Decibel Scale
When looking at the most versatile and amazingly sound devices, nothing can compare to the human ear. With its ingenious internal mechanisms and physiology, the human ear can adjust its sensitivity to increasing sound levels and handle a vast array of sound power levels. In short, this astounding piece of natural machinery can detect the sound of a nearby pin hitting the floor, and can also ...

Mechanisms of scale deposition and scale removal in porous media
Calcium sulfate scaling and scale removal have been studied experimentally and theoretically in a well-defined unconsolidated porous medium. The effects of injection rate, scale concentration and temperature on the rate of scale formation and the rate of its removal are investigated. The results of the experiments are used to develop mechanistic models for the prediction of the scaling process in ...

Scale Interactions in Water: GAO Report on Deepwater Horizon
The challenge is to articulate the conditions under which scale imposed constraints are systematic and to develop models that compensate or standardize scale-based variation. Following this point of view, different model structures would be needed to accurately represent the phenomenon at different scales. For instance, studies of water demands at the national or sub-national scale would need ...

Economies of scale in the water sector: a survey of the empirical literature
The issue of the most favorable size and optimal industry structure in the water sector is a relevant topic in many countries, due to fragmentation of the water sector and the key role played by municipalities. Important debates are taking place worldwide about how to provide universal access to the water supply and offer an efficient service. Regarding efficiency, the possibility of exploiting ...

Predicting tool for sulphate scale build-up around the wellbore in oilfield
Formation and deposition of scale in porous media due to extensive use of seawater for oil displacement and pressure maintenance is a problem that results in production decline and loss of billions of dollars to the petroleum industry yearly. A variety of models are presently being used in the oil industry for predicting scaling tendency and average scales precipitation inside the reservoir. ...

Research on the synthesis and scale inhibition performance of a new terpolymer scale inhibitor
A new terpolymer named β-CD-MA-SSS was produced using free-radical polymerization of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), maleic-anhydride (MA) and sodium-styrene-sulfonate (SSS) as monomers, with potassium persulfate (KPS) as initiator. Its performance as a scale inhibitor to prevent deposition of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) has been investigated. Experimental results demonstrated that β-CD-MA-SSS performed ...

Effects of scale and Froude number on the hydraulics of waste stabilization ponds
This paper presents the findings from a series of computational fluid dynamics simulations to estimate the effect of scale and Froude number on hydraulic performance and effluent pollutant fraction of scaled waste stabilization ponds designed using Froude similarity. Prior to its application, the model was verified by comparing the computational and experimental results of a model scaled ...

Key issues of ultrafiltration membrane water treatment plant scale-up from laboratory and pilot plant results
Industrial-scale ultrafiltration (UF) membrane systems have gained wide acceptance for producing safe drinking water. Laboratory and pilot plant studies are often carried out prior to the design of full-scale water treatment plants. Emphases are laid on how accurately these laboratory and pilot plant studies represent actual industrial-scale systems and the limitations. A case study which ...

Combined effect of constant high voltage electrostatic field and variable frequency pulsed electromagnetic field on the morphology of calcium carbonate scale in circulating cooling water systems
Research on scale inhibition is of importance to improve the heat transfer efficiency of heat exchangers. The combined effect of high voltage electrostatic and variable frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields on calcium carbonate precipitation was investigated, both theoretically and experimentally. Using energy dispersive spectrum analysis, the predominant phase was found to be CaCO3. The ...

Advancements in Scaling Calculations and an in depth look at Antiscalant dosing for stressed waters and high recovery systems
Abstract Over the past few decades the Reverse Osmosis (RO) industry has observed an increase in applications in challenging waters. Water sources that were never considered suitable for RO are now commonplace, including municipal waste streams, industrial waste, and even mining waste. Furthermore, regulatory restrictions, environmental obligations, solid waste expenses, and water supply ...

Measurement Science and Technology Paper - Potential for improved radiation thermometry measurement uncertainty through implementing a primary scale in an industrial laboratory
A primary temperature scale requires realising a unit in terms of its definition. For high temperature radiation thermometry in terms of the International Temperature Scale of 1990 this means extrapolating from the signal measured at the freezing temperature of gold, silver or copper using Planck's radiation law. The difficulty in doing this means that primary scales above 1000 °C require ...
