Space Availability

Space available for installation of accessories required for the heating method chosen for the equipments. [Pg.229]


A knock out vessel may on the other hand be followed by a variety of dehydrating systems depending upon the space available and the characteristics of the mixture. On land a continuous dehydration tank such as a wash tank may be employed. In this type of vessel crude oil enters the tank via an inlet spreader and water droplets fall out of the oil as it rises to the top of the tank. Such devices can reduce the water content to less than 2%. [Pg.247]

Drum Filters. The rotary dmm filter, also borrowed from vacuum filtration, makes relatively poor use of the space available in the pressure vessel, and the filtration areas and capacities of such filters cannot possibly match those of the disk pressure filters. In spite of this disadvantage, however, the pressure dmm filter has been extensively developed. [Pg.406]

Clearly in the limited space available it would not be possible to include all relevant references. Generally, references to patents have been omitted since it is frequently difficult to abstract meaningful information from patent literature, and references to communications have been omitted unless the work is particularly new or experimental details are included. In addition, where several references contain similar methodology and/or results, only... [Pg.157]

Considerations of reader interest, space availability, the system or systems of units employed, copyright considerations, etc., have all influenced the revision of material in previous editions for the present edition. Reference is made at numerous places to various specialized works and also, when appropriate, to more general works. A listing of general works may he useful to readers in need of further information. [Pg.50]

Location and space available (urban areas, sensitive equipment around, limited space. . . )... [Pg.1117]

The installed capit investment is about 375 per pallet for a 5000-paUet system. A characteristic of drive-in, drive-through, and flow racks is that, at any one point in time, only one product can occupy a given storage lane. Products are not mixed because of the complications that this practice presents in inventoiy management. In any event, there is seldom any need to mix products in the chemical industry because products are made in lots, blends, etc., and a storage lane is ordinarily designed to accommodate either a complete lot or some fraction of a lot. The result is that the total storage space available rarely is completely used. This is a problem that aisle racks... [Pg.1980]

Containers To a large extent, the types and capacities of the containers used depend on the characteristics of the solid wastes to be collected, the collection frequency, and the space available for the placement of containers. [Pg.2235]

Equipment Selection Criteria and Guidelines A number of factors should be considered in order to determine when to select a blowdown drum, cyclone separator, or quench tank to handle a multiphase stream from a relief device. Among these are the plot plan space available, the operating limitations of each type, and the physicochemical properties of the stream. [Pg.2295]

Those countries apart, if there were much more space available I could outline research institutions for materials science in the many European countries that possess them, in India, China and Korea, in Canada, Brazil, Israel. The fact that I do not implies no disrespect for the many fine experts in those lands. [Pg.520]

The time has come to draw together the threads of what has gone before. MSE is a huge domain again and again I have had to warn the reader that I could only scratch the surface of some theme in the space available to me, and still I have covered more than 560 pages with a combination of history and depiction. [Pg.539]

The use of tracers for airflow measurement in ventilation ducts is not very common. There are several reasons for this. Compared to other flow measurement methods, tracers require more complicated equipment, skilled personnel, and are more expensive. There are, however, situations when conventional measurement methods are not applicable. For instance, if the space available is small, and hence the flow meter cannot be installed, or if no space is free to carry out traversing measurements, the use of a tracer might be an alternative. [Pg.1166]

Root cause 2 The cramped, confined space available made it difficult to verify that the blank had been correctly fitted... [Pg.299]

The ability of a GC column to theoretically separate a multitude of components is normally defined by the capacity of the column. Component boiling point will be an initial property that determines relative component retention. Superimposed on this primary consideration is then the phase selectivity, which allows solutes of similar boiling point or volatility to be differentiated. In GC X GC, capacity is now defined in terms of the separation space available (11). As shown below, this space is an area determined by (a) the time of the modulation period (defined further below), which corresponds to an elution property on the second column, and (b) the elution time on the first column. In the normal experiment, the fast elution on the second column is conducted almost instantaneously, so will be essentially carried out under isothermal conditions, although the oven is temperature programmed. Thus, compounds will have an approximately constant peak width in the first dimension, but their widths in the second dimension will depend on how long they take to elute on the second column (isothermal conditions mean that later-eluting peaks on 2D are broader). In addition, peaks will have a variance (distribution) in each dimension depending on... [Pg.81]

Rotational speed of shaft and peripheral speeds of seal. Mechanical limitations—dimensions of space required versus space available, shaft deflection and whip, shaft end play, shaft diameter, and maintenance. Miscellaneous factors—cost, allowable by-pass or out-leakage, allowable contamination of gas with air, inert gas, oil, and other fluid. [Pg.470]

To understand the mathematics, consider a large empty space into which a number of production units are to be placed, and assume that the major variable to be optimized is the cost of transporting materials between them. If the manufacturing process is essentially a flow-line operation, then the order in which units should be placed is clear (from the point of view of transport costs), and the problem is simply to fit them into the space available. In a job-shop, where materials are flowing between many or all the production units, the decision is more difficult. All the potential combinations of units and locations... [Pg.70]

Depending upon the required duty and the site, units may be shop assembled or of modular construction. Site-erected units may be designed to have their main components arranged to fit in with the space available. [Pg.353]

It is impossible to generalize about types of filter to be used. Selection depends on the system, the rate of contamination build-up and the space available. However, a common arrangement is to have a full-flow filter unit before the pump with a bypass filter at some other convenient part of the system. Many industrial systems working below 2000psi can tolerate particles in the order of 25-50 microns with no serious effects on either valves or pumps. [Pg.865]

For amorphous polymers above the T, i.e. in the flexible and rubbery states there is more space available through which diffusing molecules may pass, and so these materials show comparatively high diffusion rates with diffusing fluids. [Pg.931]
