Selective recovery of phosphorus as AlPO4 from silicon-free CFB-derived fly ash leachate
2018
The prospect of phosphorus (P) recovery from siliceous fly ash was investigated. The phosphorus content in the pristine fly ash was 1.21%. Obtaining pure phosphorus products from fly ash is very challenging because of high concentration of other elements, silicon (Si) at 17.3% being the major contaminant. The fly ash was fractionated with sieve size of 125 μm to concentrate the phosphorus in the small-size fraction, which also facilitated the removal of 78% of silica (Si) in the solid phase. The fractionated fly ash was treated with 8 M HCl in order to remove 98% of Si by aging (5 h) of leachate until precipitation of Si-gel, and a phosphorus-rich solution is obtained. Iron (Fe) is also con…
Combining conjunctive rule extraction with diffusion maps for network intrusion detection
2013
Network security and intrusion detection are important in the modern world where communication happens via information networks. Traditional signature-based intrusion detection methods cannot find previously unknown attacks. On the other hand, algorithms used for anomaly detection often have black box qualities that are difficult to understand for people who are not algorithm experts. Rule extraction methods create interpretable rule sets that act as classifiers. They have mostly been combined with already labeled data sets. This paper aims to combine unsupervised anomaly detection with rule extraction techniques to create an online anomaly detection framework. Unsupervised anomaly detectio…
Purification of recovered phosphoric acid by extracting aluminium with di-2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid
2021
AbstractThe extraction of aluminium from dilute phosphoric acid with di-2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid (DEHPA) was optimized using response surface methodology. The optimization was based on the experimental three-level central composite face-centred design (CCF) and was conducted on real-life samples. The three variables included were pH, extractant concentration and aqueous to organic phase ratio (AO). Under the optimized conditions (pH 2.5, 0.6 M DEHPA and AO ratio 1:2), extraction efficiency of 99% for aluminium in four extraction stages is achieved. The purified phosphoric acid solution can then be utilized by the fertilizing industry. Stripping tests for organic phase loaded with alumin…
Discrimination of serial auditory patterns in rats : roles of configural and elemental associations
2011
In order to test whether rats could discriminate between tone sequences, food deprived rats were given appetitive discrimination conditioning with repeated ascending or descending series of musical notes serving as conditioned stimuli (CSs). The other type of tone sequence was reinforced as the other was followed by nothing. In Experiment 1, each series of 8 tones formed a 2 s cycle. The cycle was repeated six times so that the duration of the whole sequence was 12 s. In Experiment 2, the CSs were similar to those in Experiment 1 except that they started with a random note. As a result, rats could discriminate between the stimuli when the CS started systematically with the same note. When t…
At the heart of the Board: CEO and Chair. Processes, practices and relationships
2019
This doctoral dissertation explores leadership in the dyadic relationship of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Chair of the Board, and in the process leading to CEO dismissal. The study contributes to the literature on relational leadership and the human side of corporate governance and Board work by increasing understanding of the relational practices and processes of the CEO and Chair. A theoretical model is developed of the construction of the CEO-Chair relationship. Additionally, the study makes a methodological contribution by examining researcher-practitioner collaboration during the writing of this study. A qualitative research approach was adopted in the study, with open-end…
Separation of atomic and molecular ions by ion mobility with an RF carpet
2021
Gas-filled stopping cells are used at accelerator laboratories for the thermalization of high-energy radioactive ion beams. Common challenges of many stopping cells are a high molecular background of extracted ions and limitations of extraction efficiency due to space-charge effects. At the FRS Ion Catcher at GSI, a new technique for removal of ionized molecules prior to their extraction out of the stopping cell has been developed. This technique utilizes the RF carpet for the separation of atomic ions from molecular contaminant ions through their difference in ion mobility. Results from the successful implementation and test during an experiment with a 600~MeV/u $^{124}$Xe primary beam are…
Kuparin, hopean ja palladiumin talteenotto piirilevyjätteestä
2017
Tutkielmassa käsitellään rikkihapon käyttöä sähkö- ja elektroniikkaromuun kuuluvan piirilevyjätteen liuotuksessa ja rikkihappoon liuenneiden metallien talteenottoa erilaisin menetelmin. Sähkö- ja elektroniikkaromu on pian maailman suurimmaksi kasvava jätevirta, jolla on sekä ympäristöllisiä että taloudellisia vaikutuksia, jos romun sisältämiä metalleja ei saada kierrätettyä. Elektroniikkalaitteiden piirilevyt sisältävät noin 60 % metalleja, joiden talteenottamiseksi on lähiaikoina tehty paljon tutkimusta. Piirilevyjen sisältämiä arvokkaita metalleja ovat erityisesti kulta, hopea, palladium ja platina. Rikkihappo on yleisin teollisuudessa käytetty happoliuotin, …
