An apparatus for manipulating magnetic particles includes a latch mechanism. The latch mechanism has a pivoting part provided on a door and an engaging part provided on a main body. In the apparatus for manipulating magnetic particles, a first contact portion of a latch engages with the engaging part at a contact point in a state that the door is closed. The contact point is located more outside of the main body than the pivot axis. Accordingly, in a case where an external force is applied to the door in a direction to open the door in a state that the door is closed, a force is applied from the engaging part to the first contact portion, thereby generating a rotational force in a C direction to the pivoting part. As a result, in the state that the door is closed, it is possible to suppress the door from being opened without a manipulation by the user.

An adsorbent for a target compound can include porous carbon particles having pores with a predominant pore size less than 10 nm, and magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) nucleated on the carbon surface and within the pores of carbon particles to provide a carbon magnetic nanoparticle adsorbent (C-MNA). A method for removing target compounds with an adsorbent, a system for removing contaminants from a liquid, and a method for adsorbing target compounds from a fluid are also disclosed.

Systems and methods for processing slag produced by iron and steel making processes are disclosed. The slag is treated produce a series of valued industrial products, such as metal oxides, metal carbonates, rare-earth metals, and water glass. The systems and methods also integrate slag processing with CO.sub.2 sequestration and flue gas desulphurization. Processing slag minimizes the land use for stockpiling or landfilling wastes produced from iron and steel making processes and protects the ground water underneath. Overall, the solid and gaseous emissions of an energy-intensive and highly polluted industrial process have been largely reduced, recycled and valorized in order to achieve a near zero-emission goal.

A temperature-controlled tramp metal separation assembly includes a core rod and a magnetic set. The core rod is made of non-magnetic materials and includes a chamber, a first end with an air inlet, and a second end with an air outlet. The magnetic set includes a plurality of magnetic members and a plurality of spacers respectively disposed between the two adjacent magnetic members. The magnetic set is nested in the chamber in a way that an air path is formed therein so that an external cooling air flow can be introduced from the air inlet, and then discharged from the air outlet via the air path. Thus, the operating temperature of the tramp metal separating process can be maintained at an acceptable level, preventing the magnetic force of the magnet set from being reduced.

An internal assembly (230) for a tool (200) includes a retainer (232) that at least partially defines an axial bore (238). The retainer (232) further defines a port (246) providing a path of fluid communication from an exterior of the retainer to the bore (238). The internal assembly (230) also includes an electromagnet (250) coupled to the retainer (232). The electromagnet (250) is configured to actuate between an on state and an off state and to attract magnetic debris in a fluid when in the on state. The internal assembly (230) also includes a sleeve (260) that is configured to be positioned downstream from the retainer (232). The sleeve (260) at least partially defines the bore (238). The sleeve (260) further defines a port (262) that provides a path of fluid communication from the bore (238) to an exterior of the sleeve (260). The internal assembly (230) also includes a valve (270) configured to be positioned downstream from the port (262) in the sleeve (260).
