The majority of polymer electrodes cannot be doped to very high levels. For instance, polypyrrole may reach doping levels of the order of 33%. This inherent limitation combined with the fact that the operation of the lithium/polymer battery requires an excess of electrolyte (to ensure

In the first years of gasohol use some starting and driveabiUty problems were reported (19). Not all vehicles experienced these problems, however, and better fuel economy was often indicated even though the energy content of the fuel was reduced. Gasohol was exempted from the federal excise tax amounting to a 0.16/L ( 0.60/gal) subsidy. Without this subsidy, ethanol would be too expensive for use even as a fuel additive. 

Tetiyl. 2,4,6-Trinitrophenylmethylm tramine (tetryl) was used ia pressed form, mostly as a booster explosive and as a base charge ia detonators and blasting caps because of its sensitivity to initiation by primary explosives and its relatively high energy content. Properties are presented ia Table 11 (173). Batch and continuous processes for the production of tetryl have been developed. Tetryl is no longer used ia the United States and has been replaced by RDX (174-178). 

The servo voltage is a function of mass-flow rate. Axial-flow angular-momentum meters are sometimes used in measuring jet engine fuel flow as the fuel energy content correlates much mote closely with mass than volume. 

The chemical characteristics of biomass vary over a broad range because of the many different types of species. Table 8 compares the typical analyses and energy contents of land- and water-based biomass, ie, wood, grass, kelp, and water hyacinth, and waste biomass, ie, manure, urban refuse, and primary sewage sludge, with those of cellulose, peat, and bituminous coal. Pure cellulose, a representative primary photosynthetic product, has a carbon content of... 

Fig. 3. Effect of feed moisture content on energy available for synfuel production. Assumes feed has a heating value of 11.63 MJ /kg (5000 Btu/lb) dry. A, 0% moisture in dried feed B, 30% moisture in dried feed. For example, reduction of an initial moisture content of 70 wt % by thermal drying to 30% moisture content requites the equivalent of 37% feed energy content and leaves 63% feed energy available for SNG production.

One method of analyzing net energetics of a biomass energy system is to let E E, and represent the energy content of the dry biomass feed, E ... 

Chemical Composition. Chemical compositional data iaclude proximate and ultimate analyses, measures of aromaticity and reactivity, elemental composition of ash, and trace metal compositions of fuel and ash. All of these characteristics impact the combustion processes associated with wastes as fuels. Table 4 presents an analysis of a variety of wood-waste fuels these energy sources have modest energy contents.

Nuts are rich in protein and fat most commercially important nuts supply about 28 MJ /kg (6600 kcal/kg) of kernel, more than most other foods (Table 2) cereals supply about 15 MJ /kg (3640 kcal/kg) meats about 7.5 MJ /kg (1790 kcal/kg) and fresh fmits less than 2.8 MJ /kg (660 cal/kg). The energy content in kilojoules (1 food calorie or cal = 4.184 kJ) per kilogram of food is calculated by the following formula ...
