Railcar, a rail brokerage that works closely with railroads to schedule shipments, has made Fixit an offer to move product. Railcar also coordinate schedules with the railroads to improve supply chain costs for shippers. The current offer by Railcar is a shipment price of 6,000 for one wagonload of widgets from Seattle to Pittsburgh. The capacity of a wagon is 15,000 packs. Transit time is expected to be 15 days with a standard deviation, based on current performance, of 10 days. [Pg.8]


Barges may have fewer accidents than tank trucks, but the severity of a major release from a barge may be great enough to make the higher potential accident rate with tank truck shipments the better choice. [Pg.93]

Raw Material Obtained in the Following Size Containers Styrene by barge in 2,200,000 lb shipments Hydroxyl apatite in 50 lb bags Dodecylbenzene sulfonate in 5 gal cans Benzoyl peroxide in 300 lb drums Polybutadiene in 50 lb bales Hydrochloric acid in tank truck shipments... [Pg.76]

The volumes of defense TRU waste which may become candidates for disposal in WIPP are summarized in Table I. Presently, only the retrievable and yearly production portions are planned for WIPP disposal. The WIPP will have a TRU through-put capacity of 1.2 x 10 ft per year on a three shift per day basis. During the pilot phase, it is anticipated that waste volume would initially be restricted, perhaps to 500,000 ft3 per year. This volume would require about 930 truck shipments and 1,040 railcar shipments. This assumes three-fourths of the waste comes by rail. [Pg.15]

Close scheduling is recommended for the transport of nitric acid that has a concentration above 99%. For truck shipments the maximum recommended transport time is three (3) days while rail shipments have a recommended transport time of five (5) days97. [Pg.248]

In California, bulk truck shipments are available. These units are provided with self-contained unloading equipment and can be emptied into a storage silo by the driver. A manufacturer s Filtration Specialist should be available to give customers further information on bulk handling systems and on unloading bulk cars. Additional information may be obtained on request from your filter aids suppliers (6). [Pg.178]

About 55% of Brazil s soybeans move out from two ports in the Southeast, Para-nt ua and Santos (SECEX, 2007). Both ports receive truck shipments, but Santos is connected direcdy by rail to Southeast Mato Grosso. The next most active area is in the Northeast, from the ports of Vitoria (13%), Sao Francisco (12%), and Sao Luiz... [Pg.792]

The great majority of nuclear shipments are very small in size [less than 0.45 kg (1 lb) per shipment] and total nearly 2.8 million shipments per year (an average of 7656 shipments per day) (51). Spent fuel shipments (material only) typically weigh 0.5-1.0 metric tons for truck shipments and up to 10 metric tons for rail shipments. [Pg.197]

The tank configuration is cylindrical, in order to provide the required design volumes within the established envelope of heights and widths. Length ranges are from 5.5 to 11 m (18 to 36 ft) they are well within practical truck shipment limits. A circular shape is required to support the substantial internal and external fluid and earth pressures with good structural efficiency. Other considerations in selection of an efficient configuration are used. [Pg.540]

StapleMax s freight terms with the wholesaler are "DDU" —which means F.O.B. destination (i.e., Carlisle), with StapleMax paying the freight bill for the truck shipments from Kansas City to Carlisle. Currently, the four items supplied by the wholesaler all ship independently from Kansas City to the Carlisle DC, some via TL and some via LTL. Important logistics-related data and product-related data appear in Tables 4.13 and 4.14. [Pg.224]

This is similar to the previous scenario but differs in two important respects. First, the hazardous chemical shipment is in transit, rather than at a fixed site. Second, the quantity of hazardous chemicals in any one truck or rail shipment is usually far less than the amount of hazardous materials stored at a fixed facility—large truck shipments are typically on the order of 40,000 pounds, while rail shipments can be four times higher than this. ... [Pg.52]

Tank Trucks TDI is shipped in 4000- to 5000-gal trucks. Shipment weights range from 40,000 to 50,0001b, depending on the point of origin and road weight regulations. [Pg.174]
