Preparation of Synthetic Banana Oil Introduction: In this lab the synthesis‚ purification‚ and characterization of isoamyl acetate‚ or banana oil‚ was determined. The synthesis was completed by a reversible esterification reaction which required the heating of glacial acetic acid and isoamyl alcohol‚ combined with a sulfuric acid catalyst in hexane. In order to increase the efficiency of the reaction‚ LeChatelier’s Principle is utilized by removing water from the products. As a result‚ the reaction

aMicroscale Synthesis of Isopentyl Acetate (Banana Oil) Objective: Carried out the microscale synthesis of isopentyl acetate by direct esterification of acetic acid and isopentyl alcohol. This was an acid catalyzed Fischer esterification. Both extraction and distillation were employed to obtain a pure product. IR spectroscopy and gas chromatography were used to determine purity of the final product. Reagents: * Compound: | * MW (g/mol): | * MP (°C): | * BP (°C): | * Density (g/mL):

BERGERAC CASE STUDY Summary The purpose of this report is to analyze the opportunity to produce plastic components for cartridge production and choose the best alternative. It is predicted that the annual demand growth is a triangular distribution with a minimum of 5%‚ most likely of 17% and a maximum of 25%. Due to the continuous growth in the demand‚ the alternatives cannot be compared using just the data for 2010. An analysis is carried out for the time period 2011 to 2015 and the present worth

Urine production If body fluids are hypo osmolar‚ then kidney will produces hypo osmolar urine. (Dilute urine) If body fluids are hyper osmolar (dehydration) then kidney produces hyperosmolar urine. (concentrated urine) In the renal cortex the osmolarity of interstitial fluid is 300mOs/L going to 1200mOs/L in the papilla. From the cortex to the papilla there is an increasing hyper osmolarity of the interstitial fluid. Cortico papillary osmolarity gradient. Urine with osmolarity more than 300mOs/l

CP-206: PRODUCTION AND OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT Production & Operations Management: Production is the process by which raw materials and other inputs are converted into finished products. The essential feature of production is to bring together people‚ machines and materials to provide goods and services and thereby to satisfy the wants of people. Since both manufacturing and service organizations involve the above-mentioned features‚ the term production management is gradually replaced by the
