We let x-J denote the material flow from site i e Im to site j e Im+i and denote the aggregate flow shipped from the sites in tier M — 1 to downstream boundary tier site k e Im- The decision variables for the system are the optimal material flow allocation, and within the system and the collection fee, in the upstream boundary tier. We also define the following system parameters ...

The classification of literals into AECs leads to the discussion on aggregate interaction or flow that results among them. Let C = [c, ] denote the AECs interaction matrix for aggregate flow. Each entry of C is defined by the Boolean sum of the following equation ... 

Element 3, life cycle impact assessment, involves evaluating the significance of the life-cycle inventory. One goal is to aggregate flows with comparable effects using equivalence factors (e.g., all GHGs are converted to the common basis of kg of CO2 equivalent).

Other properties of association colloids that have been studied include calorimetric measurements of the heat of micelle formation (about 6 kcal/mol for a nonionic species, see Ref. 188) and the effect of high pressure (which decreases the aggregation number [189], but may raise the CMC [190]). Fast relaxation methods (rapid flow mixing, pressure-jump, temperature-jump) tend to reveal two relaxation times t and f2, the interpretation of which has been subject to much disagreement—see Ref. 191. A fast process of fi - 1 msec may represent the rate of addition to or dissociation from a micelle of individual monomer units, and a slow process of ti < 100 msec may represent the rate of total dissociation of a micelle (192 see also Refs. 193-195). 

The processes that occur in a typical flotation cell are schematically shown in Figure 5 and consist of agitation, particle—bubble coUision and attachment, flotation of particle—bubble aggregates, collection of aggregates in a froth layer at the top of the cell, removal of mineral-laden froth as concentrate, and flow of the nonfloating fraction as tailings slurry. 

Dispersion of a soHd or Hquid in a Hquid affects the viscosity. In many cases Newtonian flow behavior is transformed into non-Newtonian flow behavior. Shear thinning results from the abiHty of the soHd particles or Hquid droplets to come together to form network stmctures when at rest or under low shear. With increasing shear the interlinked stmcture gradually breaks down, and the resistance to flow decreases. The viscosity of a dispersed system depends on hydrodynamic interactions between particles or droplets and the Hquid, particle—particle interactions (bumping), and interparticle attractions that promote the formation of aggregates, floes, and networks. 

The hot mixes are designed by using a standard laboratory compaction procedure to develop a composition reflecting estabUshed criteria for volume percent air voids, total volume percent voids between aggregate particles, flow and stabdity, or compressive strength. Tests such as the Marshall, Unconfined Compression, Hubbard-Field, Triaxial Procedure, or the Hveem stabdometer method are used (109). 

Segregated flow Occurs when all molecules that enter together also leave together. A state of aggregation is associated with every RTD. Each aggregate of molecules reacts independently of every other aggregate thus, as an individual batch reactor.
