose section is surrounded by an upstanding stand pipe internal to the cartridge. An insert holds a filter and includes a tube section and an upper flange. The insert is selectively removably fixed to the stand pipe to permit ready filter replacement and thereby facilitate reliable recharging of the cartridge.
