easy the ball bearings are heavier so give it a shake and they will fall to the bottom and the polystyrene will go to the top or you could also use a magnet

How do you separate a mixture of beads and sand?

I think, put the mixture of small and big beads in a bowl, and small one will automatically find space at the bottom of bowl, an bigger ones remain on top.


What is finely ground polystyrene foam?

Finely ground polystyrene foam is a form of plastic waste that has been broken down into very small particles or beads. It is commonly used as a filler in various products, such as building materials and packaging, due to its lightweight and insulating properties. However, it can pose environmental risks if not properly managed because it does not biodegrade easily.


Why is a fractionating column packed with small glass beads or short rings of glass tubing?

A fractionating column is packed with small glass beads or short rings of glass tubing to provide a large surface area for vapor-liquid contact. This allows for more efficient separation of components based on their boiling points through repeated condensation and vaporization cycles. The packing helps create more theoretical stages, improving the column's ability to separate components.

How is polystyrene processed?

Polystyrene (styrofoam) is extracted from oil. Thousands of small units of styrene, called monomers, link together to form large molecules of polystyrene by a process called polymerisation. Expanded polystyrene starts as small spherical beads with a typical diameter of 0.5-1.5mm. They contain an expanding agent; a pure hydrocarbon, which does not contain any halogens and does not damage the earth's protective ozone layer. When the beads are heated with steam, the agent starts to boil, the polymer softens and the beads expand to about forty times their initial size. After a maturing period to equilibrate temperature and pressure, the pre-foamed beads, which now have a closed cellular foam structure, are placed in a mould and again reheated with steam. The mould can be designed to meet any requirements of the customer. The pre-foamed beads expand further, completely fill the mould cavity and fuse together. When moulded, nearly all the volume of the EPS foam (in fact 98%) is air. This is what makes EPS so lightweight and buoyant. ---Shawn
