Storage technique

Several alternative methods have been considered in order to increase the energy density of natural gas and facilitate its use as a road vehicle fuel. It can be dissolved in organic solvents, contained in a molecular cage (clathrate), and it may be adsorbed in a porous medium. The use of solvents has been tested experimentally but there has been little improvement so far over the methane density obtained by simple compression. Clathrates of methane and water, (methane hydrates) have been widely investigated but seem to offer little advantage over ANG [4]. Theoretical comparison of these storage techniques has been made by Dignam [5]. In practical terms, ANG has shown the most promise so far of these three alternatives to CNG and LNG. 

A number of different open pond snow and ice storage techniques have been suggested. In Ottawa a storage for 90,000 m3 of snow in an abandoned rock quarry (120 x 80 x 9.5 m3, L x W x H), was studied. The mean cooling load was 7,000 kW. A light colored PE plastic tarpaulin was suggested as insulation, with melt water re-circulation for cold extraction. The estimated payback time was 10 years (Morofsky, 1981). 

There has also been work with hydrogen storage in buckyballs or carbon nanotubes. These are microscopic structures fashioned out of carbon. This research indicates a potential storage technique using a combination of chemical and physical containment at very high temperature...

We must emphasize that in this extremely brief introduction to magnetic properties we have only scratched the surface of this wide-ranging topic. Because magnetic properties lie at the heart of most digital data storage techniques, the numerous phenomena associated with magnetism have been the subject of intense worldwide research for decades. The Further Reading section lists several resources that can provide an entry point into this topic. 

So, the three main storage techniques used are underground and depend largely on the existing geological formations ... 

New storage techniques still being researched will allow underground storage facilities to be developed in areas which geology does not permit the use of traditional storage facilities [14], This is the case for caverns in thin salt layers and lined rock caverns. In addition a lot of R D works have been made also to improve operation, maintenance and optimisation of existing UGS facilities.

While it is perfectly acceptable to tone prints that have just been fixed and washed the most consistent results are obtained from toning dry prints that have been re-wet for 5 minutes. This is because the emulsion of freshly processed prints is still in a state of flux. This instability may cause minor variations between prints, even within the same batch. If the prints are to be stored for extended periods prior to toning, use proper storage techniques, as you would for any fine print. Prints that have been stored in or around materials that off-gas may exhibit staining. 

Carbon adsorbs the undissociated hydrogen molecules by repulsion and dispersion forces at then-pore network and surface [2], However, since these binding forces are weak, the physical adsorption process at room temperature is virtually restrained by the thermal motion thus, to store large quantities of hydrogen, the carbon samples have to be cooled [166], However, a cryogenic hydrogen storage technique is, in the majority of cases, economically ineffective [173],... 

This study focuses on the potential use of clathrates as a novel hydrogen storage technique. A clathrate, also called a clathrate compound or a cage compound, is a material consisting of a lattice of one type of molecule trapping and containing a second type of molecule. Powell [8] was the first to call such compounds clathrates. In a paper published in the Journal of the Chemical Society. 

Aflatoxin production is best prevented by using appropriate storage techniques. 

In a study of the first-order decomposition of riboflavin in 0.05 mol dm NaOH using accelerated storage techniques, the temperature was programmed to rise from 12.5 to 55°C using a programme constant, b, of 2.171x10 K b The initial concentration, Cq, of riboflavin was 10 mol dm , and the concentration remaining at time t was as follows ...
