Record 1 2004-01-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Coal-Derived Fuels
  • Anti-pollution Measures
CONT

The CCPC [Canadian Clean Power Coalition] plans to retrofit an existing coal-burning power plant by 2007 to produce at least 50 percent fewer CO2 emissions. The full-scale demonstration facility will be used to test the technical, environmental and economic viability of new clean coal-burning technology.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Combustibles dérivés des charbons
  • Mesures antipollution
CONT

La CCPC [Canadian Clean Power Coalition] prévoit réaménager d'ici 2007 une centrale électrique au charbon, dans le but d'en réduire les émissions de CO2 au moins de moitié. La centrale expérimentale permettra de tester la viabilité technique, environnementale et économique de la nouvelle technologie de combustion du charbon épuré.

OBS

Nous croyons qu'il s'agit davantage de techniques de combustion non polluantes que de techniques de combustion de charbons ayant déjà été épurés; il faut choisir entre les vedettes en fonction du contexte.

Record 3 1993-03-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Workplace Organization Research
  • Organization Planning
CONT

R & D projects move toward commercialization through several roughly defined stages : a prelaboratory phase, laboratory work(to garner scientific and engineering knowledge), engineering(to seek a basis for economic evaluation), pilot plant or prototype(to refine and prove the economic evaluation), and full-scale production.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Recherche et développement (Org. du travail)

Record 4 1993-02-02

English

Subject field(s)
  • Workplace Organization Research
  • Organization Planning
CONT

Project timing. Is progress toward commercialization in step with technical and economic readiness?

CONT

R & D projects move toward commercialization through several roughly defined stages : a prelaboratory phase, laboratory work(to garner scientific and engineering knowledge), engineering(to seek a basis for economic evaluation), pilot plant or prototype(to refine and prove the economic evaluation), and full-scale production. Project timing has to do with the series of decisions managers must make about when to move ahead with each of these stages.

Record 5 1989-03-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Mathematics
  • Environmental Studies and Analyses
  • Air Pollution
CONT

In the Alberta Oil Sands Experimental Study, the most commonly used formulas, namely Briggs ..., TVA 1971 and 1972 ... were selected to examine their predictive capability in determining the rise of the GCOS plume.

OBS

TVA 1971 and 1972. Two models for [delta] h were developed at the Air Quality Branch of the Tennessee Valley Authority by Montgomery et al(1971 & 1972). The formulas are based on a full-scale study of plume rise from a large electric generating plant. The first model follows that of Briggs and is based on the 2/3 law. The second however is not based on the 2/3 law but on a best fit to the experimental observations.

Record 6 1981-01-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Industrial Establishments
  • Wastewater Treatment
CONT

This apparatus can also be used at a full-scale flotation plant, particularly when the type of pollution changes and the flocculation parameters have to be varied.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Établissements industriels
  • Traitement des eaux usées
CONT

Cet appareil peut aussi bien être utilisé en exploitation d'une station de traitement par flottation, en particulier lorsque la pollution change et qu'il y a lieu de faire varier les paramètres de la floculation.
