Officials

Responsibilities for safety and health inclnde the establishment and maintenance of an effective commnnication system between management officials, supervisors, and workers. To this end, all personnel are responsible for assuring that their messages are received and understood by the intended receiver. 

Specihc safety and health responsibilities for Name of Company personnel are as follows  

The safety and health of the employees are primary responsibilities of the supervisors. To accomplish this obligation, supervisors will  

Assure that all safety and health rules, regulations, policies, and procedures are understood by conducting pre-work safety orientations with all workers and reviewing rules as the job or conditions change or when individual workers show a specific need. 

Require the proper care and use of all necessary personal protective equipment to protect workers from hazards. 

Identify and eliminate job hazards expeditiously through hazard analysis procedures

Because of their diversity and complexity as well as the gradual internationalization of the different standards, it has proven necessary to standardize the methods of sample preservation, handling, fractionation, and analysis throughout the chain of separation and treatment. All these stages are the object of precise protocols established by official national and international organizations. They describe in as minute detail as possible the procedures employed not only for each analysis but very often giving different procedures for the same analysis in different matrices. These are the standards or standardized methods discussed in Chapter 7. 

Lamp Method the sample is burned in a closed system in an atmosphere of 70% CO2 and 30% oxygen in order to avoid formation of nitrogen oxides. This method was to have been abandoned as it takes three hours to carry out, but remains officially required for jet fuel sulfur analysis. 

These are not official specifications, but rather Quality" levels specified by French automobile manufacturers. 

The Superplus with its RON and MON greater than or equal to 98 and 88 respectively. These two values do not correspond to official specifications but to quality specification sheets drawn up by French auto manufacturers. Strictly according to the rules, Superplus is only a variety of a top quality Eurosuper. 

The lead alkyls and scavengers contained in fuels cause rapid poisoning ol exhaust gas catalytic converters. They are tolerated only in trace quantities in fuels for vehicles having that equipment. The officially allowed content is 0.013 g Pb/1, but the contents observed in actual practice are less than 0.005 g Pb/1. 

For a long time the official specifications for diesel fuel set only a mciximum viscosity of 9.5 mm /s at 20°C. Henceforth, a range of 2.5 mm /s minimum to 4.5 mm /s maximum has been set no longer for 20°C but at 40°C which seems to be more representative of injection pump operation. Except for special cases such as very low temperature very fluid diesel fuel and very heavy products, meeting the viscosity standards is not a major problem in refining. 

The luminometer index (ASTM D 1740) is a characteristic that is becoming less frequently used. It is determined using the standard lamp mentioned above, except that the lamp is equipped with thermocouples allowing measurement of temperatures corresponding to different flame heights, and a photo-electric cell to evaluate the luminosity. The jet fuel under test is compared to two pure hydrocarbons tetraline and iso-octane to which are attributed the indices 0 and 100, respectively. The values often observed in commercial products usually vary between 40 and 70 the official specification is around 45 for TRO. 

There are no official specifications for obtaining a minimum level of engine cleanliness from a fuel. However, all additives in France are subject to approval by the Direction des Carburants (DHYCA), with the objective of having data that prove, first of all, the product to be harmless, and second, the product s effectiveness. Likewise, the automotive manufacturers, in establishing their specifications, set the minimum performance to be obtained by the fuel with regard to engine cleanliness. 

The procedure most commonly employed (NF M 07-047 or ASTM D 2274) Is to age the diesel fuel for 16 hours while bubbling oxygen into it at 95°C. The gums and sediment obtained are recovered by filtration and weighed. There is no official French specification regarding oxidation stability however, in their own specifications, manufacturers have set a maximum value of 1.5 mg/100 ml. 

The flash point of a petroleum liquid is the temperature to which it must be brought so that the vapor evolved burns spontaneously in the presence of a flame. For diesel fuel, the test is conducted according to a closed cup technique (NF T 60-103). The French specifications stipulate that the flash point should be between 55°C and 120°C. That constitutes a safety criterion during storage and distribution operations. Moreover, from an official viewpoint, petroleum products are classified in several groups according to their flash points which should never be exceeded. 

Moreover, it is useful to distinguish between the standards prepared by the official standards organizations and the professional standards. The former s mission is to ensure that the conditions of the consensus of the widest assemblage of interested parties are followed. The professional standards are prepared by recognized professional organizations but limit the consensus to only the participating organizations. 

In the same way that standards either can be limited to a consensus between professionals or they can be official, the standards organizations can be either professional or official. 

In spite of their authority and international prestige, these institutes are not the official standards organizations, and participation in their work is restricted to those who have paid the membership fees. 

The accreditation of a standard is an official act (signed by the Ministry of Industry in France). To prepare standards, governments have mandated private organizations which are responsible for continuously following the rules to reach a mciximum consensus. There is only one such organization per country. They are, moreover, grouped at the European and international levels. 

At the international level, the official organization is the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and its counterpart for the electrical industries, the lEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). 

Among the official standards organizations are in France, AFNOR (Association Frangaise de Normalisation)-, in the United Kingdom, BSI (British... 

To allow objectivity of the findings, ElA s are usually carried out by independent specialists or organisations. It will involve not only scientific experts, but also require consultation with official and representative bodies such as the government ministries for the environment, fisheries, food, agriculture, and local water authorities. In activities which may impact on local population (terminals, refineries, access roads, land developments) local representatives of the inhabitants may be consulted, and the public affairs function... 

