Plasma arc treatment is a high energy technology able to treat a range of scheduled wastes. In plasma arc treatment a thermal field is created by directing an electric current through a low pressure gas stream. Plasma arc fields can reach 5 000 to 15 000°F. 2, record 1, English, - plasma%20arc%20treatment

Le procédé de traitement des écumes au plasma représente la première solution valable pour le traitement des écumes non contaminées. [...] Aucune addition de sel n’ est requise, simplifiant grandement la réutilisation des résidus d’oxyde qui peuvent alors servir de matières premières pour la fabrication de produits commerciaux. [...] la récupération d’aluminium par plasma est supérieure en raison du plus bas taux d’oxydation et de la plus petite quantité d’aluminium métallique laissée dans les résidus du procédé. [...] Le principe de base du procédé au plasma consiste à limiter la quantité du gaz oxydant entrant en contact avec l'écume, seulement 2% de l'aluminium étant oxydé dans le four. 1, record 1, French, - proc%C3%A9d%C3%A9%20de%20traitement%20des%20%C3%A9cumes%20au%20plasma

L’intérêt du procédé au plasma est d’offrir une énergie très élevée et extrêmement concentrée, utilisable pour des opérations de découpage, de soudage, d’usinage, de fusion-projection de matériaux réfractaires ainsi que de vaporisation et de synthèse de matériaux. C’est un procédé peu polluant et souple d’emploi (pour éteindre le plasma, il suffit de couper le courant). 3, record 1, French, - proc%C3%A9d%C3%A9%20de%20traitement%20des%20%C3%A9cumes%20au%20plasma

A method of processing refractory sulfide ore. 3, record 3, English, - pressure%20oxidation
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
As the richer ores of gold (and other metals) are depleted, it is necessary for mining companies to focus on low-grade refractory gold-bearing ores in which the gold is encapsulated in the crystal structure of a sulphide matrix (typically pyrite). These ores cannot be broken down by cyanidation without an oxidative pre-treatment such as nitric acid oxidation, roasting, pressure oxidation or biological oxidation using microorganisms. 4, record 3, English, - pressure%20oxidation

Traitement en autoclave. La majeure partie du minerai de la propriété Goldstrike est «réfractaire» et contient de l'or enfermé dans des minéraux sulfurés. La présence de sulfure diminue l'efficacité de la lixiviation au cyanure et réduit considérablement la récupération d’or à partir de ces minerais. Pour améliorer la récupération, le minerai réfractaire est soumis à un traitement supplémentaire entre les circuits de broyage et de lixiviation, soit l'oxydation sous pression(«traitement en autoclave»), afin d’oxyder les minéraux sulfurés. Cette méthode améliore le taux de récupération d’or, qui passe d’environ 30 % avant l'oxydation à plus de 90 % après celle-ci. 1, record 3, French, - oxydation%20sous%20pression

Les taux de phosphorylation du glycérol et d’oxydation du glycérol-3-phosphate sont moins rapides chez les rats consommant de l'éthanol que chez les rats témoins, ce qui indique une diminution de l'activité de la glycérol kinase et de la glycérol-3-phosphate déshydrogénase, donc, une utilisation plus lente du glycérol. Le taux d’utilisation du glycérol est fonction de la dose de glycérol et de la concentration d’oxygène. 1, record 4, French, - glyc%C3%A9rol%2Dkinase

les découpleurs agissent en dissociant l'oxydation de la phosphorylation dans la chaîne respiratoire. La respiration n’ est plus alors contrôlée, car la concentration de l'ADP ou du Pi ne limite plus le taux de la respiration. Le découpleur le plus fréquemment utilisé est le 2, 4-dinitrophénol(DNP). D'autres composés agissent de la même manière : le dinitrocrésol, le pentadichlorophénol, la bishydroxy coumarine(dicumarol) et le CCCP(m-chlorocarbony/cyanure phenylhydrazone). 3, record 6, French, - agent%20d%C3%A9couplant
