Miller, Jan D. | Air-sparged hydrocyclone (ASH) technology for cyanide recovery | An air-sparged hydrocyclone (ASH) mobile system was evaluated for continuous stripping and recovery of cyanide (the AVR process) from process water at a gold plant site. The ASH unit performed exceptionally well as an absorber. HCN was absorbed from the gas phase in a single pass with an efficiency... | Cyanide recovery; Air-sparged hydrocyclone; Gold processing; Process water | 2005 |

Miller, Jan D. | New developments in mixing, flocculation and flotation for industrial wastewater pretreatment and municipal wastewater treatment | Solid/liquid separations are commonly the first step in any wastewater treatment. Such technologies are mature and new developments are rare. However, in the last decade some significant improvements in separation techniques for industrial waste water pretreatment have been implemented. Advances in ... | Wastewater treatment; Flocculation; Flotation; Industrial wastewater pretreatment; Sludge thickening; Mixing | 2005 |

Miller, Jan D. | Significance of electrokinetic characterization for interpreting interfacial phenomena at planar, macroscopic interfaces | Streaming potential measurements provide valuable information for the validation and interpretation of interfacial phenomena that occur at flat macroscopic surfaces. Planar substrates have been extensively used for the interpretation of events, which occur at particulate surfaces; however, these fla... | Interfacial phenomena; Surface charge | 2005 |
