Radiotracer Technology in Mixing Processes for Industrial Applications

Radiotracer Technology in Mixing Processes for Industrial Applications

Many problems associated with the mixing process remain unsolved and result in poor mixing performance. The residence time distribution (RTD) and the mixing time are the most important parameters that determine the homogenisation that is achieved in the mixing vessel and are discussed in detail in this paper. In addition, this paper reviews the current problems associated with conventional trac...

Agent Technology in Industrial Applications

The agent metaphor has become increasingly popular in distributed computing systems. As often with a new paradigm, it is not very clear what the exact meaning is. The meaning and the development of the agent paradigm is therefore discussed in this paper. One motivation for using agents in distributed systems is that, due to the rapid technical development of computing and communication faciliti...

Industrial Applications of Sol-Gel Technology

Abstract. In present paper, various industrial applications of the sol-gel technology will be briefly introduced. In particular, the current development status and technological issues of sol gel derived functional nanoparticles in electronic and industrial materials will be reviewed. Productions and surface modifications of nanoparticles by sol-gel processing, their incorporations into nanocom...

On translating technology research into industrial applications

Basic or pure research advances fundamental knowledge about the world and generates new ideas, principles, and theories, which, while not always immediately usable, form the basis of progress and development in different fields and industries, even starting new ones. For example, computers could not exist without research in mathematical logics and solid state physics over a century ago, while ...
