Tube chain conveyor. A tube chain conveyor moves materials inside a tube, pulled by a chain. It offers a convenient way for conveying bulk material from one location to another, and also multi-axially. Tube chain conveyors are used for transporting, feeding, dosing, distributing and discharging pourable bulk materials.

Construction
The material chosen for the transport discs screwed on support discs to a round link chain depends in particular on design parameters such as  the material to be transported and the temperature. Tube chain conveyors transport material volumetrically from the inlet to the outlet inside the transport tube.

Specification
The customer is responsible for the correctness of the bulk material and operational parameters on which the design is based, and has to ensure that these parameters are observed when the plant is in operation.

Advantages

Cleanliness
The enclosed construction ensures that the material is transported in a dust free and non-polluting way. Self-cleaning is achieved by the technique applied as well as by the stations, in particular the tensioning station with its tensioning technique. A tube chain conveyor can transport different types of bulk materials without substantial mixing of products or destruction of grains.

Adaptability
By using different plant components, the conveyor can be adapted arrangement to local conditions, i.e. one conveyor can be arranged at various operating levels. The configuration can be horizontal, vertical, circular, or a combination of these. It can convey material multi-dimensionally in a single move. Change in position can be effected horizontally and/or vertically by tube bends and/or deflection stations.

Charles Palmer (engineer). Charles George Palmer  (15 October 1847 – 13 August 1940), civil engineer, was the last surviving man to hold the Lucknow medal for his role in the defence of the Residency in Lucknow during the Indian Rebellion of 1857.

Early life
Palmer was born on 15 October 1847 at Jalandhar in the province of Punjab in north-west India. He was the son of General Henry Palmer of the 48th Native Infantry. The family were based at Lucknow when the siege began on 30 June 1857 and Palmer, then just nine years old, was a pupil at La Martinière College. In the Residency Palmer was put on routine duties which included grinding corn. After a few days he was attached to the battery of his brother-in-law, Captain Ralph Ouseley, and helped to carry ammunition and messages to the guards. On the second day of the fighting Palmer's 19-year-old sister, who had only recently arrived from England, was killed by a cannonball. She is commemorated by a tablet on the school walls. A second sister and her two small children were killed in the later stages of the hostilities. In 1858 after the relief of the garrison Palmer was sent to England to complete his education. He attended Sherborne School in Dorset for five years, leaving in 1863.

Career
In 1866 Palmer joined the Thomason Civil Engineering College in Roorkee, north India. Two years later in 1868 he took up a position with the Public Works Department in Chakrata. By 1876 he was in charge of the Ganges division of the Etawah Canal and the next year he was involved in the relief work following the famine. He briefly moved to Australia to set up a brick-making business in Adelaide but by 1880 had returned to India. He was responsible for the construction of  of the Lower Ganges Canal which commanded an irrigable area of  and had  of distributaries. He was also in charge of the construction of the Eastern Jumna (or Yamuna) Canal.

Palmer was in charge of the relief works during the great famine of 1896, for which he received the thanks of the Lieutenant-Governor and of the Government of India. The following year he became a Companion of the Order of the Indian Empire (C.I.E.).

By 1900 Palmer was the head of the Public Works Department and was also the Chief Engineer and Secretary to the Government. He retired in 1900, and in 1910, at the age of 63, he emigrated to Duncan on Vancouver Island in Canada where he became a farmer. Palmer died on 13 August 1940 at the age of 92.

Family
Palmer married Annie Isabel Porter in Adelaide, Australia. They had two sons and three daughters. One of their sons, C H Palmer, was a Major with the Royal Engineers, and the other son, J H G Palmer, served in the British Indian Army.

Permeability (nautical). Permeability of a space in a ship is the percentage of empty volume in that space.

Permeability is used in ship survivability and damaged stability calculations in ship design.  In this case, the permeability of a space is a percentage from 0 to 100.  Alternately, the permeability may be a coefficient from 0 to 1.  The permeability of a space is the percentage of volume of the space which may be occupied by seawater if the space is flooded.  The remaining volume [not filled with seawater] being occupied by machinery, cargo, accommodation spaces, etc.

Example
Typical values from the International Bulk Chemical Code are:

 0.95 for voids (empty spaces), tanks, and living spaces
 0.85 for machinery spaces
 0.60 for spaces allocated to stores.  

This implies that for damaged stability calculation purposes, machinery spaces are only 15% full with machinery by volume (100% - 85% = 15%).

