Monitoring parameters, revision

Determine whether the chart parameters can be used to monitor the process revise the parameters if necessary. 

Changes in parameters are found that increase the agreement between measured data and those calculated from the revised model that results from these changes. The positions x, y, and z and the atomic displacement (thermal) parameters B derived for each atom in a preliminary crystal structure are adjusted so as to improve the agreement between the observed structure amplitudes, F hkl) o, and those calculated from the determined model F hkl) c. The progress in improving this agreement is usually monitored by a residual index known as the R value, defined as ... 

During 2007, the Commission decided to pursue revision of the 1998 Directive to accommodate concepmal and other requirements for effective implementation of EU drinking water protections. Toward that end, it sought WHO s preparation of WHO—Europe s support document, issued in October 2007 (see above WHO, 2007). In addition, it commissioned a detailed study on a list of chemical parameters for directive revision, with a final report released in September 2008 (DG Env/DHl, 2008). This report recommended retaining the 10 p,g Pb/1 standard, measured at the tap, but noted that four member states were having compliance problems, and there were problems in terms of lead connections and monitoring. 

In this chapter, aromatic amines, sources and their environmental impact is outlined. The available methods for aromatic amines monitoring are described and degradation methods are reviewed, with special emphasis on biodegradation. Various parameters affecting the biodegradation, such as the type of electron acceptors, and some kinetic considerations are revised.
