Nardin and Cramers (1996) and Opre (2009) have described several examples in which the addition of a suitable external separation loop can be advantageously used to remove a by-product of the reaction. A condensable vapor-like water is easily eliminated in the external loop condenser(s) (Fig. 8.2). 

Similarly, an absorber can be incorporated in the secondary external loop to remove a gaseous by-product that may affect the conversion of the reactant (Fig. 8.3). 

The manufacture of pure monochloroacetic acid (MCA A) through the hydrogenation of dichloroacetic acid with in situ removal of by-product hydrogen chloride and the alkylation of polyether alcohols with in situ ranoval of methanol have also been described (http //www.buss-cLcom/e/reaction technology/ln Situ Removal of By Products.php navid=34). In both cases, removal of a product of the reaction eliminates the thermodynamic limitation. As a result, the reaction time can be substantially lowered ( 50%) with simultaneous improvement in the yield and purity of the main product. 

2 The Advanced Buss Loop Reactor (ABLR) This reactor has been described in detail by Baier (2(X)1). This unit includes two major modifications of the previous version termed BLR . A shorter venturi without a diffuser or draft tube has replaced the relatively long prior design. In this form, the combination of primary

There is only one monosynaptic reflex known to exist in humans - the stretch reflex. For this reason, it is commonly examined and an overview of its components and their functions is given below.

This chapter first describes the physical characteristics of heavy-duty liquids, which is followed by a detailed description of typical formulation components and their functions. This is followed by a brief discussion of evaluation methodologies. Finally, the emerging trends in the formulation of heavy-duty liquids are reviewed. A comprehensive listing of the patents relevant to HDLDs is given in the Appendix. 

To establish any predetermined electrode potential, the experimental arrangement shown in Fig. 2.12 is used. The components and their functions include ... 

System components were designed, fabricated, tested, and optimized in an iterative process. Primary system components and their functions are listed in Table 1. Each component was tested, redesigned, and tested again until optimum geometries and formulations were determined. Then the components were integrated step by step and tested again. Complete system testing is now underway.

The intent of this chapter is to familiarize the reader with the capabilities of the most common versions of slide forming machines. A brief description of each of the basic slide forming machine components and their function within the machine system will be given. The differences between the specific models for forming round wire and flat stock will be described. This will allow the designer to make a more informed selection of the appropriate slide forming machine for a given application. 

This treatment of reactor design is certainly not intended to be comprehensive. It discusses in general terms the following components and their functions ...

This system is shown in Figure 6.2. The working electrode WE) potential is measured against the reference electrode, provided that an ohmic resistance gradient is significantly reduced and current flows only between the auxiliary electrode and the worldng electrode [1-2]. The electrochemical cell components and their functions are described below. 

As a direct cycle gas turbine power plant, the GT-MHR has no intermediate or secondary circuits as would be associated with steam cycle power plants. To illustrate the primary components and their function in the power cycle, a simplified process flow diagram is provided in Fig. XV-2. 

The system model can describe the vehicle interfaces and the aspects described under the vehicle system models would be valid. The components interfaces could be defined the same way so that the behavior of the components and their functions or functionalities can be described, analyzed, or verified. Furthermore, a model of the microcontroller could be used in order to describe, analyze or verify the hardware-software-interface and the behavior of the software within the microcontroller (environment). Nowadays even in the silicon models are widely used to describe the functionalities of semiconductors and validate those against the different realized samples. This means that a system approach is used in order to display the inner behavior of the silicon. ADL (architecture description languages) are widely used for that purpose. 

Membrane impermeability is the major contributing factor to multidrug resistance in clinical isolates of Leishmania major (Perez Victoria et al., 2006). Reductionism which dominated biological research for over a century has provided a wealth of information about individual cellular components and their functions. Understanding the structure and the dynamics of the complex intercellular web of interactions that contribute to the structure and function of a living cell is a key challenge for biology in the 21 century. 

More detailed explanations of the main components and their functions are given in Sections 19.3.2 and 19.3.3.
