Within our meta-analysis we plot the bed volumes (BV [m3water/m3GAC]) until the breakthrough criterion of MP-BV20% was reached, dependent on potential relevant parameters (empty bed contact time EBCT, influent DOC DOC0 and manufacturing method).
Episodes of infective bronchopulmonary breakthrough according to Ramsey criteria were also considered in the outcome measures [ 21] as well as the number of visits performed during the study period.
By comparing with the exact solution of the breakthrough curves, a general criterion for the applicability of the Q-LND probability density function and its integrating form was provided.
Mr. Leahy was somewhat optimistic, saying that he thought the compromise on medical criteria was "a breakthrough agreement".
Here, we build on this work to develop an overall transport model to predict macroscopic performance criteria such as breakthrough times and the dynamics of the filtration performance.
In this study, criteria for selecting breakthrough events were strict.
It is demonstrated how the model can be used to provide optimal design of layered beds, based on the criterion that simultaneous breakthrough takes place in the layers, i.e. for the strong component (CO2) in the weaker sorbent (carbon) and the weaker component (CO or CH4) in the strong sorbent (zeolite).
After including the DQC, we found that briefs for incrementally innovative products required a comparatively large focus on Expression and Performance criteria, while briefs for breakthrough innovative products needed a comparatively large focus on Context.
It has been shown numerically that stable cycles are obtained in the case where the cut points are chosen following a criterion based on the breakthrough volumes.
TOKYO--Thanks to new selection criteria that emphasize research breakthroughs with a practical impact, this year's Japan Prize is being awarded to an engineer whose work is advancing the digital age and a biologist with a strong environmental conscience.
