Cementation in extractive Metallurgy is a process to separate the desired metal by adding a more reactive metal.

It can also be a process by which one substance is caused to penetrate and change the character of another by the action of heat below the melting points of the substances eg.process of C addition to iron as u said.

The same cementation is also a process of corrosion prevention by chromising..which may act as a paint base

Can biodiesel help mitigate global warming?

Yes, biodiesel and any biofuel is produced from vegetation that has recently absorbed carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as it grew. When we turn it into biodiesel and that is burnt, it releases that same carbon dioxide. So it is not adding CO2 to the atmosphere. It is carbon neutral.Fossil fuels, on the other hand, when burnt, release carbon that had been hidden underground safely for millions of years, thus adding to the amount of greenhouses gases.


Is course sandstone impermeable?

That depends on how well cemented the sandstone is. If the cementation is very poor then the permeability rate is good to excellent. If the cementation is very good, then the permeability rate is poor. Cementation fills in the pore spaces between the grains. The cementation may be calcium or silica.

What does it mean to say that algae fuel is carbon neutral?

Carbon neutral means that algae fuel does not affect the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Algae takes in carbon dioxide as it grows, then, when the fuel is burnt, this same carbon dioxide is released. No increase, just exactly the same amount. This is why biofuel is so much better than fossil fuel which releases carbon that had been hidden underground for millions of years, so adding to the levels in the atmosphere.


How are biofuels not carbon neutral?

Biofuels are carbon neutral.Bio fuels are considered carbon neutral because they give off the same amount of carbon when burned that they absorb while growing. So, unlike fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), they don't pollute the environment by adding extra CO2 to the atmosphere.


The process by which dissolved minerals crystallize and glue particles of sediment together into one mass?

The particles in the sediments are cemented as pressure squeezes out water. The dissolved minerals in the water, usually silica or calcite, then become solid (crystallize), tying the particles together.
