    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_Media

    Compound Media (formerly The Anthony Cumia Network) is an American subscription-based platform for audio and video podcasts. It was launched as The Anthony Cumia Network in 2014 by radio personality Anthony Cumia , who began hosting The Anthony Cumia Show on it after his firing from SiriusXM .

  3. Hydrothermal synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrothermal_synthesis

    Hydrothermal synthesis can be defined as a method of synthesis of single crystals that depends on the solubility of minerals in hot water under high pressure. The crystal growth is performed in an apparatus consisting of a steel pressure vessel called an autoclave, in which a nutrient is supplied along with water. A temperature gradient is ...

  4. Phase-change material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-change_material

    Ice, for example, requires 333.55 J/g to melt, but then water will rise one degree further with the addition of just 4.18 J/g. Water/ice is therefore a very useful phase change material and has been used to store winter cold to cool buildings in summer since at least the time of the Achaemenid Empire .

  5. Quenching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quenching

    During this step, the part is submerged into some kind of quenching fluid; different quenching fluids can have a significant effect on the final characteristics of a quenched part. Water is one of the most efficient quenching media where maximum hardness is desired, but there is a small chance that it may cause distortion and tiny cracking.

  6. Hydrothermal liquefaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrothermal_liquefaction

    As early as the 1920s, the concept of using hot water and alkali catalysts to produce oil out of biomass was proposed. [6] In 1939, U.S. patent 2,177,557, [7] described a two-stage process in which a mixture of water, wood chips, and calcium hydroxide is heated in the first stage at temperatures in a range of 220 to 360 °C (428 to 680 °F), with the pressure "higher than that of saturated ...

  7. Dihydrogen monoxide parody - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydrogen_monoxide_parody

    Dihydrogen monoxide is a name for the water molecule, which comprises two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H 2 O).. The dihydrogen monoxide parody is a parody that involves referring to water by its unfamiliar chemical systematic name "dihydrogen monoxide" (DHMO, or the chemical formula H 2 O) and describing some properties of water in a particularly concerning manner — such as the ...

    They measured the compound’s concentration content in a range of chloraminated U.S. water systems, detecting levels as high as about 100 micrograms per liter — surpassing most regulatory ...

  9. Limescale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limescale

    Calcium, magnesium, and carbonate ions dissolve from rocks through which rainwater percolates before collection. Calcium salts, such as calcium carbonate [citation needed] and calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO 3) 2), are more soluble in hot water than cold water; thus, heating water does not cause calcium carbonate to precipitate per se.
