    Cadmium Powder

    Hi! I'm trying to understand why cadmium powder is inflammable and what is the relation between flammability and its moisture. I found that cadmium reacts with air : Cd + O2 -> CdO This reaction should be fast with a powder (with an high ratio surface/volume) The MSDS said there is no reaction...

    Gypsum Removal in Zinc solution

    Does someone find a Gypsum solubility chart Is it possible to remove gypse in ZnSO4 solution with cooling towers? The Ca concentration is below 450mg Ca /L.

    Gas Cyclone Efficiency

    thanks you all for your comments! I find what I need in the Perry 7th... A last question : when i'm calculating the load of solids in m3 of gas (fig. 17-40, Perry, 7th), should I consider standard m3 (60°F & 14.7 psig) or actual m3 (operating conditions)?

    Gas Cyclone Efficiency

    Does anyone know a way to calculate the number of turns made by gas stream in cyclone?

    Gas Cyclone Efficiency

    If I increase the gas flow (I keep the same % of solids and the same distribution size), I suppose than the velocity inside the cyclone will increase and the efficiency will decrease... Am I wrong? I would like to quantify this affirmation.

    Gas Cyclone Efficiency

    I'm looking for some correlations to determine cyclone efficiency with cyclone drawing & feed distribution particle sizes. I read some information about D50. Can I calculate the particule size for other than D50? I would like to be able to traced the partition curve. Thanks in advance!
