DFT model development of V2O5-TiO2 catalyst for oxidation of mercury pollutants
(North-West University (South Africa), 2019)Mercury pollution in South Africa is a growing problem due to the country’s dependency on coal combustion for generating electricity. During coal combustion, mercury can be emitted as elemental mercury (Hg0), in its oxidized ... -
Emissions of and exposure to hazardous chemical substances from selected additive manufacturing technologies
(North-West University (South-Africa), 2019)Background: Additive Manufacturing (AM) is the process of joining feedstock materials one layer at a time in order to produce objects from a three dimensional (3D) computer aided design (CAD). Powder bed fusion (PBF) and ... -
Extraction of K, AI and Ti containing compounds from ash produced by low temperature combustion
(North-West University (South Africa), 2019)South African coal samples can contain up to 30% aluminium oxide which is constituted in the mullite and insoluble aluminium silicate mineral phases. This suggests that coal ash, produced in power plants or thermal processing ... -
Failure modes in a carbon / titanium fibre metal laminate under hyper-velocity impact
(Elsevier, 2019)Titanium and carbon-fibre reinforced epoxy fibre metal laminates (FMLs) are investigated to determine their potential as a mass efficient passive armour for countering the threat of explosively formed projectiles (EFPs) ... -

Prediction of static failure in titanium based fibre metal laminates
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2017)Fibre Metal Laminates (FMLs) made of titanium and carbon-fibre reinforced epoxy have the potential to reduce the mass of structures that would otherwise be made of conventional materials. This material also exhibits good ...
