متن کاملSettling-Thickening Tanks
Settling-thickening tanks are used to achieve separation of the liquid and solid fractions of faecal sludge (FS).

متن کاملWhich Tanks Empty Faster?
Suppose that water towers like those shown in Figure 1 are initially filled with water and have the same volume, height, and cross-sectional outlet area. Which one empties first? This problem arises naturally when designing watersupplying tanks or funnels. We find a formula expressing the emptying time as a function of the volume of liquid and its initial height. We compute the emptying time fo...
متن کاملDesulfurization of gasoline.
Although gasoline blending streams exhibit widely varying sulfur concentrations, significant quantities of low-sulfur motor gasoline cannot be manufactured by reallocation of existing components without substantial sacrifices in the useful properties of the remaining fuels having normal sulfur levels. To meet the anticipated demand for low-sulfur unleaded gasoline which may be required for cata...
متن کاملGasoline, asbestos, and dioxin.
-Mammary teat removal (thelectomy) was performed unilaterally in female Sprague-Dawley rats at 35 days of age. They were given 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) when aged either 55 days or 79 days. One third were unmated; one third were mated one week and one third mated more than 3 weeks after DMBA administration. Animals were killed when tumour-positive or after one year, when mammary les...
