This work investigated the beneficiation and reductive acid leaching of manganese ore from Rafi Local Government Area, Madaka, Niger state. The chemical analysis of the ore shows that it contains 48.4 % MnO (37.5 % Mn). ...

The research studied the inhibitory effect of crude cocoa pod extract and ashed cocoa pod extract on the corrosion of API5L steel in 0.5 M H2SO4 and 1.0 M H2SO4 using potentiodynamic polarization method at room temperature. ...

The mechanical behaviour, corrosion and wear characteristics of Aluminium based hybrid composites reinforced with silicon carbide (SiC) and quarry dust (QD) particles was investigated in this research. This was aimed at ...

Samples of grey cast iron of section sizes (15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm and 35 mm) were produced with the same chemical composition. A rotary furnace was used to melt the charge. The charge was heated to 15500C and ...

The effects of gating system design on the mechanical properties of cast Al-Mg-Si (6063) alloy component were studied, with varying sprue diameters of 10 mm and 12 mm respectively for both pressurized system and non-pressurized ...

The research investigated the effects of particle size on mechanical, thermal and corrosion behaviour of Quarry Dust (QD) reinforced Aluminium 6063 composites. Double stir casting process was used to produce the composites ...

The ceramic refractory was produced from Ujagba clay, Ajaokuta River Niger silica sand and Bentonite. The physical properties like coefficient of linear expansion, linear shrinkages, bulk density and porosity of the ceramic ...

The effect of froth flotation parameter (pH) on copper recovery from Anka chalcopyrite was studied with a view to determining copper grade enhancement and recovery from the ore. Chalcopyrite ore Samples were taken from ...

Investigations were carried out to study the effects of surface finish on the efficiency of inhibitors for Steels Corroding in 3 % NaCl. This study was carried out :owing to its importance in the drive towards curtailing ...

Low-carbon steels have as one of their properties good weldability as a result they are often joined--into useful structures by welding, however their safe use under different operating conditions is to a large extent ...
