ACID RAIN Cantarelli‚ Ilaria García Díaz‚ Bianca Gressier‚ Emilie Martínez Rivas‚ Carmen What’s the acid rain? Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitaton that is unusually acidic. What causes acid rain? Acid rain is caused by the burning of fossil fuels. Burning oil‚ gas and coal in power statons releases Sulphur Dioxide into the atmosphere. Burning oil and petrol in motor vehicles puts nitrogen oxides into the atmosphere. These gases mix with water droplets in the atmosphere creatng

The Carbon Cycle The element Carbon is the principle block for the organic compounds that make up life. This is because the study of the Carbon Cycle draws upon theories from biology‚ chemistry‚ geology and oceanography in order to understand the movement of carbon throughout the atmosphere‚ hydrosphere‚ and geosphere. Carbon is made up of four electrons that are able to form with each other; this causes the many different forms of carbon. The most popular form of carbon is carbon dioxide; this

Cycles in Biology Cycles in biology play a fundamental role in the world that we live in. Cycles occur all around and inside of us in many different forms‚ from the Krebs to the Calvin cycle. There are large scale cycles happening and they are essential in regulating the nutrients and substances that are around us which without‚ life on earth could no function. One of the largest cycles that occurs all around us is in everyday life is the carbon cycle. The current atmospheric

Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic‚ meaning that it possesses elevated levels of hydrogen ions (low pH). It can have harmful effects on plants‚ aquatic animals and infrastructure. Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide‚ which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids. Governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the release of sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere with positive results. Nitrogen

EMISSIONS FROM ADIPIC ACID AND NITRIC ACID PRODUCTION A C K N O WL E D G E M E N T S This paper was written by Heike Mainhardt (ICF Incorporated) and reviewed by Dina Kruger (USEPA). ABSTRACT Nitrous oxide (N2O) is generated as a by-product during the production of adipic acid and nitric acid. The main use for adipic acid is as a component of nylon-6/6; thus production trends are closely correlated with nylon consumption trends. Worldwide‚ there are very few adipic acid plants. The U.S. is

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Amino acids bind together to form polypeptide chains‚ and these polypeptides fold and coil together into specific conformations to form proteins. There are 20 different amino acids‚ each amino acid consisting of four distinct partners. The first is a carboxyl group. A carboxyl group has very weak acids that are able to donate hydrogen ions to biological reactions. The second partner is the amino acid group. Amino acid groups act as the base which‚

Acid Rain Within this past century‚ acidity of the air and acid rain have become recognized as one of the leading threats to our planet’s environment. No longer limited by geographic boundaries‚ acid causing emissions are causing problems all over the world. Some laws have been passed which limit the amount of pollutants that are released into the air‚ but tougher legislation must be implemented before this problem can be overcome. Acid rain is produced‚ when automobiles‚ smelters‚ power

1999 Adipic Acid (98/99-3) Currently operating commercial production processes for adipic acid depend on the production or purchase of KA oil (a mixture of cyclohexanone‚ the ketone or K component‚ and cyclohexanol‚ the alcohol or A component)‚ or of pure cyclohexanol‚ and its subsequent oxidation in solution to adipic acid using an excess of strong nitric acid. This report deals with KA oil/cyclohexanol production by various routes‚ followed by the common step of nitric acid oxidation. KA
