Conversion Converting

Chromium Surfa.ce Conversion. Converting the surface of an active metal by incorporating a barrier film of complex chromium compounds protects the metal from corrosion, provides an excellent base for subsequent painting, provides a chemical poHsh, and/or colors the metal.

Data to information conversion. Converts the data from analytical instruments into useful information. 

Internal conversion converts states into Si, fluorescence usually occurs from Si to Sq. Thus, it is a spin allowed transition that occurs very fast, causing rather short lifetimes for excited singlet states (10 -10 s). Since some of the absorbed energy is lost in the faster vibrational relaxation (10 -10 s), the photons are emitted at lower energy. The difference between the absorption and...

Water-soluble binder systems - These eoatings are based on binders that are soluble in water. Upon diying, the binder is crosslinked, usually through oxygen conversion. Convertible resins are modified through the addition of carboxylic, hydroxyl, or amino groups to render them water soluble. 

Unwanted byproducts usually cannot be converted back to useful products or raw materials. The reaction to unwanted byproducts creates both raw materials costs due to the raw materials which are wasted in their formation and environmental costs for their disposal. Thus maximum selectivity is wanted for the chosen reactor conversion. The objectives at this stage can be summarized as follows ... 

Laboratory studies indicate that a hydrogen-toluene ratio of 5 at the reactor inlet is required to prevent excessive coke formation in the reactor. Even with a large excess of hydrogen, the toluene cannot be forced to complete conversion. The laboratory studies indicate that the selectivity (i.e., fraction of toluene reacted which is converted to benzene) is related to the conversion (i.e., fraction of toluene fed which is reacted) according to ... 

The process requires (Qup + Qlp) to satisfy its enthalpy imbalance above the pinch. If there were no losses from the boiler, then fuel W would be converted to shaftwork W at 100 percent efficiency. However, the boiler losses Qloss reduce this to below 100 percent conversion. In practice, in addition to the boiler losses, there also can be significant losses from the steam distribution system. Figure 6.336 shows how the grand composite curve can be used to size steam turbine cycles. ... 

As a complementary process to reforming, isomerization converts normal paraffins to iso-paraffins, either to prepare streams for other conversions nCi —> /C4 destined for alkylation or to increase the motor and research octane numbers of iight components in the gasoiine pooi, i.e., the C5 or Cs-Ce fractions from primary distillation of the crude, or light gasoline from conversion processes, having low octane numbers. 

In two stages with recycle to the second stage, the conversion per pass is approximately 50 wt. % and the selectivity to middle distillates is maximal 75 to 80 wt. %. However, the investment is clearly higher and is justified only when feedstocks are difficult to convert and that their content in nitrogen is high. Figure 10.11 represents two variants of the hydrocracking process. 

Its purpose is to partially convert heavy fractions highly contaminated by natural compounds such as sulfur, nitrogen, metals Ni, V, and asphaltenes and to prepare feedstocks for deeper conversion or to produce low-sulfur fuel-oil. 

The conversion products, other than gas and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), are essentially a gasoline fraction that, after pretreatment, will be converted by catalytic reforming an average quality distillate fraction to be sent to the gas oil pool and an atmospheric residue or vacuum distillate and vacuum residue whose properties and impurity levels (S, N, Conr. 

An exploration or appraisal well, if successful, can be converted to a subsea producer if hydrocarbons are discovered. In this case the initial well design would have to allow for any proposed conversion. 

An X-ray image of a test object is converted by a X-ray TV unit (4), and complete video-signal from it is supplied to specialized computer (5). For conversion of X-ray images series X-ray vidicons LI-444 and LI-473 can be used or experimental X-ray vidicons of the same dimensions with a Be input window [2] sensitive to soft X-radiation developed in Introscopy Institute. >. ... 

Side drilled holes are widely used as reference reflectors, especially when angle beam probes are used (e.g. for weld testing). However, the distance law of side drilled holes is different to that of a flat bottomed hole. In the literature [2] a conversion formula is given which allows to convert the diameter of a side drilled hole into the diameter of a flat bottomed hole and vice versa, valid in the far field only, and for diameters greater than 1.5 times the wave length. In practical application this formula can be used down to approximately one nearfield length, without making big mistakes. Fig. 2 shows curves recorded from real flat bottomed holes, and the uncorrected and corrected DGS curves. 

We consider next perhaps the bet understood catalyzed reaction the oxidation of CO over group VIII metal catalysts. The reaction is an important environmental one since it involves the conversion of CO to CO2 in automobile catalytic converters. The mechanism is straightforward ... 

A phase change takes place when one enantiomer is converted to its optical isomer. As illustrated in Figure 9, when the chiral center is a tetra-substituted carbon atom, the conversion of one enantiomer to the other is equivalent to the exchange of two electron pairs. This transformation is therefore phase inverting. 

The equilibrium constant for this reaction decreases with increase in temperature but the higher temperature is required to achieve a reasonable rate of conversion. Hydrogen chloride is now being produced in increasing quantities as a by-product in organic chlorination reactions and it is economic to re-convert this to chlorine. 

The different internal and external file formats make it necessary to have programs which convert one format into another. One of the first conversion programs for chemical structure information was Babel (around 1992). It supports almost 50 data formats for input and output of chemical structure information [61]. CLIFF is another file format converter based on the CACTVS technology and which supports nearly the same number of file formats [29]. In contrast to Babel, the program is more comprehensive it is able to convert chemical reaction information, and can calculate missing atom coordinates [29]. 

During the process of conversion, a program may drop some information produced by other software because the format conventions cannot handle this additional information. For example, when the J ACMP format is converted to a Molfile, its content is reduced to structural data only, without spectra data. In other cases, a... 

Place 5 ml. of benzaldehyde in a wide-necked stout-walled bottle of about 100 ml. capacity (a conical flask is too fragile for this purpose) and add 50 ml. of concentrated dy 0 880) ammonia solution. Cork the bottle securely, shake vigorously, and then allow to stand for 24 hours, by which time the layer of benzaldehyde at the bottom of the bottle will have been converted into a hard mass of hydrobenzamide. (If after 24 hours the crude hydrobenzamide is still syrupy, shake the mixture vigorously and allow to stand for another hour, when the conversion will be complete.) Break up the solid pellet with a strong spatula, filter at the pump, wash with water and drain thoroughly. Recrystallise from ethanol methylated spirit should not be used, as it contains sufficient water to cause partial hydrolysis back to benzaldehyde and ammonia. Hydrobenzamide is obtained as colourless crystals, m.p. 101° (and not 110° as frequently quoted) yield, 4 g. 

The term distillation is applied to vaporisation and subsequent condensation according to (i) it should also be applied to (ii) since it is really the liquid which is converted into vapour and is first formed by condensation. Strictly speaking, the term sublimation should be applied to changes according to (iii). However, in practice, a substance when heated may first melt and then boil, but on cooling it may pass directly from the vapour to the solid the process is then also called sublimation. Indeed the mode of vaporisation, whether directly from solid to vapour or through the intermediate formation of a liquid, is of secondary importance it is the direct conversion of vapour to solid which is really the outstanding feature of sublimation in the laboratory.
