  2. Underground mine ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_mine_ventilation

    Underground mine ventilation provides a flow of air to the underground workers of a mine with sufficient volume to dilute and remove dust and noxious gases (typically NO x, SO 2, methane, CO 2 and CO) and to regulate temperature. The source of these gases are equipment that runs on diesel engines, blasting with explosives, [1] and the orebody ...

  3. Calcination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcination

    Calcination is thermal treatment of a solid chemical compound (e.g. mixed carbonate ores) whereby the compound is raised to high temperature without melting under restricted supply of ambient oxygen (i.e. gaseous O 2 fraction of air), generally for the purpose of removing impurities or volatile substances and/or to incur thermal decomposition.

  4. Carbon dioxide (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_(data_page)

    O–C–O: 180° , [3] decreasing to as low as 163° at higher temperature and/or pressure [4] Magnetic susceptibility: −0.49×10^−6 cm^3/mol Surface tension: 4.34 dyn/cm at 20 °C and equilibrium pressure Viscosity [5] of liquid at equilibrium pressure 0.0925 mPa·s at 5 °C 0.0852 mPa·s at 10 °C 0.0712 mPa·s at 20 °C 0.0625 mPa·s at ...

  5. Blast furnace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blast_furnace

    Depending on the temperature in the different parts of the furnace (warmest at the bottom) the iron is reduced in several steps. At the top, where the temperature usually is in the range between 200 °C and 700 °C, the iron oxide is partially reduced to iron(II,III) oxide, Fe 3 O 4. 3 Fe 2 O 3(s) + CO (g) → 2 Fe 3 O 4(s) + CO 2(g) [9]

  6. Thermite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermite

    For this, the temperature must be high enough to melt both reaction products, the resulting metal and the fuel oxide. Too low a temperature produces a mixture of sintered metal and slag; too high a temperature (above the boiling point of any reactant or product) leads to rapid production of gas, dispersing the burning reaction mixture ...

  7. Carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide

    At a pressure of 1 atm (0.101325 MPa), the gas deposits directly to a solid at temperatures below 194.6855(30) K [2] (−78.4645(30) °C) and the solid sublimes directly to a gas above this temperature. In its solid state, carbon dioxide is commonly called dry ice. Pressure–temperature phase diagram of carbon dioxide. Note that it is a log ...

  8. Room and pillar mining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_and_pillar_mining

    Planning for the development of room and pillar mines operates in much the same way as other mining methods, [10] and begins with establishing ownership of the mine. . Following this, the geology of the mine must be analysed, as this will determine factors like the lifespan of the mine, the production requirements, and the cost to develop and

  9. Industrial gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_gas

    The industry producing these gases is also known as industrial gas, which is seen as also encompassing the supply of equipment and technology to produce and use the gases. [1] Their production is a part of the wider chemical Industry (where industrial gases are often seen as "specialty chemicals").
