Neurocontroller development for nonlinear processes utilising evolutionary reinforcement learning
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2000-04)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The growth in intelligent control has primarily been a reaction to the realisation that
nonlinear control theory has been unable to provide practical solutions to present day
control challenges. ...
The adsorption characteristics of precious and base metals on four different ion-exchange resins
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2000-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Adsorption tests were conducted with four different ion-exchange resins to determine
the equilibrium adsorption of a range of precious and base metals. The adsorption
characteristics were determined ...
The bio-disposal of lignocellulose substances with activated sludge
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2001-03)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Lignocellulose is the principal form of biomass in the biosphere and therefore the predominant
renewable source in the environment. However, owing to the chemical and structural
complexity of lignocellulose ...
An experimental study of slag foaming
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2002-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Slag foaming occurs in several pyrometallurgical processes. These processes include
steelmaking in basic oxygen steelmaking furnaces and electric arc furnaces (EAF) as well
as various non-ferrous ...
