In this study, it was carried out separation process research and development to be able to produce high-grade tungsten concentrate form tungsten taken form Mongolia. In order to reduce treatment cost and increase separation efficiency the jig separation at first was applied for recovering the concentrate. Which reground would make the degree of liberation increase. Which was treated by shaking table to reject the gangue minerals from the first concentrate. Because the heavier product contains not only ferberite but also cassiterite, the product was treated by further dry magnetic separation to obtain the ferberite concentrate. Finally, the high-grade ferberite concentrate of 67.63% $WO_3$ could be obtained with recovery of 86.07% through the separation process developed in this study.

Abnormal current-voltage characteristics of an oxide semiconductor have been investigated and a novel method of detecting reducing gases utilizing self-heating mechanism of sensing layer without an additional heater has been developed. Planar-type sensors based on WO3-doped SnO2 were fabricated using a screen-printing technique. The applied voltage across the sensing layer caused heating of the sensing layer and the current abruptly varied upon exposure to a gas mostly as a result of surface reactions. A unique and fascinating aspect of the gas sensing scheme is that no additional heater is necessary for detection. The new sensing method has been applied to C2H5OH gas in this preliminary work.

As the advances of Internet infra structure and the support of console and mobile for network games, the industry of online game has been growing rapidly, and the online game traffic in the Internet has been increasing steadily. For design and simulation of game network, the analysis of online game traffic have to be preceded. Therefore a number of papers have been proposed for the purpose of analyzing the traffic data of network games and providing the models. We make and use GameNet Analyzer as a dedicated tool for game traffic measurement and analysis in this paper. We measure the traffic of FPS Quake 3, RTS Starcraft and MMORPG World of Warcraft (WoW), and analyze the packet size, packet IAT(inter-arrival time), data rate and packet rate according to the number of players and in-game behaviors. We also present the traffic models using measured traffic data. These analysis and models of game traffic can be used for effective network simulation, performance evaluation of game network and the design of online games.

Objectives: To compare the formation of dentinal defects using stainless-steel hand K-files (HFs), rotary files, reciprocating files, and Self-Adjusting File (SAF), when used for oval root canals. Materials and Methods: One hundred and forty extracted human mandibular premolar with single root and oval canal were selected for this study. Oval canals were confirmed by exposing to mesio-distal and bucco-lingual radiographs. Teeth with open apices or anatomic irregularities were excluded. All selected teeth were de-coronated perpendicular to the long axis of the tooth, leaving roots segments approximately of 16 mm in length. Twenty teeth were left unprepared (control), and the remaining 120 teeth were divided into 6 groups (n = 20) and instrumented using HF (size 40/0.02), Revo-S (RS; size 40/0.06), ProTaper NEXT (PTN; size 40/0.06), WaveOne (WO; size 40/0.09), RECIPROC (RC; size 40/0.06), and the SAF (2 mm). Roots were then sectioned 3, 6, and 9 mm from the apex, and observed under stereomicroscope, for presence of dentinal defects. "No defect" was defined as root dentin that presented with no visible microcracks or fractures. "Defect" was defined by microcracks or fractures in the root dentin. Results: The control, HF, and SAF did not exhibit any dentinal defects. In roots instrumented by RS, PTN, WO, and RC files exhibited microcracks (incomplete or complete) in 40%, 30%, 55%, and 50%, respectively. Conclusions: The motor-driven root canal instrumentation with rotary and reciprocating files may create microcracks in radicular dentine, whereas the stainless-steel hand file instrumentation, and the SAF produce minimal or less cracks.

Mn-added Barium hexaaluminates were manufactured by homogeneous precipitation method using Urea. The effects of water wash and dry temperature were analyzed by thermal weight analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. Catalysts that went through the filtration step only produced pure hexaaluminate images compared to those that went through the water wash step. During the drying process, it seems that the remaining urea helps dehydration of the precursor and affects the phase shift of gibbsite to boehmite, which is easy to convert to pure hexaaluminate. The catalyst WO200 gave the best performance in the methane combustion reaction, and NOx was not emitted in the reaction for all catalysts. Hexaaluminates were found to affect reducing the highest CO emissions.

