Structure of liquids and glasses The presence of non-bridging oxygens lowers the relative number of strong bonds in the material and disrupts the network, decreasing the viscosity of the melt and lowering the melting temperature. The alkali metal ions are small and mobile; their presence in a glass allows a degree of e...

Structure of liquids and glasses Si-O bond lengths vary between the different crystal forms. For example, in α-quartz the bond length is 161 pm, whereas in α-tridymite it ranges from 154–171 pm. The Si-O-Si bond angle also varies from 140° in α-tridymite to 144° in α-quartz to 180° in β-tridymite. In amorphous silica (...

In this context, process design refers to the discipline taught primarily to chemical engineers. However, the emergin...

Process miniaturization But the costs to design and fabricate the vessel have traditionally been less sensitive to scale. In other words, one can design a small vessel and fabricate it for about the same cost as the larger vessel. In addition, the cost to control and operate a process (or a process unit component) does...

Process miniaturization A microprocess has the following characteristics: The microprocess design philosophy has been largely envisioned by historical analysis of the role that component miniaturization has played in the information technology industry. It is the evolution of the miniaturization of computer hardware th...

Process miniaturization Process control of the future will involve the widespread utilization of intelligent sensors, and mass-produced intelligent miniaturized devices such as programmable logic controllers that communicate wirelessly to process actuators. Since these devices will be miniaturized to reduce manufacturi...

Process miniaturization It will become more difficult to control intellectual property through the traditional method of patents; therefore, trademarks, brand recognition, and copyright laws will play a more important role in value security for knowledge-based businesses of the future. Techno-economic analysis, as taug...

Process miniaturization Historically, small processes or microprocesses "per se" have always existed. For example, small vineyards and breweries have produced feedstock, processed it, and stored product in what could be considered “microprocess” when compared to processes designed based on the petrochemical industry mo...

Process miniaturization Since fossil fuels by definition are being consumed and are non-renewable, future fuel and materials will be based on renewable biomass. The conversion of biomass into energy is perhaps more challenging to the technologist than energy from fossil fuels. Water, dissolved organic and inorganic com...

Process miniaturization These systems can run on agricultural, animal and human waste streams using naturally occurring bacteria. Nuclear power is considered "green technology" in that it does not produce carbon dioxide, a green house gas, as do traditional natural gas or coal-fired power plants. The economics of the d...
