– Jolson Automotive Hoist Problem: How should Jolson Automotive increase its sales. Alternatives: 1. Do nothing. 2. Get U.S. Wholesalers to “push” the Jolson Lift and establish NY sales office. 3. Enter into a licensing option with French firm Bar Maisse. 4. Enter into a joint venture with Bar Maisse. 5. Directly invest in the German market without the help of Bar Maisse. Recommendation: Alt. 1 (Do nothing) --- REJECT: Mark Jolson wants to expand‚ he just doesn’t know where. Alt

Wittfogel was that of ‘hydraulic civilizations’ (Minnery 2010a). Hydraulic civilizations were described as those whose agricultural system was reliant upon significant government-directed water systems for irrigation and flood management (Encyclopædia Britannica 2010). Wittfogel listed that Egypt‚ India‚ Mesopotamia‚ Northern China and pre-Columbian Mexico and Peru were examples of hydraulic civilizations (Minnery 2010a). This paper will focus on the theories of the Wittfogel’s hydraulic civilization and

Introduction: Hydraulic fracturing is the process in which a mixture of chemicals and water are used in combination to stimulate wells and expose minerals that previously would have been much too expensive to access using tradition methods. With the process comes some detrimental environmental consequences‚ like water contamination‚ due to the chemicals used in the liquid mixture. According to an Earthworks article‚ only 0.5 to 2.0% of the “frack fluid” volume content is made up of chemicals‚ which

How Much Gas is Produced? Julie Dang June 23‚ 2013 Purpose The Company ABC Chemical has asked our group to investigate the gas production from a number of various chemical reactions. The company would like us to measure the amount of product we get when we measure the amount of gas from two reactions. We will then compare our data to the predicted amount which will we will calculate based of the Law of conservation of Mass and Ideal Gas Laws. Methods Materials Thermometer CaCO3

which would relate to the topic of Hydraulic Fracturing. What is Hydraulic Fracturing you may say? According to Propublica.org‚ Hydraulic Fracturing is the process used in 9 out of 10 natural gas wells in the United States‚ Where millions of water‚ sand and chemicals are pumped underground to break apart the rock and release the gas. The main purpose for Hydraulic Fracturing is due to its inexpensive extraction. Over the past decade‚ the combination of Hydraulic Fracturing and horizontal drilling

Characteristics of a Good Hydraulic Fluid Viscosity Viscosity is a measure of a hydraulic fluid’s resistance to flow. It is a hydraulic fluid’s most important characteristic and has a significant impact on the operation of the system. When a hydraulic oil is too thin (low viscosity)‚ it does not seal sufficiently. This leads to leakage and wear of parts. When a hydraulic oil is too thick (high viscosity)‚ the fluid will be more difficult to pump through the system and may reduce operating

Hydraulic Fracturing Part A: A Background on Hydraulic Fracturing Hydraulic Fracturing‚ otherwise know as fracking‚ is a relatively new development in natural gas extraction industry. Even though natural gas extraction has been around for decades‚ the process of mining for natural gas in dense shale was not economically feasible until now. As defined by what-is-fracking.com‚ “Hydraulic fracturing is the process of drilling for natural gas and oil underneath the ground‚” (1). In order

Course Project Week 2 ReyDel Veenstra Hydraulic Fracturing What is Hydraulic Fracturing: Hydraulic fracturing or “fracking” is a well stimulation process used to maximize the extraction of underground resources including oil and natural gas. Hydraulic fracturing involves the pressurized injection of a mixture of water‚ chemicals‚ and sand in underground formations to allow natural gas and oil to flow more freely from rock pores to the surface.
