INTRODUCTION Diamond Chemicals a major global competitor in the chemical industry and a leading producer of polypropylene. In 2001 the Corporation was facing losses in earnings and the slowdown of the global economy. The Earning per Share (EPS) had fallen by 50% from 1999 to 2000. The controller of the plant in Merseyside proposed a project of £9 million to renovate and rationalize the polypropylene production line at the plant to compensate for deferred maintenance and to exploit opportunities

Chemical Reactions Chemical Reactions Introduction In this paper you learn about the reactions that occur between backing soda and lemon juice. We will also describe what is occurring with the molecules on a molecular level. Lastly we will explain what chemical bonds are formed and or broken when lemon juice and backing soda. Observations of the Reactants When most people hear baking soda they think of the bright orange box sitting in their pantry or refrigerator soaking up the foul odors

Heat Equation from Partial Differential Equations An Introduction (Strauss) These notes were written based on a number of courses I taught over the years in the U.S.‚ Greece and the U.K. They form the core material for an undergraduate course on Markov chains in discrete time. There are‚ of course‚ dozens of good books on the topic. The only new thing here is that I give emphasis to probabilistic methods as soon as possible. Also‚ I introduce stationarity before even talking about state classification

Band broadening theory (Van Deemter equation) It is well recognized now that column band broadening originates from three main sources: 1. multiple path of an analyte through the column packing; 2. molecular diffusion; 3. effect of mass transfer between phases. In 1956 J.J. Van Deemter introduced the equation which combined all three sources and represented them as the dependence of the theoretical plate height (HETP) on the mobile phase linear velocity. Originally‚ it was introduced for gas

BERNOULLI AND ENERGY E Q U AT I O N S his chapter deals with two equations commonly used in fluid mechanics: the Bernoulli equation and the energy equation. The Bernoulli equation is concerned with the conservation of kinetic‚ potential‚ and flow energies of a fluid stream‚ and their conversion to each other in regions of flow where net viscous forces are negligible‚ and where other restrictive conditions apply. The energy equation is a statement of the conservation of energy principle and is applicable

quadratic equation is an equation that has a second-degree term and no higher terms. A second-degree term is a variable raised to the second power‚ like x2. When you graph a quadratic equation‚ you get a parabola‚ and the solutions to the quadratic equation represent where the parabola crosses the x-axis. A quadratic equation can be written in the form: quadratic equation‚ where a‚ b‚ and c are numbers (a ≠0)‚ and x is the variable. x is a solution (or a root) if it satisfies the equation ax2 +
