Standard Specifications British

In the United States creosote specification AWPA PI/89 is intended for the treatment of timber for land and fresh-water use, and the heavier grade AWPA P13/89 for the preservation of marine piling and timber. In the United Kingdom a British Standard Specification, BS. 144/90, Part 1, specifies three grades of creosote two for pressure impregnation and one for bmshing appHcation. The standards of the West European Institute for Wood Preservation (WEI) are often used in Europe. 

Silica gel and activated alumina present few practical problems. They are easily reactivated after use by heating in a ventilated oven, to 130-300°C for silica gel, and 150-700°C for activated alumina. British standard specifications have been published for desiccants for packaging which regulate the contents of soluble chloride and sulphate, dust content and absorptive capacity.

In the United Kingdom, though not a statutory requirement, all conventional pressure vessels for use in the chemical and allied industries will invariably be designed and fabricated in accordance with the British Standard specification for fusion-welded pressure vessels, BS 5500 or an equivalent code, such as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers code. Section VIII (the ASME code). The codes and standards cover design, materials of construction, fabrication (manufacture and workmanship), inspection and testing and form the basis of agreement between the manufacturer and customer, and the customer s insurance company. 

British Standard Specifications BS 410 [13] adopts a primary size of 75 pm (200-mesh) with a fourth root of two progression in size and suggest that alternate sieves should normally be used for an analysis (i.e. a root two progression of sizes). Thus, the specific surface area of particles on consecutive sieves is in a 2 1 progression. BS 1796 describes the methods to be used in sieving with woven wire and perforated plate sieves [14],... 

The tolerances on sieve cloth are extremely wide, particularly for small aperture cloth. For example, the British Standard Specification (BS 410) for a 200-mesh sieve requires a median diameter of 75 plus or minus 33 pm. It is clear that oversize apertures are more undesirable than undersize, since the latter are merely ineffective whilst the former permit the passage of oversize particles. In order to reduce differences between analyses using different sets of sieves (differences of up to 42% have been recorded) manufacturers such as ATM make specially selected sieves [45] available that can reduce the differences by a factor of 10.
