Overlooked Sites

From factories and plants, gas munitions and containers had to be transported to the battlefield. For example, from the Edgewood arsenal (Aberdeen Proving Ground) the gas was transported by railroad to docks on the Bush River. Such depots and loading facilities could be expected 

Berlin, Maryland, is another overlooked site. For example, a 1923 contingency plan provided for an estimated strength of 3053 personnel, 3355 gas masks, 500 horse masks, 150 protective suits, 1400 pounds of chloride of lime, 1100 extra canisters, 70 alarm devices, and 80 two-ounce cans of glycerine to be placed at the Berhn Station. This was never implemented but, obviously, this was a significant facility in the eyes of the Chemical Warfare Service (CWS).

The use of in-line filters between injectors and colunm can prevent the accumulation of particulate material on the inlet frit of an analytical column, and can avoid back-pressure problems. A second, and often overlooked, site for filter installation is between the column and the detector. Cartridge-type filtration-units that contain readily changed, 0.2-/i,m filters are commercially available, and they contribute insignificantly to peak broadening. These filters are essential for the prevention of clogged detectors when laboratory-packed columns are used.

Thermodynamic properties such as heats of reaction and heats of formation can be computed mote rehably by ab initio theory than by semiempirical MO methods (55). However, the Hterature of the method appropriate to the study should be carefully checked before a technique is selected. Finally, the role of computer graphics in evaluating quantum mechanical properties should not be overlooked. As seen in Figures 2—6, significant information can be conveyed with stick models or various surfaces with charge properties mapped onto them. Additionally, information about orbitals, such as the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), which ate important sites of reactivity in electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions, can be plotted readily. Figure 7 shows representations of the HOMO and LUMO, respectively, for the antiulcer dmg Zantac. 

A critical but often overlooked aspect of the technical service function is the value of relationships that develop between more senior members of the technical service staff and their coUeagues at customer sites. Professional relationships provide value both to suppHer and customer by virtue of the tmst and respect generated in a successhil technical service interaction, analogous to the types of mutuaUy valuable relationships that can develop between suppHer sales personnel and a customer s purchasing personnel. A more efficient process of gathering and dispersing new and usehil technical information can result from these relationships, because the persons involved work in different environments and are exposed in the course of their work to different external sources of information. 

Step 9.1 Identify the Effluent Discharge Points. Determine the points at which wastewater leaves the site. Wastewater may go to an effluent treatment plant, directly to a public sewer, or directly to a watercourse. One factor that is often overlooked in audits is the use of several discharge points. It is important to identify the location, type, and size of all discharge flows. Identify where flows from different unit operations or process areas contribute to the overall flow. In this way, it is possible to piece together the drainage network for the site. This can lead to startling discoveries of what goes where ... 

It is generally the case that small boiler plants will create less noise than large ones. Nevertheless, due to the practice of siting small boilers close to working areas, the matter of noise must not be overlooked. Noise sources within the boiler house will be from the following ... 

Solids are generally considered chemically inert at room temperatures and the most common-place evidence is often overlooked. That is, solids do not appear to be reactive until they are heated. However, the atoms or ions comprising solids are under constant vibratory motion with the lattice and can "diffuse" from site to site. If vacancies are present, they are continually being "fQled" and "emptied" even at room temperature. Those solids based upon Iron (Fe) undergo continuous oxidation to form a layer of "rust". Thus, solids are not completely stable and are under continuous change over time. 

Another aspect of the GLP requirements that is often overlooked when only electronic systems are used is that, in the event of a system failure, a back-up paper version should be available and reasonably located nearby. For example, should an electronic SOP system fail, it is unlikely that a government inspector will consider one paper copy of the SOP adequate for a large facility that includes held sites, animal rooms, an analytical laboratory, an immunology laboratory, and a clinical pathology laboratory. 

Do not overlook materials that are produced on site, including chemical intermediates. 

In this section we characterize our system only by the pattern of occupations of the sites and overlook the conformational states. Hence, we write... 

Perhaps the most basic and Important part of the techniques In cotton dust sampling Is the process of choosing sampling sites. In the rush to obtain VE results. It Is easy to overlook certain conditions In the workplace. Meaningless data can often be traced to nonrepresentative sites. 

The early siting of monitoring stations in central business districts overlooked the fact that nitric oxide emitted by primary polluters reacts very rapidly with ozone to cause localized decreases in ozone concentration. 

The same modern incinerators equipped with scmbbers, bag-filters, electro-precipitators, secondary combustion chambers, stacks, etc., are equally efficient for disposal of hazardous PCBs, dioxin, USEPA priority pollutants, and so on, if they are properly designed, installed, and managed. Incineration technology is definitely feasible, and should not be overlooked. The only residues left in the incinerators are small amount of ashes containing metals. The metal-containing ashes may be solidified and then disposed of on a landfill site.
