Metal plays a key role in development and it is the backbone for the manufacturing industry. For years, various metal have been extracted from the mineral ore found in nature, but with the time high grade ore have is getting depleted and the option at left with us is to processing low grade ore which makes recovery process expensive. In such scenario recycling metals seems a lucrative option as it helps environment by reducing the amount of scrap or waste material getting disposed into landfills. Typical source of scrap comes from the end of life products like cars, household equipment, electronic components, and waste products generated during the manufacturing process which constitutes a mixture of ferrous, nonferrous, semiconductors, plastic,…

The vision of one man, Mr. Laxman rao Kirloskar which is being respected worldwide for engineering excellence, can be traced to have its beginning of having cast the casting of a humble plough. All though the passing years, the Kirloskar group has had a long & close relationship with the foundry business with several group units specialization in the manufacture of high quality ferrous & non-ferrous casting. Kirloskar Ferrous Industries Limited was born with the unique…

1. Take Advantage of the Non ferrous scrap metal recycling services In the industries and factories, the production is done on a larger scale. During the manufacturing process, there is a lot of metal that becomes waste which is loitered in the surroundings. The non-ferrous scrap metal refers to scrap metal that includes copper, aluminum, lead, titanium, cobalt, zinc, nickel, cobalt, titanium, and cobalt. Usually, the non-ferrous metal scrap is generated from a wide range of the commercial,…

2. RESEARCH ON THE STRUCTURE OF METALS AND TYPES OF BONDING. What are metals? 24% of our planet’s mass is metal. They are used as mainly because of their properties; metals are strong, ductile, have high melting points and are excellent conductors of electricity. Other properties of metals are given below: • Can be made stronger by alloys and heat treatment. • Easily machined. • Most of them are heavy. • Susceptible to corrosion. Metals can be divided into two; Ferrous and Non-ferrous. Ferrous…

marine subsurface with ease by creating a string of data that can easily be interpreted over a large area. These magnetometers (boom-mounted) are set on the aircraft directly or even on a tow cable. Over the years they have gotten significantly better and are now able to detect smaller UXO’s. In the early years of airborne magnetics they could only reliably detect the bigger UXO’s as they were more easily identifiable due to their size and their strong magnetic density contrast. The new boomer…

These devices are constructed with a non ferrous metal that will not be a hazard near the strong magnetic field. However, there are a few instances where equipment that is not equipped for MRI has been brought into the suit accidently. For example, in July of 2001, Michael Colombini passed away due to a severe injury while undergoing an MRI at a medical center in Ney York City. Unfortunately an oxygen tank and accidently been brought into the suit and projectiled across the room and fractured…

(Kg) x velocity^2 (m/s) Energy unit is joules ( J ) Mechanical Power (see page 66 for eg) Mechanical power = fs / t = PE / t = KE / t = fv f = Force s = displacement (m) t = time (s) V = electrical potential PE= potential energy KE= Kinetic energy Materials: (chapter 1 of rochford book) Classification of materials All engineering materials are usually classified into 4 main groups; 1. Metals- In general metals have high electrical and thermal conductivities. Can be ductile and have…

Welding There are 5 main types of welding process commonly used in industrial welding. They are; Gas Metal Arc Welding, oxy acetylene, Gas Tungsten arc welding, flux core, and Shielded metal arc welding. All welding procedures are important and useful for a variety of things. Welding is the process by which two or more pieces of metal are joined or metal has material added to it to fill a hole. Welding process work by heating the base metal, or the material being on, to a liquid state. They…

Recycling the Family Clunker Automobile end-of-life dismantling and recycling is a major business. Recycle, Renew, Reuse are buzzwords used to promote the recovery and salvage of items that still have value. Auto recycling is $22 billion per year industry in the United States. The term auto recycling includes recycled auto parts for both domestic, and depending on the part, foreign buyers and using the remaining auto shell as food for both the crusher and steel mill fodder. Auto…

Percentage yield The ratio between the actual yield and theoretical yield multiplied by 100 is called the percentage yield. Percentage yield demonstrates the percentage of theoretical that was gained from the end product in a reaction. The percentage yield is calculated using this equation: Percentage Yield =(Mass of actual yield)/(Mass of theoretical yield) ×100. The mass of actual yield is the mass of the end product that was gained from the experiment. The actual yield is the amount of…
