One of the oldest applications of homogenization is in milk processing. [7] It is normally preceded by "standardization" (the mixing of milk from several different herds or dairies to produce a more consistent raw milk prior to processing). [7] The fat in milk normally separates from the water and collects at the top. Homogenization breaks the ...
Detonation velocity is the speed with which the detonation shock wave travels through the explosive. It is a key, directly measurable indicator of explosive performance, but depends on density which must always be specified, and may be too low if the test charge diameter is not large enough.
An effective water filtration system will weed out chemicals, pesticides, lead, bacteria and other unhealthy elements. You should at least entertain the idea of abandoning nonstick pans entirely.
