Mineral Processing and Metal Extraction on the Lunar Surface -- Challenges and Opportunities
Matthew G. Shaw, Matthew S. Humbert, Geoffrey A. Brooks +3
The lunar surface is extremely harsh and current mineral processing and metal extraction technologies are not adequately equipped to address this environment. In this paper we revi…
2D condensation model for the inner Solar Nebula: an enstatite-rich environment
Francesco C. Pignatale, Kurt Liffman, Sarah T. Maddison +1
Infrared observations provide the dust composition in the protoplanetary discs surface layers, but can not probe the dust chemistry in the midplane, where planet formation occurs.…
Refractory Metal Nuggets -- Formation of the First Condensates in the Solar Nebula
Kurt Liffman, Francesco C. Pignatale, Sarah Maddison +1
As gas flowed from the solar accretion disk or solar nebula onto the proto-Sun, magnetic pressure gradients in the solar magnetosphere and the inner solar nebula provided an enviro…
The effect of the regular solution model in the condensation of protoplanetary dust
Francesco C. Pignatale, Sarah T. Maddison, Vianney Taquet +2
We utilize a chemical equilibrium code in order to study the condensation process which occurs in protoplanetary discs during the formation of the first solids. The model specifica…
