When coal is heated to a high temperature in the absence of air, it undergoes decomposition volatile products (coal gas and coal tar) distill away and a residue called coke remains. Coke is a valuable industrial material which finds its chief use in the reduction of iron ore (iron oxide) to iron for the manufacture of steel. Coke is essentially carbon that still contains the mineral substances that are present in all coals (and form the ash that results when coal or coke is burned). 

Krypton is expensive to produce, which limits its use as an inert gas. It is used in a mixture with argon to fill incandescent light bulbs, fluorescent lamps, lasers, and high-speed photography lamps. Radioactive Kr-85 is used as a source of radiation to measure the thickness of industrial materials. It is also used to test for leakage of scientific instruments.

Figure 7.42 Types of gas sorption isotherm - microporous solids are characterised by a type I isotherm. Type II corresponds to macroporous materials with point B being the point at which monolayer coverage is complete. Type III is similar to type II but with adsorbate-adsorbate interactions playing an important role. Type IV corresponds to mesoporous industrial materials with the hysteresis arising from capillary condensation. The limiting adsorption at high P/P0 is a characteristic feature. Type V is uncommon. It is related to type III with weak adsorbent-adsorbate interactions. Type VI represents multilayer adsorption onto a uniform, non-porous surface with each step size representing the layer capacity (reproduced by permission of IUPAC).

At present, hundreds of various elastic and rigid gas-filled materials used literally in all branches of industry are produced on the basis of reactive oligonwrs and high polymers. The production of these materials is rapidly expanding. Thus, in 1970 the world output of plastic foams was 2 million tons, in 1975 3.5 million tons, 1980 it will be 5-6 million tons, and in 1985 about 20% (6% in 1975) of all plastic materials will be gas-filled ... 

Freely foamed oligoester plastics are being increasingly used as light fillers in load-carrying structures, as heat, sound and electrical insulating and buoyant materials. This type of gas-filled material finds application in building, furniture and other industries. 

A pilot test plant with hydrogen production capacity of about 30 Nm /h is being designed. The pilot test plant will be made of industrial materials and operated using an electrically heated high-pressure helium gas as the heat source. Figure 10 shows a tentative scheme of the pilot test facility, which consists of the IS process pilot test plant and a helium gas circulation facility (He loop)... 

Carbon dioxide is a potential carbon resource abundant on earth. It is also a green house gas with a rapidly increasing atmospheric concentration during the last two centuries. Chemical fixation of CO2 is an attractive technique for utilization of carbon resources, as well as for the reduction of the atmospheric concentration of CO2. Nevertheless, CO2 is the stablest among carbon based substances under the enviromnental conditions. It has not been incorporated as a major industrial material.

How can a single chlorine atom react with a thousand or more other atoms It does this through a radical chain reaction, similar to that used to make a number of industrial materials such as polymers and glues. In each stage of the reaction a radical (of one form or another) is preserved or is easily re-formed by UV the chlorine radical is regenerated to knock out more ozone. A minority of reactions also, eventually, knock out the chlorine radical too (e.g. as the acidic gas HCl). 

The refractory carbides are hard and wear resistant, have high melting points, and are chemically inert. In a relatively short time, they have become major industrial materials with numerous applications such as cutting and grinding tools, bearings, textile-machinery components, oxidation-resistant gas burners, and many others. 

Sensor systems (e-noses) for at-Une measurement, coated with various gas sensitive materials which react differently with the volatiles to be analysed, detect differences rather than absolute values. It is possible to verily quickly deviation from the standard. Process titrators are used today in many industrial fields of process control. The range of applications is extraordinary large [27,35].

The properties of many industrial materials are determined by the local properties of interfaces. The kinetics of gas/solid heterogeneous processes may be determined by the electric field that is generated as a result of segregation. This effect has many applied aspects. Also, the properties of materials that exhibit nonlinear characteristics are determined by interface composition and stracture.
