[[R].sub.i,s] is the reactant i concentration for the ventilation inlet,
As can be seen from the formula (6) we need to know the in-reactor chemicals volume V and concentration of reactant causing the heat development c (or the number of mole n instead) to determine the rate constant.
The reactive distillation process was tried to increase the reaction rate of BD disappearance for taking a high purity of HBA after the reaction and the process parameters were optimized to run the reactive distillation process without a serious problem, such as polymerization of reactants and products.
For a patient to meet this criteria, the patient must have at least 20% improvement in tender and swollen joint counts and must improve by at least 20% in three of five of the remaining core set measures which include: physician's and patient's global assessment of disease activity, patient's assessment of pain and physical function, and an acute-phase reactant value.
Pulsed plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) of silicon nitride thin films from ammonia and silane reactant gas mixtures were studied to correlate measurements of reactant gas concentration and temperature with film deposition thickness and purity.
A Phoenix-based fire-protection company has introduced a latex-based fire reactant that can be painted on buildings to dramatically reduce damages in the event of a fire.
The enzyme (or the catalyst, more usually) offered a surface to which the reactant could attach under circumstances that allowed it to undergo the reaction much more readily.
These were indifferent boredom (relaxed, withdrawn, indifferent), calibrating boredom (uncertain, receptive to change/distraction), searching boredom (restless, active pursuit of change/distraction) and reactant boredom (high reactant, motivated to leave a situation for specific alternatives).
The reaction is carried out by combining a reactant stream of the titanium halide and a reactant stream of the oxygen-containing gas in a reaction zone of a vapor phase oxidation reactor at a temperature of at least 700 [degrees] C; introducing a particle size control agent into the reaction zone to control the particle size of the titanium dioxide, the particle size control agent including an ionizing agent and fumed silica; and separating the titanium dioxide particles from the gaseous reaction products.
