Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleArsenic Adsorption on Bauxite Mineral Using Batch Equilibrium TestFares Yahay Alshaebi, Wan Zuhairi Wan Yaacob, Abdul Rahim Samsudin, Esmail AlsabahiProblem statement: Study suggested a solution to remove arsenic contamination from contaminated water. Approach: Bauxite, which is a mineral, was proposed as natural remediation material used in this study. Bauxite was collected from Johor mining company in Teluk Ramunia, Johor Bharu, Malaysia. Batch equilibrium test was performed in accordance to different initial concentrations, shaking time and different initial pH values. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 6,836 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Insights into the Pre-Concentration of Alunite from a Siliceous ore using Froth FlotationFahimeh Dehghani, Halimeh Askari-Sabzkoohi, Tathagata GhoshAlunite is the main non-bauxite source of aluminum. Due to the low Degrees Of Freedom (DOF) of alunite, froth flotation, as a pre-concentration method, is a viable alternative to increase selectivity in downstream processes. The current study was aimed at investigating the pre-concentration of alunite using micro-flotation. In the first step, an optical microscope studies were done to determine DOF … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2020 · 7,176 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPetrography and Geochemistry of Orin-Ekiti Basement Rocks, Southwestern Nigeria: Implications on BauxitizationAbel Ojo Talabi, Akin Ojo Oyinloye, Olusola Amos Olaolorun et al.The petrography and geochemistry of Orin-Ekiti Basement rocks were evaluated to determine their mineralogical and chemical composition, assessed their petrogenesis and susceptibility to the formation of bauxitic clay. Ten representative rock samples were selected for thin section petrography and bulk rock geochemical analysis using Petrographic microscope and XRF, Rh Tube, 3k Watt respectively. Field observations revealed charnockites as the dominant … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 1 Jan 2018 · 8,767 accessesView PDF Cite
