Il est important de connaître au mieux la variation de X1 dans la ZTM [zone de transfert de masse], appelée courbe de rupture, d’une part pour apprécier la longueur de cette zone par rapport à la longueur de la colonne et d’autre part pour prévoir le moment où le courant de gaz effluent de la colonne cesse d’être formé par le gaz 2 pur, c'est-à-dire le moment où le gaz 1 commence à «percer» la colonne(point de rupture), ce qui a lieu avant l'arrivée théorique du front idéal [...]. La quantité de gaz 2 pur recueilli sera donc inférieure à la quantité stœchiométrique [...] et cela d’autant plus que l'étalement de la ZTM sera plus grand. 1, record 2, French, - courbe%20de%20rupture

Les plastiques biodégradables pour lutter contre la pollution c'est évidemment l'idéal. Mais beaucoup d’entre eux disparaissent seulement à la vue sans être totalement digérés par les microbes du sol. Voici la nouvelle génération des plastiques écologiques [...] Le Biopol est obtenu à partir de glucose par fermentation d’une bactérie appelée Alcaligenes Eutrophus et qui stocke le biopolymère comme un humain de la graisse. Ce plastique naturel, le polyhydroxy butyrate(en abrégé PHB) se dégrade à 100% en quelques semaines pour donner de l'eau et du gaz carbonique. 3, record 3, French, - plastique%20biod%C3%A9gradable
