In-plant demonstrations

They conducted sectoral and cross-sectoral in-plant demonstrations of cleaner production to show the potential of waste minimization in the country. 

The first experimental demonstration of the magnitude of x, was performed with the CAM System at the N.C. State University model card room in November 1979 (1,1). Subsequently, several in-plant demonstrations have been made with the CAM System, with... 

In discussing the future in-plant demonstration, the company expressed doubt that sufficient quantities of Nylon 66 pantyhose ncessary to conduct the demonstration would be required by company customers in the season in which the demonstration was planned. In addition, Nylon 6-based pantyhose had overtaken Nylon 66-based pantyhose as the company s largest volume style. 

An in-plant demonstration of dyebath reuse applied to coloration of nylon pantyhose has recently been completed, and the results will be published elsewhere (14). 

A new acoustic emission system (AEBIL Acoustic Emission Binary Localizer) meeting the requirements for continuous on-line structural surveillance of critical conponents of operating plants Is described in the paper. The system is specifically designed to identify and locate structurally significant, spatially concentrated, AE sources in the presence of a high rate of spatially diffuse AE events. The system performance and reliability has been extensively demonstrated in In-plant applications. 

This experiment demonstrates how control charts and an analysis of variance can be used to evaluate the quality of results in a quantitative analysis for chlorophyll a and b in plant material. 

BAS 111 l-Phenoxy-3-(lH-l,2,4-tria2ole-l-yl)-4-hydroxy-5,5-dimethylhexane [9003-11-6] (BAS 111) (46) is a triazole that has plant growth inhibiting properties. It exerts its influence by inhibiting the production of gibbereUic acid in plants this has been demonstrated in canola (31,37). 

Several manufacturers of ceramic powders are involved in commercializa tion of hydrothermaHy derived powders. In the United States, Cabot (Boyertown, Peimsylvania) has built a small manufacturing plant and is supplying materials to capacitor manufacturers. Other manufacturers include Sakai Chemical and Euji Titanium in Japan. Sakai Chemical is reportedly producing 1 t/d in its demonstration plant. A comparison of the characteristics of commercially available powders is given in Table 2. 

Atomic- Vapor Laser Isotope-Separation. Although the technology has been around since the 1970s, laser isotope separation has only recently matured to the point of industrialization. In particular, laser isotope separation for the production of fuel and moderators for nuclear power generation is on the threshold of pilot-plant demonstrations in several countries. In the atomic vapor laser isotope-separation (AVLIS) process, vibrationaHy cooled U metal atoms are selectively ionized by means of a high power (1—2 kW) tunable copper vapor or dye laser operated at high (kHz) repetition rates (51,59,60). 

A RO stage can be used to reduce salinity and related parameters for high standard industrial reuse using the former UF effluent as feed stream. A pilot plant with 0.4 m h constant permeate flux capacity has been used in this demonstration. Table 7 summarizes the main technical characteristics of this plant. In order to increase the overall system recovery ratio while maintaining an acceptable... 

The photoprotective role of carotenoids is demonstrated in plant mutants that cannot synthesize essential leaf carotenoids. These mutants are lethal in nature since without carotenoids, chlorophylls degrade, their leaves are white in color, and photosynthesis cannot occur. Generally, the carotenoids are effective for visible light but have no effects in ultraviolet, gamma, or x-radiation. The reactions are listed as follows ... 

In plants, and more specifically in leaves, the antioxidant role of carotenoids is well demonstrated because they quench singlet oxygen as noted earlier. However, the antioxidant role of carotenoids in humans is still under debate.
