English

Subject field(s)
  • Transportation of the Future
  • Astronautics
CONT

A rocket belt creates thrust by using pressurized nitrogen to push hydrogen peroxide into a chamber where thin silver plates break it down into heat, oxygen and water. The water is so hot it turns to steam and goes shooting out the belt's nozzles at supersonic speed giving thrust.

Record 2 2022-05-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • Bast Fibres (Textiles)
  • Fibre Crops
CONT

The preliminary mechanical processing of the dried [hemp] stalks involves some fairly vigorous handling of the raw material, including breaking, scutching and the separation of the line fibres from the tow and other by-products. The stronger, more solid fibre bundles keep their original lengths and parallelism. During breaking and scutching the weaker and shorter fibres(tow), especially those at the foot of the stalks, break away and are removed together with the hurds, dust, soil, etc.... The hurds are removed pneumatically and may be sold for use as natural fertiliser, for the heat insulation of buildings, as fuel or as animal litter... The hemp tow is then passed through a conveyer drier that can use either hot or cold air.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Fibres textiles libériennes
  • Culture des plantes textiles
DEF

Résidu fibreux et grossier de la filasse [de chanvre].

Record 3 2011-06-21

English

Subject field(s)
  • Food Industries
  • Beverages
CONT

The hot break system results in a product rich in pectin of high viscosity and with a very low syneresis(the separation of the liquid from the solids, caused by the failure to inactivate the enzymes that transform the pectin into serum). This type of product, of high consistency, is particularly suitable as a semi-finished product for the production of sauces, catsup, ragu and other by-products.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Industrie de l'alimentation
  • Boissons (Industrie de l'alimentation)
OBS

Température d'extraction pour faciliter la séparation de la peau des tomates après broyage.

OBS

Les tomates sont soumises à un échaudage rapide aussitôt après broyage dans un échangeur de chaleur. Ce réchauffement facilite la séparation de la peau et vise à inactiver les pectine-estérases.

DEF

A slow composting technique where the compost pile doesn’t get hot and the material takes longer to break down.

Cold composting ... The time required to decompose organic matter using this method is governed, to a large extent, by environmental conditions and could take two years or more.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Techniques agricoles
  • Fumure et amélioration du sol
  • Agriculture biologique
OBS

Il existe deux méthodes de compostage aérobie selon que la pile se réchauffe ou non. Une pile de compost à «froid» se décomposera aussi bien que la pile à «chaud», mais il lui faudra plus de temps.

CONT

... a hospital allowed the recycling metal dealer to dismantle their generators in the nuclear medicine hot lab. All of the spent generators, including those less than 2 months old, were dismantled. The brutal method of opening the generators caused one of the molybdenum cores to break open.

CONT

Récemment, un hôpital a permis à un marchand de ferrailles de démanteler les générateurs de son laboratoire de médecine nucléaire. Tous les générateurs épuisés, y compris ceux qui avaient moins de deux mois, ont été démantelés. Vu la méthode brutale utilisée pour ouvrir les générateurs, une des colonnes de molybdène s'est rompue et la contamination a été répandue à travers tout le département [...]