The suggested method is appropriately implemented at the practice. The cost and working hours of unit measurement of it is less than of any alternative method of destructive test and with respect to the authenticity inspection of Stress-Deformation the given method is inferior only to destructive testing. The method was successfully implemented while evaluation of service life of main pipe-lines sections and pressure vessels as well. Data of method and instrument are used as official data equally with ultrasonic, radiation, magnetic particles methods, adding them by the previously non available information about " fatigue " metalwork structure. 

Defects intervening in pieces are listed by official norms. For segmentation needs, we have divided the set of defects in two categories, volumetric and linear defects. A defect is considered as linear if its width is twice inferior to the size of the grain, all the rest are considered as volumetric defects. 

Harmonised standards are technical specifications adopted by one of the European standards organisations following a mandate issued by the European Commission on which Member States were consulted. When published by the Commission in the Official Journal of the European Communities, the hamionised standards give presumption of confomiity to the essential requirements they specify. This means that manufacturers applying these standards do not have to demonstrate the compliance of the manufactured products with the relevant requirements of the directive. 

As referred to above, most of the modules involve the intervention of a third party, the so-called notified bodies. These bodies are designated by Member States as being competent to carry out the certification tasks for which they are notified. As a precondition for their notification they must fulfil the minimum criteria which are set out in the relevant directives. These conditions vary from independence, impartiality and professional integrity, to technical competence, possession of or access to necessary facilities and to liability insurance. Once notified, the Commission publishes a list of all notified bodies in the Official Journal, It is worth noting that there is free competition between notified bodies and that manufacturers can make their own choice from all notified bodies notified within the European Union. 

As a precondition for notification of the recognised third party organisations the Member States shall apply the same criteria as for notified bodies and the Commission shall, as in the case of notified bodies, publish the references of theses organisations in the Official Journal of the European Communities. 

The System of accreditation is a mechanism that ensures official recognition that calibration or testing laboratory has right to perform testing of measuring devices, specific testing or specific types of testing. 

The LMTO method [58, 79] can be considered to be the linear version of the KKR teclmique. According to official LMTO historians, the method has now reached its third generation [79] the first starting with Andersen in 1975 [58], the second connnonly known as TB-LMTO. In the LMTO approach, the wavefimction is expanded in a basis of so-called muffin-tin orbitals. These orbitals are adapted to the potential by constmcting them from solutions of the radial Scln-ddinger equation so as to fomi a minimal basis set. Interstitial properties are represented by Hankel fiinctions, which means that, in contrast to the LAPW teclmique, the orbitals are localized in real space. The small basis set makes the method fast computationally, yet at the same time it restricts the accuracy. The localization of the basis fiinctions diminishes the quality of the description of the wavefimction in die interstitial region. 

The Cahn-Ingold-Prelog (CIP) rules stand as the official way to specify chirahty of molecular structures [35, 36] (see also Section 2.8), but can we measure the chirality of a chiral molecule. Can one say that one structure is more chiral than another. These questions are associated in a chemist s mind with some of the experimentally observed properties of chiral compounds. For example, the racemic mixture of one pail of specific enantiomers may be more clearly separated in a given chiral chromatographic system than the racemic mixture of another compound. Or, the difference in pharmacological properties for a particular pair of enantiomers may be greater than for another pair. Or, one chiral compound may rotate the plane of polarized light more than another. Several theoretical quantitative measures of chirality have been developed and have been reviewed elsewhere [37-40]. 

Aluminium was also the accepted spelling in the U.S. until 1925, at which time the American Chemical Society officially decided to use the name aluminum thereafter in their publications.

During this time I suggested (in 1972) naming the cations of carbon compounds carbocations (because the corresponding anions were named carbanions ). To my surprise, the name stuck and was later officially adopted by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry for general use. 

This method is a little labor-intensive because it involves a lot of distilling, but it is so easy to do and the results are absolutely predictable The production of MD-P2P or P2P using this method has been previously described [8,9] except that Strike is going to describe the little things. You know, those little bullshit things that never seem to work their way into official accounts but always cause a lot of stress to the novice chemist. 

Likewise, the nomenclature of neocyanines would not present any more difficulties if these suggested rules were followed, but it is not our task to apply them until official nomenclature is modified.

Fehling s solution (sugar detection and estimation) (a) Copper sulfate solution dissolve 34.639 g of CUSO4 5H2O in water and dilute to 500 mL. (b) Alkaline tartrate solution dissolve 173 g of rochelle salts (KNaC40g dHjO) and 125 g of KOH in water and dilute to 500 mL. Equal volumes of the two solutions are mixed just prior to use. The Methods of the Assoc, of Official Agricultural Chemists give 50 g of NaOH in place of the 125 g KOH. 

The pore systems of solids are of many different kinds. The individual pores may vary greatly both in size and in shape within a given solid, and between one solid and another. A feature of especial interest for many purposes is the width w of the pores, e.g. the diameter of a cylindrical pore, or the distance between the sides of a slit-shaped pore. A convenient classification of pores according to their average width originally proposed by Dubinin and now officially adopted by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry is summarized in Table 1.4. 

These data are adapted from Steiner, E. H. Planning and Analysis of Results of Collaborative Tests published in Statistical Manual of the Association of Official Analytical Chemists, Association of Official Analytical Chemists Washington, DC, 1975.

The design of a collaborative test must provide the additional information needed to separate the effect of random error from that due to systematic errors introduced by the analysts. One simple approach, which is accepted by the Association of Official Analytical Chemists, is to have each analyst analyze two samples, X and Y, that are similar in both matrix and concentration of analyte. The results obtained by each analyst are plotted as a single point on a two-sample chart, using the result for one sample as the x-coordinate and the value for the other sample as the -coordinate. ...
