Ancillaries

One is obliged to conclude that this method, like those which derive the cumulative surface area from pore size calculations, can be regarded as no more than ancillary to the BET or Point B methods. The few cases where reasonable agreement with the BET area is obtained are probably to be explained by compensation of opposing effects. 

To an experienced operator trained in the handling of industrial chemicals, the dimers present Httle cause for concern in handling or storage. The finished polymer coating presents even less of a health problem contact with the reactive monomer is unlikely. In the ancillary operations, such as cleaning or adhesion promotion, the operator must observe suitable precautions. Before using the process chemicals, operators must read and understand the current Material Safety Data Sheets, which are available from the manufacturers. 

Economic Considerations. The principal economic consideration is, of course, total installed system cost, including the initial cost of the flow primary, flow secondary, and related ancillary equipment as well as material and labor required for installation. Other typical considerations are operating costs and the requirements for scheduled maintenance. An economic factor of increasing importance is the cost of disposal at the end of normal flow meter service life. This may involve meter decontamination if hazardous fluids have been measured. 

MIDREX Process. The primary components of a MID REX process plant include the shaft furnace, reformer, and heat recuperator. These components are supported by ancillary systems for handling iron ore, gas, water, and direct reduced iron. A flow sheet is shown in Figure 1. 

Effective specification control often can be estabUshed other than through requirements placed on the end use material, ie, the specification may beat on the taw materials, the process used to produce the material, or ancillary materials used in its processing. Related but supplementary techniques ate approved vendor Hsts, accredited testing laboratories, and pteptoduction acceptance tests. 

In addition to these principal alloying elements, which provide soHd solution strengthening and/or precipitation strengthening, wrought alloys may contain small amounts of titanium and boron [7440-42-8J, B, for control of ingot grain size, and ancillary additions of chromium, manganese, and zirconium to provide dispersoids. AH commercial alloys also contain iron and siUcon. 

Quaternary Salts. Herbicides paraquat (20) and diquat (59) are the quaternary salts of 4,4 -bipyridine (19) and 2,2 -bipyridine with methyl chloride and 1,2-dibromoethane, respectively. Higher alkylpyridinium salts are used in the textile industry as dye ancillaries and spin bath additives. The higher alkylpyridinium salt, hexadecylpytidinium chloride [123-03-5] (67) (cetylpyridinium chloride) is a topical antiseptic. Amprolium (62), a quaternary salt of a-picohne (2), is a coccidiostat. Bisaryl salts of butylpyridinium bromide (or its lower 1-alkyl homologues) with aluminum chloride have been used as battery electrolytes (84), in aluminum electroplating baths (85), as Friedel-Crafts catalysts (86), and for the formylation of toluene by carbon monoxide (87) (see QuaternaryAA ONiUM compounds). 

Heteroleptic complexes of uranium can be stabilized by the presence of the ancillary ligands however, the chemistry is dominated by methyl and benzyl ligands. Examples of these materials include UR4(dmpe) (R = alkyl, benzyl) and U(benzyl)4MgCl2. The former compounds coordinate "soft" chelating phosphine ligands, a rarity for the hard U(IV) atom. 

Another class of heteroleptic alkyl complexes contains TT-donating ancillary ligands such as RU[N(Si(CH2)3)2]3 (R = 4)- The hydride... 

FIG. 22-55 Typical capital-cost schematic for membrane equipment showing trade-off for membrane area and mechanical equipment. Lines shown are from families for parallel hues showing hmiting costs for membrane and for ancillary equipment. Abscissa Relative membrane area installed in a typical membrane process. Minimum capital cost is at 1.0. Ordinate Relative cost. Line with positive slope is total membrane cost. Line with negative slope is total ancillary equipment cost. Curve is total capital cost. Minimum cost is at 1.0. 

Environmental Factors These inchrde (I) eqrripment location, (2) available space, (3) ambient conditions, (4) availabuity of adeqrrate rrtilities (i.e., power, water, etc.) and ancillary-system facilities (i.e., waste treatment and disposal, etc.), (5) maximrrm aUowable emission (air polhrtion codes), (6) aesthetic considerations (i.e., visible steam or water-vapor phrme, etc.), (7) contribrrtions of the air-poUrrtion-control system to wastewater and land poUrrtion, and (8) contribrrtion of the air-poUrrtion-control system to plant noise levels.

Because of these limitations, different models may appear to describe the unit operation equally well. Analysts must discriminate among various models with the associated parameter estimates that best meet the end-use criteria for the model development. There are three principal criteria forjudging the suitability of one model over another. In addition, there are ancillary criteria like computing time and ease of use that may also contribute to the decision but are not of general concern. 

Understanding the chemistry of the process also provides the greatest opportunity in applying the principles of inherent safety at the chemical synthesis stage. Process chemistry greatly determines the potential impact of the processing facility on people and the environment. It also determines such important safety variables as inventory, ancillary unit operations, by-product disposal, etc. Creative design and selection of process chemistry can result in the use of inherently safer chemicals, a reduction in the inventories of hazardous chemicals and/or a minimization of waste treatment requirements.
