The water temperature and thermal behaviour of the reservoirs of Mequinensa and Riba-roja have been dealt with in different studies and reports. These include water quality controls commissioned by the Ebro River Authority, the CHE [36-39], some study by the Catalan Water Authority, the ACA [42], several degree and PhD thesis at the Technical School of Civil Engineering of Barcelona [43—48] and research projects aimed to study the dispersion of the zebra mussel Dreissena polymorpha [40, 41]. However, the reservoir with the most information available regarding its thermal behaviour is the reservoir of Riba-roja as it has received an important research effort because of the invasion of zebra mussel. 

The ancient Greeks recognized that organisms often pass on traits to their offspring, but it was the experimental work of the Austrian monk Gregor Mendel (1822-1884) that led to a modem hereditary theory . He entered the Augustinian monastery at Britan (now Bmo in the Czech Republic) and taught in its technical school. 

The aim of this book is to introduce to the principles and applications of a branch of chemistry called surface and colloid chemistry. Most science students are taught physicochemical principles pertaining to gases, liquids, and solids. The matter around us is recognized to be made of these three states of matter. However, in university chemistry textbooks, seldom more than a chapter is devoted to the science of surface and colloid chemistry. At technical schools worldwide, the same is the case, in general. However, in the realm of applications of physico-chemical technology, the science of surface and colloid chemistry is one of the most important. Common examples of the principles at work in this field are ... 

He continued his education at the Realschule, or scientific school, at Dresden and at the Gewerbeschule, or technical school, in Chemnitz, spending the vacations in his fathers laboratory. When he entered the Freiberg School of Mines in 1857, he already knew more analytical chemistry than was taught there, and because of this thorough preparation and his sound constitution, he was able to make remarkable progress in research without missing any of die dances and gay parties so dear to a student s heart (7). 

This interactive course in practical NMR spectroscopy may be used in dedicated courses in modem NMR spectroscopy at universities, technical schools or in industry, or may be used in an autodidactic way for those interested in this field. 

Interestingly, the first experiments demonstrating the fluorous biphasic concept were actually made in 1991 by M. Vogt, a German PhD student at the Rheinisch-Westfalischen Technischen Hochschule in Aachen. Unfortunately, Vogt (and his supervisor ) never published these results except as a PhD thesis hidden at the technical school library in Aachen, so their work remained secret. It came to light only some years after the field of fluorous biphasic chemistry was established internationally [151]. 

Major contributions to the application of stereochemistry as a tool in the investigation of reaction mechanisms were made by Joseph Kenyon (1885-1961).111 He was associated for many years with R. H. Pickard (1874-1949)112 at the Blackburn Municipal Technical School. Together they developed very useful methods for the... 

Ph.D. chemists joining the pharmaceutical industry in America come, literally, from all over the world (one of the great strengths in America). The support and technical personnel usually come from more local universities and technical schools. Most need quite a bit of training in the practical chemistry techniques and most have had no, or little, experience in working, like the old-style apprentice, in industrial laboratories, particularly with the kind of thinking and modern instrumentation needed to address problems in a multidisciplinary and quantitative way. 

The offending papers were published almost simultaneously in 1874. Although they were completely independent of one another and argued in very different ways, they arrived at the same conclusions. Yan t Hoff had studied in the Netherlands, then worked for a while under Kekule in Germany. Then he worked in Charles-Adolphe Wurtz s laboratory in Paris, where he met Le Bel. Le Bel had studied at the Ecole Polytechnique, the great French scientific and technical school that trained technical officers for the army. 

At the other end of the social spectrum from the Oxbridge Colleges (see Chap. 6) was East London College.52 When it opened in 1888, it was titled the People s Palace Technical School, changing its name to East London Technical College in 1897. Then in 1915, the institution was incorporated in the... 

University College, Sheffield, was formed in 1897 by the merger of Firth College, Sheffield Technical School, and Sheffield School of Medicine.71 University College, Sheffield, had applied to join Victoria University, but the request was rebuffed.72 Upon the breakup of Victoria University, Sheffield had proposed a... 

Haber studied chemistry at the University of Heidelberg from 1886 until 1891, followed by stints at the University of Berlin and at the Technical School at Charlottenberg. He finally decided to devote himself to chemistry in 1894 by accepting an assistantship at Karlsruhe, where he remained until 1911. 

The purpose of the preceding chapters has been to introduce the student to a subject which, as a separate course of study, is unfortunately neglected at our universities and technical schools.

Werner attended the Ecole Libre des Freres (1872-1878), and then the Ecole Professionelle (1878-1885), a technical school where he studied chemistry. During his compulsory year of military service in the German army (1885-1886), he audited chemistry lectures at the Technische Hochschule (Technical University) in Karlsruhe. He then attended the Eidgenossisches Polytechnikum, now the Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule (Federal Polytechnic University), in Zurich, Switzerland, from which he received a degree in technical chemistry in 1889. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Zurich iu 1890. 

Returning to Germany in 1825 Wohler held positions in technical schools in Berlin and Kassel. In 1832 he was offered the professorship of chemistry of the medical faculty at the University of Gottingen, where he stayed until his death (on September 23, 1882). Wohler is best known for his synthesis of urea and the isolation of aluminum. He is also known...
