Centrifugation clarification scale-down to laboratory scale was based on Sigma theory (Ambler, 1959) where a constant ratio of the feed flow rate (Q) to the equivalent settling area was maintained (Boychyn et al., 2004; Maybury et al., 2000).
However, despite all the associated benefits, natural coagulants and polymers should be effectively applied to the process of water clarification in scale only after undergoing tests certifying its non-toxicity, biodegradability and viability.
As mentioned above, QD ties nicely in with quantitative data and is useful for mixed method inquiries since it is very suitable for intervention development or refinement, conceptual clarification underlying scale development and needs assessments, especially in vulnerable populations [ 3].
It is an extraordinary exercise in large-scale clarification.
Musk, having attempted to land the Falcon 9 several times at the beginning of the year, which ended in "rapid unscheduled disassembly" and other euphemisms for explosions, responded in kind with "clarifications" over the scale of Bezos's achievement.
The inset shows the same data plotted as a function of fluence on a linear scale for clarification of the behavior.
When there were uncertainties, we contacted the original developer of the scale for clarification.
To help patients integrate their values into the decision-making process, the 'weigh scale' values clarification exercise, developed by O'Connor et al. (1995), was adapted for use by lung cancer patients and incorporated into the DA.
Iyer's book makes it plausible that the boy from the Tibetan backwoods may be outlining, in his own frequently Forrest Gumpish way, "a process of mutual understanding and progressing self-clarification on a gigantic scale" — the process that Arendt believed necessary for halting the "tremendous increase in mutual hatred and a somewhat universal irritability of everybody against everybody else".
Unions, while welcoming the restart of work at Longbridge, are seeking clarification from Nanjing on the scale of its plans.
Important points identified for follow up were the need for a full understanding and description of methodology to measure input parameters, preferably with adoption of common reference standards across companies, and a need for greater clarification and justification of empirical scaling factors.
