Abstract
Fuel oil used in power plants contain metal impurities like Vanadium. After combustion, this metal remains in boiler fuel ash in the form of oxide. In this research, extraction of Vanadium oxide from fuel ash has been investigated. Two processes were used for this purpose. A pyro- hydrometallurgy and a hydrometallurgy process. In the pyro-hydrometallurgy process, using sodium carbonate, salt roasting of the ash followed by water leaching was carried out. Vanadium was then precipitated as ammonium vanadates which on heating decomposed and vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) was obtained. In the hydrometallurgy process, the ash was dissolved in sodium hydroxide. Vanadium oxide was then recovered from solution. Effects of various parameters in each case were investigated and the optimum condition for maximum recovery was determined.

Abstract
Sponge iron (DRI) due to the high surface area, often shows a high tendency to re-oxidation and at some cases spontaneous combustion (autoignition). In this work, re-oxidation behavior and autoignition of sponge iron, produced from different types of iron ore has been investigated. Isothermal and non-isothermal re-oxidation experiments were carried out on each type of DRI and their autoignition temperature was determined. Microscopic examination and porosimetric measurements also were used to elucidate the relationship between the DRI specification and its re-oxidation behavior. The type and chemical analysis of the iron ore, used for the production of DRI, had a strong influence on the microstructure of sponge iron and, in turn, on its sensitivity to re-oxidation and autoignition.

Abstract
The effects of mechanochemical treatment of monoclinic zirconia in high energy planetary ball mill on its phase transformation were investigated. The mechanical treatment in ball mill reduces the grain size, increases microstrain, and causes phase transition to metastable nanostructured tetragonal and cubic phases. XRD and TEM results show considerable amounts of amorphous phase during ball milling. Surface area measurements by BET method over long milling times reveal that ZrO2 particles are agglomerated with an amorphous phase as a binder. The mechanical treatment increases the reactivity of zirconia in chlorine gas. Annealing of ball milled zirconia in the chlorine atmosphere produces oxygen vacancy in zirconia (ZrO2-x) and causes the amorphous phase to be crystallized and to change into cubic and tetragonal phases. The chlorine atmosphere increases the stability temperatures of cubic and tetragonal phases to 800°C and 1000°C, respectively. In this situation, the energy of grain boundary and oxygen vacancy play important roles in the stability of tetragonal and cubic phases.

Abstract
Carbothermic reduction of Molybdenite in the presence of Magnesium oxide was thermodynamically studied. The stability diagrams for MoS2-MgO and MoS2-MgO-C Systems was prepared. The reduction of MoS2 with Carbon in the presence of Magnesium oxide proceeded through the direct oxidation of MoS2 by MgO to form intermediate molybdenum oxidized Species, MoO2 and MgMoO4. The results showed that the gaseous phase is mainly composed of CO. Stability diagrams for Mo-O-C (Reduction of MoO2 with carbon) and Mo-Mg-C-S-O (Reduction of MgMoO4 with carbon) were also investigated. The results showed that the Reduction of oxidized species leads to the formation of Mo, Mo2C, MoC or MgO products.

Abstract
in this research, the kinetics of carbothermic reduction of molybdenite in the presence of sodium carbonate was studied. For this purpose, mixed powder of molybdenite, graphite, and sodium carbonate with 1:4:2 mole ratio was investigated using simultaneous thermal analysis (STA) at the heating rates of 10, 15 and 20 0C /min. The results of thermal analysis were evaluated through Friedman, Kissinger, Ozawa and Coats-Redfern methods. The activation energy of reduction reaction was determined 220 kj/mole, and it was found that the reaction was chemically controlled. To study the reaction mechanism, the mixed powder was heated to 400, 800 and 1100 0C in argon atmosphere at the heating rate of 10 0C/min. X- Ray diffraction
of the reaction products and thermodynamic analysis at these temperatures indicated that carbothermic reduction of molybdenite in the presence of sodium carbonate would advance through the formation of intermediate phases, Na2MoO4 and MoO2

