Comparison of Corrosion Resistance of Cu and Cu72Zn28 Metals in Apricot Fermentation Liquid.

The production of fruit brandies is based on distilling fermented fruit juices. Distillation equipment is usually made of copper. In traditional manufacturing, it consists of a boiler (batch) distiller, a boiler (pot), a steam pipe, and a condenser, all of which are made of pure copper.

Cobalt and Tungsten Extraction from Diamond Core Drilling Crowns by Aqua Regia Leaching.

In this work, a hydrometallurgical process for the recycling of diamond core drilling crowns by means of aqua regia leaching and subsequent alkali leaching was investigated. This investigation continues a previous study in which nitric acid was used for the acid leaching phase. In the current study, higher tungsten recovery was achieved, reaching 98.

Biosynthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using L. Aerial Part and Root Extracts: Bioactivity, Biocompatibility, and Catalytic Potential.

The aim of this research was the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (SPA- and SPR-AgNPs) using the aqueous extracts of the aerial (SPA) and the root (SPR) parts of the plant L., their characterization, reaction condition optimization, and evaluation of their biological and catalytic activity. UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), scanning electron microscopy with EDS analysis (SEM/EDS), and dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis were utilized to characterize the nanoparticles, while Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to detect some functional groups of compounds present in the plant extracts and nanoparticles.
