Abstract:

Spent foundry sand (SFS) from cast iron industry mixed with loess was characterized to recycle spent foundry sand as ceramic support materials. Since SFS mostly consists of sand including binding agents and residue [1], it was used as permeable media, and loess, which has highly adsorptive and reactive properties, was used as support materials Leaching tests such as Korean Leaching Test (KLT) and TCLP (Toxicity Characteristics Leaching Procedure) showed that spent foundry sands from cast iron industry were not hazardous. Turbidity in furan sand was much higher than that in other sands, and tur

Abstract More and more foundry plants applying moulding sands with water-glass or its substitutes for obtaining the high-quality casting surface at the smallest costs, consider the possibility of implementing two-layer moulds, in which e.g. the facing sand is a sand with an organic binder (no-bake type) and the backing sand is a sand with inorganic binder. Both kinds of sands must have the same chemical reaction. The most often applied system is the moulding sand on the water-glass or geopolymer bases - as the backing sand and the moulding sand from the group of self-hardening sands with a res

Abstract:

This paper investigates the physical, chemical, and microstructural properties of two types of natural sand; alluvial sands and dune sand from the El-Oued region in the northeastern Algerian Sahara. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray Fluorescence (XRF), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDS), and granulometry analysis have been performed. The FTIR and XRD analysis prove that the alluvial sand and dune sand consist of high percentages of ?-quartz (SiO2), low amounts of calcite (CaCO3), and gypsum minerals (CaSO4;2H2O).

Abstract:

Mobilisation of in situ fine particles within oil sands reservoirs plays a critical role in permeability reduction and pore throat blockage, ultimately impairing reservoir performance and diminishing well productivity during thermal recovery operations. Variations in reservoir fluid conditions, such as changes in salinity and temperature, trigger the detachment, transport, and redeposition of fines within porous media. This study introduces a novel high-pressure high-temperature (HP-HT) sand retention testing (SRT) facility designed for evaluating formation damage by fines migration in SAGD pr

Abstract:

Falls within children’s playgrounds result in long bone and serious injuries. To lower the likelihood and severity of injury, impact attenuating surfaces (IAS) are installed within the impact area (fall zone). There are three primary IAS materials used, namely: granulated rubber products, wood fibre products, and sand. There is a deficiency with existing IAS test methods in that they do not take account of sand degradation over time. When children use the playground, sand degradation can occur when sand produces fines and smaller particles with low sphericity and angular which fill the voids b

The heavy-mineral contents of sands, together with statistical techniques such as factor analysis, can be used to delineate sediment sources, trace transport paths, and map out patterns of mixing during sediment dispersal. Variations in the degree of grain rounding can similarly be used to trace sand movements, or to obtain additional information concerning the history of the sediment particles. The techniques of studying sand mine

The micro-strength of sand mold is analyzed based on bonded-particle model (BPM) due to the reason that the strength of sand mold largely influences the final casting properties. In this study, the stress and the strength as well as the stiffness parameters of the binding bridge between the sands are obtained firstly by establishing the equivalent micro-beam model of the binding bridge between the sands. Then, the tensile strength formula of Sand Mold is derived according to the idea packing shape of particle, which is then used for discussing the relationship between the tensile strength with

Mixed sands with different fineness are prepared by mixing iron tailing sand and manufactured sand at different ratio. It is shown that properties of concrete prepared with natural sand whose fineness is 2.3 are worse than that of concreter prepared with mixed sand whose fineness is between 2.6 to 3.0, but are better than that of concrete prepared with mixed sand whose fineness is 2.3. Mixed sand whose fineness is between 2.6 to 3.0 can be used in concrete.

The assessment of the harmfulness of moulding and core sands is mainly based on investigations of compositions of gases emitted by liquid casting alloys during the mould pouring. The results of investigations of moulding sands obtained under industrial conditions are presented in this paper. A unique research stand was designed and built for this aim. It allowed us to determine emissions of gases at individual stages of casting a mass up to 50 kg. This approach enables simulation of foundry conditions.

Abstract Artificial or natural cementation introduced in sands alters the mechanical response of sand upon cyclic loading. This study uses 3D discrete element method (DEM) to evaluate the effect of cementation on the cyclic behaviour of sands. The cementation is explicitly simulated by cohesive tiny particles. The results indicate that the cementation contributes to the preservation of sand-sand contacts during the undrained cyclic loading and leads to an obvious enhancement in the liquefaction resistance of sands.

Silica sand is the main material in glass production. It can also be used for water purification. In this work, two types of silica sand used for the glass production were directly applied in the removal of Cr6+ from aqueous solutions. The chemical composition, loss-on-ignition, acid solubility and surface area of the two sands are compared. The results indicate that both sands are quite similar in chemical and mineral compositions. However, sand B has a higher organic content, a smaller crystalline grain size, a larger surface area and acid solubility. As a result, sand B shows a larger absor

Abstract:

Virtually all investigation of liquefaction has used undrained tests, and it has become common to represent the undrained strength in terms of a collapse surface or collapse stress ratio described by an effective friction angle. A difficulty with undrained tests is that they only allow observation of the interaction of elastic and plastic strain because of the imposed boundary condition (i.e., no drainage or zero volume change), precluding a proper understanding of an effective stress criterion for maximum undrained strength. Drained triaxial tests do not suffer from this shortcoming, and stre

Furan sand contains furan resin, but CO2 sand and green sand do not use resin chemicals. The turbidity of furan sand can be reduced by stabilization of furan resin in thermal process.

The supply of hydrocarbons is continuous until exhaustion of the main source below the sand. At the same time that hydrocarbons can be filling the sand, production is also allowed from the sand components. Hydrocarbons may also bypass either or both components of the cut sand if their respective capacities have been reached, so that there can be a time dependent loss from the lower sand component or the upper sand component or both, as they are filled and drained by production.

The results were validated by extracting the relative permittivity from the impedance and comparing it to literature data. After that, the method could be applied with confidence to other material systems. The influence of moisture was investigated with two types of quartz sand, and t
