The Mini Mopper blends the precision flow control of a small mopper with the carrying capacity of a large one. Screw-in plugs, on 1" centers, give the operator complete application control-simply remove more plugs to increase the area of coverage... A consistent coat of hot seals the quality of a well-built roof. No mop and bucket can match the speed and consistency of this low-cost durable all-steel dispenser. Whether you’re laying base sheet, insulation, felts or graveling-in, the Mini Mopper can fit the bill. 4, record 1, English, - mini%2Dmop

The process of continuously casting slab of under two inches in thickness. 1, record 2, English, - thin%2Dslab%20casting
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Strip casting technology permits the production of hot strips, also referred to as hot rolled coiled steel, directly from the liquid crude steel. Casting and rolling are linked into one continuous operation. Strip casting technology is... the last technology in realizing direct casting.... direct casting has been realized in a step-wise fashion : the thickness of the sheet or strip cast has been reduced by three innovative technologies, conventional continuous casting, thin slab casting and strip casting technology... The introduction of thin slab casting(1989) let the liquid steel be cast in thinner slabs... Blooms and billets cannot be produced with a thin slab caster. Thin slab casting technology integrates casting and the finishing operations in the hot rolling section of a steel plant. The cast slabs are charged directly into a reheater and subsequently fed into the hot rolling mill. The reheating capacity for hot rolling the slabs is thus reduced. 2, record 2, English, - thin%2Dslab%20casting

There are bound to be rainstorms whose water the soil cannot fully absorb-a point of major importance in arid and semi-arid areas, for this water can be collected and used to improve productivity locally. The following four water management methods and erosion control structures apply :. runoff harvesting(catching runoff for supplementary irrigation) ;. total absorption or infiltration;. runoff diversion(redirecting excess water) ;. runoff spreading(distribution of runoff energy).... Structures to dissipate runoff energy. When rainfall exceeds the soil' s absorption capacity, the sheet runoff can be controlled by spreading it across the whole slope rather than concentrating it in channels and outlets, where it can cause problems. Its energy can be dispersed by keeping the speed below 25 cm... Such dispersion across the slope is achieved partly by cropping techniques that keep the soil surface rough(clods, many grass stalks, effect of weeds and mulching, etc.) and partly by structures such as permeable microdams, which temporarily slow the flow, allow some sedimentation, spread the flood, reduce peak flows and improve absorption. 1, record 7, English, - runoff%20spreading
