About this title

Synopsis

Discover how potassium compounds vaporize at high temperatures and how this informs the recovery of potash from silicate mixtures.

This study adapts a classic vapor-pressure method to quantify how different potassium compounds release as vapors. It explains practical findings for cement-like blends, silicates, and how water vapor can boost volatilization in some mixtures.

The work walks through experimental setups, data interpretation, and how the volatility ranking helps prioritize processes. It covers what happens with greensand versus feldspar mixes, the impact of chlorides, and the role of calcium oxide and calcium chloride. It also shows how researchers deduced vapor pressures for compounds like potassium hydroxide and potassium chloride, using careful weighing and residue analysis to estimate losses.

Learn which potassium compounds volatilize most readily and at what temperatures
See how the presence of water vapor changes volatilization in silicate mixes
Understand how different raw materials, such as greensand and feldspar, compare in releasing potash
Get a sense of the practical methods used to measure vapor pressures and interpret the results

Ideal for readers of industrial chemistry and materials science who want a clear, data-driven look at potash recovery from cement-like mixtures and silicates.

Store Description

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
