  2. Synthesis of bioglass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthesis_of_bioglass

    Bioactive glasses have been synthesized through methods such as conventional melting, quenching, the sol–gel process, flame synthesis, and microwave irradiation.The synthesis of bioglass has been reviewed by various groups, with sol-gel synthesis being one of the most frequently used methods for producing bioglass composites, particularly for tissue engineering applications.

  3. Water heat recycling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heat_recycling

    Installation of a double-walled copper-on-copper heat exchanger in a vertical section of the master drain line in a Canadian home (2007) Water heat recycling (also known as drain water heat recovery, waste water heat recovery, greywater heat recovery, [citation needed] or sometimes shower water heat recovery [citation needed]) is the use of a heat exchanger to recover energy and reuse heat ...

  4. Circulator pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulator_pump

    The traditional hot water recirculation system uses the existing cold water line as return line from the point of use located farthest from the hot water tank back to the hot water tank. The first of two system types has a pump mounted at the hot water heater while a "normally open" thermostatic control valve gets installed at the farthest ...

  5. Compost heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compost_heater

    The traditional compost heater exploits the heat of a large compost heap to warm a house. This type requires a big heap, intertwined with a spiral water hose. The circulating water conducts heat to the building, where it can be fed to a heating circuit. The heap must contain at least 8,000 liters of biomass to maintain a temperature during the ...

  6. Bioactive glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioactive_glass

    Bioactive metallic glass is a subset of bioactive glass, wherein the bulk material is composed of a metal-glass substrate and is coated with bioactive glass in order to make the material bioactive. The reasoning behind the introduction of the metallic base is to create a less brittle, stronger material that will be permanently implanted within ...

  7. Water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

    An 80 US gal (300 L; 67 imp gal) electric storage tank water heater was able to have a minimum energy factor of 86% under the pre-2015 standard, while under the 2015 standard, the minimum energy factor for an 80-gallon electric storage tank water heater is now 197%, which is only possible with heat pump technology. This rating measures ...

  8. Circulating water plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulating_Water_Plant

    A circulating water plant or circulating water system is an arrangement of flow of water in fossil-fuel power station, chemical plants and in oil refineries. The system is required because various industrial process plants uses heat exchanger , and also for active fire protection measures.

  9. Bioglass 45S5 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioglass_45S5

    The formation of neocartilage can also be induced with bioactive glass by using an in vitro culture of chondrocyte-seeded hydrogels and can serve as a subchondral substrate for tissue-engineered osteochondral constructs. [1] The borate-based bioactive glass has controllable degradation rates in order to match the rate at which actual bone is ...
