Water purification: Any old iron?

A little-known chemical may provide a new way to clean water

IRON in water is normally regarded a pollutant. Luke Daly, the boss of Ferrate Treatment Technologies of Orlando, Florida, however, plans to turn that thought on its head. He intends to use a chemically unusual form of iron to clean water up, not make it dirty.

Iron is found in the part of the periodic table known as the transition metals. Like all metals, these react with other elements by giving up electrons to form positively charged ions. Transition metals, though, give up different numbers of electrons in different circumstances, and thus have ions of various charges. Usually, iron loses two or three electrons. But in ferrates, which are compounds of iron and oxygen with non-transition metals like sodium and calcium, it loses six. That makes ferrates extremely reactive, and it is this reactivity which Mr Daly hopes to exploit. …

Iron Maiden: New Album in August

THE FINAL FRONTIER WORLD TOUR BEGINS JUNE 9 IN DALLAS, TEXAS


Iron Maiden

Iron
Maiden
are set to return with their fifteenth studio album, The Final
Frontier
, out on
August 17 in the U.S. The band are offering a free mp3 download of album track “El
Dorado.” Click here to download.

The band reunited with long-time Maiden producer Kevin “Caveman” Shirley in early
2010 at Compass
Point Studios, Nassau to record the album and then moved to LA to finish the recording and
do the mixing.
Compass Point Studio is very familiar to the band, it was where they recorded the Piece
Of Mind
(’83),
Powerslave (’84) and Somewhere In Time (’86) albums.

Singer Bruce Dickinson comments, “The studio had the same vibe and it was EXACTLY as it had been in 1983,
NOTHING had
changed! Even down to the broken shutter in the corner…same carpet….everything… It
was really quite spooky. But
we felt
very relaxed in such a familiar and well-trodden environment and I think this shows in the
playing and the
atmosphere of the album.”

The full tracklisting for the album:

1. Satellite 15….The Final Frontier
2. El Dorado
3. Mother Of Mercy

4. Coming Home
5. The Alchemist
6. Isle Of Avalon
7. Starblind
8. The Talisman
9. The Man Who Would Be King

10. When The Wild Wind Blows

The Final Frontier World Tour begins in Dallas on June 9th with 25 shows in major cities
across the USA and Canada,
playing to an expected 350,000 fans or more. Following this the tour will ship over to
Europe starting in Dublin on
July 30 and playing a few selected major festivals and stadiums, finishing in Valencia,
Spain, on Aug 21 and including
a concert in Transylvania.
