The methods recommended above for mitigation of on-farm GHG emissions in the fluid milk supply chain were obtained from years of research that evaluated the impact of various practices on each GHG. The research was typically conducted on experimental farm plots under a particular farm management system meaning that the data are relevant for that system with a particular soil type, herd size, and climate, for example, and may not apply to a different farm management system. The impact of a particular mitigation procedure for one GHG on another is also relatively unknovm as well as the impact of the mitigation on more complex interactions such as the total C and N throughout the farm.

Treatment of AP is aimed at relieving abdominal pain, replacing fluids, minimizing systemic complications, and preventing pancreatic necrosis and infection. Management varies depending on the severity... 

Of course. Equation 10 applies to all forms of fluid management-cross-flow as well as stirred cells. For large scale systems, cross-flow techniques are pre-ferred-where the feed stream flows tangential to the membrane surface (see... 

It is therefore unsurprising that away from the formal manifestations of legal requirements in safety management systems and documents, safety becomes much more fluid and flexible. When those who work on sites everyday try to adopt the polarised lexicon of safety with their own understandings of construction site life, it doesn t quite work. Evidence of this can be readily found in site-produced safety documentation (as opposed to formal corporate documents distributed by contractor head offices), such as induction slides, where the site team often try to reposition safe/ unsafe within a wider context examples of practice are given as they were in the earliest legislation, the acknowledgement of variation... 

Ruid volume regulation is necessary to maintain life. Decreased and inadequate fluid volume (i.e., hypovolemia) can result in decreased flow and perfusion to the tissues. Increased or excessive fluid volume (i.e., hypervolemia) can placed stress on the heart and cause dilutional electrolyte imbalance. It is clear that the renal system plays a vital role in fluid management. If the kidneys are not functioning fully, fluid excretion and retention will not occur appropriately in response to fluid adjustment needs. 2...

In addition, just as employee participation is the key element of process safety management systems, worker involvement is crucial to the effective application of Safety Cases. Unfortunately, the perception among many that a Safety Case is a lengthy, highly technical document that can only be understood by specialists, mitigates effective employee participation. For example the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique used to model explosion over-pressure uses very sophisticated mathematics. This sophistication makes communication with nonspecialists a challenge. In addition the sheer size and complexity of a Safety Case may serve as a barrier to the involvement of nontechnical personnel. 

Selection has to be based on some fairly intricate differences in balance of properties, as the following examples show. A connector made by AMP for the BMW engine management system uses unfilled PES (Fig. 7.2) the reasons are the temperature peaks of up to 180°C, plus the need for resilience (associated with unreinforced materials), and uniform electrical performance over a wide temperature range (a characteristic of amorphous aromatic polymers). A connector by TRW for a VW automatic transmission system needs not only the ability to survive occasional exposure to 180°C, but also resistance to hot brake fluid in this case a reinforced PA 46 was the best answer. Nylon 46 is favoured in other cases where the connector is in direct contact with the cylinder block.
