Dr Nafis Ahmed with Associate Professor Terry Wall (Chemical Engineering) at the University of Newcastle, Australia - 1990

About the original

DescriptionThis photo appeared in the Bulletin (University News) in 1990. The text was: "Research dollars for Chemical Engineering The Department of Chemical Engineering's efforts to capture more research dollars seem to have paid off handsomely. The Department reports an appreciable increase in grants from the National Energy Research Development and Demonstration (NERDDC0 and the Australian Research Council (ARC). In addition, a research contract has been finalised with the Australian Mineral Industries Research Association (AMIRA). The Department has received grants totalling more than $250,000 from the NERDDC. Associate Professor Terry Wall has been awarded $180,000 for coal combustion studies. An award of $146,000 is a continuation grant with Professor K. Diessel and Ms J. Bailey, of the Department of Geology, on the origin of unburnt combustibles from coal. Professor Wall has also received $34,000 with Mr L. Lucas to work on volatiles matter and pulverised coal ignition. Dr Nafis Ahmed and Professor Graham Jameson have received $71,000 from NERDDC to continue their on-going investigation on the dustiness characteristics of Australian coals. This is a relatively new area of research and it complements the strong bas the Department has established in coal research. The ARC has made a grant of $85,000 to Professor Jameson and Dr Ahmed for 1990 to look at the fluid dynamics of the Jameson Cell, a new flotation device developed by Professor Jameson, the principal investigator. The Department of Chemical Engineering has finalised a research contract with AMIRA worth $143,000. Professor Jameson and Dr Ahmed will investigate ways of improving the grade of mineral concentrates obtained by using the flotation process. The work is being sponsored by a number of mining companies and will include actual in-plant evaluation and testing in their operating plants."
