Particulate matter is a complex emission that is classified as either suspended particulate matter, total suspended particulate matter, or simply, particulate matter. For human health purposes, the fraction of particulate matter that has been shown to contribute to respiratory diseases is termed PMio (i.e., particulate matter with sizes less than 10 tim). From a control standpoint, particulate matter can be characterized as follows (1) particle size distribution and (2) particulate matter concentration in the emission (mg/m ). On occasion, physical property descriptions may also be employed when there are specific control applications. 

Apart from chemical composition, an important variable in the description of emulsions is the volume fraction, outer phase. For spherical droplets, of radius a, the volume fraction is given by the number density, n, times the spherical volume, 0 = Ava nl2>. It is easy to show that the maximum packing fraction of spheres is 0 = 0.74 (see Problem XIV-2). Many physical properties of emulsions can be characterized by their volume fraction. The viscosity of a dilute suspension of rigid spheres is an example where the Einstein limiting law is [2]... 

As it has appeared in recent years that many hmdamental aspects of elementary chemical reactions in solution can be understood on the basis of the dependence of reaction rate coefficients on solvent density [2, 3, 4 and 5], increasing attention is paid to reaction kinetics in the gas-to-liquid transition range and supercritical fluids under varying pressure. In this way, the essential differences between the regime of binary collisions in the low-pressure gas phase and tliat of a dense enviromnent with typical many-body interactions become apparent. An extremely useful approach in this respect is the investigation of rate coefficients, reaction yields and concentration-time profiles of some typical model reactions over as wide a pressure range as possible, which pemiits the continuous and well controlled variation of the physical properties of the solvent. Among these the most important are density, polarity and viscosity in a contimiiim description or collision frequency. 

This is the first monograph that was devoted to structure, chemistry and use of zeolites. It reviews zeolite synthesis to 1973, gives a detailed structural description of synthetic and mineral zeolites, illustrates their physical properties and describes applications.

The first step is to have a complete and detailed description of the system, process, or procedure under consideration. This must include physical properties of the materials, operating temperatures and pressures, detailed flow sheets, instmment diagrams of the process, materials of constmction, other detailed design specifications, and so forth. The more detailed and up-to-date this information is, the better the result of the analysis. 

Physical Properties. Some physical properties of alkyl hydroperoxides (in order of increasing carbon content) are Hsted in Table 1 (44). Descriptions of hydroperoxides are given in the chemical Hterature (1,4—6,10,28,43,45). 

Analytical Approaches. Different analytical techniques have been appHed to each fraction to determine its molecular composition. As the molecular weight increases, complexity increasingly shifts the level of analytical detail from quantification of most individual species in the naphtha to average molecular descriptions in the vacuum residuum. For the naphtha, classical techniques allow the isolation and identification of individual compounds by physical properties. Gas chromatographic (gc) resolution allows almost every compound having less than eight carbon atoms to be measured separately. The combination of gc with mass spectrometry (gc/ms) can be used for quantitation purposes when compounds are not well-resolved by gc. 

Inorganic Compounds. Inorganic selenium compounds are similar to those of sulfur and tellurium. The most important inorganic compounds are the selenides, haUdes, oxides, and oxyacids. Selenium oxidation states are —2, 0, +1, +2, +4, and +6. Detailed descriptions of the compounds, techniques, and methods of preparation, and references to original work are available (1—3,5,6—10, 51—54). Some important physical properties of inorganic selenium compounds are Hsted in Table 3. 

The quaHty, ie, level of impurities, of the fats and oils used in the manufacture of soap is important in the production of commercial products. Fats and oils are isolated from various animal and vegetable sources and contain different intrinsic impurities. These impurities may include hydrolysis products of the triglyceride, eg, fatty acid and mono/diglycerides proteinaceous materials and particulate dirt, eg, bone meal and various vitamins, pigments, phosphatides, and sterols, ie, cholesterol and tocopherol as weU as less descript odor and color bodies. These impurities affect the physical properties such as odor and color of the fats and oils and can cause additional degradation of the fats and oils upon storage. For commercial soaps, it is desirable to keep these impurities at the absolute minimum for both storage stabiHty and finished product quaHty considerations. 

Descriptions of sulfuric acid analytical procedures not specified by ASTM are available (32,152). Federal specifications also describe the requited method of analysis. Concentrations of 78 wt % and 93 wt % H2SO4 are commonly measured indirectly by determining specific gravity. Higher acid concentrations are normally determined by titration with a base, or by sonic velocity or other physical property for plant control. Sonic velocity has been found to be quite accurate for strength analysis of both filming and nonfuming acid. 

A number of subdivisions of the maceral groups have been developed and documented by the International Commission on Coal Petrology (14). Table 1 Usts the Stopes-Heeden classification of higher rank coals. Periodic revisions include descriptions of the macerals, submacerals, morphology, physical properties, and chemical characteristics. Theories on the mode of formation of the macerals and their significance in commercial appUcations are also included of Reference 14. 

The classical kinetic theoty of gases treats a system of non-interacting particles, but in real gases there is a short-range interaction which has an effect on the physical properties of gases. The most simple description of this interaction uses the Lennard-Jones potential which postulates a central force between molecules, giving an energy of interaction as a function of the inter-nuclear distance, r.

