The attraction of biodiesel is reduced discharge of undesirable combustion emission compounds into the air. Undoubtedly, effectiveness is related to the degree of petrochemicals replacement. Biodiesel is sold with a numerical designation of the oil/fat-ester content. B20 is a frequent blend, containing 80 percent petroleum diesel fuel and 20 percent FAME. A major farm equipment manufacturer has announced it will ship its new equipment with B2 in the fuel tanks. A salt mine has begun using B100 as a means to improve air quality for its workers. 

The fourth example of Lean Engineering Education, Project 4, took place at the University of Cape Town as well. For a local farming equipment manufacturer, two students were assigned to develop standard operating procedures. Both students were able to work independently of each other in the company s warehouse and on the production floor. Utilizing value stream mapping, PDCA and 5S, both students were able to develop internal standard operating procedures.

The American farm equipment manufacturer John Deere introduced new soy-based polymer panel components (Harvestform ) for combine harvesters in... 

The techniques used to manufacture clocks and guns spread to other industries. The industrial revolution was underway and an increasing number of products were in demand by business and individuals. The uniformity system was used in varying degrees to make sewing machines, bicycles and mechanized farm equipment. In each case, some fitting had to be done by specialists. No one had looked at the process as a whole and broken it down into small tasks arranged in the most efficient order possible. 

Historically, in those rural areas where modernization has occurred, petroleum products have provided the necessary energy inputs required for a variety of activities. Kerosene is a widely used illuminant, diesel oil for powering irrigation pumps and other farm equipment, gasoline for transportation and fertilizers are often manufactured from naphtha. However, the world oil situation now makes the "petroleum route" to development an increasingly difficult one for many developing countries to undertake. 

Establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing pneumatic casings, inner tubes, and solid and cushion tires for all types of vehicles, airplanes, farm equipment, and children s vehicles tiring camelback and tire repair and retreading materials. Establishments primarily engaged in retreading tires are classified in Services, Industry 7534. 

OTHER COMMENTS used as a gasoline additive for automotive, aviation and farm equipment used in solvent extraction processes, as a general laboratory solvent, and as a medium solvent for polymerization reactions used in the synthesis of amyl chlorides for intermediates in manufacture of paint, lacquer solvents, hydraulic fluids, paint removers, and miscellaneous petrochemicals used in the synthesis of polychlorocyclopentanes as intermediates in manufacture of fire-resistant polyester resins and paints, dye intermediates, and plasticizers use as a heat-exchange medium, a component of lighter fluids and blow-torch fuel, and in the manufacture of polystyrene beads for styrofoam production. 

Rollover protective structures as well as overhead protection are included in this section s regulations. This includes not only heavy construction equipment, but also farming equipment, mostly tractors, used by the general public. There are rollover protective structures (ROPS) for material handling equipment. If a ROPS is removed, it should be remounted with one of equal or better quality. Labeling should include the manufacturer s name, the model number, and the machine make or model. Machines... 

The lifeblood of modern society is found in petroleum products. Cars, planes, trains, ships, and farm equipment all require petroleum products to operate. Approximately 85% of all hydrocarbons manufactured are converted into gasoline. Jet fuel, diesel, heating oils, and liquefied petroleum. The remaining 15% provides the foundation (feedstock) for fertilizers, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, solvents, plastics, and many other products. It is difficult to look around our world and not see the results of modern petroleum manufacturing. Before 1800, though, few people recognized the value or potential of hydrocarbon processing. 

The lifeblood of modern society is found in petroleum products. Cars, planes, trains, ships, and farm equipment all require petroleum products to operate. Crude oil is a mixture of hydrocarbons that vary in molecular structure and weight. Modern manufacturers separate these components through the distillation process. 

The leading states in milk production in decreasing order are Wisconsin, Minnesota, New York, California, and Pennsylvania. These states produce - 45% of the U.S. milk supply. Less than 5% of the total production is used on farms and the remainder is sold for commercial purposes. Whereas milk and cream were formerly shipped in 19-, 30-, or 38-L cans from the farm to the plant, in the 1990s most commercial production, particularly for fluid milk, is moved in bulk from the cows to refrigerated farm tanks to insulated bulk tmck tankers and to the manufacturing plant. The investment in equipment and the cost of hired labor are associated with large, capital-intensive production centers. 

Solids can be separated on the basis of their particle size. When crushing and grinding equipment is used, a determination of the distribution of the various particle sizes is important in evaluating the performance of the equipment. The size of particles in soil gives an indication of the porosity and the ability for the soil to hold moisture and nutrients. It affects manufacturing processes and the formulation of products. The size of particles in dry feed for farm animals, such as swine, is related to its nutritional value. Many times the size of particles in a process may be specified in a standard method, such as the USP or FDA. 

The picture is much more complex, involving once-inflated farmland values used as collateral to finance equipment and fertilizer purchases by farmers, encouraged by lenders and often by county agriculture representatives, themselves influenced by the heavy pesticide promotion of manufacturers representatives. The result has been consolidation of former family-size farms into much larger units, managed in absentia by owner- corporations, and the rapid growth of agribusiness in the U.S.
