The work is devoted to the study of the possibilities of minimizing the release of nitrogen oxides during the dissolution of silver in nitric acid solutions during refining of the gold and silver alloy. Using a rotating disk, the maximum concentration of nitric acid is determined, at which the oxidation potential of the system is insufficient for the oxidation of silver. It has been established that at a temperature of 363 K and a concentration of HNO3 = 50 g/l, the dissolution rate of silver does not exceed 0.00022∙10-5 mol/(cm2∙s), and such conditions can be considered as background for an environmentally friendly process. To initiate dissolution, hydrogen peroxide was used as an alternative oxidizing agent. As a criterion for the rational use of the oxidant and the ecological purity of the process, the excess pressure over the solution was evaluated. The influence of the initial and current composition of the solution, temperature, and conditions of oxidant supply to the reactor on the kinetics of the target process was studied. It is shown that at a silver dissolution rate of 2.7∙10-6 mol/(cm2∙s), no release of nitrogen oxides was observed.

ABSTRACTDescribed are results showing that an oscillating flow-field can induce spatially periodic composition variations in electrodeposited NiFe films. Flow-induced NiFe composition modulated alloys (CMA's) were deposited on the disk of a rotating disk electrode by oscillating the disk rotation rate during galvanostatic plating. Deposit composition and structure were investigated using potentiostatic stripping voltammetry and scanning probe microscopy. Results illustrate a linear relationship between the composition modulation wavelength and the flow oscillation period. CMA's with wavelengths less than 10 nm can be fabricated when plating with a disk rotation rate oscillation period less than 3 seconds.

Three-dimensional boundary-layer flow is well known for its abrupt and sharp transition from laminar to turbulent regime. The presented study is a first attempt to achieve the target of delaying the natural transition to turbulence. The behaviour of two different shaped and sized stationary disturbances (in the laboratory frame) on the rotating-disk boundary layer flow is investigated. These disturbances are placed at dimensionless radial location (Rf = 340) which lies within the convectively unstable zone over a rotating-disk. Mean velocity profiles were measured using constant-temperature hot-wire anemometry. By careful analysis of experimental data, the instability of these disturbance wakes and its estimated orientation within the boundary-layer were investigated.
