  2. Buffer solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_solution

    For alkaline buffers, a strong base such as sodium hydroxide may be added. Alternatively, a buffer mixture can be made from a mixture of an acid and its conjugate base. For example, an acetate buffer can be made from a mixture of acetic acid and sodium acetate. Similarly, an alkaline buffer can be made from a mixture of the base and its ...

  3. Pressure tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_tank

    A simple control system for a water well. Referring to the figure on the left, a submersible water pump is installed in a well. The pressure switch turns the water pump on when it senses a pressure that is less than P lo and turns it off when it senses a pressure greater than P hi. While the pump is on, the pressure tank fills up.

  4. Bicarbonate buffer system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_buffer_system

    The bicarbonate buffer system is an acid-base homeostatic mechanism involving the balance of carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3), bicarbonate ion (HCO − 3 ), and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) in order to maintain pH in the blood and duodenum , among other tissues, to support proper metabolic function. [ 1 ]

  5. McIlvaine buffer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McIlvaine_buffer

    McIlvaine buffer is a buffer solution composed of citric acid and disodium hydrogen phosphate, also known as citrate-phosphate buffer. It was introduced in 1921 by the United States agronomist Theodore Clinton McIlvaine (1875–1959) from West Virginia University , and it can be prepared in pH 2.2 to 8 by mixing two stock solutions.

  6. Degassing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degassing

    New applications are in inkjet systems where gas in the ink forms bubbles that degrade print quality, a degassing unit is placed prior to the print head to remove gas and prevent the buildup of bubbles keeping good jetting and print quality. The above three methods are used to remove all dissolved gases. Below are methods for more selective ...

  7. TAPS (buffer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TAPS_(buffer)

    TAPS ([tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]propanesulfonic acid) is a chemical compound commonly used to make buffer solutions. It can bind divalent cations, including Co(II) and Ni(II). [1] TAPS is effective to make buffer solutions in the pH range 7.7–9.1, since it has a pK a value of 8.44 (ionic strength I = 0, 25 °C). [2]
