Due to the development of the sensor tehcnology it is possible to manufacture wireless multi-degrees of freedom controllers at reasonable costs. We have tested one manufactured by a small finnish start-up company in controlling real-time sound synthesis parameters. According to our experience, it is very suitable for it.

The compound HFC-23 (Trifluoromethane or CHF3), a potent greenhouse gas with a 100-year global warming potential of 11,700, is generated as a by-product during the manufacture of HCFC-22 (chlorodifluoromethane or CHClF2). This paper outlines options and issues for good practice guidance in the national inventory management of HFC-23 emissions from HCFC-22 production. The issues presented are or...

We report the manufacture of novel graphene diode sensors (GDS), which are composed of monolayer graphene on silicon substrates, allowing exposure to liquids and gases. Parameter changes in the diode can be correlated with charge transfer from various adsorbates. The GDS allows for investigation and tuning of extrinsic doping of graphene with great reliability. The demonstrated recovery and lon...

Tri-ortho-cresyl phosphate (T.O.C.P.) is an organic phosphorus compound commonly used in industry as a plasticizer, and is so used in the manufacture of lacquers, dopes, synthetic fabrics, and synthetic lignin resin; it is used as a water-proofing agent in textile manufacture. It is said to be an excellent grinding medium for pigments; it is also used in making polyvinyl chloride sheeting and f...

a series of experiments were designed to utilize the taguchi method for investigating the effects of important parameters on the synthesis of nax zeolite and to find the best conditions of synthesis. an l9 orthogonal design of taguchi approach was applied to design experiments consisting of 9 trails. the effect of molar composition, including sio2/al2o3 and na2o/al2o3 ratios, and the crystalliz...

Carbon molecular sieve membranes (CMSMs) are an important alternative for gas separation because of their ease of manufacture, high selectivity due to molecular sieve separation, and high permeance. The integration of separation by membranes and reaction in only one unit lead to a high degree of process integration/intensification, with associated benefits of increased energy, production effici...

The ability to manufacture and manipulate components at the micro-scale is critical to the development of micro systems. This paper presents the technique to manipulate micro/nano parts at the micro/nano-scale using an integrated Focused Ion Beam (FIB) system composed of scanning electron microscope, micro manipulator and gas injection system. Currently the smallest gears manufactured with trad...

INTRODUCTION The conversion of synthesis gas to methanol is practiced commercially in gas phase fixed bed reactors over a Cu/Zn/Al,O1 catalyst. However, because of the highly exothermic nature of the synthesis reactions, heat dissipation has been a bottleneck in the reactor design and process configuration. Moreover, coalderived synthesis gas, having a low H,/CO ratio, is not suitable for use i...
