The technological process

Whereas the aromatics yields from n-alkanes in conventional S/R reforming using Pt-ReS are low, for example, 15% for n hexane, and increase with carbon number, those using PtL are high, for example, 80% for n hexane, and tend to decline or be approximately constant with carbon number, possibly due to dealkylation of heavier aromatics into lighter ones. 

In contrast to conventional systems, the platinum crystallites in the channels appear to remain coke-free coke is associated with external Pt and the KL zeolite.182 

In ongoing efforts to solve the sulphur problem, which has delayed commercialisation of PtKL, UOP187 patented a multimetallic, multigradient PtKL in which there is surface Sn/In they also claim physical mixtures of PtL and a sulphur-sorber MnO, separate or in the same particle. They consider that sulphur-free equates to 14 ppb in the feedstock.188 In uprates from existing S/R plants, desulphurisation of the hardware is also advised.9 The literature appears to be sparse on possible bimetallic solutions. 

The technology has been proposed for uprate solutions.191 UOP192 patented a hybrid CCR-PtKL-CCR, designed to upgrade existing CCR plants, and is described as a novel approach to complementary use of 

Mobil199 have patented Pt-In-silicalite showing DHC activity in some respects analogous to PtKL, but data in this reference are limited to tests of short duration.

There are several possible reasons why a scientific study of an art work may be desirable. An obvious one is in cases where the authenticity of an object is doubted on styHstic grounds, but no unanimous opinion exists. The scientist can identify the materials, analy2e the chemical composition, and then investigate whether these correspond to what has been found in comparable objects of unquestioned provenance. If the sources for the materials can be characterized, eg, through trace element composition or stmcture, it may be possible to determine whether the sources involved in the procurement of the materials for comparable objects with known provenance are the same. Comparative examination of the technological processes involved in the manufacture allows for conclusions as to whether the object was made using techniques actually available to the people who supposedly created it. Additionally, dating techniques may lead to the estabUshment of the date of manufacture. 

Understanding of the technological process and identification of subprocesses are essential for proper ventilation design, especially when designing process ventilation but also in enclosure air technology. The purpose of process description is to identify possible emission sources, occupational areas, the effects of environmental parameters on production, needs for enclosure and ventilation equipment, etc. One purpose is to divide the process into parts such that their inputs and outputs (e.g., process, piping and duct connections, electricity, exposure) to environment can be defined. Parts here can he different departments, and inside them, subprocesses. See Fig. 3.4. 

The temperature of air supplied by the air curtain should not exceed 70 °C in case the technological process does not require any other temperature. The thermal capacity of the air curtain is determined according to the equation... 

Hence, the main aim of the technological process in obtaining fibres from flexible-chain polymers is to extend flexible-chain molecules and to fix their oriented state by subsequent crystallization. The filaments obtained by this method exhibit a fibrillar structure and high tenacity, because the structure of the filament is similar to that of fibres prepared from rigid-chain polymers (for a detailed thermodynamic treatment of orientation processes in polymer solutions and the thermokinetic analysis of jet-fibre transition in longitudinal solution flow see monograph3. ... 

Effective design of a remediation system for dissolved hydrocarbons in groundwater requires consideration of more than only the effectiveness of the technological process involved. At many sites a variety of techniques are capable of completing the cleanup. However, design of a project that is efficient in all aspects — technically, in terms of time, and economically — requires an evaluation of the entire life cycle of the project from inception to closure. Typically, at sites where remediation is expected to continue over a 4-year project life, operation and maintenance account for between 50 and 80% of the total project cost. These percentages increase each year thereafter. The principal components of operation and maintenance are power, labor, and parts. Identification and quantification of these components are critical to the overall cost of a project. 

Apparently, it is the people aspect - not the technology, process, or content - that is an impediment. To address this challenge, the KM group has succeeded in making an employee s ability to codify and reuse knowledge (as part of project execution and closure) an integral component of his/her performance evaluation. Eurthermore, the KM group surveys Infoscions periodically on the extent to which they... 

Exposure is considered as single events, or series of repeated events, or as continuous exposure. The duration and frequency of exposure, the routes of exposure, human habits and practices, as well as the technological processes need to be considered. Furthermore, the spatial scale of the exposure (e.g., personal/local/regional level) has to be taken into account. 

The technology processes solid wastes in a single-pass batch mode. 