Abstract
this study, MoSi2-TiB2 nanocomposites with 10 and 20 wt.% of TiB2 were synthesized by mechanical alloying through two different methods. In the first method, elemental powders of molybdenum, silicon, titanium and boron were milled together for 60 hours. In the second method, MoSi2 was made by 30-hours milling of Mo and Si. Then, commercial TiB2 was added to the matrix and milling was continued for another 30 hours. Heat treatment was carried out on the resultant specimens at 1000˚C for 60 min. The effect of mechanical alloying on grain size and lattice strain was investigated by Williamson-Hall method using XRD patterns. The mechanical properties of the samples were determined by hardness test. It was found that TiB2 added to MoSi2 increased hardness considerably. Agglomeration process was carried out on the powders to be used in thermal spray process. The morphology and microstructure of the milled powders before and after agglomeration process were studied by SEM. The sphericity and particle size distribution of agglomerated particles were evaluated using Clemex software. The results showed that the nanocomposite powder produced by the first method had a higher quality for thermal spray process due to its higher hardness compared to the second one. It also had adequate particles sphericity.

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to study the formation of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) at the interface of Al/Cu bimetal produced by compound casting of molten Al in solid copper tubes. The mechanism of the intermetallic compounds formations at the interface, the effects of molten aluminum pouring temperature and solid copper tubes preheating tempreture, were investigated on the IMCs type and thickness and Al/Cu interface microstructures were characterized by optical microscope (OM) and electron probe micro-analyzer (EPMA). Results show that the interface consists of three main layers, where Layer (I) is α-Al/Al2Cu eutectic structure, layer (II) is intermetal of Al2Cu and layer (III) constituites several intermetallic compounds such as AlCu, Al3Cu4, Al2Cu3 and Al4Cu9. Considering the components of hypereutectic melt at the interface, initially layer (II) was formed by θ phase nucleation and growth mechanism, then layer (I) was formed by Al and Cu dissolving and solidification. Finally layer (III) was formed by solid-state phase diffusion. Raising molten Al temperature and preheating solid Cu leads to increase of the intermetallic compounds thickness at interface which consequently increases the specific electrical resistance and decreases the Al/Cu bond strength. From experimental results it seems that the bond strength is affected by the thicknesses of layer II and III.

Abstract
This paper was concerned with the effect of Mg on the temperature mechanical behavior and evaluation of the microstructure. The results showed that with increasing Mg from 0 to 47 ppm, the grain size was reduced from 64 to 38 µm and the carbides volume fraction was raised from 2.2 to 4.6 vot%. Mg changed the morphology of the carbide from a coarse and continuous one to a separate one. Mg with the mechanisms of grain boundary and matrix/carbide boundary led to changing the carbide composition and also, the mechanical properties. Mg increment from 0 to 47 ppm caused the enhancement of yield strength and rupture life from 309 to 345 MPa and from 16h to 30h, respectively. Grain size and the amount of carbide were the main factors contributing to the rupture of life properties in this study. The increment of the carbide volume fraction was the main mechanism of rupture life enhancement.

Abstract
In this paper, in order to study the flow behavior and elongation of as-cast ingots of SP-700 titanium alloy, hot tensile test was done in α/β dual phase and β single phase regions using strain rate of 0.1 s-1. Results showed that the hot tensile behavior of SP-700 in the α/β dual phase region (700-900 ºC) was different from the β single phase one (950-1100 ºC) due to the nature of alpha and beta phases and their crystallographic structure. This was since the number of slip systems and deformation mechanism in HCP structure were different from those in BCC structure. Beside, the intensive variation of elongation in microstructural studies showed that the dominant mechanism of hot tensile deformation of SP-700 alloy was dynamic recovery (DRV). Thus, serration of grain boundaries and occurrence of DRV were the reasons for the increase of elongation with the rise of temperature. However, beta grains growth and occurrence of grain boundary fracture made a slight decrease in elongation in the temperature range of 1000-1100 ºC.

