某矿山尾矿库筑坝工艺优化实践

受尾矿粒度较细、粘粒含量较多的影响,某矿山尾矿库沉积滩坡度小、渗透性差,不能满足安全生产要求。为此,该矿山先后进行了添加絮凝剂筑坝、旋流器筑坝、旋流器加池填法筑坝试验研究,最终采用旋流器加池填法筑坝,沉积滩坡度、渗透系数指标良好,坝体稳定性满足安全生产要求,尾矿回水水质满足选矿厂回用要求,缩短了筑坝时间,降低了筑坝费用。

Evaluation of Fractionation of Softwood Pulp in a Cylindrical Hydrocyclone

Pulp fiber length characterization is addressed in this article. It is .suggested that the proposed separation index H（L） is a viable index to the fiber fractionation performance for evaluating hydrocyclones. Fractionation of softwood （coniferous wood） bleached chemithermomechanical pulp （BCTMP） fiber was carried out with a cylindrical hydrocyclone. Pulp fiber length characteristics in different streams were examined using the fiber quality analyzer （FQA）, and the cumulative fiber length fraction, the fiber length fraction density function and the separation index H（L） for different streams were obtained. It is found that H（L） is very useful for characterizing the fiber fractionation performance by indicating the separation capacity of hydrocyclone for individual subgroup of fibers in different streams under different operation conditions. Results of H（L） show that there exists a critical fiber length. A higher proportion of fibers longer than the critical fiber length is in the overflow stream, and a higher proportion of fibers shorter than the critical fiber length in the undertow stream. The data obtained from FQA suggest that the split ratio is the most significant parameter for fiber fractionation performance, which is the best when the split ratio is in the range between 0.14 and 0.2. The effect of feed rate on fiber fractionation performance is weak.

CFD simulation of an industrial hydrocyclone with Eulerian-Eulerian approach: A case study

In the present study, a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics simulation together with experimental field measurements was applied to optimize the performance of an industrial hydrocyclone at Sarcheshmeh copper complex. In the simulation, the Eulerian–Eulerian approach was used for solid and liquid phases, the latter being water. In this approach, nine continuous phases were considered for the solid particles with different sizes and one continuous phase for water. The continuity and momentum equations with inclusion of buoyancy and drag forces were solved by the finite volume method. The k–e RNG turbulence model was used for modeling of turbulency. There was a good agreement between the simulation results and the experimental data. After validation of the model accuracy, the effect of inlet solid percentage, pulp inlet velocity, rod inserting in the middle of the hydrocyclone and apex diameter on hydrocyclone performance was investigated. The results showed that by decreasing the inlet solid percentage and increasing the pulp inlet velocity, the efficiency of hydrocyclone increased. Decreasing the apex diameter caused an increase in the hydrocyclone efficiency.

Adomian decomposition method simulation of von Kármán swrling bioconvection nanofluid flow

The study reveals analytically on the 3-dimensional viscous time-dependent gyrotactic bioconvection in swirling nanofluid flow past from a rotating disk.It is known that the deformation of the disk is along the radial direction.In addition to that Stefan blowing is considered.The Buongiorno nanofluid model is taken care of assuming the fluid to be dilute and we find Brownian motion and thermophoresis have dominant role on nanoscale unit.The primitive mass conservation equation,radial,tangential and axial momentum,heat,nano-particle concentration and micro-organism density function are developed in a cylindrical polar coordinate system with appropriate wall(disk surface)and free stream boundary conditions.This highly nonlinear,strongly coupled system of unsteady partial differential equations is normalized with the classical von Kármán and other transformations to render the boundary value problem into an ordinary differential system.The emerging 11th order system features an extensive range of dimensionless flow parameters,i.e.,disk stretching rate,Brownian motion,thermophoresis,bioconvection Lewis number,unsteadiness parameter,ordinary Lewis number,Prandtl number,mass convective Biot number,Péclet number and Stefan blowing parameter.Solutions of the system are obtained with developed semi-analytical technique,i.e.,Adomian decomposition method.Validation of the said problem is also conducted with earlier literature computed by Runge-Kutta shooting technique.

Space-confined growth of high-quality CsBi3I10 lead-free perovskite film for near-infrared photodetectors with high sensitivity and stability

As a lead-free perovskite,CsBi3I10 has attracted significant attention because of its high thermal tolerance and long electron diffusion length.Solution-processed high-performance CsBi3I10 perovskite devices,however,are hindered by the formation of a two-dimensional structure,which results in an extremely high surface roughness and many pinholes.In this paper,we reported a space-confined growth(SCG)method using a single-layer polystyrene(PS)sphere template to obtain high-smoothness,high-crystallinity,and dense CsBi3I10 perovskite films.Compared with traditionally spin-coated CsBi3I10 photodetectors(PDs),the metal-semiconductor-metal PDs made by SCG showed a higher photocurrent,a lower dark current,and a bigger on/off ratio.In addition,the photocurrent of our unencapsulated CsBi3I10 perovskite PDs was not attenuated under long-time illumination.In addition,when the device was stored in air for 30 d,its performance also showed no degradation,demonstrating ultra-high stability.Furthermore,the synthesis was free of antisolvents,such as chlorobenzene and toluene,which is beneficial for the environmentally friendly assembly of the devices.Our strategy opens up a new way to prepare high-quality lead-free perovskite,which may be useful for applications in light-emitting diodes and solar cells.
