Introduction. A coal dense medium separation (DMS) plant makes use of the principle of density separation to upgrade mined coal and produce metallurgical coal or power station coal. The objective of the DMS plant operation is to produce coal product within a minimum quality specification and maximum possible yield (England et al., 2002).

Dense media separation (DMS) or heavy media separation is a pre-concentration technique used to reject gangue minerals before grinding. DMS exploits the difference in specific gravity between the target and …

Critical deficiency concentrations of these micronutrient heavy metals in most crop plant species are generally in the range (in mg kg −1 DM): Cu 1.0–5.0, Fe 50–150, Mn 10–20, Mo 0.015–0.05, Ni 0.01–10 and Zn 15–20 [6, 7].Critical concentrations in soils vary with the soil test procedure used, the crop and the type of soil.

Effect of heavy metals on seeds. Nickel (Ni) is reported to be toxic to most plant species affecting amylase, protease and ribonuclease enzyme activity thus retarding seed germination and growth of many crops.[] It has been reported to affect the digestion and mobilization of food reserves like proteins and carbohydrates in germinating seeds,[3,6] …

Plant samples (Plantago lanceolata – narrow leaf plantain and Cichorium endiviae – endive) were collected in the surroundings of heavy metal emission sources and in other less contaminated areas. After digestion in a closed microwave system using HNO3, the concentrations of Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, and Zn were determined using …

2.3 Ferrous-based Media Recovery. The medium recovery of heavy media separation plant composes of two portions, the medium recovery circuit and dilute medium circuit. the float and sink slurry from the separator machine separately flow to vibrating screens, which is fitted with a sieve plate with a pore size smaller than that of the feed …

HMS cyclones are now used extensively in some coal preparation plants and iron ore concentrators. Because of the short time in operation, little information is avail¬able on the heavy media cyclone beneficiation of ores. Published data on the subject of heavy liquid cyclone concentration are limited since HLS research investigations are …

Results: Fe showed the highest metal concentration determined (<850 mg kg-1), while Cd showed the lowest metal concentration observed (<0.12 mg kg-1) in all plants. Heavy metal concentration in ...

The activities of microorganisms that promote plant growth can be also altered as a result of high metal concentrations (Wani et al., 2007). At high concentrations, some metals have strong toxic effects and are regarded as environmental pollutants (Nedelkoska and Doran, 2000, Chehregani et al., 2005). Heavy metals are …
