  2. Caffenol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caffenol

    Caffenol is a photographic alternative process whereby phenols, sodium carbonate and optionally vitamin C are used in aqueous solution as a film and print photographic developer. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Other basic (as opposed to acidic ) chemicals can be used in place of sodium carbonate; however, sodium carbonate is the most common.

  3. Gasoline pill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_pill

    Water on the other hand consists of hydrogen and oxygen (H 2 O). It would be necessary to introduce 8 parts carbon for every 9 parts of water to make any conversion of the form 18 H 2 O + X → 2 C 8 H 18 + 9 O 2. work, where X is the gasoline pill. A mole of water has a mass of 18.0146 grams, while a mole of carbon has a mass of 12.01 grams ...

  4. Carl von Linde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_von_Linde

    Carl Paul Gottfried von Linde (11 June 1842 – 16 November 1934) was a German scientist, engineer, and businessman. He discovered the refrigeration cycle and invented the first industrial-scale air separation and gas liquefaction processes, which led to the first reliable and efficient compressed-ammonia refrigerator in 1876.

    The refining industry could not concentrate on large capacity conversion processes for so many grades and a solution had to be found. By 1941, principally through the efforts of the Cooperative Fuel Research Committee, the number of grades for aviation fuels was reduced to three: 73, 91, and 100 octane. [39]

    He also recorded the differences in weight between freshwater and saline water, and between hot water and cold water. [ citation needed ] During his experiments on fluid mechanics, Biruni invented the conical measure , [ 6 ] in order to find the ratio between the weight of a substance in air and the weight of water displaced.

  7. Outline of fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_fluid_dynamics

    In physics, physical chemistry and engineering, fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that describes the flow of fluids – liquids and gases. It has several subdisciplines, including aerodynamics (the study of air and other gases in motion) and hydrodynamics (the study of water and other liquids in motion).

  8. Gasoline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline

    Gasoline should ideally be stored in an airtight container (to prevent oxidation or water vapor mixing in with the gas) that can withstand the vapor pressure of the gasoline without venting (to prevent the loss of the more volatile fractions) at a stable cool temperature (to reduce the excess pressure from liquid expansion and to reduce the ...

  9. Flow chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_chemistry

    The gas reactions that have been most successfully adapted to flow are hydrogenation and carbonylation, [9] [10] although work has also been performed using other gases, e.g. ethylene and ozone. [11] Reasons for the suitability of flow systems for hazardous gas handling are: Systems allow the use of a fixed bed catalyst. Combined with low ...
