also produces a salty waste water loaded with glycerin - thus a water treatment plant is required. 7) Soap plants traditionally are batch plants where the feed materials are mixed and reacted in large heated kettles (called "crutchers") under atmospheric pressure and made quasi-continuous by operating several kettles in turn. The process takes several days and the natural cooling and drying might even take several weeks. To speed up the process and get more economy of scale, most modern plants are

completed individually by me. I did not receive nor did I give unauthorized assistance during the taking of this exam. ____________________________ Student Name ************************************************************************ 1. (8pts) Is the atmospheric “greenhouse effect” bad for us and for our planet? Explain your answer. The greenhouse effect allows the sun’s radiation to get to Earth and absorbs some of the infrared radiation from Earth. Without the greenhouse effect, we would release too much

Introduction There are many methods of reporting the humidity, including the Absolute Humidity, Specific Humidity, Mixing Ratio, Relative Humidity, and others. All methods are used, though the common method used in the public is Relative Humidity. The purpose of this lab is to learn how to calculate Relative Humidity. Instructions There are two options to completing this lab: 1. Gathering Temperature and Dew Point data from the National Weather Service and calculating the Relative Humidity

Written Report Pascal's law or the principle of transmission of fluid-pressure is a principle in fluid mechanics that states that pressure exerted anywhere in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted equally in all directions throughout the fluid such that the pressure variations (initial differences) remain the same. The law was established by French mathematician, Blaise Pascal. This principle is stated mathematically as: * P=pg( h) * P is the hydrostatic pressure (given

Weekly Report November 7-8, 2015 My first week at Max’s Restaurant is exciting because I’m assigned at the bar area and I’ll be spending my entire training here. This area is where desserts and beverages are prepared and served. My trainer let me familiarize in the area and demonstrate the different SOP in preparing Max’s products inside the bar area. I was worried back then that I can’t able to perform well in the station but good thing my trainer help me out and teach me everything so that in

Replication of Air pressure experiment Find an air filled ball that has an air input that will allow you to increase or decrease the air pressure. I used a rubber basketball but a leather basketball would have also worked. The smaller the ball, the harder it is going to be to see the differences in bounce height. Use an air pump and an air pressure gauge to put air in the ball and to measure the air pressure in the ball. Make sure you adjust the air pressure between bounces and measure and

For a process to be adequately controlled and manipulated, the variable of interest in the process (e.g. Temperature, Pressure or Flow) often called the Process Variable (PV) needs to be measured by a sensor which converts the measurement into a suitable signal format (4 – 20mA or digital) and then transmit it to a controller which makes the control decision and finally acts on a final control element in the control loop. What does this signal transmission is referred to as a transmitter. The schematic

Question# 1 The geocentric view of the universe was long since developed in ancient Greece by an astronomer named Claudius Ptolemy (AD 90- 168). Ptolemy believed that the sun, stars and other planets revolved around the earth. The idea of “Geocentric” means everything revolves around Earth. It wasn’t long until Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543), an astronomer from Poland came up with a new theory that the solar system actually revolved around the sun. He invented the idea of a solar system. Revolutions