The dates of these references tell us about the current interest in this topic. However, despite the promising results obtained, and the great interest paid to this new alternative method, the mechanism of cell disruption is still unclear and the quantification of the technological process is not yet precise. Furthermore, it would be essential to understand the relationship between the degree of inactivation and the dimensions and the structure of cell membranes, and the shape of the micro-organism. 

This book attempts to answer some of the questions listed above. The method of choice in the search for answers is modelling the principal stages of the technological process on the basis of laboratory investigations of the fundamental chemical and physical phenomena leading to formation of the final product (article).

Two different approaches with the same philosophy appeared simultaneously in 1997 [80,128], but their main differences concern the formulation of the active waveguide, the optical setup and its integration, the guiding elements themselves and the technological processes to construct the sensors. Figure 16 represents both measurement systems. 

The technological process of the environmentally friendly power generation is remarkably simple. But there is a catch. Extracting hydrogen from other substances such as hydrocarbons and water is itself a very costly and power-consuming chemical process. On the other hand, pressurized storage of the very light gas requires additional expenses. 

If the water used for hydrolytic condensation is not enough to dissolve most of the released hydrogen chloride, the total thermal effect decreases if the water dimethyldichlorosilane volume ratio is from 0.35 1 to 0.5 1, it becomes zero. In this case more than 50% of the formed hydrogen chloride have to be withdrawn in gaseous form, which complicates the technological process. Besides, the hydrolysate has excessive acidity. 

The technological process of the biochemical purification of waste waters in silicone production comprises the following stages the neutralisation of acid waste waters the averaging and mechanical purification of waste waters the biochemical purification of waste waters and the dehydration of the sediment (Fig. 82). 

Thus, the conditions for the formation of by-products are close to the conditions of the main process, which impairs one-stage synthesis. However, the one-stage production of triethylaluminum is more convenient due to the simplicity of the technological process. The one-stage production of triethylaluminum nevertheless requires the speed of the main reaction to be much higher than the speed of secondary reactions. 

It is well documented that dietary proteins possess nutritional, functional and biological properties, and that these are often affected by the technological processes used in food manufacture and processing (Korhonen et al, 1998a). Proteins may also be added as functional ingredients to foods to emulsify, to bind water or fat, to form foams or gels, and to alter the flavor, appearance and texture (Anantharaman and Finot, 1993). The role of proteins as physiologically active components in the diet has been... 

The technological process for purifying brine is almost identical with both diaphragm and mercury cell methods of the manufacture of either sodium or potassium hydroxide. Therefore, it is sufficient to describe only the preparation of brine in the manufacture of sodium caustic by the amalgam method. 

Water, a thermometer, and an isolated system are the basic components of a calorimeter. A calorimeter is a device that is used to measure changes in thermal energy. (Figures 14.14 and 14.15 show two types of calorimeters.) The technological process of measuring changes in thermal energy is called calorimetry. 

It is the year 3000, and space travel is common-place. Nearly one trillion human beings inhabit the Milky Way galaxy now. They reside on thousands of planets that have been made habitable. You are part of a scientific team that has been sent to a newly discovered planet. Your team must analyse the resources present on the planet. You will also decide on the technological processes needed to make the planet a safe place to live. 

A strategy to develop new catalysts or to improve existing ones must encompass at least three aspects (i) an analysis of the catalyst structure and composition, (ii) an analysis of the interactions of reactants and products with the catalyst surface, and (iii) characterizations that should be performed under conditions as close as possible to those of the technological process, ideally as the catalyst is working and rates are measured simultaneously. It is difficult to meet all of these requirements in a single experiment, but the necessary information can be obtained in parallel investigations, and spectroscopy of the working catalytic surfaces and molecules adsorbed on them is thus the focus of much current research (7). 

Solvent residues are impurities that are hard to completely remove during the technological process. This brings the necessity to determine their levels in the final product. According to ICH standards, residues of Class I have to be always identified and quantified. Similar procedures concern the residues of Class II and III if the concentration levels exceed acceptable norms [9]. 

In conclusion, science and practice have demonstrated that both the US FDA soaking procedure (14 days at 40 °C) and the solventless contamination procedure (seven days at 50 °C) are suitable to evaluate decontamination technologies with respect to their potential for producing regulatory compliant food grade recycled PET. The preferred procedure may be selected case by case according to the particular requirements of the technological process and the end user (customer).
