  2. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

    The factor–label method can convert only unit quantities for which the units are in a linear relationship intersecting at 0 (ratio scale in Stevens's typology). Most conversions fit this paradigm. An example for which it cannot be used is the conversion between the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale (or the Fahrenheit scale). Between degrees ...

  3. Water softening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_softening

    A study found the mean concentration of sodium in softened water to be 278 mg/L. [24] In 2 liters of water—the amount of drinking water typically suggested for an average adult, this constitutes about 22% of the recommended sodium intake by the US CDC and may make a difference to those who need to significantly limit their sodium consumption.

  4. Micronization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micronization

    Traditional micronization techniques are based on friction to reduce particle size. Such methods include milling, bashing and grinding.A typical industrial mill is composed of a cylindrical metallic drum that usually contains steel spheres.

  5. Calgon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calgon

    It gave rise to derivative products which have diverged from the original composition. Today, Calgon water softener contains the active ingredient sodium citrate, [2] and the now discontinued powder used zeolite and polycarboxylate, all of which are less problematic in wastewater treatment than phosphates.

    Hosokawa Micron Powder Systems is an American company located in Summit, New Jersey, which designs and manufactures equipment for size reduction, classification [1] [2] and mixing [3] of chemical, [4] pharmaceutical [5] and food materials. The company was started in 1923 by Louis Ruprecht named Pulverizing Company and was later bought by the ...

  7. Total dissolved solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_dissolved_solids

    where TDS is expressed in mg/L and EC is the electrical conductivity in microsiemens per centimeter at 25 °C. The conversion factor k e varies between 0.55 and 0.8. [5] Some TDS meters use an electrical conductivity measurement to the ppm using the above formula. Regarding units, 1 ppm indicates 1 mg of dissolved solids per 1,000 g of water. [6]

  8. Potassium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_chloride

    Intravenously, the LD 50 of potassium chloride is far smaller, at about 57.2 mg/kg to 66.7 mg/kg; this is found by dividing the lethal concentration of positive potassium ions (about 30 to 35 mg/kg) [37] by the proportion by mass of potassium ions in potassium chloride (about 0.52445 mg K + /mg KCl). [38]

  9. Free base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_base

    Extraction kits for converting the hydrochloride to the base are commercially available. [2] Freebasing also tends to remove water-soluble impurities and adulterants such as sugars (lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, inositol), which are often added to street cocaine. Cocaine freebase is only slightly soluble in water (1 in 600 of water) as ...
