5.1 MANUFACTURING PROCESSES: Acetone is produced directly or indirectly by propylene. Early processes for the manufacture of acetone were based on the thermal decomposition of calcium acetate or the carbohydrate fermentation of corn starch or molasses. The ready availability of propylene in the 1960s led to routes based on the dehydrogenation of isopropyl alcohol or cumene peroxidation. (1) By Cumene Oxidation (Hock Process). Propene is added to benzene [71-43-2] to form cumene [98-82-8]‚ which

INTRODUCTION Cement is a binder‚ a substance that sets and hardens independently‚ and can bind other materials together. The word "cement" traces to the Romans‚ who used the term opus caementicium to describe masonry resembling modern concrete that was made from crushed rock with burnt lime as binder. The volcanic ash and pulverized brick additives that were added to the burnt lime to obtain a hydraulic binder were later referred to as cementum‚ cimentum‚ cäment‚ and cement. Cement is made by grinding

Media Production There are many things to consider when creating a film‚ music video or animation. How much will it cost? Who needs to be employed? How long will it take? These are the main questions that need to be answered before anyone even begins to create a piece of media. Personnel Producer Producers are the main individuals in television‚ film and video production. The initial idea for a project often comes from a producer‚ who will oversee each project from beginning to end and may also

MRI of the Knee Materials utilized for the procedure KC Hutchins The materials used in the MRI of the knee are surface coils‚ volume coils‚ knee positioning pads‚ sandbags‚ and Gadolinium‚ in the case of a Magnetic Resonance Angiogram. Firstly‚ in some cases‚ a surface coil is used. They are of the simplest design‚ a loop of conducting material. It is used as a transmitter of radiofrequency energy. This receiver coil is placed on the region of interest or the knee‚ in this example‚ for greater

Rapid Industrialization completely altered the global scenario and quality of product or services rendered by any industry became the backbone. Quality may be defined as “Degree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfill the requirement”. Production centric organizations failed miserably due to their approach towards the quality of product or service. Due to LPG (Liberalization‚ Privatization and Globalization) customer has the complete autonomy for his demands and hence his pleasure turned
