Wildlife suffering from a tanker oil spill. Tar-like HFO coats and persistently sticks to feathers. The use and carriage of HFO in the Arctic is a commonplace marine industry practice. In 2015, over 200 ships entered Arctic waters carrying a total of 1.1 million tonnes of fuel with 57% of fuel consumed during Arctic voyages being HFO. [10]
Chemical structure of 1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234ze). Hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs) are unsaturated organic compounds composed of hydrogen, fluorine and carbon.These organofluorine compounds are of interest as refrigerants.
2,3,3,3-Tetrafluoropropene, HFO-1234yf, is a hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) with molecular formula CH 2 =CFCF 3. Its primary application is as a refrigerant with low global warming potential (GWP). [1] [2] As a refrigerant, it is designated R-1234yf [1] and marketed under the names Opteon YF by Chemours and as Solstice YF by Honeywell. [3]
No. 5 fuel oil is also called Navy Special Fuel Oil (NSFO) or just navy special; No. 5 or 6 are also commonly called heavy fuel oil (HFO) or furnace fuel oil (FFO); the high viscosity requires heating, usually by a recirculated low pressure steam system, before the oil can be pumped from a bunker tank. Bunkers are rarely labeled this way in ...
Ferrihydrite (Fh) is a widespread hydrous ferric oxyhydroxide mineral at the Earth's surface, [6] [7] and a likely constituent in extraterrestrial materials. [8] It forms in several types of environments, from freshwater to marine systems, aquifers to hydrothermal hot springs and scales, soils , and areas affected by mining.
trans-1,3,3,3-Tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234ze(E), R-1234ze(E)) is a hydrofluoroolefin. It was developed as a "fourth generation" refrigerant to replace fluids such as R-134a, as a blowing agent for foam and aerosol applications, and in air horns and gas dusters. [3] The use of R-134a is being phased out because of its high global warming ...
HFO may refer to: HealthForceOntario; Heavy fuel oil; Hybrid fibre-optic; Hydrofluoroolefin, a refrigerant; Hydrous ferric oxides; Hypofluorous acid; Halbleiterwerk ...
Some of them, such as HFO and HAO, are precipitated in highly porous poorly crystalline or amorphous forms and therefore are good adsorbents used for example in water treatment. [5] Some others are gels. Hydrous oxide films may be used an various applications such as electrocatalysis, supercapacitors, and sensors. [6] [7]
