Water jet technology

The BWM has a rotary carousel with multiple bursterholding receptacles 12,000-psi water-jet probes (no abrasive) are used to wash out the burster tubes. Water-jet washout of the M55 rocket burster was successfully demonstrated during the ACWA Demonstration I tests using 12,000-psi water.2 The use of water-jet technology at a Pueblo disposal facility should be straightforward. Pressure should not build up within the burster tubes because the jet direction is tangential toward the walls and the tubes are open at both ends (K. Burchett, Parsons representative, personal communication, February 1, 2001). Lower pressure jets, 2,000 to 3,000 psi, may be used in full-scale operations.

Very thin fibres for nonwovens can be produced by split fibre technology. Bicomponent fibres are processed into a nonwoven fabric and this is followed by a splitting process. The fibres may be split mechanically by water jet technology or by the chemical dissolution of one component which leaves fine fibres of the other component (Fig. 2.7).

This prevents water penetration and only the exterior of the electrode is exposed to electrolytes. When used with 30 nm sized carbon black powder, the conductive area of the electrode in contact with the electrolyte consists of less than 1 % of the geometric cross-sectional area of the electrode. This has been compared with an ensemble of microelectrodes. These CCEs showed an improvement of up to three orders of magnitude in terms of Faradaic signal-to-noise compared with glassy carbon electrodes [218]. In addition, the sol gel method of preparation affords a variety of structural configurations and it has been shown that CCEs can be produced by thick film and ink jet technology, which allows for their mass production [219]. 

This report discusses four technologies single water jet, spinning twin water jets, lathe machining, and rotary knife grinding (RKG). The size reduction methods are compared among each other for safety, efficiency, and performance.

Raw water in Raba Water Treatment Plant is oxidized in the process of preliminary ozoniza-tion in contact tank with two chambers. Usually the dose of ozone is less than 4 g/m . Ozone is produced on the spot by system of PCI Ozone of capacity 30 kgOj/h. Then water flows to the separation chamber where the coagulant (PAX or du-minum sulfate in dose 0-40 g/m ), Magnaflok (in dose 0A1.5 g/m ) and sometimes the active carbon (in dose 0 10 g/m ) are added. In the next chamber the water jet is separated into two technological treatment lines Raba I and Raba II.
