    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  4. Reflux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflux

    The term reflux [1] [3] [4] is very widely used in industries that utilize large-scale distillation columns and fractionators such as petroleum refineries, petrochemical and chemical plants, and natural gas processing plants.

  5. Milk frother - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milk_frother

    The fats and proteins determine the thickness and the flavor of the foam. Milk that contains a heavier amount of fats and protein, such as whole milk, will produce a richer and thicker texture. [4] Contrastingly, frothing skim milk, which has significantly less amounts of fats and protein, will produce a lighter and thinner foam.

  6. Froth flotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Froth_flotation

    A mixture of ore and water called pulp [1] enters the cell from a conditioner, and flows to the bottom of the cell. Air [2] or nitrogen is passed down a vertical impeller where shearing forces break the air stream into small bubbles. The mineral concentrate froth is collected from the top of the cell [3], while the pulp [4] flows to another cell.

  7. Firefighting foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefighting_foam

    [1] The surfactants used must produce foam in concentrations of less than 1%. Other components of fire-retardant foams are organic solvents (e.g., trimethyl- trimethylene glycol and hexylene glycol ), foam stabilizers (e.g., lauryl alcohol ), and corrosion inhibitors .

    Steam distillation apparatus. Steam distillation is used in many of the recipes given in the Kitāb al-Taraffuq fī al-ʿiṭr ('Book of Gentleness on Perfume'), also known as the Kitāb Kīmiyāʾ al-ʿiṭr wa-l-taṣʿīdāt ('Book of the Chemistry of Perfume and Distillations'), attributed to the early Arabic philosopher al-Kindi (c. 801 –873).

  9. Decantation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decantation

    Decanting a liquid from a solid. Decantation is a process for the separation of mixtures of immiscible liquids or of a liquid and a solid mixture such as a suspension. [1] The layer closer to the top of the container—the less dense of the two liquids, or the liquid from which the precipitate or sediment has settled out—is poured off, leaving denser liquid or the solid behind.
