Rheology of Paste in Metal Mines


Book Description

This book investigates the rheology of paste in metal mines, which is beneficial for cemented paste backfill (CPB) technology. This book establishes a theory frame of paste rheology, including measurement of the rheological properties of paste, rheological behavior of full tailings in deep thickening, rheological behavior of paste in the mixing process, rheological behavior of paste in pipeline transportation, and rheological behavior of filling body. It aims to promote the development of paste theory, the innovation of CPB technology, and the research and development of CPB equipment to accelerate the construction of green mines based on CPB. This book is intended for researchers, designers, and engineering technicians. This book can also be a textbook for postgraduate students on mining engineering and other related subjects.

Cemented Paste Backfill


Book Description

In view of the demand for the research on the transport resistance characteristics and mechanical properties of CPB under the influence of temperature effect, the book comprehensively describes the studies on rheological and mechanical properties of CPB materials used in underground metal mines. This book covers a wide range of topics, including a new definition of CPB, past participation and flow-induced corrosion of pipeline under the constant temperature condition, multiphysics processes in CPB and the associated consolidation process, the variation of rheological parameters and transport resistance, prediction model for rheological properties, mechanical behavior and properties of CPB and fiber-reinforced CPB, and control technology to reduce the adverse effect of temperature. Therefore, an academic framework for the transport resistance characteristics and mechanical properties under the temperature effect was established in this book. - Investigates rheological properties and multiphysics processes in CPB materials around the world - Looks into systematic studies on pipe transport and mechanical properties of CPB under temperature effects - Focuses mainly on the effect of temperature on paste transport and mechanical properties under the temperature effect, which provides a theoretical basis for safe and efficient filling operation and associated future research in this field - Offer in-depth insights into the evolution of the rheological and mechanical properties of CPB under the effect of temperatures













Mine Planning and Equipment Selection


Book Description

This edited volume includes all papers presented at the 22nd International Conference on Mine Planning and Equipment Selection (MPES), Dresden, Germany, 2013. Mineral Resources are needed for almost all processes of modern life, whilst the mining industry is facing strict requirements regarding efficiency and sustainability. The research papers in this volume deal with the latest developments and research results in the fields of mining, machinery, automatization and environment protection.




Paste Tailings Management


Book Description

This book provides an overview of paste tailings disposal at mine sites. It deals comprehensively with the characterization of sulphide-rich tailings, geotechnical and microstructural behaviour, surface tailings disposal applications, underground paste backfilling, and case studies. The authors place emphasis on the characterization, monitoring, disposal and treatment, as well as environmental considerations of problematic sulphidic tailings. The framework is supported by worldwide case studies.




The Rheology Handbook


Book Description

Already in its 5th edition, this standard work describes the principles of rheology clearly, vividly and in practical terms. The book includes the rheology of additives in waterborne dispersions and surfactant systems. Not only it is a great reference book, it can also serve as a textbook for studying the theory behind the methods. The practical use of rheology is presented in the areas quality control, production and application, chemical and mechanical engineering, materials science and industrial research and development. After reading this book, the reader should be able to perform tests with rotational and oscillatory rheometers and interpret the results correctly.




Minefill 2020-2021


Book Description

The series of International Symposiums on Mining with Backfill explores both the theoretical and practical aspects of the application of mine fill, with many case studies from both underground and open-pit mines. Minefill attendees and the Proceedings book audience include mining practitioners, engineering students, operating and regulatory professionals, consultants, academics, researchers, and interested individuals and groups. The papers presented at Minefill symposiums regularly offer the novelties and most modern technical solutions in technology, equipment, and research. In that way, the papers submitted for the Minefill Symposia represent the highest quality and level in the conference domain. For the 2020-2021 edition organizers hope that the papers presented in this publication will also be received with interest by readers around the world, providing inspiration and valuable examples for industry and R&D research.
