Visual imaging of cell population in vitro) using low signal-to-noise ratio phase contrast microscopy can enable systematic monitoring measurements of cell quality, development and apoptosis. In the present study, microscopic evaluations as seen in Fig. 11 did not reveal any significant alteration in cellular morphology upto 1000 ng/ml.

Outdoor tyre stockpiles also represent a breeding ground for insects and rodents. Rainwater collects in the open space of the impermeable tyres, and, together with trapped windblown pollen and dust, creates an ideal environment for the development of mosquito larvae. The warm, dark recesses of the tyres also provide a supportive environment for rodent habitation. Both rodents and mosquitoes pose a potential threat to human health due to their ability to transmit various diseases (Ohio Air Quality Development Authority 1991). 

Pulp and paper mills. The second largest consumers of tyre fuel ate pulp and paper mills (Table 1, Fig. 4). Because the production of pulp and paper is an energy-intensive process, these facilities typically have their own boilers and turbines to meet electrical needs. Pulp and paper mills use TDF instead of whole tyres to supplement wood waste as fuel. The wood waste, also referred to as hog fuel, consists of chipped bark and other unusable tree parts (Barlaz et al. 1993). The use of TDF helps maintain constant combustion conditions in the stoker grate boiler system, which are not easily achieved using wood waste alone (Ohio Air Quality Development Authority 1991). The fuel-feeding process of these types of boilers, however, requires that the TDF be almost entirely free of wires (Jones et al. 1990). This requirement increases the costs of fuel significantly. 

Electric utility and industrial boilers. The use of tyres in electric utility and industrial boilers comprises 26% of the market for tyre fuel (Fig. 4). Although whole tyres can be used in some industrial boilers, most facilities combust TDF mixed with coal in a variety of concentrations ranging from as little as 2 to as much as 40% TDF by weight (e.g., Tesla 1994 EPA 1997 Ohio Air Quality Development Authority 1991). There are many different types of boilers that can utilize TDF combustion to augment energy generation (see Amari et al. 1999), the most popular of which is the cyclone-fired boiler. This type of boiler typically requires TDF pieces to be smaller than 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm, and the tyre chips must be de-wired prior to combustion (Ohio Air Quality Development Authority... 

Uncontrolled open fires in tyre dumps may burn for several months (e.g., Rhinehard tyre fire in Winchester, Virginia), generating many hazardous products of incomplete combustion, which are released directly into the atmosphere (EPA 1997). Owing to safety concerns and other factors (e.g., meteorological conditions, fire-fighting activities), it is difficult to collect air samples from the smoke plumes of these fires. The available field data revealed potentially hazardous levels of several PAHs and CO, as well as relatively high concentrations of Pb and Zn in such plumes (Ohio Air Quality Development Authority 1991 EPA 1997). 

Besides these laboratory experiments there are several emission studies on controlled tyre co-combustion in large-scale industrial facilities, including cement and lime kilns, utility boilers, and pulp and paper mills (Ohio Air Quality Development Authority 1991 EPRI 1991 EPA...

The project report summarizes the outcome of each activity performed to develop or maintain the computer system and the verification that critical checkpoints were reached during the entire development process. It also verifies that the quality development procedures identified in the project plan were complied with. 

API is not an approval body but certifies lubricant quality, developing its Service Symbol (Fig. 17.1) in 1983, issuing licenses to oil companies for promotion of their lubricants. The symbol s centre circle shows the lubricant SAE viscosity grade, the outer ring upper half contains the API performance classification (only current performance qualities shown, obsolete performance levels may not be used). The outer ring lower half indicates an energy-conserving or fuel economy standard. API s...

A thermoplastic modifier in styrene offering excellent shrinkage control and superior surface quality, developed for those applications where chemical thickening is both unnecessaiy and undesirable. Formulated for use as a B-side carrier in SMC systems, but also effective in wet-moulding and pultrusion.

Concerning the first aspect, it is clear that a process of quality development cannot effectively respond to oitr problem ate the fimctionalities correct A priori a formal approach covering the entire development cycle may respond favorably (from the upstream functional program specifications all the way to the code interpreted by the target machine). It is in this spirit that the MEI module was designed in 1993.
