  2. Cryofixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryofixation

    Typically, a sample is plunged into liquid nitrogen or into liquid ethane or liquid propane in a container cooled by liquid nitrogen. The ultimate objective is to freeze the specimen so rapidly (at 10 4 to 10 6 K per second) that ice crystals are unable to form, or are prevented from growing big enough to cause damage to the specimen's ...

  3. Liquefaction of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefaction_of_gases

    Liquefaction processes are used for scientific, industrial and commercial purposes. Many gases can be put into a liquid state at normal atmospheric pressure by simple cooling; a few, such as carbon dioxide, require pressurization as well.

  4. Bromoethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromoethane

    Bromoethane, also known as ethyl bromide, is a chemical compound of the haloalkanes group. It is abbreviated by chemists as EtBr (which is also used as an abbreviation for ethidium bromide ). This volatile compound has an ether-like odor.

  6. Pumpable ice technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumpable_ice_technology

    Typically, the equipment for the production, accumulation and supplying of pumpable ice includes an ice maker, a storage tank, a heat exchanger, piping, pumps, and electrical and electronic appliances and devices. Pumpable ice with maximum ice concentration of 40% can be pumped straight from the ice maker to the consumer. The final possible ice ...

  7. Icemaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icemaker

    Sea water flake ice machine can make ice directly from the seawater. This ice can be used in the fast cooling of fish and other sea products. The fishing industry is the largest user of flake ice machines. Flake ice can lower the temperature of cleaning water and sea products, therefore it resists the growth of bacteria and keeps the seafood fresh.

  8. Steam cracking - Wikipedia

    Steam cracker process diagram Gibbs free energy per carbon atom. This shows that at high temperature, hexane can split into ethane and ethylene ("Ethen"), and ethane can split into ethylene and hydrogen. But ethylene can decompose into methane and carbon if given too much time, and all the hydrocarbons can decompose into carbon and hydrogen.

  9. Horton sphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horton_Sphere

    The Horton sphere is named after Horace Ebenezer Horton (1843–1912), founder and financier of a bridge design and construction firm in about 1860, merged to form the Chicago Bridge & Iron Company (CB&I) in 1889 as a bridge building firm and constructed the first bulk liquid storage tanks in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
