A number of structured databases have been developed to classify proteins according to the three-dimensional structures. Many of these are accessible via the World Wide Web, T1 protein databanlc (PDB [Bernstein d al. 1977]) is the primary source of data about the stru tures of biological macromolecules and contains a large number of structures, but many i these are of identical proteins (complexed with different ligands or determined at differet resolutions) or are of close homologues. 

In the United States, more than 16.3 x 10 kg of human-inedible raw materials are available each year, and the rendering industry is a valuable asset in diverting these into valuable ingredients for use primarily in animal foods (4). The three largest meat packers are responsible for nearly four-fifths of aU red meat production (5) and enormous amounts of rendered meat meal and animal fat. Three broiler producers account for about 40% of the total broiler production. American Proteins, Inc. (RosweU, Georgia), the world s largest processor of poultry by-products, produces more than 450,000 t of poultry meal, feather meal, and poultry fat each year. It also produces more than 100,000 t of fish meal, fish oil, and fish products each year. Pish meal production worldwide in 1986 was estimated at 6.23 x 10 t, which with the 125 x 10 t of meat and bone meal plus 6.67 x 10 t of feather meal and poultry by-product meal (6) is the primary source of animal proteins used by the pet food industry. 

Although a tremendous number of fermentation processes have been researched and developed to various extents, only a couple of hundred ate used commercially. Fermentation industries have continued to expand in terms of the number of new products on the market, the total volume (capacity), and the total sales value of the products. The early 1990s U.S. market for fermentation products was estimated to be in the 9-10 x 10 range. The total world market is probably three times that figure, and antibiotics continue to comprise a primary share of the industry. Other principal product categories are enzymes, several organic acids, baker s yeast, ethanol (qv), vitamins (qv), and steroid hormones (qv). 

The three basic Internet appHcations of remote login, electronic mad, and file transfer are also budding blocks of more sophisticated appHcations that offer increased functionaUty and ease of network use. Tools such as Gopher, Wide Area Information Servers (WAIS), and World Wide Web (WWW) go beyond the three basic Internet functions to make information on the network easier to locate and use. Detaded descriptions of these tools are avadable (10). This trend toward more powerful, user-friendly networked information resource access systems should continue as Internet grows and matures. 

The accident at the Three Mile Island (TMI) plant in Pennsylvania in 1979 led to many safety and environmental improvements (4—6). No harm from radiation resulted to TMI workers, to the pubHc, or to the environment (7,8), although the accident caused the loss of a 2 x 10 investment. The accident at the Chernobyl plant in the Ukraine in 1986, on the other hand, caused the deaths of 31 workers from high doses of radiation, increased the chance of cancer later in life for thousands of people, and led to radioactive contamination of large areas. This latter accident was unique to Soviet-sponsored nuclear power. The Soviet-designed Chemobyl-type reactors did not have the intrinsic protection against a mnaway power excursion that is requited in the test of the world, not was there a containment building (9—11). 

The spectmm of oxo products ia Japan is far less diverse. Nearly 75% of Japan s total oxo capacity of 733,000 t is dedicated to the hydroformylation of propylene. 2-EH derived from -butyraldehyde is by far the dominant product. Other products iaclude linear alcohols and higher branched alcohols. Additionally, Japan is the world s principal source of branched heptyl alcohol. The three ptincipal Japanese oxo producers having slightly more than 70% of Japan s total oxo capacity are Mitsubishi Kasei, Kyowa Yuka, and Japan Oxocol. 

The first commercial plant to use CYANEX 272 became operational in 1985. An additional three plants were constmcted between 1985 and 1989. Of the four, one is in South America and three in Europe. An additional three plants have been built two in Europe (1994) and one in North America (1995). Approximately 50% of the Western world s cobalt is processed using CYANEX 272. Both high purity salts and electrolytic cobalt metal are recovered from solutions ranging in composition from 30 g/L each of cobalt and nickel to 0.2 g/L Co, 95 g/L Ni Operating companies usually regard use of CYANEX 272 as confidential for competitive reasons and identities cannot be disclosed. CYANEX 272 is being evaluated on the pilot-plant scale in many additional projects involving the recovery of cobalt and other metals. 

Total sales of prescription bronchodHators and antiasthma products in 1989 were approximately 1.2 and 3.3 bHHon in the North American and world markets, respectively (166). The three largest shares of the world market were held by Glaxo Holdings pic, Schering-Plough Corporation, and Boehringer Ingelheim Corporation. 

