Enhancing Gold Recovery from Nevada Double Refractory Gold Ores using a Novel Dual Bubble Generator
DownloadFall 2018
In this study, the influence of dual bubble generator on mineral flotation was investigated. A Venturi-based dual bubble generator was designed and characterized in both liquid-gas two-phase system and solid-liquid-gas three-phase flotation system. The dual bubble generator featured immediately...

The Mechanism of Floc Formation by Hydrodynamic Cavitation and Its Application on Fine Particle Flotation
DownloadFall 2018
In recent decades, hydrodynamic cavitation has been used to enhance fine particle flotation recovery in mineral engineering. Such an increase was mainly attributed to the generation of flocs/aggregates of fine particles during the hydrodynamic cavitation process. However, the mechanism of floc...

A Facile Synthesis and Application of Protein-Shelled Microbubbles as Temperature-Responsive Drug Carriers with the Aid of a Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-block-(acrylic acid) Shell
DownloadSpring 2017
In this study, a novel synthesis of proteinaceous microbubbles (MBs) was introduced in an effort to substantially lengthen the short lifetime of the sonochemically-synthesized microbubbles using surface-treated proteins. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a representative protein, was treated with...