Abstract
In this study, using biodegradable polymers, nanofiberouse scaffolds were fabricated from the layer-by-layer electrospinning method, including two layer that poly (ε-caprolactone), polyvinylpyrrolidone deposited at first layer and poly (ε-caprolactone), polyvinyl alcohol , β-tricalcium phosphate at latter. After prepration of scaffolds, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), swelling, porosity, mechanical properties and biodegradability behavior in buffered saline phosphate solution were studied. The results confirmed the bioactivity and suitable mechanical properties of the layer-by-layer scaffold. The swelling increase with the addition of hydrophilic polymers and reache 811 ± 214 % in the layer-by-layer scaffold, which reveald a significant difference compared to pure PCL. The MTT test on the layer-by-layer scaffold, after 3, 5 and 7 days of rats bone marrow stem cells (rMSC) culture, showed the cell viability of above 80% moreover, cells morphology on the scafold indicated the optimal compatibility of cells on the scaffold.

Abstract
In the present work, hot tensile behavior of Haynes 25 Co-base alloy was investigated in the temperature range of 950-1200 ˚C and 0.1 s-1. Thermodynamic calculations showed that M23C6 and M6C carbides were stable below 1000 ˚C and above 1050 ˚C, respectively. Stress-strain curves also indicated an unusual trend of strain fracture. It was observed that with increasing temperature from 950 to 1050 ˚C, the fracture strain was decreased, while it was raised above 1050 ˚C again. Increasing the volume fraction of M6C carbide rich in Tungsten resulted in the loss of ductility. Also, microstructural evaluations showed dynamic recrystallization (DRX) grains were nucleated and growth was around carbides and the initial grains at 1150 ˚C. Occurrence of DRX led to the improvement of ductility via grain refinement mechanism, so this alloy had the highest level of ductility at 1150 ˚C

Abstract
In this study, the effect of platinum-aluminide coating parameters on surface roughness of nickel-based superalloy Rene®80 was evaluated. For this purpose, different thicknesses of Pt-layer (2, 4, 6 and 8µm) were plated on the Samples. Then diffusion aluminide coating in two types, high tempeature-low activity and low temperature-high activity was performed. The results of structural investigations by scanning electron microscope and X-Ray diffraction indicated a three-zone structure of coating in all thicknesses of platinum layer, as well as in the two methods of aluminizing. Surface roughness of coatings was measured in three steps: 1-after Pt plating, 2-after Pt diffusion, and 3-after aluminizing and final aging. The results showed that the thickness of Pt and the final thickness of the coating directly affected the surface roughness. The minimum surface roughness was created by high temperature low activity with 2µ of Pt-layer (2.6μm) and the maximum of surface roughness was obtained in low-temperature high activity with 8µ of the Pt-layer (8.8 μm).

Abstract
In this article, the effects of Pr and Nd were investigated on the microstructure and absorption/desorption characteristics of MmNi5 hydrogen storage alloy. The alloys were prepared in Vacuum induction furnace and the microstructures and phases were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Hydrogen absorption/desorption characteristics was performed on Sievert apparatus. The results showed that the microstructure of the alloys consist of matrix, second phase as a result of Al segregation, porosities and cracks. The amount of second phases and Al in this phase in Mm(Pr,Nd)Ni4.7Al0.3 is less than MmNi4.7Al0.3. Al in Mm(Pr,Nd)Ni4.7Al0.3 were more homogenized. Pressure-Composition Isotherms of hydrogen absorption/desorption at 25˚C showed that for MmNi4.7Al0.3 and Mm(Nd,Pr)Ni4.7Al0.3, absorption pressures were 14.52 and 9.90 bar, desorption pressures were 5.53 and 5.49 bar, hydrogen storage capacities were 1.37 and 1.33 wt. % and hysteresis were 0.73 and 0.58, respectively. These results are useful in industrial applications, because of inconsiderable decrease in hydrogen storage capacity and the other positive variation in absorption/desorption characteristics, especially the hysteresis and absorption pressure.