The three single biggest producers were India, Brazil, and the United States, with 15.85, 12.6, and 7.24 x 10 kg, respectively. The average world market price for raw sucrose in 1994—1995 was 0.27/kg. A comparison of the price of sucrose and other sweeteners (qv) is given in Table 2. 

Pyrite is the most abundant of the metal sulfides. Eor many years, until the Erasch process was developed, pyrite was the main source of sulfur and, for much of the first half of the twentieth century, comprised over 50% of world sulfur production. Pyrite reserves are distributed throughout the world and known deposits have been mined in about 30 countries. Possibly the largest pyrite reserves in the world are located in southern Spain, Portugal, and the CIS. Large deposits are also in Canada, Cypms, Einland, Italy, Japan, Norway, South Africa, Sweden, Turkey, the United States, and Yugoslavia. However, the three main regional producers of pyrites continue to be Western Europe Eastern Europe, including the CIS and China. 

Total U.S. surfactant shipments ia 1993 were almost - 5 x 10 kg with a sales value of 3.5 x 10 , a 3% iacrease over 1992 (110). Adjusted for inflation, the actual growth was about 2%, iadicative of a mature market. Nonetheless, the market has changed and will continue to do so, as evidenced by the iatroduction of alkylpolyglucosides, alkylglucosamides, and ester quaternaries ia the 1990s, and by iatense patent activity. Over the three-year period from 1992 to 1994, 1500 world patents were filed for cleaning products, 33% of which dealt with surfactants (63). 

Table 9 is a summary of world toluene supply and demand for 1996. North America, Asia, and Western Europe dominated the world s toluene business ia 1996. The three regions together accounted for over 85% of world production, imports, exports, and actual consumption, respectively. North America led ia production and consumption, while Asia led ia imports and exports. Table 10 presents the world toluene supply and demand. The worldwide demand for toluene increased by 7% from 1993 to 1994 and from 1994 to 1995, consecutively, because of higher hydrodealkylation (HDA) and disproportionation (TDP) operations, plus strong demand for all other derivatives. Over 70% of toluene is derived from a single source, catalytic reformate. 

The evolution in the world production of asbestos fibers since 1950 is illustrated in Table 5 (5) after a peak near 1980, production leveled off after 1985 at 4.2 4.3 X 10 t. Changes in the production of the two main producers, Canada and the former USSR, over the same period are also illustrated. These figures show a substantial decrease in the Canadian production with a concomitant increase in the former USSR production. During recent years, several other countries, namely Brazil, Zimbabwe, and China, have substantially increased their production of chrysotile. Most of China s production, as well as the limited production of many other countries, is used in local industrial appHcations. South Africa is the only country where the three main types of asbestos are produced (chrysotile, crocidoHte, and amosite), and the only significant producer of amphibole fibers. 

World production of lead—acid batteries in 1988, excluding the Eastern European central economy countries, has been estimated at 9.45 biUion. The automotive market was 6743 million or 211.6 million units. Industrial battery sales were 2082 million and consumer battery sales were 454 million. Motorcycle batteries accounted for an additional 170 million or 25 million units. Most batteries are produced in the United States, Western Europe, and Japan, but smaller numbers are produced worldwide. The breakdown in sales for the three production areas foUows. Automotive battery sales were 2304 million in the United States, 1805 in Western Europe, and 945 million in Japan. Industrial battery sales were 525 million in the United States, 993 million in Western Europe, and 266 million in Japan. Consumer battery sales were 104 million in the United States, 226 million in Japan, and 82 million in Western Europe. More than half of all motorcycle batteries are produced in Japan and Taiwan (1). 

By the mid-1990s capacity for polyethylene production was about 50 000 000 t.p.a, much greater than for any other type of plastics material. Of this capacity about 40% was for HDPE, 36% for LDPE and about 24% for LLDPE. Since then considerable extra capacity has been or is in the course of being built but at the time of writing financial and economic problems around the world make an accurate assessment of effective capacity both difficult and academic. It is, however, appeirent that the capacity data above is not reflected in consumption of the three main types of material where usage of LLDPE is now of the same order as the other two materials. Some 75% of the HDPE and LLDPE produced is used for film applications and about 60% of HDPE for injection and blow moulding. 

The latest CARB/EPA procedures require diurnal emissions to be measured during a real time, three day test that exposes the complete vehicle to daily temperature fluctuations. This test method has been employed to more accurately reflect the real world diurnal emissions that occur. Rutming loss emission measurements were also initiated in the latest test procedures. Evaporative emissions are measured...
