Targets economic

Another area for research is how groundwater fluxes of vanadium (critical for carnotite precipitation) and phosphate (enhances uranium mobility) are controlled by geology and geomorphology. This may assist in targeting economic from sub-economic targets. 

Technical and economical targets have been established by the US Department of Energy (US DOE) in collaboration with car manufacturers and are summarised in Table 11.1. It should be mentioned that there may be variations regarding the assessment of specific targets between car manufacturers from Europe, the USA and Japan. 

The economic target of an electrochemical process is to keep the electrical consumption to a minimum. On the basis of Equation (7.15), this implies that a process should be performed at the maximum I with the minimum AV In industrial processes, it is the current to be fixed rather than the electrode potential difference. 

Biocatalysts are often insufficiently stable to meet process and economic targets. 

Within the lessor s company, partly contrary economical targets are combined ... 

Deep-basin resources (seams > 0.6 m. thick and lying between 60 and 1500 m,) were initially estimated by Kaiser ( ) at approximately 90 billion tons. However, thick seams at much less than 1500 m. are the economic targets for in situ gasification and deep surface mining. These deep-basin resources (seams > 1,5 m, thick and lying between 60 and 600 m. deep) have been estimated more recently (O at approximately 31.2 billion metric tons. 

Technical and economic targets were developed for direct hydrogen transportation PEM fuel cell systems and they are indicated along with the status in Table 3, as well as in Appendix A. The targets and status of gasoline-fueled systems remain the same as in FY 2001. Note that the Freedom CAR fuel cell technical team is currently considering revisions to all technical targets. 

Don t make direct labor the prime economic target of new technology the displacement of direct labor is only a small part of the economic benefit of the new technology. 

Economic processing of below cut-off grade saprolites represent an economic target for consideration. At say 1.5% Ni grade, the in-situ value of below cut-off grade saprolites is 330 USD/t using a nickel price of 20,000/t. 

Design work is progressing in JAPC on the DFBR. The technical feasibility of the top entry loop type DFBR has been confirmed, and the economic targets fulfilled. The possibility of FBR commercialization and targets of technological development have been envisioned through the cooperation of JAPC and PNC. 

The challenge today lies in economic targets that are just as important as technical and safety targets. At first glance, economic behaviour appears to be in conflict with safety considerations. Overly cost based strategies tend to reduce or eliminate all expenses that do not support production. 

The main parameter adjusted to allow for bad fuel quality is turbine inlet temperature. It is lowered. Frequently, this prompts a choice of a different model of gas turbine or combined cycle (gas turbine/steam turbine) package. Additional features, such as water/steam injection and fuel treatment, may have to be added before life-cycle analysis indicates an economically targeted value for component lives, TBOs, and so forth. See example case history 3.
