Silver was produced at 4 silver mines and as a byproduct or coproduct from 33 domestic base- and precious-metal operations.
Abstract Fruit industrial wastes such as persimmon seed, peel, and calyx were used to synthesize silver nanoparticles ... Therefore, fruit industrial waste such as persimmon byproducts could be used to derive AgNPs and could be incorporated into biodegradable alginate thin films, with numerous applications including food packaging.
Most of the silver produced today is a byproduct of mining copper, lead, and zinc. The silver occurs within the ores of these metals in one of two ways: 1) substituting for one of the metal ions within the ore mineral's atomic structure; or, 2) occurring as an inclusion …

In this study, we made an effort to use blueberry leaves extract as a reducing and a capping agent to biosynthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The successful formation of AgNPs was confirmed with UV–visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. …
Production from primary silver mines was almost flat year-on-year, rising by just 0.1 percent to 228.2 Moz. Peru suffered the most significant decline at -8.5 Moz due to mine suspensions, falling grades at several major mines, and disruption due to social unrest. Mexico's production, however, grew by 3.1 Moz, Argentina's by 3.0 Moz, and ...
A major objective of this review of disinfectant chemistry is the identification of likely by-products that might be formed through the use of specific disinfectants. The review is part of a comprehensive study of the possible health effects of contaminants in drinking water. The prediction of possible products, which is attempted herein, is intended to be a guide …
Researchers have discovered that incorporating a complementary disinfection method called copper-silver ionization (CSI) can reduce disinfection byproducts and cell toxicity in chlorinated swimming pool water. Swimming in indoor or outdoor pools is a healthy form of exercise and recreation for many people. However, …
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are increasingly used in various fields, including medical, food, health care, consumer, and industrial purposes, due to their unique physical and chemical properties. ... In addition, during the synthesis process, too many toxic and hazardous byproducts are excised out.
While it is considered a promising adsorbent for radioiodine capture in spent nuclear fuel reprocessing off-gas, silver functionalized silica aerogel (Ag0-aerogel) experiences a capacity loss when exposed to other off-gas components (O2, H2O, NO, and NO2) through a process known as aging. Ag2S and Ag2SO4 were identified as major …
Coproducts and Byproducts. Livestock co-products or Animal co-products are materials that are obtained from animals during the manufacturing process; co-products are expected or desired to be produced during processing and the steps to achieving the co-products are similar to that of the final product; whereas livestock byproducts refer …
