Environment problem

In agricultural spraying, one of the biggest concerns is the drifting of small droplets. Drifting sprays not only lead to waste and environment problems, but also could endanger other nearby crops. Droplets smaller than 150 p.m can be easily blown away from the intended target area by a cross wind. A typical herbicide atomizer produces a spray with 15—20% of the Hquid volume contained in droplets less than 150 p.m. Atomizer improvements must be made so that the spray contains a narrow droplet size distribution with Hquid volume less than 5% contributed by the smaller droplets. [Pg.335]

With PBAs the compressed gases often used are nitrogen or carbon dioxide. These gases are injected into a plastic melt in the screw barrel under pressure (higher than the melt pressure) and form a cellular structure when the melt is released to atmospheric pressure or low pressure. The volatile liquids are usually aliphatic hydrocarbons, which may be halogenated, and include materials such as carbon dioxide, pentane, hexane, methyl chloride, etc. Polychlorofluoro-carbons were formerly used but they have now been phased out due to environment problems. [Pg.499]

The FAT is normally a contractual acceptance test that serves to ensure that within the limitations of testing available at the supplier s premises the system operates satisfactorily, and for any problems identified during testing has the advantage of being directly resourced and resolved in the development environment. Problems (particularly software-related) carried over or detected on site are invariably more difficult and time-consuming to rectify. [Pg.609]

Environmental and work environment problems are two issues that engage policy makers at the national and European as well as international levels. These are issues that are of utmost importance for the lives and health of human beings now and in the future. But the environment can only improve if patterns of behaviour and consumption are changed at both an individual and an organisational level. [Pg.319]

If the problem under consideration is high noise radiation, an operational evaluation should be made to determine both the frequencies and magnitudes of the noise being radiated and the source of radiation. An unacceptable vibration level environment problem should be attacked in the same basic manner as the noise problem using vibration measurements instead of acoustic measurements. [Pg.347]

For many enzymes, the period surrounding publication of the first edition of this volume was a peak in the application of activity assays to marine environments. Problems with interpretation of such measurements and inadequate characterization of the enzymes in marine organisms led to a period of dechne in their use. In the years that have followed, we have made considerable progress in understanding... [Pg.1427]

The group decided to work on local environment problems. [Pg.485]

Moreover, in the 1970s, air, water, and waste were treated as separate problem areas to be governed by their own statutes and regulations. Toward the latter part of the decade, however, it became obvious that environment problems were closely interwoven and should be treated in concert. The traditional type of regulation— command and control—had severely restricted compliance options. [Pg.2397]

The oxidation of the toluence can be achieved directly by transition metal oxidants [6]. However, not only do they have their effluent based environment problems, they also tend to be non-selective to the range of products produced. [Pg.121]

It is clear that innovative instruments and measurement strategies are required to cure the undersampled environment problem. They can be developed and deployed if ongoing advances in a wide range of enabling technologies are adapted and exploited. For many environmental challenges, measurement requirements favor real-time, mobile, autonomous instruments. The resulting quantum leaps in measurement capabilities will have the potential to revolutionize atmospheric and environmental chemistry. [Pg.148]

Methanol, ethanol and other organic or oxygenate compounds added to gasoline to make up for a decrease in lead and thus to improve its anti-knock quality could also create health and environment problems. [Pg.47]

The fact that the majority decisions of March and June 1985 aim at an intrinsic European solution to the environment problems caused by road traffic must be welcomed without reservation in Brussels. [Pg.76]

The industrial transformation is not only economic problem but also social problem. If it isn t solved well, it will influence the stability of society, and also bring biological environment problems which will influence environment for hundreds of years even thousands of years. Therefore, the implement of transformation strategies should take overall consideration, make a long-term planning and avoid taking old path only for the pursuit of GDP. [Pg.1226]

The microfluid segments are always handled in capillaries and microchannels. In consequence, they are separated from the environment. Problems caused by contact to air like undesired evaporation of solvent and complete drying out are avoided. Undesired influences of humidity and oxygen from air on oxidation-sensitive compounds of anaerobic cells can be excluded or strongly suppressed. Also, undesired effects of contact between the components of handled samples and the wall surfaces can be significantly reduced or suppressed by the separation of samples inside segments from the walls due to the carrier liquid. [Pg.2202]

Theoretical Evaluation Let us work on a traversal problem P, and define Size P) as the global number of HDD nodes required to solve it in a monoprocessor implementation. In our environment problem P is decomposed in N parallel sub-tasks P,- (i = 1 TV). We express the global size of HDDs involved in this solution as ... [Pg.179]

As in many other agricultural products, oil palm generates abundant amoxmts of biomass. Properly used, the biomass is not only able to solve environmental problems, but also generates a new income since the wastes may turn into more useful products. On the contrary, if the waste is not used, its disposal may lead to environment problems... [Pg.46]

Regarding the annual population growth, daily energy requirement, environment problems such as air pollution and global warming caused by fossil fuels (mainly due to emission of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide), high price of petroleum fuel, and reduction of the petroleum reservoir, experts are trying to find novel biofuel production methods to replace petro-diesel with biofuel. [Pg.289]
