The primary goal of fixer desilvering is to remove silver from the fixer solution. This desilvering occurs at the cathode, and in good desilvering units, it is performed with an efficiency of well above 90%. 

One of the primary goals of current research in the area of tribology is to understand how it is that the kinetic energy of a sliding object is converted into internal energy. These dissipation mechanisms detennine the rate of energy flow from macroscopic motion into the microscopic modes of the system. Numerous mechanisms can be... 

NAMD [7] was born of frustration with the maintainability of previous locally developed parallel molecular dynamics codes. The primary goal of being able to hand the program down to the next generation of developers is reflected in the acronym NAMD Not (just) Another Molecular Dynamics code. Specific design requirements for NAMD were to run in parallel on the group s then recently purchased workstation cluster [8] and to use the fast multipole algorithm [9] for efficient full electrostatics evaluation as implemented in DPMTA [10]. 

Artificial sweeteners are a billion dollar per year industry The primary goal is of course to maxi mize sweetness and minimize calories We II look at the following three sweeteners to give us an over view of the field... 

Once a fusion reaction has begun in a confined plasma, it is planned to sustain it by using the hot, charged-particle reaction products, eg, alpha particles in the case of D—T fusion, to heat other, colder fuel particles to the reaction temperature. If no additional external heat input is required to sustain the reaction, the plasma is said to have reached the ignition condition. Achieving ignition is another primary goal of fusion research. 

Petroleum and its lighter congener, natural gas, are the predominant sources of hydrocarbon raw materials, accounting for over 95% of all such materials. Assuring sources of petroleum and natural gas has become a primary goal of national poHcies all over the world, and undoubtedly was one of the principal justifications for the 1992 Gulf War. 

The primary goals of 1PM are (/) to determine how the life system of the pest needs to be modified to reduce the numbers to tolerable levels, ie, below the economic threshold (2) to apply biological knowledge and current technology to achieve the desired modification, ie, appHed ecology and (2) to devise procedures for pest control compatible with economic and environmental control aspects, ie, economic and social acceptance (9). 

Block copolymers can contain crystalline or amorphous hard blocks. Examples of crystalline block copolymers are polyurethanes (e.g. B.F. Goodrich s Estane line), polyether esters (e.g. Dupont s Hytrel polymers), polyether amides (e.g. Atofina s Pebax grades). Polyurethanes have enjoyed limited utility due to their relatively low thermal stability use temperatures must be kept below 275°F, due to the reversibility of the urethane linkage. Recently, polyurethanes with stability at 350°F for nearly 100 h have been claimed [2]. Polyether esters and polyether amides have been explored for PSA applications where their heat and plasticizer resistance is a benefit [3]. However, the high price of these materials and their multiblock architecture have limited their use. All of these crystalline block copolymers consist of multiblocks with relatively short, amorphous, polyether or polyester mid-blocks. Consequently they can not be diluted as extensively with tackifiers and diluents as styrenic triblock copolymers. Thereby it is more difficult to obtain strong, yet soft adhesives — the primary goals of adding rubber to hot melts. 

OSHA- Occupational Health and Safety Administration The U.S. Occupational Health and Safety Administration, OSHA, is a federal government agency in the U.S. Department of Labor. OSHA s Web site is http //www.osha.gov/. The primary goals of OSHA are to save lives, prevent injuries, and protect the health of America s workers. OSHA employs over 2,000 inspectors to ensure job site safety. OSHA was created by the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Act of 1970. While many see OSHA as an intrusive government agency intent on enforcing arcane rules, the fact is that OSHA saves lives. And if that is not enough... 

When the objective of water treatment is to provide drinking water, then we need to select technologies that are not only the best available, but those that will meet local and national quality standards. The primary goals of a water treatment plant... 

The Severe Accident Policy Statement formulates systematic safety examinations for detection of accident vulnerabilities and implementation of cost-effective changes. The NRC issued Generic Letter 88-20 to implement this plan through IPEs. While the primary goal was the identification of plant vulnerabilities, no definition of vulnerability was provided. Only 4 operators of BWRs identified vulnerabilities and only 16 operators of PWRs did so. Over 500 plant improvements were identified, but few vulnerabilities were. 

In the pure concerted reaction there is no need to invoke the cationic or anionic intermediates in describing the transition state, but it now becomes evident that some deviation from this idealized route may be possible, and then we need a way to comment upon and to measure the extent to which the cationic or anionic character is mixed in in the transition state. This is now widely accomplished with the aid of energy surfaces of the type shown schematically in Fig. 5-19. Depending on the nature of the surface, the reaction path may follow a route far from the diagonal representing the pure concerted reaction, and the primary goal is to identify the location of the transition state on this surface. 

FMO theory was developed at a time when detailed calculations of reaction paths were infeasible. As many sophisticated computational models, and methods for actually locating the TS, have become widespread, the use of FMO arguments for predicting reactivity has declined. The primary goal of computational chemistry, however, is not tc... 

A primary goal of the periodic table is to assist recognition of the ground-state valence electron configuration of each atom, the chief determinant of its chemical properties" ([21], p 5). 

While it may be true that the periodic table is used in chemical education in order to arrive at the electronic configuration of any particular atom, this is surely not a primary goal of the periodic table for chemists in general. The main goal of the periodic table remains as the classification scheme for the properties of the elements, especially as they occur in chemical compounds.9... 

A primary goal of this chapter is to learn how to achieve control over the pH of solutions of acids, bases, and their salts. The control of pH is crucial for the ability of organisms—including ourselves—to survive, because even minor drifts from the optimum value of the pH can cause enzymes to change their shape and cease to function. The information in this chapter is used in industry to control the pH of reaction mixtures and to purify water. In agriculture it is used to maintain the soil at an optimal pH. In the laboratory it is used to interpret the change in pH of a solution during a titration, one of the most common quantitative analytical technique. It also helps us appreciate the basis of qualitative analysis, the identification of the substances and ions present in a sample. 

There is no more important product of higher education than graduates able to think and able to seek and find the truth. There is nothing more important to think about and discuss the truth about than our impacts on the chemistry of our Planet and the consequence of these impacts. Responsible environmental behavior ought to be one of the primary goals of general education. 

One of the primary goals of Earth systems" research is to learn how sensitive global climate... 

The primary goal of scaleup is to maintain acceptable product quahty. Ideally, this will mean making exactly the same product in the large unit as was made in the pilot unit. To this end, it may be necessary to alter the operating conditions in the pilot plant so that product made there can be duplicated upon scaleup. If the pilot plant closely approaches isothermal piston flow, the challenge of maintaining these ideal conditions upon scaleup may be too difficult. The alternative is to make the pilot plant less ideal but more scaleable. 

The primary goal of the work described here is to provide a means whereby specifiers can become implementers that is, to provide automation systems tools (for the specific case of batch polymerizations) allowing process and production experts to design, implement, maintain, and enhance their own "state-of- the-art" control systems. 

One can thus state the primary goal of the approaches summarized in this chapter as follows ...
