  2. Bragg's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg's_law

    This equation, Bragg's law, describes the condition on θ for constructive interference. [12] A map of the intensities of the scattered waves as a function of their angle is called a diffraction pattern. Strong intensities known as Bragg peaks are obtained in the diffraction pattern when the scattering angles satisfy Bragg condition.

  3. Hicks equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hicks_equation

    In fluid dynamics, Hicks equation, sometimes also referred as Bragg–Hawthorne equation or Squire–Long equation, is a partial differential equation that describes the distribution of stream function for axisymmetric inviscid fluid, named after William Mitchinson Hicks, who derived it first in 1898.

  4. Laue equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laue_equations

    Laue equation. In crystallography and solid state physics, the Laue equations relate incoming waves to outgoing waves in the process of elastic scattering, where the photon energy or light temporal frequency does not change upon scattering by a crystal lattice. They are named after physicist Max von Laue (1879–1960).

  5. Metabolic waste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_waste

    These compounds form during the catabolism of carbohydrates and lipids in condensation reactions, and in some other metabolic reactions of the amino acids. Oxygen is produced by plants and some bacteria in photosynthesis, while CO 2 is a waste product of all animals and plants. Nitrogen gases are produced by denitrifying bacteria and as a waste ...

  6. Lignocellulosic biomass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lignocellulosic_biomass

    Xylan is one form of hemicellulose found in hardwood. [9] Lignocellulose consists of three components, each with properties that pose challenges to commercial applications. [10] lignin is a heterogeneous, highly crosslinked polymer akin to phenol-formaldehyde resins. It is derived from 3-4 monomers, the ratio of which varies from species to ...

  7. Mass balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_balance

    In the absence of a chemical reaction the amount of any chemical species flowing in and out will be the same; this gives rise to an equation for each species present in the system. However, if this is not the case then the mass balance equation must be amended to allow for the generation or depletion (consumption) of each chemical species.

  8. Sewage sludge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sewage_sludge

    Sewage sludge treatment is the process of removing contaminants from wastewater.Sewage sludge is produced from the treatment of wastewater in sewage treatment plants and consists of two basic forms — raw primary sludge and secondary sludge, also known as activated sludge in the case of the activated sludge process.

  9. Biodegradable waste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biodegradable_waste

    Biodegradable waste includes any organic matter in waste which can be broken down into carbon dioxide, water, methane, compost, humus, and simple organic molecules by micro-organisms and other living things by composting, aerobic digestion, anaerobic digestion or similar processes.
