Applications factors affecting

Selecting the SMPS controller IC. The important factors within this application that affect the choice of switching power supply controller IC are MOSFET driver needed (totem-pole driver), single-ended output, 50 percent duty cycle limit desired, and current-mode control desired. The popular industry choice that meets these needs is the UC3845B. 

Adsorption — An important physico-chemical phenomenon used in treatment of hazardous wastes or in predicting the behavior of hazardous materials in natural systems is adsorption. Adsorption is the concentration or accumulation of substances at a surface or interface between media. Hazardous materials are often removed from water or air by adsorption onto activated carbon. Adsorption of organic hazardous materials onto soils or sediments is an important factor affecting their mobility in the environment. Adsorption may be predicted by use of a number of equations most commonly relating the concentration of a chemical at the surface or interface to the concentration in air or in solution, at equilibrium. These equations may be solved graphically using laboratory data to plot "isotherms." The most common application of adsorption is for the removal of organic compounds from water by activated carbon. 

Apart from the successful imprinting discussed above, the recognition for many templates is far from that is required for the particular application, even after careful optimization of the other factors affecting the molecular recognition properties. Often, a large excess of MAA in the synthesis step is required for recognition to be observed and then only in solvents of low to medium polarity and hydrogen bond... 

Other considerations In addition to the above general factors affecting inhibitor application and performance, there will be other special effects relating to particular types of systems, e.g. in oil-production technology. Some of these are referred to in appropriate cases in the following section. 

The principles and practice of corrosion inhibition have been described in terms of the factors affecting inhibitor performance and selection (principles) and the more important practical situations in which inhibitors are used (practice). For the latter a brief account is given of the nature of the system, the reasons for inhibitor application and the types of inhibitor in use. 

The very wide use of inhibitors is obvious, but emphasis must always be placed on the factors affecting their performance and on the specific circumstances and other requirements relating to particular applications.

The rate of product to be applied is the critical factor affecting all residue studies. The rate should be the highest recommended rate for that particular crop and should be applied at the limit of the GAP for the specific crop. The test item should ideally be pre-weighed in a laboratory prior to making the application. In most cases, this procedure results in easier accountability of test items, more accurate measurement of required doses, and more accurate application in the field since only the correct amount of water is required to be added by the field operator. This procedure also reduces the quantity of test item required and hence reduces the waste, which has to be disposed of. An additional spare sample, which is weighed at the same time in case of mishap with the original sample may be prepared. 

Factors Affecting Potentially Applicable Remedial Technologies... 

Other factors affecting performance include the presence of toxic material, the redox potential, salinity of the groundwater, light intensity, hydraulic conductivity of the soil, and osmotic potential. The rate of biological treatment is higher for more permeable soils or aquifers. Bioremediation is not applicable to soils with very low permeability, because it would take a long time for the cleanup process unless many more wells were installed, thus raising the cost.
