The cost of transportation has an important effect on the marketabiUty of chemicals. For that reason, transportation, along with numerous other factors, is often a significant consideration in determining the location of chemical production faciUties. In addition, convenient and economical access to water and rail transportation and the interstate highway system, as well as proximity to raw materials and markets, may influence the choice of warehouse and terminal sites for storage and redistribution of chemical products (see Plant location).

The early nineteenth century saw the beginning of factory production systems, particularly in the cotton mills of Lancashire and woolen mills in Yorkshire. Accidents arising from the use or misuse of steam plant, particularly boilers, became common and led not only to damage and destruction to property but also to death and bodily injury to persons in or about the scene of the explosions. 

AS of this writing, 100% inspection by NAA of small arms primers in an actual production loading plant has not been implemented, nor is it contemplated in the near future. Technical problems exist related to coupling the present state-of-the-art nuclear components with the high production rates for the primers, namely, tens of units per sec per automatic loading line. The high intensity of the neutron source and the complexity of the detection system required detracts from the utility of the method in a plant environment where simplicity and safety of operation are of paramount importance. Nevertheless, the technical feasibility of the method has been demonstrated by the AMMRC study and future developments in nuclear activation hardware may ultimately make this non-destructive inspection for production primers more viable... 

Natural pigment production for food coloration includes the entire spectrum of biotechnologies. For example, biological production of carotenoid pigments has medical implications because carotenoids are nutritive (pro-vitamin A), antioxidant, and photoprotective. Carotenoids are produced alternately in agricultural systems (plants), industrial bioreactors (bacterial and fungi), and marine systems (cyanobacteria and algae).

In developing countries, additional advantages of using CWs can be obtained. They may provide economic benefits and could encourage small communities to maintain natural wastewater treatment systems. The production of plant biomass can provide economic returns to communities through production of biogas, animal feed, compost, and fiber for paper according to the type of pollutant.46... 

Brazilian cement plants are relatively modem due to the country s more recent industrialization in comparison with many other countries. For example, the average energy consumption per tons of cement produced in Brazil is 112 kWh/t, while in the United States this is around 140 kWh/t. The efforts of companies in the sector have achieved significant progress in terms of more efficient production systems with lower energy consumption. At the same time, the use of additives mixed with clinker, such as blast furnace slag, also has helped reduce C02 emissions per tonne of cement, because this pollutant is formed during the production of clinker. 

The facility considered in the industrial case study is a pharmaceuticals production plant, which produces a wide variety of consumer products, e.g. shampoos and creams, and female sanitary products. The plant was chosen due to the fact that production was carried out in batch mode. In a year the plant uses on average 90000 m3 of water, with approximately 60-70% of this discarded as effluent. An on-site treatment facility pre-treats wastewater produced from the site to a level where the water can be discharged into the municipal water system. 

Extraction of PHA from plants is likely to be a major factor affecting the production cost of PHA from crops and, therefore, the economic viability of this approach. In contrast to production of PHA from bacterial fermentation, where the production system is designed to produce only PHA, an agricultural production of PHA is likely to be most viable only through the recovery of not only PHA but also all other useful components of the harvested crop, i.e., oil, proteins, and carbohydrates. This fact, combined with the lower level of PHA accumulation in plants in comparison to micro-organism, is likely to make PHA recovery from plants a challenging task.
