Wasting – illustrated most starkly, as its name suggests, by the child that is literally wasting away to skin and bones – is the crushing result of acute malnutrition and poses an immediate threat to survival.
The most recent valorization strategies for cereal based biorefinery wastes are illustrated in Tables 2 and 3 and detailed in the following sections.
The waste example illustrates how ecologically themed issues can displace others in science museums.
The difference between short-lived high-level nuclear waste and long-lived low-level waste an be illustrated by the following example.
The treatment of uncertainty in performance assessments for the geological disposal of radioactive waste is discussed and illustrated.
Then, the technologies available for waste heat recovery are illustrated in terms of heat pumps, heat exchangers, heat pipes, boilers, refrigeration cycles, power cycles and heat storage according to the transfer mode of waste heat within the recovery process.
This paper reviews documented environmental effects experience from the disposal of solid waste materials in the U.S. Selected case histories are discussed that illustrate waste migration and its actual or potential effects on human or environmental health.
"Carbon Credits Gone Awry Raise Output of Harmful Gas" ("Chilling Effect" series, front page, Aug. 9), about the effect of the United Nations' carbon credit program in driving increased production of a coolant with a harmful waste gas byproduct, illustrates the key drawbacks of carbon credit programs, cap and trade, and related schemes.
This paper summarized some corrosion issues specific to nuclear waste disposal and illustrates them by the French geological clay concept for the reliable prediction of container degradation rate and engineering barrier integrity over extended periods, up to several thousands years.
The study includes a systematic survey of the chemical composition of the Nd-Fe-B magnets found in the selected waste streams, which illustrates the evolution of the Nd-Fe-B alloys over the years.
