Gas or electric driven pump. Verify adequate circulation by shutting off the glycol discharge from the absorber and timing the fill rate in the gauge glass. 

Bottom filling should be used for nonconductive flammable liquids and filters should be placed at least three relaxation times upstream (5-3.4 and 5-3.5). The container should be grounded prior to opening and sealed prior to removing the grounding system. Filling rates should be similar to those...

Required movement = 600 cu ft/hr/100 bbl of filling rate for oils with flash point above 100°F. 

In order to judge performance capabilities that exist within the controlled variabilities, there must be a reference to measure performance against. As an example, the injection mold cavity pressure profile is a parameter that is easily influenced by variations in the materials. Related to this parameter are four groups of variables that when put together influences the profile (1) melt viscosity and fill rate, (2) boost time, (3) pack and hold pressures, and (4) recovery of plastica-tor. TTius material variations may be directly related to the cavity pressure variation. Details on EQUIPMENT/PROCESSING VARIABLE are in Chapter 8. 

The capacitance values of the carbons from propylene, i.e. CPr in the three electrolytic media are lower than for the materials from sucrose CS (Table 4), and they decrease with the total surface area of the carbon materials, i.e. with the filling rate of carbon in the silica porosity [18], These results are not surprising since the carbon filling is quite uniform during the CVI process, and consequently, the fraction of micropores formed is much...

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in supply chain balanced scorecards and performance management are one example for analysis methods. Beamon (1998) and Chan (2003) distinguish qualitative performance measures such as customer satisfaction, on-time delivery, fill rate or flexibility as well as quantitative measures based on costs in distribution, manufacturing and inventory or warehousing. 

Factors that affect the bulk density are the fill rate—how fast the substance is transferred to the container—and the size of particles. As the fill rate increases, the particles have less time to arrange or settle and the resulting apparent volume is larger. We see this when we purchase cereal at the grocery store and the box is only two thirds full. 

Very slowly ( 1 mL/sec) pour ice cream salt (rock salt) to the 100-mL level in a graduated cylinder. Quickly pour the contents through a funnel into another 100-mL graduated cylinder. Repeat using both fast and slow fill rates. With the level greater than 100 mL, cover the top of the cylinder with your hand and shake vigorously until the level falls to 100 mL. 

Explain why the fill rate is an important factor when determining the bulk density ... 

As the fill rate increases, the particles have less time to arrange or settle, resulting in larger volumes.
