    AP-PECVD.[51, 52] The different methods of plasma production, include microwave frequency plasma (MW), also known as glow-discharge, radio frequency (RF) plasma and arc plasma. By utilizing two electrodes in the reaction chamber, the high frequency power is applied to the gas to be ionized. When microwave frequency is used, plasma is produced by the application of a high frequency electric field of magnitude of 2.45 GHz at a low pressure to a carrier gas such as oxygen, argon or nitrogen. At such high

    The horrible tragedy at the DuPont Chemical Plant in La Porte, Texas, which ended in four innocent people losing their lives, began roughly 5 days prior to the accident. It was November 10, 2014, when a reactor in the plants Lannate unit, an insecticide DuPont produces for many agricultural purposes, went down for an unscheduled maintenance. Lannate is produced by reacting toxic methyl mercaptan with other chemicals. Two days later on November 12th, after all the up-keep was taken care of on the

    mainly through storage and transportation methods – production methods are the same, however to change the fuel to liquid, several conditions are applied. Storage For storage of pure hydrogen liquid, cryogenics is applied. Cryogenics utilises hydrogen’s boiling point and the ideal gas law (Appendix Two). It involves drastically increasing pressure (between 600 to 35000 kPa) resulting in a temperature increase (according to Gay-Lussac’s Law). The gas is allowed to cool through the use of a heat exchanger

    In order to find the molar volume of a gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP), one could create a reaction between a magnesium (Mg) ribbon and excess hydrochloric acid (HCl). By having HCl put into a eudiometer tube, then adding DI water nearly to the brim, one can then add Mg, by means of a copper wire cage attached to the tube stopper. The tube thereafter, is inverted and directly put into a bath of water. Due to HCl’s greater density than water, HCl will move down to the now-bottom of

    therefore it is important to handle the chemical properly. Inhaling or getting the solution on skin can have several effects such as burning, fainting and even death. Even low concentrations can cause damage to the human body when over exposed. Production The natural occurrence of ammonia happens when plants, animals or organic matter decompose, releasing ammonia into the air. Not only that, but ammonia salts can also be

    principles of the counter flow concentric heat exchanger we can save electricity by using the hot gas produced during production in chemical plants. The gas that is used in this text is carbon dioxide gas, this gas is mostly produced as an unwanted gas. A hot gas in the pipe will be passed through the tank to cause heat transfer from the pipe to the tank. The will be no mass transfer between the gas and the water, only energy in the form of heat will be transferred. The counter flow of fluids will

    Water vapor. Out of all the gases, water vapor makes the largest contribution to the Earth’s GHE (EPA, 2015). Water vapor has an atmospheric lifetime (AL) (defined as “the approximate amount of time it would take for the anthropogenic increment to an atmospheric pollutant concentration to return to its natural level (assuming emissions cease) as a result of either being converted to another chemical compound or being taken out of the atmosphere via a sink” (EPA, 2013)) of approximately 10 days

    degrees Celsius (oC), its American equivalent Fahrenheit (F) or Kelvin (K). At standard temperature, 0oC corresponds to 273 K. However, 0K is commonly referred to as the ‘absolute zero degree’ where all molecular motion would cease. Temperature and gas solubility: Generally, increasing temperature would cause a comparable rise in the solubility of liquid and solid solutes in liquid solvents. A specific example includes the crystallisation of a concentrated mannitol solution at low temperatures and

    traditional solids, liquids, and gases. It is a collection of charged particles that respond strongly and collectively to electromagnetic fields, taking the form of gas-like clouds or ion beams. Since the particles in plasma are electrically charged (generally by being stripped of electrons), it is frequently described as an "ionized gas."[1] so that the electrons and ions are separately free. When does this ionization occur? When the temperature is hot enough.

    Introduction The recovery of residual oil from reservoirs is one of the major challenges faced by petroleum industries. Based on the requirement of heat, EOR techniques have been divided into cold and hot (thermal) recovery methods. Cold methods such as CHOPS, water / polymer flooding, microbial injection, etc. doesn’t require any additional heat which saves the cost of heat generation. On other hand thermal methods like SAGD, CSS, steam flooding, fire-flooding, etc. require more temperature which
