A model of a late 19th-century Canadian seal used to certify the quality of assayed gold. A metallurgical assay is a compositional analysis of an ore, metal, or alloy, usually performed in order to test for purity or quality. Some assay methods are suitable for raw materials; others are more appropriate for finished goods.
In industrial process, the control of the quality of process water can be critical to the quality of the end product. Water is often used as a carrier of reagents and the loss of reagent to product must be continuously monitored to ensure that correct replacement rate. Parameters measured relate specifically to the process in use and to any of ...
The steam reaching the turbines need to be ultra-pure and hence needs to be monitored for its quality. A well designed Steam and Water Analysis system (SWAS) can help in monitoring the critical parameters in the steam. These parameters include pH, conductivity, silica, sodium, dissolved oxygen, phosphate and chlorides. A well designed SWAS must ...
Quality control begins with sample collection and ends with the reporting of data. [4] AQC is achieved through laboratory control of analytical performance. Initial control of the complete system can be achieved through specification of laboratory services, instrumentation, glassware, reagents, solvents, and gases.
Dissolved oxygen (D.O.) is widely used in water quality studies and routine operation of water reclamation facilities to analyze its level of oxygen saturation. In the test, an excess of manganese(II) salt, iodide (I − ) and hydroxide (OH − ) ions are added to a water sample causing a white precipitate of Mn(OH) 2 to form.
A rosette sampler is used for collecting water samples in deep water, such as the Great Lakes or oceans, for water quality testing.. Water quality refers to the chemical, physical, and biological characteristics of water based on the standards of its usage.
Retention time is commonly measured in hours for precious metals recovery. A sequence of leach tanks is referred to as a leach "train", and retention time is measured considering the total volume of the leach train. The desired retention time is determined during the testing phase, and the system is then designed to achieve this.
There are four important components or steps to developing a geometallurgical program,: [1] the geologically informed selection of a number of ore samples; laboratory-scale test work to determine the ore's response to mineral processing unit operations; the distribution of these parameters throughout the orebody using an accepted geostatistical ...
