Continuous Electrokinetic Dewatering System for Use in Phosphate Mining Cleanup
Efficiently Removes Water from Phosphorus Clay to Speed the Disposal of Waste Clay Suspensions Resulting from Phosphate MiningThis device continuously dewaters phosphatic clay suspensions through electrokinetics. A typical Florida phosphate mining operation produces more than 100,000 gallons per minute of phosphatic clay, which is pumped into large...

Sensor to Detect Corrosion in Post-Tensioned Bridges and Buildings
Device Uses Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy to Inspect Structures This sensor uses electrochemical impedance spectroscopy to detect corrosion in bridges and buildings supported by post-tensioned structural tendons. The Federal Highway Administration has rated nearly one in nine U.S. bridges as structurally deficient. With the average age of the...
