Many site-specific characteristics have an impact on vitrification technologies. One critical aspect of any thermal technology is the water content of the waste. Water dilutes feed material, requires energy to drive off, and physically limits the feed rate of waste. Feed preparation is another variable, which differs with the technology and with site-specific characteristics. Many estimates do not take into account site preparation and waste disposal costs. Only complete treatment life-cycle assessments can provide reliable comparison data, and such studies are, by definition, highly site and waste specific (D18248T, p. 55). 

Operation at pH greater than 10.5 lowers the treatment life of the oleophilic granules. Effluent may require additional treatment prior to disposal. Even under ideal conditions, the treated water effluent will still contain between 5 and 15 mg/liter of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), which may require additional treatment prior to disposal.

Due to the large temperature gradient in many gas wells, corrosion mechanisms can change, resulting in different types of corrosion in the same well, whereas oil wells do not exhibit this behavior. Normally, oil wells produce more liquid than gas wells, resulting in a shorter treatment life when batch treated. Because corrosion in oil wells is electrochemical in nature, an electrolyte must be present for corrosion to occur. In oil wells, the source of the water is nearly always the producing formation, and the water will contain dissolved salts in concentrations ranging from traces to saturation. Water associated with corrosion may be in a thin layer, in droplets, or even the major phase. 

Substrates that have been atmospheric plasma treated hold their treatment levels far longer than corona treated surfaces. Longer treatment life allows converters to take advantage of economies of scale during production, increase inventory life, and provide enhanced manufacturing flexibility. 

The purpose of chemical processes is not to make chemicals The purpose is to make money. However, the profit must he made as part of a sustainable industrial activity which retains the capacity of ecosystems to support industrial activity and life. This means that process waste must be taken to its practical and economic minimum. Relying on methods of waste treatment is usually not adequate, since waste treatment processes tend not so much to solve the waste problem but simply to move it from one place to another. Sustainable industrial activity also means that energy consumption must be taken to its practical and economic minimum. Chemical processes also must not present significant short-term or long-term hazards, either to the operating personnel or to the community. 

The treatment of expenditures will be specified by the fiscal system set by the host government. A typical case would be to define expenditure on items whose useful life exceeds one year as capital expenditure (capex), such as costs of platforms, pipelines, wells. Items whose useful life is less than one year (e.g. chemicals, services, maintenance, overheads, insurance costs) would then be classed as operating expenditure (opex). 

Another important example of redox titrimetry that finds applications in both public health and environmental analyses is the determination of dissolved oxygen. In natural waters the level of dissolved O2 is important for two reasons it is the most readily available oxidant for the biological oxidation of inorganic and organic pollutants and it is necessary for the support of aquatic life. In wastewater treatment plants, the control of dissolved O2 is essential for the aerobic oxidation of waste materials. If the level of dissolved O2 falls below a critical value, aerobic bacteria are replaced by anaerobic bacteria, and the oxidation of organic waste produces undesirable gases such as CH4 and H2S. 

NIDDM is a much more common disease than IDDM, accounting for about 85—90% of all cases of diabetes meUitus. Whereas NIDDM may be present at any age, the incidence increases dramatically with advanced age over 10% of the population reaching 70 years of age has NIDDM. Patients with NIDDM do not require insulin treatment to maintain life or prevent the spontaneous occurrence of diabetic ketoacidosis. Therefore, NIDDM is frequendy asymptomatic and unrecognized, and diagnosis requires screening for elevations in blood or urinary sugar. Most forms of NIDDM are associated with a family history of the disease, and NIDDM is commonly associated with and exacerbated by obesity. The causes of NIDDM are not well understood and there may be many molecular defects which lead to NIDDM.
