Electronic waste comes in many different forms such as old computers, old cell phones, broken household equipment and machinery, and much more. The main categories for electronic waste or “e-waste” are ICT and telecommunications equipment, office electronics, large and small household appliances, consumer equipment, leisure equipment, lighting, medical equipment, automatic dispensers, monitoring and control instruments, and batteries (ayubmacharia.com). From these different types of e-waste, there

Introduction The titanic was one of the supreme distinguished, British passenger liners; it was commissioned by the white star and was manufactured in Harland and Wolff shipyard, which is situated in Belfast. The manufactures of historic ship started work on the date 31st March 1909. The titanic was an iconic structure, it was the most quickest and most impressive liner created during that era. After three years passing, the titanic construction had been completed, the “deluxe streamline machine”

1. An alloy is a homogenous mixture of a metal with one or more other elements which are usually other metals. The purpose of making alloys is to alter or enhance a metal’s chemical and physical properties in order to use the alloy for a specific function. For example, alloys can be made to enhance the hardness, magnetism, tensile strength and corrosion resistance of a metal. The harder alloy can replace the use of another metal that does not have the required and ideal characteristics for a particular

in the world. One only needs to look at the volume of mineral production to support this view. The region produces nearly half of the world’s nickel and a substantial portion of the nation’s gold, silver, copper, zinc, uranium, cobalt and platinum metals. For a hundred years the federal and Provincial governments have mismanaged these non renewable mineral resources and our renewable forestry resources and in doing

From introduction Lead and zinc are heavy metals which are most commonly found at the same work place. Both these metals have unique physical and chemical properties that make them suitable for great variety of applications. Because of high persistence of lead and its use since ancient times for industrial purposes, Lead has become common environmental and occupational contaminant widely distributed throughout the world. Even though the toxic effects of lead and its compounds have been investigated

Extraction of metals The History of Metals. Metals have been used by people for many thousands of years. Gold and silver, found as native metal, were used both as jewellery and as a status symbol - nothing new there. These metals were known in the Stone Age, but gold and silver are too soft to be used as tools. The first really useful metal to be discovered was bronze. This began the Bronze Age. Bronze was used extensively for tools and weapons in Asia and Africa from 4,500 B.C. (6,500 years

Destin Brass Products Destin Brass produces three products used for water purification systems: valves, pumps and flow controllers. They are seeing high competition in the pumps market while competitors are reducing the prices on pumps. Because they do not have any design advantages to their product, they feel they need to follow the market and lower their prices as well. A meeting was held to discuss the declining profits and a proposal to change their overhead allocation method was proposed

lithosphere. It is separated from the ore found in the lithosphere. Gold's symbol is Au. Its atomic number is 79 and has an atomic mass of 196.96655 amu. Its melting point is 1064.43°C, while its boiling point is 2807.0 °C. It is a transition metal and is yellow or gold in colour. There are also many principles used in the separation of gold. One of these is boiling points in the process of smelting. In Froth floatation, the principle is the organic chemicals in the

Ferrous Metals Mostly consists of Iron. Small amounts of other metals or elements are added to give the needed properties. Ferrous Metals are magnetic and have little resistance to corrosion. Advantages • High strength to weight ratio with regard to Non-metals • Weighs more than Aluminum and Titanium Alloys • High quality and durable material • Recyclable and environmentally friendly Disadvantages • Tends to corrode by rusting • Machine ability is affected by the magnetic field • Requires more

A clothing iron, also called a flatiron or simply an iron, is a small appliance: a handheld piece of equipment with a flat, roughly triangular surface that, when heated, is used to press clothes to remove creases. It is named for the metal of which the device is commonly made, and the use of it is generally called ironing. Ironing works by loosening the ties between the long chains of molecules that exist in polymer fiber materials. With the heat and the weight of the ironing plate, the fibers are
