only did poisonous gas change the experiences of war‚ but also the type of warfare. Instead of riding around on horses freely‚ soldiers had to use protection in order to evade the deadly chemicals. So‚ quickly‚ both sides developed gas masks. At first‚ soldiers held chemically treated cotton pads over their noses and mouths. Later they wore fabric face masks soaked in chemicals‚ and finally soldiers on both sides wore respirators with charcoal filters.("Technology.") These gas masks were the new

Bangladesh has always been considered a natural gas rich country. It is largely available in the eastern part of the country extending from greater Sylhet down to greater Comilla‚ Noakhali and Chittagong. It has also been discovered offshore in the Bay of Bengal. Natural gas plays an important role in the country ’s economy. It is an environment friendly fuel‚ which undergoes clean and odorless combustion. It is widely used as fuel for domestic (cooking and heating)‚ industrial (metallurgical‚ ceramic

Greenhouse gas emission What is greenhouse gas? A greenhouse gas is a gas in an atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation within the thermal infrared range. Many greenhouse gases occur naturally‚ such as water vapor‚ carbon dioxide‚ methane‚ nitrous oxide‚ and ozone. Others such ashydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)‚perfluorocarbons (PFCs)‚ andsulfur hexafluoride (SF6) result only from human industrial processes. Greenhouse gases act like a blanket around Earth‚ trapping energy in the atmosphere and causing

The purpose of this lab was to use gas chromatography to determine the relative amounts of the three components of gas products from the dehydration reaction of 1- and 2-Butanol with sulfuric acid and the dehydrobromination reaction of 1- and 2-Bromobutane with potassium tert-butoxide. E1 reactions are two-step unimolecular reactions. The first step of an E1 reaction occurs when a leaving group‚ which consists of a weak base‚ leaves an organic compound‚ leaving an intermediate carbocation. In the

WHAT IS COAL SEAM GAS (CSG)? CSG is a naturally occurring methane gas which is known as Coal Bed Methane (CBM). It is a-by product of ancient plant matter that has formed over millions of years by the same natural processes which produce coal. Not long ago this gas was identified as a major problem in the underground coal mining industry due to it’s high flammability despite this‚ it is now recognised as a very profitable resource. The coal seams are generally filled with water and it is the

The global oil and gas industry also involves the exploration and production of commodity and energy trading‚ pipeline monitoring and renewable energy. Petroleum is proved to be one of the most valuable commodities in the world today and a vital factor in the sustenance of industrial civilization. Crude oil production accounts for a significant amount of the world’s oil consumption‚ approximately 53% in the Middle East‚ 32% in Europe and Asia‚ 44% in South and Central America‚ 41% in Africa and

Engineering Workshop 1 Exhaust Gas Treatment Index of contents Introduction Waste gas with harmful traces of gas must be burned in an afterburner. To destroy the harmful traces the temperature after the burner must achieve 900°C. The preheater can`t resist a temperature of 700°C. Therefore quench water in a mixer will be used to protect the heat exchanger. The waste gas has the following properties: Waste gas composition: Mole fraction(= 0‚9890
