OBS

The mission of Military Sealift Command is to provide ocean transportation of equipment, fuel, supplies and ammunition to sustain U. S. forces worldwide during peacetime and in war for as long as operational requirements dictate. During a war, more than 95 percent of all equipment and supplies needed to sustain the U. S. military is carried by sea. MSC provides the sea transportation component for the United States Transportation Command.

Subject field(s)
  • Spacecraft
CONT

Environment Control and Life Support System(ECLSS) : The orbiter's Environmental Control and Life-Support System purifies the cabin air, adds fresh oxygen, keeps the pressure at sea level, heats and cools the air, and provides drinking and wash water. The system also includes lavatory facilities. The cabin is pressurized to sea level(14. 7 psi) with 21 percent oxygen and 79 percent nitrogen, comparable to Earth's atmosphere. The air is circulated through lithium hydroxide/charcoal canisters which remove carbon dioxide. The canisters are changed on a regular basis. Excess heat from the cabin and flight-deck electronics is collected by a circulating coolant water system and transferred to radiator panels on the payload bay doors where it is dissipated. The fuel cells produce about seven pounds of water each hour. It is stored in tanks, and excess water is dumped overboard. The lavatory unit collects and processes body waste, and also collects wash water from the personal hygiene station. The lavatory unit, located in the middeck area, operates much like those on commercial airlines but is designed for a weightless space environment.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Waste Management
  • Nuclear Waste Materials
  • Compartment - Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission
CONT

A number of disposal methods for nuclear fuel wastes have been suggested internationally, including ejection of the waste into outer space; transmutation of the radioactive elements; emplacement in a polar ice cap; and burial within various geological formations, both on the continents and beneath the sea floor.

CONT

Of the various disposal concepts which have been suggested for LLW, only three were compatible with the geological characteristics of the CRNL property: burial in excavated sand trenches with minor engineered features to inhibit nuclide migration, containment in an engineered below-ground vault; and emplacement in a shallow mined cavity rock.

Key term(s)

Plusieurs méthodes d'évacuation des déchets de combustible nucléaire ont été suggérées à travers le monde, y compris le lancement des déchets dans l'espace, la transmutation des éléments radioactifs, le dépôt sous la calotte polaire et l'enfouissement à l'intérieur de diverses formations géologiques, soit sous terre, soit sous les fonds marins.

CONT

Des stockages par enfouissement à faible profondeur sont réalisés aux États-Unis, en Grande-Bretagne, en U.R.S.S., au Canada et en France. Dans les deux premiers pays, le stockage se fait sur des déchets pas ou peu conditionnés, dans des tranchées en pleine terre.

Record 8 1998-10-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • Animal Biology
CONT

A small yet growing opportunity exists for biochemists and engineers interested in turning "extremozymes" into industrial catalysts. In nature, these peculiar enzymes fuel microbes that live in scalding sea vents, hot springs, and other adverse locales. Such hardiness means extremozymes might function in hotter, more high-pressure manufacturing conditions than can today's industrial enzymes. As a result, extremozymes could speed up or maximize reactions used to make food, detergents, and drugs; remediate toxic waste; and drill for oil.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Biologie animale
CONT

Enfin, les sources volcaniques souvent très chargées en ions minéraux, abritent des organismes acido- ou alcalinophiles, c'est-à-dire, résistant aux pH extrêmes. On connaît donc des sources potentielles d'enzymes résistant aux conditions industrielles. Reste à produire ces «extrêmozymes» à grande échelle.

Subject field(s)
  • Waste Management
  • Nuclear Waste Materials
  • Glaciology
CONT

Other disposal options aiming at long-term isolation of wastes from the biosphere were also considered but not pursued, during many years of evolution of the geological disposal strategy. They include: a) disposal concepts such as deposition in polar ice caps or extraterrestrial space which are difficult to implement and poorly controllable; and b) disposal under the deep ocean floor, for which international agreement would be difficult to obtain.

CONT

A number of disposal methods for nuclear fuel wastes have been suggested internationally, including ejection of the waste into outer space; transmutation of the radioactive elements; emplacement in a polar ice cap; and burial within various geological formations, both on the continents and beneath the sea floor.

CONT

Parmi les solutions envisagées pour le confinement des déchets hors de la biosphère, mais qui n'ont finalement pas été retenues, depuis que le concept de dépôt en milieu géologique évolue, on peut citer : a) l'évacuation dans les calottes glaciaires des pôles ou dans l'espace extraterrestre, concepts difficilement réalisables et contrôlables; b) l'évacuation sous les fonds océaniques, pour laquelle il serait difficile d'obtenir un accord de la communauté internationale.

Plusieurs méthodes d'évacuation des déchets de combustible nucléaire ont été suggérées à travers le monde, y compris le lancement des déchets dans l'espace, la transmutation des éléments radioactifs, le dépôt sous la calotte polaire et l'enfouissement à l'intérieur de diverses formations géologiques, soit sous terre, soit sous les fonds marins.
