Solar Thermal Propulsion(STP)... uses large area deployable concentrators to focus the Sun's energy on a small heat exchanger, called an absorber, which is cooled by hydrogen gas propellant. The absorber transfers the concentrated heat energy from the Sun to the hydrogen gas. As the gas is heated, it expands and is directed outward through a nozzle. This expanding gas provides enough thrust in the microgravity environment of low earth orbit to transfer the vehicle to a higher energy, geosynchronous orbit around the Earth where the satellite operates.  2, record 3, English, - solar%20thermal%20propulsion

maîtriser la pollution : Ce terme veut dire que l'on règle de façon satisfaisante un problème de pollution. «Lutter contre la pollution» et «combattre la pollution» se rapportent davantage aux actions entreprises pour en arriver à ce résultat. Des termes plus spécifiques comme «réduire la pollution» ou «dépolluer» peuvent être utilisés dans certains contextes, lorsque l'on désire décrire la solution envisagée pour régler le problème.

To recover liquid hydrocarbons from natural or refinery gas in a gas-absorption plant. The wet gas enters the absorber at the bottom and rises to the top, encountering a stream of absorption oil(a light oil or similar fraction) traveling downward over bubble-cap trays. The lighter fraction removes, or absorbs, the heavier liquid hydrocarbons from the wet gas.  2, record 6, English, - absorb

Sagan and Mullen suggested that ammonia(NH3), an efficient absorber of infrared, could have warmed the climate if the gas represented just 100 out of every million molecules of the air. Subsequent studies have shown, however, that the sun would have rapidly converted ammonia into the nongreenhouse gases nitrogen and hydrogen unless it was continually resupplied to the atmosphere from the plant's surface.  1, record 8, English, - nongreenhouse%20gas

Le monoxyde de carbone (CO), les oxydes d'azote et les composés organiques volatils (COV) n'ont pas de propriétés radiatives et, par conséquent, n'ont aucun effet radiatif direct : ce sont des gaz sans effet de serre. Pourtant leur présence dans l'atmosphère influe sur la concentration d'autres gaz qui, eux, contribuent (effet radiatif direct) à l'effet de serre; c'est le cas du CO sur le méthane et des NOx sur l'ozone. C'est généralement ce qu'on entend par gaz sans effet de serre. Le même terme sert aussi, quoique plus rarement, à désigner des substances qui n'ont rien à voir avec l'effet de serre, comme le krypton ou l'hydrogène.  2, record 8, French, - gaz%20sans%20effet%20de%20serre

To maximize isotopic exchange, it is very important that the [hydrogen sulphide] in the units be maintained at a very high purity(99. 5%). Unfortunately, the natural water, although treated, still contains small quantities of dissolved oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and other gases. If not removed continuously, these gases would accumulate and decrease the [hydrogen sulphide] purity. A continuous gas purge is drawn from the top of each firs stage cold tower and send to the purge tower where the [hydrogen sulphide] is absorbed by the incoming water. The gaseous impurities proceed from the purge tower to the absorber where any remaining [hydrogen sulphide] is absorbed. The gases, essentially [hydrogen sulphide] free, are then flared. The flare is used in this case to burn any [hydrogen sulphide] that might not have been absorbed.  1, record 12, English, - gaseous%20impurity

Lavage de gaz : le gaz sous pression, par exemple des hydro-carbures gazeux contenant de l'hydrogène sulfuré ou du gaz carbonique, rencontre à contre-courant une solution d'éthanolamine dans la colonne (colonne à plateaux, garnissage spraypack, etc). La solution introduite au sommet de la colonne a été régénérée et contient un minimum de gaz acide. Avant d'être évacué, le gaz traverse un dévésiculeur, matelas métallique par exemple, qui évite les entraînements liquides. La solution extraite à la base, riche en [gaz carbonique] et [en hydrogène sulfuré] est envoyée après réchauffage dans une colonne de régénération (également à plateau ou garnie) ou elle est débarrassée des gaz acides. La température dans cette colonne est supérieure à 100 °C.  2, record 12, French, - impuret%C3%A9%20gazeuse
