The conversion of waste materials in our environment into useable chemical products is a popular issue these days. Here, we report on the production of zincite powder using a very simple hydrometallurgical method. Within two hours, 92.23% of the original 10 g/L SZCB reacted at ideal leaching conditions (2.5 mol/L HCl, 80_C). The result predicted the diffusion model as rate determining step, with calculated Ea of 28.53 kJ/mol. The precipitated hydroxide was calcined to produce pure zincite powder of yield 85.2%. Analyses using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the high purity ZnO existed as a flower-like spherical aggregation and antimicrobial testing was later carried out to be reported in part B of the research. Keywords: Hydrometallurgy, Kinetics, Metallurgy, Powder Technology, X-ray, Zincite..

This work examines the thermal diffusivity properties of four different materials, ceramic, stainless steel, plastic, and glass, using the one-dimensional heat equation's Initial Boundary Value Problem (IBVP) framework. We investigate the transient thermal behaviour of these materials using numerical techniques like the Crank-Nicolson method and the explicit FTCS (Forward-Time Central-Space) method. We perform simulations and analyse heat transfer dynamics and temperature distributions using Python implementations with uniform step sizes. According to our research, there are notable differences in the thermal diffusivity performance of the materials, with stainless steel showing better conductive qualities. Furthermore, a look at the midpoint temperature profiles of the cups provides information on the thermal and temporal dynamics. A comparison of the Crank-Nicolson and FTCS approaches shows how effective the latter is in producing precise and stable solutions. The study contributes t.....