To develop a terse, broad description of mechanical, physical, and chemical processes in solids, this book is divided into five parts. Part I contains one chapter with introductory material. Part II summarizes aspects of mechanical responses of shock-compressed solids and contains one chapter on materials descriptions and one on experimental procedures. Part III describes certain physical properties of shock-compressed solids with one chapter on such effects under elastic compression and one chapter on effects under elastic-plastic conditions. Part IV describes work on chemical processes in shock-compressed solids and contains three chapters. Finally, Part V summarizes and brings together a description of shock-compressed solids. The information contained in Part II is available in much better detail in other reliable sources. The information in Parts III and IV is perhaps presented best in this book. 

Hydrodynamic volume refers to the combined physical properties of size and shape. Molecules of larger volume have a limited ability to enter the pores and elute the fastest. A molecule larger than the stationary phase pore volume elutes first and defines the column s void volume (Vo). In contrast, intermediate and smaller volume molecules may enter the pores and therefore elute later. As a measure of hydrodynamic volume (size and shape), SE-HPLC provides an approximation of a molecule s apparent molecular weight. For further descriptions of theoretical models and mathematical equations relating to SE-HPLC, the reader is referred to Refs. 2-5. 

The second slop is to obtain all the information about the process that will be needed for a Ihorongh evaluation including but not limited to the process materials used and their physical properties, the chemistry and tlicnnodynamics of the process, a plant layout, and a description of all the equipment used including controls and instrumentation. The last part of the information gathering step nitty be viewed as the preliminary formation of the What If questions. 

The available range of plastics is very wide with a variety of compositions and related properties within any one type description. Even when physical properties and formulation are specified, minor variations in trace additives, release agents, moulding cycles, etc. may have a considerable influence on corrosivity. Table 18.18 can therefore be considered only as a guide and even in this sense much more experimentation is needed to provide the full picture. In the present state of technology precise information is only likely to result from tests carried out on the material of interest various suitable test methods have been described in the literature ...

The present model takes into account how capillary, friction and gravity forces affect the flow development. The parameters which influence the flow mechanism are evaluated. In the frame of the quasi-one-dimensional model the theoretical description of the phenomena is based on the assumption of uniform parameter distribution over the cross-section of the liquid and vapor flows. With this approximation, the mass, thermal and momentum equations for the average parameters are used. These equations allow one to determine the velocity, pressure and temperature distributions along the capillary axis, the shape of the interface surface for various geometrical and regime parameters, as well as the influence of physical properties of the liquid and vapor, micro-channel size, initial temperature of the cooling liquid, wall heat flux and gravity on the flow and heat transfer characteristics.

The structure of CaB contains bonding bands typical of the boron sublattice and capable of accommodating 20 electrons per CaB formula, and separated from antibonding bands by a relatively narrow gap (from 1.5 to 4.4 eV) . The B atoms of the B(, octahedron yield only 18 electrons thus a transfer of two electrons from the metal to the boron sublattice is necessary to stabilize the crystalline framework. The semiconducting properties of M B phases (M = Ca, Sr ", Ba, Eu, Yb ) and the metallic ones of M B or M B5 phases (Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd ", Gd , Tb , Dy and Th ) are directly explained by this model . The validity of these models may be questionable because of the existence and stability of Na,Ba, Bft solid solutions and of KB, since they prove that the CaB -type structure is still stable when the electron contribution of the inserted atom is less than two . A detailed description of physical properties of hexaborides involves not only the bonding and antibonding B bands, but also bonds originating in the atomic orbitals of the inserted metal . ... 

If we calculate the H values for various water temperatures, we see results as shown in Table 4.4. The importance of the information content encoded in the H value in these studies is that it is a single-numerical description of the system, water in this case, that can be used to relate to physical property changes occurring at different temperatures. This approach can be used to evaluate a property change such as the freezing point depression. 

The subjects of structure and bonding in metal isocyanide complexes have been discussed before 90, 156) and will not be treated extensively here. A brief discussion of this subject is presented in Section II of course, special emphasis is given to the more recent information which has appeared. Several areas of current study in the field of transition metal-isocyanide complexes have become particularly important and are discussed in this review in Section III. These include the additions of protonic compounds to coordinated isocyanides, probably the subject most actively being studied at this time insertion reactions into metal-carbon bonded species nucleophilic reactions with metal isocyanide complexes and the metal-catalyzed a-addition reactions. Concurrent with these new developments, there has been a general expansion of descriptive chemistry of isocyanide-metal complexes, and further study of the physical properties of selected species. These developments are summarized in Section IV. 

Turbulent inlet conditions for LES are difficult to obtain since a time-resolved flow description is required. The best solution is to use periodic boundary conditions when it is possible. For the remaining cases, there are algorithms for simulation of turbulent eddies that fit the theoretical turbulent energy distribution. These simulated eddies are not a solution of the Navier-Stokes equations, and the inlet boundary must be located outside the region of interest to allow the flow to adjust to the correct physical properties. 

Virtual prototyping will be the future method to develop new reactors and chemical processes. With a good description of the fluid dynamics, and mass and heat transfer in the reactor, the specific chemical reactions and physical properties of the fluid can be changed and a process optimization can be performed in virtual...
