Miller, Jan D. | Dispersed oil impact on froth stability in flotation | Foam stability in flotation has been studied for more than half of the last century, however, the mechanisms responsible for the defoaming action of many presently used reagents are not completely understood. This research presents oil flotation data, which may be used in the evaluation of aqueous ... | Particles; Defoaming; Surfactants | 2001 |

Miller, Jan D. | Thermogravimetric/Mass spectrometric (TG/MS) characterization of toner particles from photocopied wastepaper and the impact of these features on flotation deinking | Flotation deinking of photocopies from office waste is known to be much more difficult than the flotation deinking of newsprint. In this regard, research has been undertaken to better understand the phenomena which account for the poor efficiency in the flotation deinking of such office waste.

Miller, Jan D. | Bismuth dissolution from smelter flue dust residues | Effective bismuth removal from flue dust residues has been accomplished for flue dusts from both zinc and copper smelters. Selective dissolution of bismuth, with respect to silver and lead, can be achieved by the proper manipulation of temperature, sulfuric acid addition and sodium chloride addition... | Technique; Distribution; Chloride | 1976 |

Chandran, Ravi | Near threshold fatigue crack growth behaviour of a high strength steel: the effect of prior austenitic grain size | Near threshold fatigue crack propagation behaviour of a high strength steel under different prior austenitic grain sizes with constant tensile properties was investigated. Attention has been paid to the observation of facture modes at thresh-; old in different grain sizes. The observations indicate ... | High strength steel; Crack growth; Austenitic grain size | 1987 |

Miller, Jan D. | Role of the hydrocarbon chain in anionic flotation of calcite | The response of calcite to flotation with saturated fatty acids and alkyl sulfonates of various chain lengths is presented. The amount of collector required for flotation is shown to decrease systematically with increasing carbon content from 8 to 12-carbon atoms per molecule. This systematic flot... | Hydrocarbon chain; Calcite; pH (Chemistry); Carbon | 1967 |

Miller, Jan D. | Mercury control in the cyanidation of gold ores | The control of mercury during gold cyanidation is of particular interest to the gold mining industry. Typically, mercury(II) is released as cyano complexes during leaching and follows gold through the solution concentration and purification step (carbon adsorption and electrowinning or zinc cementat... | Gold cyanidation; solvation extraction; selective cementation | 1996 |

Miller, Jan D. | The behavior of arsenic trioxide in non-ferrous extractive metallurgical processing | Study of the acid bake-leach process has shown potential advantages for the treatment of enargite (Cu3AsS4) concentrates. Among the most important advantages of the process is the transformation of enargite to water-soluble copper sulfate and highly soluble arsenic trioxide (arsenolite). Because ars... | | 2014-01-01 |

Miller, Jan D.; Herbst, John A. | Factors affecting droplet size distributions produced in dispersed phase mixers | Droplet size distributions were determined by stabilizing in gelatin and measurement of the distributions by means of computerized image analysis. Several variables that affect droplet sizes were studied and the resulting size distributions were modeled via a population balance equation. Key paramet... | Gelatin; Phases; Agitating | 1981 |

Miller, Jan D. | Modulated Cr(III) oxidation in KOH solutions at a gold electrode: competition between disproportionation and stepwise electron transfer | The electrochemical oxidation of aqueous Cr(III) was examined using cyclic voltammetry with a polycrystalline Au electrode in KOH solutions of varying pH and Cr(III) concentration. The mechanism and kinetics for the oxidation of Cr(III) is a quasi-reversible diffusion-controlled reaction and is larg... | | 2011-01-01 |

Miller, Jan D. | Spectroscopic analysis of passivation reactions for carbonaceous matter from carlin trend ores | Abstract. Three different refractory carbonaceous gold ores from the Carlin operation in northeastern Nevada were investigated to characterize the effect of passivation treatments on the nature of the carbonaceous material. The carbonaceous material was chemically isolated from the ores and pass... | Gold; Chlorine; Cyanidation | 1990 |

Miller, Jan D. | Surface characterization and new tools for research | In the selective separation of mineral phases by flotation, surface chemistry is the principal determinant of the average contact angle for a specific mineral phase in flotation pulp. The average contact angle is, in turn, the principal determinant of the bubble-particle attachment efficiency in th... | Flotation; Minerals; Surface chemistry; Contact angle | 2007 |
