Inductor. The channel inductor assembly consists of a steel box or case that contains the inductor refractory and the inductor core and coil assembly. The channel is formed within the refractory. Inductor power ratings range from 25 kilowatts for low temperature metals to 5000 kilowatts for molten iron. Forced air is used to cool the lower power inductors, and water is generally used to cool inductors rated 500 kilowatts or more. 

The hquid vehicle in a slurry should have a low vapor pressure for Hquid extraction and drying be compatible with the soHds and casting mold be inexpensive and be capable of dissolving and dispersing deflocculants and other additives. Distilled or deionized water is generally used as the Hquid vehicle, however, organic Hquids must be used for such moisture sensitive oxide powders as CaO and MgO, and for oxidation sensitive nonoxide powders, eg, AIN. 

Monitors and deluge sets-Many chemical plants use monitors for general use and for high hazard locations in order to provide maximum water supply with a minimum of manpower exposure. Deluge sets supported by ample hose streams are preferred for some protection uses. 

For water, SpGr = 1.0 at 62°F, although for general use it can be considered 1.0 over a much wider range. For explanation of vacuum and atmospheric pressure, see Chapter 2. 

Basic Oxygen Furnace Boilers (BOF Boilers) Basic oxygen furnace boilers are commonly employed in the BOF steel-making process. A WH boiler is fitted into the flue gas hood. The WH boiler may be either a steam generator of water-wall membrane construction or a steam-pressurized HTHW boiler. Where a steam generator is employed, the steam is fed to the plant for general use. 

The environmental impact of a new product needs to be assessed before it can be released for general use. Chemicals released into the environment can enter the food chain and be concentrated in plants and animals. Aquatic ecosystems are particularly sensitive, in this respect, since chemicals, when applied to agricultural land, can be transported in the ground water to rivers and then to the lakes, where they can accumulate in fish and plant life. The ecokinetic model presented here is based on a simple compartmental analysis and is based on laboratory ecosystem studies (Blau et ah, 1975). The model is useful in simulating the results of events, such as the accidental spillage of an agrochemical into a pond, where it is not ethical to perform actual experimental studies. 

Before dialytic recovery of concentrated analytes, any periphyton or biofilm, carbonate salts, etc., on the SPMD membrane are removed by the following sequence of steps. First, each individual SPMD is immersed in about 200 mL of hexane in a glass beaker for about 20 to 30 seconds. Afterwards, the hexane is discarded. Then, SPMDs are placed in a stainless steel pan and washed with copious amounts of mnning water (tap water is generally used but a 1 L sample should... 

The evaporation of water is generally used to determine the gas film coefficient. A loss of heat in the water body can also be related to the gas film coefficient because the process of evaporation requires a significant amount of heat, and heat transfer across the water surface is analogous to evaporation if other sources and sinks of heat are taken into account. Although the techniques of Section 8.D can be used to determine the gas film coefficient over water bodies, they are still iterative, location specific, and dependent on fetch or wind duration. For that reason, investigators have developed empirical relationships to characterize gas film coefficient from field measurements of evaporation or temperature. Then, the air-water transfer of a nonvolatile compound is given as...
