  2. Pyrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrite

    A newer commercial use for pyrite is as the cathode material in Energizer brand non-rechargeable lithium metal batteries. [20] Pyrite is a semiconductor material with a band gap of 0.95 eV. [21] Pure pyrite is naturally n-type, in both crystal and thin-film forms, potentially due to sulfur vacancies in the pyrite crystal structure acting as n ...

    Communication of the science of how water systems work is an important aspect when creating a management plan to conserve that system and is often used for ensuring the right management plan to be put into action. [11] The conservation of water is extremely important in order to preserve wildlife habitats.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrrhotite

    Also, the mineral pyrite is both the most common and most abundant sulfide mineral in the Earth's crust. [6] If rocks containing pyrite undergo metamorphism, there is a gradual release of volatile components like water and sulfur from pyrite. [6] The loss of sulfur causes pyrite to recrystallize into pyrrhotite. [6]

  8. Economic instruments for water policies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_Instruments_for...

    Charges for the use of water are among the best known economic instruments for water policies. They can contribute to the transmission of market signals which are coherent with policy aims, if their design is transparent and revenues are earmarked to uses connected to the service or to the mitigation of impacts from water uses.

  9. Coal slurry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coal_slurry

    Ideally, coal slurry consists only of crushed coal and water, which can be efficiently separated. In practice, the separation is significantly costly due to the large amounts of water needed and wastewater generated by the process. [8] Furthermore, the slurry consists also of very fine coal dust that results in a waste called blackwater.
