Intermediate bulk containers (also known as IBC, IBC tote, or pallet tank) are industrial-grade containers engineered for the mass handling, transport, and storage of liquids, partial solids, pastes, granular solids [1] or other fluids. There are several types of IBCs with the two main categories being flexible IBCs and rigid IBCs. [2]
Common cap sizes include 33-430 (33mm), 38-430 (38mm), and GL 45 (45mm). Caps range in size from narrow mouthed to wide mouthed and often a glass or plastic funnel is needed to properly fill a reagent bottle from a larger or equal sized container's mouth.
A chemical tank is of necessity designed for a specific chemical. Chemicals have variable corrosion potentials, so the size and features of chemical tanks are diverse. Chemical resistance is usually the first priority in designing chemical tanks. Selected materials have to be as resistant to the chemical stored as design and economics allow.
The "Winchester quart" bottle first appeared in the UK in the 19th century with a capacity of two imperial quarts (half an imperial gallon), or exactly 2.273 045 L. [3] At the time, a system of dry capacity measures known as "Winchester" was still in use, while the Winchester bushel is still used in the US.
Mixing of liquids occurs frequently in process engineering. The nature of liquids to blend determines the equipment used. Single-phase blending tends to involve low-shear, high-flow mixers to cause liquid engulfment, while multi-phase mixing generally requires the use of high-shear, low-flow mixers to create droplets of one liquid in laminar, turbulent or transitional flow regimes, depending ...
Sizing or size is a substance that is applied to, or incorporated into, other materials—especially papers and textiles—to act as a protective filler or glaze.Sizing is used in papermaking and textile manufacturing to change the absorption and wear characteristics of those materials.
For example, a motorized pipette controller can aid liquid aspiration or dispensing using volumetric pipettes or graduated pipettes; [13] a tablet can interact in real-time with the pipette and guide a user through a protocol; [14] and a pipette station can help to control the pipette tip immersion depth and improve ergonomics.

The third edition of the Green Book (ISBN 978-0-85404-433-7) was first published by IUPAC in 2007.A second printing of the third edition was released in 2008; this printing made several minor revisions to the 2007 text.
