  2. Intensive animal farming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_animal_farming

    Maintaining a more specific temperature within the pig-tolerance range also maximizes growth and growth to feed ratio. In an intensive operation pigs will lack access to a wallow (mud), which is their natural cooling mechanism. Intensive piggeries control temperature through ventilation or drip water systems (dropping water to cool the system ...

  3. File:Temperature-relative humidity chart - PMV method.pdf

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Temperature-relative...

    The representation is made on a temperature-relative humidity, instead of a standard psychrometric chart. The comfort zone in blue represents the 90% of acceptability, which means the conditions between -0.5 and +0.5 PMV, or PPD < 10%.

  4. Intensive pig farming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_pig_farming

    Pigs have a limited tolerance to high temperatures and heat stress can lead to death. Maintaining a more specific temperature within the pig-tolerance range also maximizes growth and growth-to-feed ratio. Indoor piggeries have allowed pig farming to be undertaken in countries or areas with unsuitable climate or soil for outdoor pig raising. [8]

  5. List of polyurethane applications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_polyurethane...

    Polyurethane chemicals are injected by a mixing head into the mold cavity. Then the mold is held at a preset reaction temperature until the chemical mixture has foamed, filled the mold, and formed a stable soft foam. The time required is two to three minutes, depending on the size of the seat and the precise formulation and operating conditions.

  6. Polyurethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyurethane

    The methods of manufacturing polyurethane finished goods range from small, hand pour piece-part operations to large, high-volume bunstock and boardstock production lines. Regardless of the end-product, the manufacturing principle is the same: to meter the liquid isocyanate and resin blend at a specified stoichiometric ratio, mix them together ...

  7. Rendering (animal products) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_(animal_products)

    The temperature range used may be high or low. Rendering may be done either in discrete batches or in a continuous process. The processing plant may be operated by an independent company that buys input material from suppliers, or by a packing plant that produces the material in-house.

  8. Thermoplastic polyurethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic_polyurethane

    Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is any of a class of polyurethane plastics with many properties, including elasticity, transparency, and resistance to oil, grease, and abrasion. Technically, they are thermoplastic elastomers consisting of linear segmented block copolymers composed of hard and soft segments.

  9. Moisture cure polyurethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_cure_polyurethane

    A range of NCO/OH eq. ratios from 1.2 - 1.6 was used. Thermal and mechanical properties of moisture cured polyurethane-urea /clay nanocomposite coatings have been studied in relationship to clay dispersion and intercalation of clay platelets in the urethane-urea matrix. [ 4 ]
