Effect of Mineralogy on the Application of Sensor-based Sorting Techniques Year Two

Comminution, the process of crushing and grinding ore to liberate minerals, is the most energy intensive part of the processing flowsheet and accounts for upwards of 75% of the overall energy consumption of the processing plant. Ideally we would only crush and grind those rocks that contain economically extractable amounts of minerals. MineSense has developed sensors that can detect the level of minerals in rocks and, in particular, can detect very low levels with high accuracy. This proposal is to use MineSense’s sensing technology to pre-concentrate low grade copper ores. Based on test results, the correlation between the copper value and the sensor signals will be evaluated. An evaluation method will be proposed on the limit of the specific sorting technology. This information is critical both for MineSense to commercialize its products and for industry to accept the product.

Evaluation of the synergistic effect of surface grafted peptides promoting stem cell osteoblastic differentiation

This research project aims to mimic the extracellular matrix by decorating the surface of a biomaterial with molecules that can interact with cells. This interaction causes changes within cells depending on the cell type and the type of molecules involved. We will evaluate the effect of four molecules/peptides distributed in different combinations on the surface of a material to choose the combination that has a remarkable synergistic effect in inducing stem cell differentiation toward bone cells. This will lead to understanding the mechanisms that regulate the interaction between cells and the microenvironment, thus developing new biomaterials that can be used in tissue engineering for bone tissue regeneration.
