Treatment Technology Validation for Water Softening Technology

MT Hard Water of Montana Tech of the University of Montana submits Task 3: Treatment Technology Validation for Water Softening Technology as an entry into the 2012 WERC Environmental Design Contest. Currently, there are several commercially available technologies that treat water hardness. The objective of this project is to develop a strategy to evaluate and validate different water hardness treatment technologies. MT Hard Water (MTHW) has studied several technologies including: electromagnetic water treatment, ion exchange, and reverse osmosis. For validation purposes, an electromagnetic water treatment system (ScaleRID) was selected according to the WERC task description.

Siliceous Sponge Spicules of the Quadrant Formation from Montana.

A sponge spicule is a siliceous or calcareous individual or group of rays which form a framework for the sponge. Sponge spicules are very delicate and easily broken. The methods used in obtaining micro-fossils vary considerably with the type of material from which they are to be recovered and the frailness of the fossil obtained.

A Preliminary Investigation of Chromite

The purpose of this thesis was to study the effects of cryolite and a mixture of cryolite and aluminum oxide on a chromite concentrate with special reference to the ability to break the bond between the ferrous iron and chromic oxide in the chromite.
