Capillary Rise of Ground Moisture : Moisture travels upward by capillary action--as much as 14 to 18 gallons per day have been noted under a 1, 000 square-foot house--and evaporates within the crawl space. Capillary rise occurs in nearly all areas where the soil is clay or silt. Capillary action is the effect of surface tension that causes water to rise up a narrow tube, against the effect of gravity. In building construction, capillary action can occur between two surfaces placed together, or within porous materials. This relates to the installation of wood flooring in that moisture can be drawn through both the subfloor and the concrete below it.  4, record 1, English, - capillary%20rise%20of%20soil%20moisture

Dans un sol non saturé le sens du flux est en fait commandé par le gradient de potentiel, c'est-à-dire que l'eau diffuse dans le sens décroissant du potentiel total. Il existe souvent une zone où le potentiel total passe par un maximum. Au-dessus de cette zone, le flux est ascendant par ascension capillaire; au-dessous, il est descendant par percolation.  3, record 1, French, - ascension%20capillaire%20de%20l%27eau%20dans%20le%20sol

Experimentation with noise barriers has been going on for an extensive length of time. It has been found that different materials are more effective than others in deflecting noise. Some of the materials used are : pre-cast concrete, earth berms, aluminum, wood and porous concrete... These barriers can usually be incorporated in the existing right-of-way...

El carbón vegetal es un producto sólido, frágil y poroso con un alto contenido en carbono (del orden del 80%). Se produce por calentamiento en ausencia de aire (hasta temperaturas de 400 a 700 °C) de madera y otros residuos vegetales. [...] El proceso de calentamiento de materiales orgánicos en ausencia de aire se denomina pirólisis o carbonización. [...] Por lo general se utiliza el término [...] carbonización cuando (como en el caso del carbón vegetal) el proceso se dirige hacia la obtención del producto sólido resultante (carbonizado).  4, record 3, Spanish, - carb%C3%B3n%20de%20le%C3%B1a

Color removal. The brown color of pulp mill effluents originates with the wood handling, chemical pulping and bleaching operations, and is due to the presence of tannin and lignin derivatives.... Coagulation processes are now preferentially applied to wastewaters following secondary treatment because of more complete color removal. It has also been found that the biological process itself causes the formation of additional color. The rapid infiltration process appears to be a good choice for color removal at mill sites with suitable topography and subsoil characteristics. In this method, the wastewater is percolated through porous subsoil strata before reaching the receiving water. The color is removed by adsorption and precipitation onto soil particles. Because the soil strata becomes rather rapidly saturated, it is necessary to operate a number of basins intermittently, allowing time between dosages for regeneration of the adsorbing surfaces.  1, record 8, English, - rapid%20infiltration%20process

Suppression de la couleur. La couleur marron des effluents des usines de pâtes et papiers provient des opérations de manutention du bois, de la mise en pâte par un procédé chimique et du blanchiment; elle est due à la présence de tannins et de dérivés de la lignine. [...] L'infiltration rapide est une technique apparemment très prometteuse utilisée pour supprimer la couleur quand la topographie et les caractéristiques du sous-sol le permettent : l'effluent percole à travers les strates poreuses du sous-sol avant d'arriver au niveau des eaux réceptrices, et les produits colorés sont éliminés par adsorption et précipitation sur les particules du sol. Comme le sol se sature rapidement, il faut utiliser plusieurs bassins en alternance afin de disposer d'un temps suffisant pour régénérer les surfaces adsorbantes. La régénération du terrain se produit par oxydation biologique naturelle.  1, record 8, French, - infiltration%20rapide
