Recoverable benefits

I he fossil fuels currently available to us are limited. At present rates of con-X sumption, known recoverable oil and gas reserves will disappear by the end of the century and coal reserves several centuries after that. Furthermore, burning fossil fuels adds undesirable amounts of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. Nuclear fission reactors do not emit greenhouse gases, but they generate massive quantities of radioactive wastes. Nuclear fusion reactors offer many potential benefits, but it may take many decades before they are both technologically and economically feasible. So what do we do ... [Pg.651]

The biomass fractionation options and their economical benefits have been discussed by Blander and Hsu [57]. The objective of the fractionation is to separate different biomass components and subsequently convert the cellulose and the hemicellulose into products separately. To achieve this objective, mild treatment conditions, such as low temperature, low concentration of reagents (or easily recoverable reagents) and low pressures, are necessary. Under this biomass component fractionation scheme, cellulose sugar (glucose) and hemicellulose carbohydrates (mostly xylose) can be converted into products in different reactors to produce different products if so desired. [Pg.220]

Last but not least, as easily recoverable and reusable catalysts, zeolites also allow to perform acid-mediated transformations with a clear environmental benefit, since it avoids the formation of huge amounts of salts which is typically encountered in acid catalyzed processes. Noteworthy, zeolites can also host active catalytic species such as metals or organometallic complexes for fine chemical synthesis. [Pg.120]

In summary, it can be seen, the Aging Mine defined standard feature selection, mainly reflected in the following indicators recoverable reserves length of service economic benefits efficiency production capacity. [Pg.1170]

The other benefit that a large tank policy has is that it allows the recoverer to use his refining capacity when it suits him to do so rather than when (in Mode 2 operation) the owner of the solvent may demand its recovery to a schedule. [Pg.4]

However, small scale users of solvents do not have the benefits of large volumes and the cost of operation of an on site recovery system is unjustified. Nevertheless, the solvent remains recoverable and hence retains a value. Under these circumstances, provided the economics are viable, conglomeration of a solvent obtained from a number of small users is required. This role of collection and subsequent bulk recovery is performed by solvent recovery agents . The reclaimed solvent obtained from such agents is generally of good quality and purity and can often be reused for less critical applications than those serviced by the virgin solvent. [Pg.140]

Besides the advantage of using cellulose as a renewable feedstock, the easy of recoverability of the catalysts from the solid residues and its reuse without any loss of activity or selectivity for several rims were other benefits generated by this composite architecture [20]. [Pg.323]

In addition, PTC has the advantage that easily recoverable solvents such as dichlormethane, toluene, and hexane can be used rather than polar solvents such as dimethyl formamide (DMF), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA), which are costlier. All these benefits lead to enhanced productivity with higher safety and lower environmental impact. Also, it must be mentioned that although a PT catalyst is mainly used to enhance reaction rates and yield, it can be a useful tool in many cases to selectively synthesize one product or significantly reduce an undesired by-product. One of the main concerns with PTC that has been a significant barrier to industrial adoption, especially in the pharmaceutical and food additives industry, is the issue of catalyst recovery from the final product stream. [Pg.82]

On 6 October 1997 tiie Social Security (Recovery of Benefits) Act 1997 came into force, replacing all previous recoupment regulations. Under this Act, compensators must now pay to the HfeS a sum equivalent to the amoxmt of recoverable State Benefits paid during tire relevant period, which is the period between the date of the accident (or in disease cases the date recoverable benefit is first claimed) and the date of settlement. [Pg.157]

Notwithstanding the benefits of obtaining a standard stable system through ISO procedures, it must be queried why a true quality company would need ISO 9000. If the customer or potential customer is not insisting in ISO accreditation, then the time and effort (and the effort expended will be a non-recoverable cost) makes the value of ISO to an organization highly questionable. [Pg.290]

Converting homogeneous catalytic reactions to heterogeneous versions will benefit the pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries because heterogeneous catalysts are physically separated from reactants and products and can therefore be easily recycled. Dendrimers have been employed as a recoverable catalyst platform using specially designed techniques, such as nanofiltration, precipitation, and two-phase catalysis [25]. [Pg.81]
