Henry Pooley & Son. Henry Pooley & Son Ltd was a mechanical engineering company specialising in the manufacture of weighing machines. It was based in Liverpool and later in Birmingham, England.

The company was absorbed into W & T Avery. An example of the company's weighing machines can be found on Platform 2 of Ipswich railway station in Suffolk.  There is also a luggage weighing scale made by Pooley on the railway station platform at Haverthwaite in Cumbria. 

Another example of the companies weighing machine can be seen in Ezhukone Railway station, Kerala, India, which is a part of the kollam-Sengottai section of Indian Railways. The machine is still functional and is used even today. The Kollam–Sengottai section is part of the Kollam–Chennai metre-gauge rail route commissioned by the British in 1904.

Another example of the companies railway engine weighing scales can be found in the grounds of the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery in Launceston, Tasmania, Australia.

Another example of the companies agricultural weighing scales in its original position can be found in the grounds of Cragend Farm, Northumberland England United Kingdom.

Another example of the companies engine weighing equipment can be found at the Surrey Hills Community Centre on Union Road, Surrey Hills, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

A Locomotive Balancing Table made for the Victorian Railways in 1912 can be found at the Newport Workshops in Melbourne, Australia. It is operational and used regularly to weigh & balance steam locomotives by Steamrail Victoria.

Permanganate index. The permanganate index is an assessment of water quality. It involves the detection of oxidation by potassium permanganate in an acid medium under hot conditions.

The method is to heat a sample in a boiling water-bath with a known amount of potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid for a fixed period time (10 min). Part of the permanganate will be reduced by oxidizable material in the sample. The consumed permanganate can be determined by addition of an excess of oxalate solution, followed by titration with permanganate. The method applies to waters having a chloride ion concentration of less than 300 mg/L. Samples having a permanganate index over 10 mg/L should be diluted before analysis. The lower limit of the optimum range of the test is 0.5 mg/L.

The permanganate index method is not recommended for waste water because some organic compounds are not oxidized or incompletely oxidized.

Koldam Dam. The Koldam Hydropower Station, commonly known as Koldam, is an embankment dam on the Sutlej River upstream of the Dehar Power House. It is 18 km from Bilaspur off the Chandigarh-Manali Highway (NH-21) near Barmana, Himachal Pradesh, India. The main purpose of the dam is hydroelectric power generation and it will support an 800 MW power station. The dam was constructed by NTPC Limited (erstwhile  National Thermal Power Corporation Limited).

Koldam project was first conceived in mid‐sixties and investigations on various possible sites had been in progress since 1966. Based on investigation carried out until 1975, a project report was prepared which envisaged construction of rockfill dam having an installed capacity of 600 MW. The work of investigation and studies was taken by HPSEB in October, 1984. The project capacity was revised to 800 MW, but work did not start for lack of funds. Subsequently, Koldam Hydro Project was taken over by NTPC in 2000 and Project Report was revised with a 167m high rock fill dam and Surface Power House located at toe of the dam with installed capacity of 4X200 MW.

The foundation stone for the dam was laid on 5 June 2000 by Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. On 14 January 2004, main construction on the dam began. KB Dubey was the first Head of the Project (BUH) . The current BUH is NS Thakur (since 2020).

Due to problems associated with geological issues and declaration of part of reservoir area in 2006 as extension of Majathal Wildlife Sanctuary, the project got delayed. Attempts to impound the reservoir first failed in December 2013 due to problems with sealing the diversion tunnels. By 18 March 2014, a fourth attempt to seal the tunnels and fill the lake was underway. Repairs were made and another unsuccessful impounding was reached in April 2014 as the diversion tunnel continued to leak. Another period of impounding began on 3 November 2014 and finished on 3 January 2015. A tunnel still leaked though but authorities were confident they would have the power station operational by April. Generator commissioning was originally scheduled for 2009 but was rescheduled to 2015.

Construction 
The contract of construction of dam was awarded to Thailand's ITD Public Company Limited. A joint venture company of BHEL, Toshiba and Marubeni supplied turbines and generators.

Power generation capacity 
Its installed capacity is of 800 MW (4x200 MW). The first 200 MW Francis turbine-generator was commissioned on 30 March 2015 and the third on 10 April 2015.

Nord 1500 Noréclair. The Nord 1500 Noréclair was a prototype French twin-engined dive bomber and anti-submarine warfare aircraft built at the end of the Second World War. It would have carried both torpedoes, missiles, and bombs. The aircraft was built in response to a need for a dive bomber and anti-submarine aircraft that could be launched both from land and from an aircraft carrier. The first prototype flew on 29 August 1947. The tests revealed many issues that had to be resolved. Eventually the project was abandoned after being criticized heavily and discovering many problems.

Constructions Mécaniques de Normandie. Constructions Mécaniques de Normandie (CMN) is a French shipyard located at Cherbourg. It employs approximately four hundred employees covering the various specialities required for the construction of luxury yachts and warships.

Since its foundation in 1945, the shipyard has delivered over 350 vessels. It is part of the holding company, Abu Dhabi MAR, which is steered by the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.

History
The shipyard was founded in 1945 by the French aircraft constructor, Félix Amiot in Cherbourg, France. The first vessel built by CMN was a wooden trawler which was launched on 23 June 1948 and soon diversified its products to minesweeperss, coast guard vessels, fishing boats, barges, patrol boats and fast attack crafts.

In the 1960s, the shipyard specialized in building vessels with the CMN patented "glued laminated wood technique", especially the minesweepers for the French and German navies. One of its major minesweeper series was the well-known s (the first one was launched on 15 December 1970, the following four between 1971 and 1972). The glued laminated technique was the best answer to the ship qualities in terms of non-magnetism, noise absorption or noise reflecting.

From 1967, Amiot diversified CMN's offerings with fast attack crafts with a wood-cored laminated hull. The incident that marked the beginning of a new class of fast attack craft in shipbuilding - La Combattante II, was the sinking of the Israeli destroyer  on 21 October 1967  by two Egyptian s, as the destroyer sailed in international waters off Port Said.

In 1962, Lürssen of Germany signed an agreement to supply Israel with twelve of the  vessels. After the delivery of three of the twelve missile boats in 1964, Germany had to renounce the agreement owing to political pressures from Arab nations. The Germans, however, agreed that the boats could be constructed elsewhere and CMN was chosen to construct the remaining nine, which would be of La Combattante II class (Sa'ar-1-class Israeli Navy designate) fast attack crafts.

During the 1970s, the Bundesmarine (German Federal Navy), ordered 20  La Combattante II fast attack crafts. The  is a modification of the French La Combattante II design.

In 1992 the shipyard was taken over by Iskandar Safa and in 2007, it became a part of Abu Dhabi MAR.

Operations
CMN has around 400 employees and is part of the holding company, Abu Dhabi MAR, which is steered by the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. Its sister companies are ADMShipyards, Nobiskrug Shipyard, ADM Kiel (Civilian Shipbuilding assets of HDW) & Hellenic Shipyards SA.

CMN is able to build or refit vessels up to . The construction is done entirely under sheltered halls ( of covered facilities), on a total surface of . The site has significantly sized building sheds, one of , and another of .
 
The vessels are launched by:
a slipway for yachts under 700 tons
a 3,000-tonne Syncrolift (lift area of })

Before becoming a part of Abu Dhabi Mar group holding in 2007, Iskandar Safa was the sole owner of CMN.
