Another furnace that does not require fuel preparation is the stoker boiler, which was used by New York State Electric Gas Corporation (NYSEG) in its TDE tests. At NYSEG, the stoker boiler, which has a 1649°C (3000°E) flame temperature (as does the cyclone boiler), has routinely blended low quaUty coal, and more recently, wood chips with its standard coal to reduce fuel costs and improve combustion efficiency. In the tire-chip tests, NYSEG burned approximately 1100 t of tire chips (smaller than 5x5 cm) mixed with coal and monitored the emissions. The company determined that the emissions were similar to those from burning coal alone. In a second test-bum of 1900 t of TDE, magnetic separation equipment removed metal from the resulting ash, so that it could be recycled as a winter traction agent for roadways.

There has been not only gi owth m the total number of electric motors (more standard appliances in use), but also a proliferation in their use for new, novel applications. Both trends will continue to increase demand for the electricity to run electric motors. In the United States, electric motors arc responsible for consuming more than half of all electricity, and for the industrial sector alone, close to two-thirds. Since the cost of the electricity to power these motors is enormous (estimated at more than 90 billion a year), research is focused on finding ways to increase the energy efficiency of motors and motor systems. 

October. The pioneering firm of United States Electric Illuminating Company starts up South Carolina s first central station for incandescent electric lighting one month after Thomas Edison opened his central station on New York City s Pearl Street. In the following years, U.S. Electric becomes one of Edison s main competitors. 

Tye [38] explained that separator tortuosity is a key property determining the transient response of a separator (and batteries are used in a non steady-state mode) steady-state electrical measurements do not reflect the influence of tortuosity. He recommended that the distribution of tortuosity in separators be considered some pores may have less tortuous paths than others. He showed mathematically that separators with identical average tortuosities and porosities can be distinguished by their unsteady-state behavior if they have different distributions of tortuosity.

In electrochemical kinetics, the concept of the electrode potential is employed in a more general sense, and designates the electrical potential difference between two identical metal leads, the first of which is connected to the electrode under study (test, working or indicator electrode) and the second to the reference electrode which is in a currentless state. Electric current flows, of course, between the test electrode and the third, auxiliary, electrode. The electric potential difference between these two electrodes includes the ohmic potential difference as discussed in Section 5.5.2. 

In the United States, electrical and electronic appliances, when old and considered to be wastes, are sent to sanitary landfill sites for dismantling, separation, resource recovery, and disposal. Commercial companies are getting formed for the waste handling, packaging, transportation, resource recovery, and disposition operations, aiming at profit-making.1-3 5-11... 

As stated before, volatile carbon % is considered to be one of the most important parameters of hydroliquefaction. Also a fairly good linear relationship between the volatile carbon % in coal and low temperature tar yield from coal is found in Morwell brown coals, based on the data from the State Electricity Commission of Victoria (SECV) in Australia, as shown in Fig.9 Therefore, the low temperature tar yield is also estimated to be an important parameter. In addition, the color tone of brown coal (lithotypes) is shown in this figure. From this figure, it is observed that both volatile carbon % and low temperature tar yield are in a fairly good relation to the color tone of brown coal. Thus, as proposed by the Australian researchers, the color tone of brown coal is considered to be an important parameter. 

Victorian brown coals (Yallourn, Morwell) used here and their data on coal characteristics were offered by the Herman Research Laboratory of the State Electricity Commission of Victoria, to whom the authors wish to express their appreciation. In addition, they wish to thank Nissho-Iwai Co. Ltd. who kindly acted as intermediary with respect to Victorian brown coals studied.

Fig. 16.3 Simulation of transmission spectrum for a four resonator array. FDTD simulation showing the steady state electric field distributions when the device is excited at the (a) resonant wavelength and (b) nonresonant wavelength. Note that the color levels in this image are scaled to the maximum field intensity in each image not to each other. The field levels in (b) are roughly of 20 times greater magnitude than those shown in (a), (c) Output spectrum for a device consisting of a waveguide with four evanescently coupled side cavities adjacent to it. Here each resonator consists of a cavity with four holes on either side. Reprinted from Ref. 37 with permission. 2008 Optical Society of America...

The complicated topic of solid-state electrical conductivity is well described in Solid State Chemistry and its Applications, A. R. West, Wiley, Chichester, 1984, although it does not explicitly discuss sensors. Those wanting more depth should look at Transition Metal Oxides, P. A. Cox, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1992, which provides a readable account of the conduction of ions and electrons through solids.

Figure 27. Schematic for solid-state electrical measurements with ultrathin polymer separators electrodeposited onto planar indium—tin oxide (ITO) or Au substrates. The top electrode makes a soft contact with the polymer by slow evaporation of Au or direct contact with a liquid metal (either Hg or Gain eutectic) using a micrometer-controlled syringe to control the approach to contact. Measurements are made in an argon-filled glovebox to minimize effects of O2 and H2O.

Although the literature on electrodeposited electroactive and passivating polymers is vast, surprisingly few studies exist on the solid-state electrical properties of such films, with a focus on systems derived from phenolic monomers, - and apparently none exist on the use of such films as solid polymer electrolytes. To characterize the nature of ultrathin electrodeposited polymers as dielectrics and electrolytes, solid-state electrical measurements are made by electrodeposition of pofy(phenylene oxide) and related polymers onto planar ITO or Au substrates and then using a two-electrode configuration with a soft ohmic contact as the top electrode (see Figure 27). Both dc and ac measurements are taken to determine the electrical and ionic conductivities and the breakdown voltage of the film.
