Patent CA-2450525-A1 (CA)
Title: Process for leaching acid-consuming ores
Inventor: BRUYNESTEYN ALBERT
IPC: C22B15/00
Filed: 2003-11-26
Abstract: A process for leaching low sulphur content ores to release metal values employs two operational steps. In the first step fine, rod-milled elemental sulphur is preconditioned with sulphur oxidizing bacteria which may include Thiobacillus, in an agitated reactor with water. Sulphur produced by this preconditioning process is added to the ore heap during a typical agglomeration process used to adhere small ore particles to the large particles, which increases the permeability of the ore heap. The sulphuric acid produced during the sulphur preconditioning process can be added to the heap during agglomeration as well as by adding some of the acid to the leach solution reservoir. This process results in a homogeneous distribution of the sulphur in the heap so that acid will be produced at the reactive mineral sites and will be consumed immediately, thus maintaining a low acid concentration and a low driving force for the acid/gangue reactions resulting in overall lower acid consumption.

Title: Apparatus and method for photocatalytic and thermocatalytic pollution control
Inventor: TABATABAIE-RAISSI ALI
IPC: B01J8/18
Filed: 1999-04-08
Abstract: A new method for design and scale-up of photocatalytic and thermocatalytic processes is disclosed. The method is based on optimizing photoprocess energetics by decoupling of the process energy efficiency from the DRE for target contaminants. The technique is applicable to both low-and high-flux photoreactor design and scale-up. The low-flux method is based on the implementation of natural biopolymeric and other low-pressure drop media support for titanium dioxide and other band-gag photocatalysts. The high-flux method is based on the implementation of multifunctional metal oxide aerogels and other media in conjunction with a novel rotating fluidized particle bed reactor.

This screw geometry defines a series of alternating upper and lower close-clearance high-pressure nip areas (78) defined by the flighting (58,60) which serves to propel an extrudable forwardly towards the outlet end (20) of the barrel (16). However, passageways (80) and kneading zones (82) are also defined between the screws (50,52), which assures full mixing, shearing and cooking of the material. The extruder device (14) is capable of producing high density sinking aquatic feeds as well as expanted, low density products merely by changing the rotational speed of the screws (50,52) together with appropriate temperature control. In another embodiment, fluid extraction extruder (138) is provide having a specialized extruder head (140) including an outer shell (144) and an inner, elongated, slotted sleeve (152).