Background: Radiation protection is crucial in various fields due to the harmful effects of radiation. Shielding is used to reduce radiation exposure, but gamma radiation poses challenges due to its high energy and penetration capabilities. Materials and Methods: This work investigates the radiation shielding properties of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) samples containing different weight fraction of tungsten carbide (WC), tungsten trioxide (WO₃), and tungsten disulfide (WS₂). Parameters such as the mass attenuation coefficient (MAC), half-value layer (HVL), mean free path (MFP), effective atomic number (Z_eff), and macroscopic effective removal cross-section for fast neutrons (Σ_R) were calculated using the Phy-X/PSD software. EpiXS simulations were conducted for MAC validation. Results and Discussion: Increasing the weight fraction of the additives resulted in higher MAC values, indicating improved radiation shielding. PVDF-xWC showed the highest percentage increase in MAC values. MFP results indicated that PVDF-0.20WC has the lowest values, suggesting superior shielding properties compared to PVDF-0.20WO₃ and PVDF-0.20WS₂. PVDF-0.20WC also exhibited the highest Z_eff values, while PVDF-0.20WS₂ showed a slightly higher increase in Z_eff at energies of 0.662 and 1.333 MeV. PVDF-0.20WC has demonstrated the highest Σ_R value, indicating effective shielding against fast neutrons, while PVDF-0.20WS₂ had the lowest Σ_R value. The Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport version 5 (MCNP5) simulations showed that PVDF-xWC attenuates gamma radiation more than pure PVDF, significantly decreasing the dose equivalent rate. Conclusion: Overall, this research provides insights into the radiation shielding properties of PVDF mixtures, with PVDF-xWC showing the most promising results.

This study analyzes trends in data curation research. A total of 1,849 scholarly records were extracted from Scopus and WoS, with 1,797 papers selected after removing duplicates. Titles, keywords, and abstracts were analyzed through keyword frequency analysis, LDA topic modeling, and network analysis. Frequent keywords like 'research' and 'information' suggest that data curation is widely applied in medical research, biomedical research, data management, and infrastructure. LDA modeling identified five main topics: improving medical data quality, enhancing big data management, managing scientific data and repositories, annotating and modeling medical data, and gene/protein database research. Network analysis showed that 'analysis' was central in global discussions, while 'gene' and 'system' were locally central. These findings highlight the importance of data curation in various research areas.

A numerical simulation of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) for NO with $NH_3$ is conducted over the $V_2O_5/TiO_2$ and $WO_3-V_2O_5/TiO_2$ catalysts. The governing $NH_3$ and NO transport equations are considered by using the time-dependent FCT (Flux-Corrected Transport) algorithm. After a validating simulation for $NH_3$ step feed and shut-off experiments is analyzed, transient behavior of $NH_3$ and NO concentration in a SCR catalyst is investigated by changing such parameters as inflow $NH_3$ concentration, temperature of the catalyst, and $NH_3$/NOx ratios.

Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) has been a promising technology to reduce the air pollution caused by nitrogen oxides (NOx) in several industries. The consumption of SCR catalysts increases every year as technology evolves, however those have a limited lifespan and usually end up in landfills after they deactivate. Currently, the most widely used catalyst for and stationary applications is V₂O₅-WO₃/TiO₂ which can contain around 50% wt V₂O₅ and 7-10% wt of WO₃. The vast uses for both vanadium and tungsten and the worldwide interest in recycling methods that allow for the extraction of metals from secondary sources represent the major motivation for this research. The extraction time, pH dependency, extraction concentration studies were carried out using Aliquat 336 in exxol D80 as the extractant. It was determined that to optimize the extraction of both metals 30min of contact time with an organic phase containing 0.5mol/L of Aliquat 336 are needed at a slightly acidic pH (~5.0). In addition, counter McCabe-Thiele studies allowed us to determine that one stage is necessary for the removal of 99% of vanadium while 2 stages are necessary for the extraction of tungsten and counter current simulations proved that the theoretical approach was correct.

1H NMR spectra of pyridine, α-, β-, and γ-picoline coordinated to the paramagnetic heteropolyanion [Ni3(PW9O34)2]12- (P2Ni3) are reported. NMR lines are assigned to [Ni3(ptl)n(PW9O34)2]12- (n=1, 2 or 3; ptl=pyridine-type ligand) on the basis of their [P2Ni3]/[ptl] dependence. The formation constants for γ-picoline complexes at 25 ℃ are K1=80, K2=610, and K3=190 L mol-1. The monopicoline complex has greater affinity for γ-picoline than P2Ni3. A degradation product, [Ni2(WO2)(PW9O34)2]12-, was also identified at low pH by measuring the NMR spectrum of pyridine coordinated to it. The isotropic NMR shifts come mainly from the contact interaction due to σ-electron delocalization.
