Reduced potential

Better well control allows at-balance or even underbalanced drilling, resulting in higher penetration rates and reduced potential for formation damage. 

The reduced potential matrix elements which couple the internal states n and j are... 

Polypropylene sheet has been used most extensively however, thermoplastic polyester, polycarbonate, and nylon versions are available (see Elastomers, synthetic Polycarbonates). Continuous strand glass fiber mat is the typical reinforcement. The limited number of sheet suppHers reduces potential for competitive pricing. 

Clean boiler water surfaces reduce potential concentration sites for caustic. Deposit control treatment programs, such as those based on chelants and synthetic polymers, can help provide clean surfaces. 

The principal route of macroHde excretion is by way of the Hver. Effects of macrohdes on hepatic metaboHc enzymes, particularly cytochrome P-450, have been studied in order to identify and reduce potential interference with metaboHsm of other dmgs (21—23,444—447). Several macrohdes are initially... 

The goals of the F EI are to raise awareness of loss potential and identify ways to reduce potential severity and potential dollar loss in a cost-effective manner. TLe index number has significance as a comparison and in calculations to estimate the maximum probable property damage (MPPD). It also provides a method for measuring tbe effect of outage (plant being shut down) on the business. It is easy for users to get credible results with a small amount of training.

The processes of cathodic protection can be scientifically explained far more concisely than many other protective systems. Corrosion of metals in aqueous solutions or in the soil is principally an electrolytic process controlled by an electric tension, i.e., the potential of a metal in an electrolytic solution. According to the laws of electrochemistry, the reaction tendency and the rate of reaction will decrease with reducing potential. Although these relationships have been known for more than a century and although cathodic protection has been practiced in isolated cases for a long time, it required an extended period for its technical application on a wider scale. This may have been because cathodic protection used to appear curious and strange, and the electrical engineering requirements hindered its practical application. The practice of cathodic protection is indeed more complex than its theoretical base.

Because there is no clearance volume expansion, as in the reciprocating compressor, the volumetric efficiency is a function of the rotor slip. This is the internal leakage from the higher pressure to the lower pressure side, reducing potential volume capacity of the compressor.

Consider the pyruvic acid system in Scheme XV. Let HA and A represent pyruvic acid and pyruvate, respectively, and suppose the system is buffered. At a pH well below the pX of HA, a single polarographic wave characteristic of the reduction of HA is observed. At a pH well above the pX, a wave (at a much more reducing potential) is observed that is characteristic of the reduction of A. ... 

The effect of the backfill is to lower the circuit resistance and thus reduce potential loss due to the environment. The additive resistances of the anode/backfill and backfill/soil are lower than the single anode/soil resistance. Backfills attract soil moisture and reduce the resistivity in the area immediately round the anode. Dry backfill expands on wetting, and the package expands to fill the hole in the soil and eliminate voids. 

Data are also available with a-acetylenic aliphatic sulphones, which involve only two steps i.e., saturation of the triple bond without subsequent cleavage of the Caliphalic—S bond, since it is not reactive. However, the introduction of an aromatic ring to the S02 group does not lead, contrary to what is observed with enones, to a potential shift toward less reducing potential values. Thus, the aromatic moiety introduced apparently does not bring any additional conjugation effect but even seems to decrease the activation of the unsaturated bond, as shown by data in Tables 6 and 7 where most of the potentials refer to the same saturated calomel electrode under similar experimental conditions. 

Mechanical compatibilization is accomplished by reducing the size of the dispersed phase. The latter is determined by the balance between drop breakup and coalescence process, which in turn is governed by the type and severity of the stress, interfacial tension between the two phases, and the rheological characteristics of the components [9]. The need to reduce potential energy initiates the agglomeration process, which is less severe if the interfacial tension is small. Addition...

An increase in the fraction of the four-electron reduction pathway at more reducing potentials (Fig. 18.10a, b) may be rationalized within at least two mechanisms. The first is based on the kinetic competition between the release of H2O2 from the ferric-hydroperoxo intermediate [Reaction (18.16) in Fig. 18.11] and its (reversible) reduction to a ferrous-hydroperoxo species, which undergoes rapid 0-0 bond heterolysis (18.13b). Because H2O2 and particularly HO2 are more basic ligands...
