Record 2 2005-08-02

English

Subject field(s)
  • Platemaking (Printing)
  • Printing Machines and Equipment
DEF

[A] technology [which] provides for the direct transfer of the image from digital files to the image carrier (plate) of the press.

OBS

A direct imaging press is basically a conventional offset press except that the image carrier(plate) is imaged directly on the press with built-in laser exposure units. Many of the press settings, such as plate registration, ink flow, and cleanup are adjusted with digital information as well. Unlike a true digital press, which can vary the image on every printed sheet, the image cannot be varied during a press run on a direct imaging press.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Waste Management
CONT

According to Manahan(1990), application of chemical treatment technologies to waste cleanup depends on the chemical properties of the contaminants in the waste media : acid-base, precipitation and complexing properties as well as redox potential, reactivity, inflammability/combustibility, corrosivity and compatibility with other contaminants.

Key term(s)
  • waste clean-up
  • waste clean up

French

Domaine(s)
  • Gestion des déchets
CONT

Selon Manahan (1990), l'application des technologies de traitement chimique pour la dépollution des déchets dépend des propriétés chimiques des contaminants présents dans les matrices de déchets à traiter à savoir : acide-base, oxydation-réduction, précipitation, complexion, réactivité, inflammabilité/combustibilité, corrosivité et compatibilité avec les autres contaminants.

Record 4 1988-04-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • Oil Production

Domaine(s)
  • Production pétrolière
CONT

L'injection cyclique (de vapeur) combine les effets favorables de la réduction de viscosité de l'huile par effet thermique et du nettoyage éventuel des abords du puits.
