how the use of water in everyday life takes place in different industries. Also mentioned are the ways in which the different industries can reduce their consumption of water in different processes: 1Food Processors- The main use of water in the food processing industries include washing and sanitation‚ cooling and heating and a lot of other tertiary functions. In order to conserve water in this industry‚ the water must be reused in other processes‚ like rinsing water can be used in

Isolation & Identification of the Major Constituent of Clove Oil with Steam Distillation The purpose of this laboratory experiment was to isolate and characterize clove oil in order to understand how to isolate organic compounds with high boiling points‚ how to perform and interpret qualitative tests for organic compound functionality‚ and to continue to learn how to perform and interpret IR spectrometry. Steam distillation was used in order to prevent the organic compound from decomposing at

Introduction Fresh water is an indispensable resource for human livelihood‚ agricultural irrigation and economic development (Brooks‚ 2007). However‚ due to the rapid population growth and the limited reserves‚ increasing regions have faced serious scarcity of fresh water (Williamson‚ 2010). Saudi Arabia is one of the driest countries in the world (CIA‚ 2011). According to World Bank (2011)‚ the world average fresh water consumption is nearly 7000m³/year/person‚ while the water resource per capita

| Desalinization of Water | | | Sara Reed‚ Myp2 | | Chemistry | | * Our world consists of 70% of water‚ from which‚ only 2.5% is fresh water‚ and 1% is drinkable water. Because of this low drinkable water rate‚ desalinization is a very important process which will help us provide a higher percentage rate. * Desalination is a process in which salt water is turned into fresh water‚ by extracting its water and minerals. Desalination is used on many ships and submarines

09/19/11 Objective: In steam distillation lab (lab 3)‚ we must obtain pure Eugenol from cloves through the process of steam distillation. In the crystallization lab (lab 4) part 1‚ we must acquire the best possible pure crystallization of acetylsalicylic acid from aspirin and in part 2 we must obtain a similar pure crystallization of benzil from an impure mixture of benzil. Materials: In lab 3‚ we used 75 g of cloves from which we must extract Eugenol. Water was largely used as a solvent. A

Water resources are sources of water that are useful or potentially useful. Uses of water include agricultural‚ industrial‚ household‚ recreational and environmental activities. Virtually all of these human uses require fresh water. 97% of the water on the Earth is salt water. However‚ only three percent is fresh water; slightly over two thirds of this is frozen in glaciers and polar ice caps.[1] The remaining unfrozen freshwater is found mainly as groundwater‚ with only a small fraction present

It is no secret that bottled water costs more than tap water‚ but is it reasonable to state it costs 1‚000 times more? It is very difficult to give an exact number for the difference between the two‚ but 1‚000 to 2‚000 times more is a reasonable estimate. This is based on the fact that on average‚ a gallon of bottled water costs $1.22. Protesters against bottled water industries use the highest prices of water bottles they can find as a way to show a bigger contrast between the two‚ essentially
