Treatment walls are structures installed underground to treat contaminated ground water found at hazardous waste sites. Treatment walls ... are put in place by constructing a giant trench across the flow path of contaminated ground water and filling it with one of a variety of materials (reactive fillings) carefully selected for the ability to clean up specific types of contaminants. As the contaminated ground water passes through the treatment wall, the contaminants are either trapped by the treatment wall or transformed into harmless substances that flow out of the wall.  2, record 1, English, - treatment%20wall

L'Institut de recherche sur les nappes d'eau souterraines a développé un système d'ingénierie pour le traitement passif de la contamination au nitrate provenant d'effluent de système septique. Le traitement s'effectue à la sous-surface à l'intérieur d'une couche réactive de média poreux ou d'un mur qui intercepte l'effluent. La couche réactive est augmentée avec une source de charbon organique sous phase solide qui active la biodégradation du nitrate par dénitrification [...] La barrière réactive peut être installée sous le champ du système septique comme couche horizontale qui empêche le nitrate d'atteindre la table d'eau ou elle peut être installée comme mur vertical pour traiter les descentes existantes de nitrate dans les aquasphères circulant à l'horizontal.  2, record 1, French, - paroi%20drainante

Synthetic diamond. A man-made diamond, produced either by subjecting carbon-bearing material such as graphite to high temperature and pressure or by the chemical vapor deposition(CVD) method. The Swedish company Allmana Svenska Elektriska Aktiebolaget(ASEA) is believed to have achieved the first repeatable synthesis of diamond in 1953, but their results were not published at the time; General Electric Company(GE) announced a successful synthesis of diamonds in 1954, followed by De Beers in 1959. Colors range from black to dark green, light green, red, yellow, blue, and colorless(Type IIa diamonds). Millions of carats of industrial-quality synthetic diamond are now manufactured annually using high pressure techniques; gem quality synthetic diamonds have been produced experimentally by De Beers Diamond Research Laboratories, General Electric Company...  3, record 3, English, - synthetic%20diamond

Les diamants synthétiques sont fabriqués à partir de graphite et d'isotopes de carbone. La méthode de fabrication de ces synthèses repose sur les conditions de cristallisation naturelles du diamant, c'est-à-dire des températures entre 1700 °C et 2760 °C avec 10 T/cm², et ce pendant plusieurs mois.  3, record 3, French, - diamant%20de%20synth%C3%A8se

Tactique de négociation selon laquelle la première offre de l'employeur, présumément réaliste et incorporant déjà le maximum possible de concessions, est aussi son offre finale. La méthode vise à supprimer le bluff que l'on retrouve habituellement dans les premières offres patronales ou les demandes syndicales. D'un autre côté, parce que l'employeur n'acceptera de modifier son offre que sur des points mineurs ou à la suite d'une preuve d'erreur de sa part, l'offre unique prend facilement le caractère d'un ultimatum. La formule doit son origine et son nom à Lemuel Boulware, ancien vice-président de la compagnie General Electric. Les syndicats s'en inspirent parfois.  2, record 5, French, - boulwarisme
