2. Landfill gas utilization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landfill_Gas_Utilization

   Landfill gas collection from capped landfill area. Landfill gas utilization is a process of gathering, processing, and treating the methane or another gas emitted from decomposing garbage to produce electricity, heat, fuels, and various chemical compounds. After fossil fuel and agriculture, landfill gas is the third largest human generated ...

3. Experimental Breeder Reactor II - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experimental_Breeder...

   The Experimental Breeder Reactor II. Experimental Breeder Reactor-II ( EBR-II) was a sodium-cooled fast reactor designed, built and operated by Argonne National Laboratory at the National Reactor Testing Station in Idaho. It was shut down in 1994. Custody of the reactor was transferred to Idaho National Laboratory after its founding in 2005.

4. Nuclear fuel cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_fuel_cycle

   The nuclear fuel cycle, also called nuclear fuel chain, is the progression of nuclear fuel through a series of differing stages. It consists of steps in the front end, which are the preparation of the fuel, steps in the service period in which the fuel is used during reactor operation, and steps in the back end, which are necessary to safely ...

5. Combined cycle power plant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_cycle_power_plant

   The cycle 1-2-3-4-1 which is the gas turbine power plant cycle is the topping cycle. It depicts the heat and work transfer process taking place in the high temperature region. The cycle a-b-c-d-e-f-a which is the Rankine steam cycle takes place at a lower temperature and is known as the bottoming cycle.

6. Thermal hydrolysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_hydrolysis

   Thermal hydrolysis is a two-stage process combining high-pressure boiling of waste or sludge followed by a rapid decompression. This combined action sterilizes the sludge and makes it more biodegradable, which improves digestion performance. Sterilization destroys pathogens in the sludge resulting in it exceeding the stringent requirements for ...

7. Controlled burn - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controlled_burn

   A controlled or prescribed (Rx) burn is the practice of intentionally setting a fire to change the assemblage of vegetation and decaying material in a landscape. The purpose could be for forest management, ecological restoration, land clearing or wildfire fuel management. A controlled burn may also refer to the intentional burning of slash and ...

8. Walker motifs - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walker_motifs

   The P-loop main chain is shown in red, the Mg 2+ ion as green sphere and the side chains of the amino acids K16 and S17 are shown as sticks. Walker A motif, also known as the Walker loop, or P-loop, or phosphate-binding loop, is a motif in proteins that is associated with phosphate binding. The motif has the pattern G-x (4)-GK- [TS], where G, K ...

9. Sequencing batch reactor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequencing_batch_reactor

   Sequencing batch reactors ( SBR) or sequential batch reactors are a type of activated sludge process for the treatment of wastewater. SBRs treat wastewater such as sewage or output from anaerobic digesters or mechanical biological treatment facilities in batches. Oxygen is bubbled through the mixture of wastewater and activated sludge to reduce ...
