  2. Water supply and sanitation in Belgium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_supply_and...

    Every Flemish person used to have the right to a minimal supply of 15 m 3 (41 liter/capita/day) of free water per person per year, but this benefit was revoked on January 1, 2016. [3] The average water tariff in Belgium for large users in 2008 was Euro 8.92 per cubic meter, the second-highest among 14 industrial countries compared in a recent ...

  3. Coo-Trois-Ponts Hydroelectric Power Station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coo-Trois-Ponts...

    The power station uses its water to support a power scheme where water is pumped from a lower reservoir to one of two upper reservoirs known as Coo I and Coo II. When energy demand is high, water can be released from these reservoirs for power generation. The water then returns to the lower reservoir and the process repeats as needed.

  4. Back pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_pressure

    Back pressure is the term used for the hydraulic pressure required to create a flow through a chromatography column in high-performance liquid chromatography, the term deriving from the fact that it is generated by the resistance of the column, and exerts its influence backwards on the pump that must supply the flow.

  5. LED-backlit LCD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LED-backlit_LCD

    An LED-backlit LCD is a liquid-crystal display that uses LEDs for backlighting instead of traditional cold cathode fluorescent (CCFL) backlighting. [1] LED-backlit displays use the same TFT LCD (thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display) technologies as CCFL-backlit LCDs, but offer a variety of advantages over them.

  6. Backlighting (lighting design) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlighting_(lighting_design)

    Three Persons viewing the Borghese Gladiator by candlelight, by Joseph Wright of Derby, 1765 Using backlighting, this portrait is improved by not allowing the harsh sunlight to cast hot spots on the faces AND by ringing the couple with an outlining effect, thus separating them from the background.

  7. Solar thermal collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_collector

    Solar water heating systems are most likely to be cost effective for facilities with water heating systems that are expensive to operate, or with operations such as laundries or kitchens that require large quantities of hot water. Unglazed liquid collectors are commonly used to heat water for swimming pools but can also be applied to large ...

  8. Vacuum pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_pump

    This is the principle behind a positive displacement pump, for example the manual water pump. Inside the pump, a mechanism expands a small sealed cavity to reduce its pressure below that of the atmosphere. Because of the pressure differential, some fluid from the chamber (or the well, in our example) is pushed into the pump's small cavity.
