Laboratories In addition to easy access to different IUST research laboratories, the center benefits from two laboratories equipped with research and analytical facilities for chemical analysis and mineral processing: 1. Chemical Analysis Laboratory: This laboratory equipped with a number of analytical instruments including UV-vis Spectrophotometer, Flame-photometer, Cement Calorimeter, Different Furnaces, … provides both wet and instrumental analytical services to both academic and industrial research projects. The laboratory offers not only all analytical services related to usual materials of cement industry, but also non-routine chemical analyses. 2. Mineral Processing Laboratory: This laboratory equipped with instruments including Laser Particle Size Analyzer, Dust Concentration Measuring Equipment, Crusher, Vibrating-disk, Ball and Jar Mills, Hydraulic Presses, … is dedicated to processing different kinds of raw materials and cement physical testing. The mission of this laboratory is not only to improve the results of different unit operations and the competitiveness of cement manufacturers, but also to provide research services in recycling of waste materials and development of new, low cost, green, inorganic binders. |
