... liquefaction, was historically linked to hydrogenation and other high-pressure (10-30 MPa) thermal decomposition processes which employed reactive hydrogen or carbon monoxide carrier gases to produce a liquid fuel from organics at moderate temperatures (300-400°C). However, over the past decade, liquefaction has often been used in the literature to encompass any thermochemical conversion process which primarily yields a liquid tar/oil product (pyrolysis is therefore included with hydrogenation as being "liquefaction").  3, record 1, English, - liquefaction

Para licuar el aire, primero hay que comprimirlo con una bomba y hacerlo pasar por un tanque de enfriamiento. [...] el aire se enfría a -194°C, en que se licúa, y puede guardarse. [...] El mejor método de separar los gases del aire es la licuación del mismo.  4, record 1, Spanish, - licuefacci%C3%B3n

The sudden large decrease of the shearing resistance of a cohesionless soil. It is caused by a collapse of the structure by shock or other strain and is associated with a sudden, temporary increase of the interstitial water pressure. It involves a temporary transformation of the material into a fluid mass.  1, record 2, English, - liquefaction

Baisse importante et soudaine de la résistance au cisaillement d'un sol sans cohésion. Cette baisse est due à un effondrement de la structure causé par un choc ou une autre force, et est associée à un accroissement subit et temporaire de la pression de l'eau interstitielle. Ce phénomène comporte une transformation temporaire de la matière en une masse fluide.  1, record 2, French, - liqu%C3%A9faction%20spontan%C3%A9e
