A broad comparison of the main types of processes, the strength and quaUty of phosphoric acid, and the form and quaUty of by-product calcium sulfate are summarized in Table 7. Because the dihydrate process is the most widely used, the quaUty of its acid and calcium sulfate and its P2O3 recovery are taken as reference for performance comparisons. Illustrative flow diagrams of the principal variations in process types have been pubUshed (39). Numerous other variations in process details ar also used (40—42). The majority of plants use a dihydrate process and some of these have production capacity up to 2100 of P2O3 per day. 

Process details may be summarized powder sizes are fine (usually < 20 Ilm) low (generally < 69 MPa (10,000 psi)) injection pressure low (ca I49°C) mol ding temperature shrinkage (molded part to finished size) typically 20% final part densities are usually 95—98% + of maximum pore-free density and ductility is exceptionally high, elongation values are > 30%. 

The third difference is that many process details are relatively uncertain when a plant is designed. For example, iaert loading for vacuum jets is rarely known to within 50%. Although the first two differences are negative, the third provides a unique opportunity to measure the tme need and revise the system accordingly.

More than 95% of current carbon fiber production for advanced composite appHcations is based on the thermal conversion of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) or pitch precursors to carbon or graphite fibers. Generally, the conversion of PAN or pitch precursor to carbon fiber involves similar process steps fiber formation, ie, spinning, stabilization to thermoset the fiber, carbonization—graphitization, surface treatment, and sizing. Schematic process flow diagrams are shown in Eigure 4. However, specific process details differ. 

This article is an iatroduction and survey that states the fundamental principles and definitions of catalysis, demonstrates the unity of the subject, and places it ia an appHed perspective. The selection of iadustrial catalytic processes discussed has been made for the sake of ikustrating principles and representative characteristics of catalysis and catalytic processes. Details of the processes are given ia numerous other articles ia the Eniyclopedia.

The protective value of a phosphate coating is enhanced by a dip or rinse in an acid chromate solution. Joint Service Specification DEF-29 makes such a rinse mandatory for steel parts treated by an accelerated process, and optional after treatment by a non-accelerated process. Details of rinses are given in Section 15.2 (Table 15.10, p. 15 30).

Because melts have different properties and there are many ways to control processes, detailed factual predictions of final output are difficult to arrive. Research and hands-on operation have been directed mainly at explaining the behavior of melts or plastics like with other materials (steel, glass, and so on). Modem equipment and controls are overcoming some of this unpredictability. Ideally, processes and equipment should be designed to take advantage of the novel properties of plastics rather than to overcome them.

Equation (3-325), along with the fact that Y(t) has zero mean and is gaussian, completely specifies Y(t) as a random process. Detailed expressions for the characteristic function of the finite order distributions of Y(t) can be calculated by means of Eq. (3-271). A straightforward, although somewhat tedious, calculation of the characteristic function of the finite-order distributions of the gaussian Markov process defined by Eq. (3-218) now shows that these two processes are in fact identical, thus proving our assertion. 

Tlie anhyd salt is obtained when samples are recrystd from w above 53° below this temp a monohydrate is obtained (see below). The pure salt is best obtained on a lab scale by dissolving pure Na carbonate in a slight excess of dil aq perchloric ac, the soln partly evapd, cooled to 50°, the solid centrifuged off, and dried in a current of air at 250°. Similar results were obtained starting with pure Na chloride (Ref 2). On a coml scale it is prepd by the electrolysis of Na chlorate (see Vol 2, C197-R). Processing details and economics of the prepn are given in Refs 5 11. Coned solns are used, and modern plants use continuous electrolytic cells. In 1960 prodn was estimated to be ca 10000 tons/year at a cost of 17.56 /lb (Ref 11, p 87)... 

French researchers provided an alternative to the tartrazine synthetic colorant (E 102), valorizing a phloridzine oxidation product (POP) generated as a by-product of the cider industry. Phloridzine is a polyphenol specific to apples and shows good antioxidant capacity. When apples are pressed to yield juice, phloridzine, oxygen, and polyphenoloxidase enzyme combine to form POP. This brilliant yellow natural colorant with nuances dependent on pH level can be incorporated easily into water-based foods such as beverages (juices, syrups) and confectionery creams because it is stable during production processes. Details about the specific formulations of these colorants are presented in Section 5.1. 

The penultimate categorization of the chemical precipitation processes detailed in this chapter is reduction. The process basically involves electron transfer from different ions. The reductive precipitation may be either homogeneous (which may be ionic or non-ionic), or heterogeneous (which may be electrochemical or electrolytic). Electrolytic processes are described in Chapter 6, and no account of these need be given here. 

The n-butyraldehyde is treated with a 2 per cent w/w aqueous sodium hydroxide and undergoes an aldol condensation at a conversion efficiency of 90 per cent. The product of this reaction, 2-ethylhexanal, is separated and then reduced to 2-ethylhexanol by hydrogen in the presence of a Raney nickel catalyst with a 99 per cent conversion rate. In subsequent stages of the process (details of which are not required), 99.8 per cent of the 2-ethylhexanol is recovered at a purity of 99 per cent by weight. 

The QWASI fugacity model contains expressions for the 15 processes detailed in Figure 2. For each process, a D term is calculated as the rate divided by the prevailing fugacity such that the rate becomes Df as described earlier. The D terms are then grouped and mass balance equations derived.
