In 2005, Katowice transformed itself into Poland's technology epicenter, showcasing the world's latest technology for four days in September. The Katowice fair broke records on many levels - from the number of exhibitors to the size of the exhibition area - and opened up visions of the future that had previously seemed unattainable to up to 20,000 visitors. From the giant mining machines that revolutionized Polish mining to the first statues for technical innovations, the fair became a symbol of Silesia's modernity and forward-looking spirit. Scientific conferences and a forum for the exchange of ideas at the highest level attracted the attention of not only businessmen, but also scientists and politicians, creating a platform for the development strategy of the mineral resources and energy industry. The year 2005 not only consolidated Silesia as a leader in technological innovation, but also showed that Polish technology is ready to be at the forefront of global trends. Katowice 2005 is not just a trade fair; it is a place where the future of Polish industry was not only presented, but also shaped. Join us for inspiration and a bold look into the future! 🌍✨ #expokatowice #mining #industry #innovation #technologies #poland #revolution

📣 TICCIH CONGRESS 2025 – KIRUNA, SWEDEN 📣 The next TICCIH Congress will be held in the mining town Kiruna in northernmost Sweden, August 25 – 30, 2025. The title of the congress is “Heritage in action: Legacies of industry in future making” and will focus on tensions and controversies surrounding industrial heritage and its relation to wider tensions in present day society. Themes will range from issues regarding sustainability, inclusion and colonialism to future generations, popular culture and AI. The congress location is Kiruna, a small town in the Swedish Arctic, with a rich industrial history. The town was officially established the year 1900 as part of large project to extract vast iron mineralization’s in the region. However, people have inhabited the region for thousands of years. Steel making based on bog-ores in the area dates back 2000 years, while mining and early modern metals production dates back to the 17th century. The mine in Kiruna is still in operation and is the largest underground Iron ore mine in the world. The town and the region is also subject to a new wave of industrialization including rare earth elements mining and the production of Co2 free steel. This development takes place in lands where industry compete with traditional land uses of indigenous people and national minorities, such as Saami reindeer herders and Tornedalians, which causes growing tensions about land use and the future. There will be several pre- and post-congress excursions offered at varying cost to choose from. Pre-congress excursions include visits to the Arctic Mine Fields and Hydroelectric Plants of Northernmost Sweden, the Center of the Green Industrial Transition in Sweden, and The Mid-Swedish Mining District Bergslagen. Post-congress excursions include visits to the Torne River Valley, an Oil-rig in Stavanger, the Röros Copper Mine, and Svalbard. The 19th TICCIH Congress in Kiruna is organized by Luleå University of Technolog, a leading university in the European Arctic, in collaboration with the TICCIH sections in Sweden and Norway, the Swedish National Heritage Board, the municipality of Kiruna and a range of leading actors within industry and civil society in the Scandinavian north.

▶ Meet Our Speaker: Douglas Pino Herrera from BRGM will be joining us at the CASPEO DAYS 2024 conference! Douglas will explain how process simulation could feed the Life Cycle Assessment of emerging technologies for the production of mineral raw materials. Obtaining the materials required for the energy transition involves implementing circular economy approaches for the transformation of mineral resources and the production of strategic and critical raw materials. Adapting and rethinking current technologies, as well as developing new processes, becomes necessary to achieve the goals set by the EU. This must be done considering not only technical and economic aspects but also potential environmental impacts. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a valuable tool for understanding these impacts and identifying environmental hotspots, which must be considered to enhance the environmental performance of the new processes. However, the data required to obtain reliable results and conclusions are very often not available for these emerging technologies. Process simulation can fill this gap by integrating numerical models for the process units lacking the necessary information. ▶ 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝘂𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗢𝗿𝗹𝗲́𝗮𝗻𝘀 (𝗟𝗼𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗮𝘂𝘅 - 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲) 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗔𝗦𝗣𝗘𝗢 𝗗𝗔𝗬𝗦 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲, a conference to leverage the power of data reconciliation, simulation, modeling, and metal accounting, "On the path towards Intelligent Mining". 🔶 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗻: 29-30 May 2024 🔶 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲: Orléans city in France 👉 𝗥𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗻𝗼𝘄: https://lnkd.in/eFHw8M8R Registration ends on May 17, 2024. #Mining #ProcessSimulation #LCA #FutureofMining #MiningIndustry

Clay swelling is a common problem encountered in drilling operations. It occurs when clay minerals in the formation absorb water from the drilling fluid, leading to an increase in volume and a reduction in permeability. This can cause a variety of problems, including wellbore instability, reduced drilling efficiency, and the potential for stuck pipe. To prevent clay swelling, inhibitors are often added to the drilling fluid. In recent years, a new technology based on the triple cation system of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium has emerged as a promising solution for clay swelling inhibition. This system works by forming a protective layer on the surface of the clay minerals, preventing water from penetrating and causing swelling. The triple cation system is typically applied to drilling fluids in the form of a liquid additive. The additive is added to the drilling fluid in small concentrations, typically less than 1% by volume. Once added, the triple cation system interacts with the clay minerals in the formation, forming a protective layer that prevents swelling. One of the benefits of this technology is that it is highly effective in a wide range of formations and drilling conditions. It has been shown to be effective in both water-based and oil-based drilling fluids, and can be used in both vertical and horizontal wells. Additionally, the triple cation system is relatively environmentally friendly, making it an attractive option for operators looking to minimize their environmental impact. Overall, the triple cation system based on nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium represents a promising new technology for clay swelling inhibition in drilling operations. Its effectiveness, versatility, and environmental friendliness make it an attractive option for operators looking to improve drilling efficiency and reduce the risk of problems associated with clay swelling. #swelling #drillingfluids #endersoncruz #polyalphas #pdvsa #triplecation #venezuela
