Charging Facilities

The safety concerns for vehicle charging facilities include hydrogen produced by the batteries during vehicle recharging and spills of battery electrolytes. Ignition hazards presented by the charging equipment are also a concern if other hazardous materials are present such as conventional vehicle fuels, solvents, etc. 

Some battery designs have liquid electrolyte in them that would have to be treated as hazardous materials if they were released. However, the actual quantities of such materials in batteries is very small and the probability of release during charging is remote. The most likely concern about release of battery electrolyte would be during vehicle collisions where the batteries are physically damaged. 

Facilities where EVs are charged or stored should be protected from fire. The same fire protection technologies used few conventional vehicles should be used for EVs. In charging facilities, sprinkler systems can be used because chargers are designed to withstand the water exposure that a sprinkler system would cause. Smoke alarms and ultraviolet/infrared detectors are recommended for EVs, just as they would be for conventional vehicles.

The wide use of electric vehicles should imply the widespread of battery charging facilities, which represent an essential and substantial investment for the development of the electric vehicle technology. The consequence would be the further development of both battery chargers and power supply infrastrucmres, together with the innovation of the components strictly related to electric vehicles. 

Cost of fuel including basic cost plus transport charges, facilities and manpower required for unloading and storing, insurance premiums for storage, etc. 

Do not store flammable gas cylinders with oxygen or nitrous oxide cylinders or adjacent to oxygen charging facilities. 

Maintenance and Resupply Ease of battery acquisition, accessible distribution ease of battery replacement available charging facilities special transportation, recovery, or disposal procedures required... 

Companies which own process facilities and evacuation routes, but no longer have the hydrocarbons to fill them, can continue to operate them profitably by renting the extra capacity or by charging tariffs for the use of export routes. 

Transportation Costs Most waste trucddug is done by commercial and hazardous waste firms. Costs are quoted per load, based on cost for transport (charged per load mile) from point of generation to its destination at a landfill or TSD facility. A strategy wriich permits shipment of full truckloads minimizes the transportation cost per ton. 

This reaction is most facile in systems where the atoms X and Y bear formal charges, as in the case of ylides and sulfoxides ... 

CERCLA requires tlie person in charge of a vessel or facility to notify the National Respan.se Center (NRC) inunediately when there is a release of a designated hazardous substance in an amount equal to or greater than the reportable quantity. CERCLA establishes the reportable quantity for releases of designated liazardous substances at one pound, unless otherwise specified. To ensure that the need for response can be evaluated and any response can be undertaken in a timely fashion, such releases require notification to government officials. 

The AIM facility in Gaussian can be used to predict a variety of atomic properties based on this theory. We will use it to compute atomic charges and bond order for the ally cation. 

An extensive derivative chemistry of the icosahedral carboranes has been developed, especially for l,2-C2BioHi2. Terminal H atoms attached to B undergo facile electrophilic substitution and the sequence of reactivity follows the sequence of negative charge density on the BHt group ... 

Examine the transition state for the hydride shift. Calculate the barrier from the more stable initial carbocation. Is the process more facile than typical thermal rearrangements of neutral molecules (.05 to. 08 au or approximately 30-50 kcal/mol) Is the barrier so small (<.02 au or approximately 12 kcal/mol) that it would be impossible to stop the rearrangement even at very low temperature Where is the positive charge in the transition state Examine atomic charges and the electrostatic potential map to tell. Is the name hydride shift appropriate If not, propose a more appropriate name. 

Calculate activation energies for Sn2 reactions of ammonia and trimethylamine with methyl iodide via transition states ammonia+methyl iodide and trimethyl-amine+methyl iodide, respectively. Is attack by ammonia or trimethylamine more facile Rationalize your observation by comparing electrostatic potential maps for the two transition states. Which transition state requires more charge separation Is this also the higher-energy transition state ... 

Deactivation (weak) from the adjoining ring does not prevent facile disubstitution of 4-methyl- and 4-phenyl-2,7-dichloro-1,8-naphthyridines wdth alkoxides (65°, 30 min), p-phenetidine (ca. 200°, 2 hr), hydrazine hydrate (100°, 8 hr), or diethylaminoethylmer-captide (in xylene, 145°, 24 hr) mono-substitution has not been reported. Nor does stronger deactivation prevent easy 2-oxonation of 5,7-dimethoxy-l-methylnaphthyridinium iodide wdth alkaline ferricyanide via hydroxide ion attack adjacent to the positive charge and loss of hydride ion by oxidation.