Ethylenediamine pyrocatechol. Ethylenediamine pyrocatechol (EDP), also known as ethylenediamine-pyrocatechol-water (EPW), is an anisotropic etchant solution for silicon. A typical formulation consists of ethylenediamine, pyrocatechol, pyrazine and water.  It is carcinogenic and very corrosive. It is mainly used in research labs, and is not used in mainstream semiconductor fabrication processes.

Buffered oxide etch. Buffered oxide etch (BOE), also known as buffered HF or BHF, is a wet etchant used in microfabrication. It is a mixture of a buffering agent, such as ammonium fluoride , and hydrofluoric acid (HF).  Its primary use is in etching thin films of silicon nitride (Si3N4) or silicon dioxide (SiO2), by the reaction:

Concentrated HF (typically 49% HF in water) etches silicon dioxide too quickly for good process control and also peels photoresist used in photolithographic patterning. Buffered oxide etch is commonly used for more controllable etching. Buffering HF with  results in a solution with a more stable pH; thus, more stable concentrations of HF and , and a more stable etch rate.

Some oxides produce insoluble products in HF solutions. Thus, HCl may be added to BHF solutions in order to dissolve these insoluble products and produce a higher quality etch.

Production 
Buffered oxide etch can be produced in laboratory quantities by dissolving NH4F powder into water, and adding a solution of HF.

Uses 
A buffered oxide etch solution of 6:1 volume ratio of 40% NH4F to 49% HF will etch  thermally grown oxide at approximately 2 nanometres per second at 25 degrees Celsius. Temperature can be increased to raise the etching rate. Continuous stirring of the solution during the etching process helps to have a more homogeneous solution, which may etch more uniformly by removing etched material from the surface.

Buffered oxide etch can be used in the metallographic etching of titanium alloys. Newer Ti-alloys (such as Ti-Cu and Ti-Mo) are not etched as reliably by typical Ti-etching reagents, but can be etched by BOE and ammonium bifluoride.

HF solution buffered with  can be used to provide better etching of zeolite for the creation of larger pores, to improve the characteristically poor rate of diffusion in these microporous structures. Simple HF solutions (and other acidic methods of etching) show high selectivity in removing aluminum from zeolites, reducing the number of potential Brønsted acid sites, and subsequently reducing certain catalytic performance. However, the addition of a  buffer results in a solution with more HF and  present, which removes Al and Si in more equal proportion.

Ames process. The Ames process is a process by which pure uranium metal is obtained. It can be achieved by mixing any of the uranium halides (commonly uranium tetrafluoride) with magnesium metal powder or aluminium metal powder.

History 

The Ames process was used on August 3, 1942, by a group of chemists led by Frank Spedding and Harley Wilhelm at the Ames Laboratory as part of the Manhattan Project. It is a type of thermite-based purification, which was patented in 1895 by German chemist Hans Goldschmidt. Development of the Ames process came at a time of increased research into mass uranium-metal production. The desire for increased production was motivated by a fear of Nazi Germany's developing nuclear weapons before the Allies. The process originally involved mixing powdered uranium tetrafluoride and powdered magnesium together. This mixture was placed inside an iron pipe that was welded shut on one side and capped shut on another side. This container, called a "bomb" by Spedding, was placed into a furnace. When heated to a temperature of , the contents of the container reacted violently, leaving a 35-gram ingot of pure uranium metal. The process was quickly scaled up; by October 1942 the "Ames Project" was producing metal at a rate of  per week. The uranium tetrafluoride and magnesium were sealed in a refractory-lined reactor vessel, still referred to as a "bomb". The thermite reaction was initiated by furnace heating the assembly to ; the large difference in density between slag and metal allowed complete separation in the liquid state, yielding slag-free metal. By July 1943, the production rate exceeded  of uranium metal per month.  Approximately 1000 tons of uranium ingots were produced at Ames before the process was transferred to industry.

The Ames project received the Army-Navy "E" Award for Excellence in Production on October 12, 1945, signifying 2.5 years of excellence in industrial production of metallic uranium as a vital war material. Iowa State University is unique among educational institutions to have received this award for outstanding service, an honor normally given to industry.

Ames process for rare-earth metals
The metallothermic reduction of anhydrous rare-earth fluorides to rare-earth metals is also referred to as the Ames process.

The study of rare earths was also advanced during World War II: synthetic plutonium was believed to be rare-earth-like, and it was assumed that knowledge of rare earths would assist in planning for and the study of transuranic elements; ion-exchange methods developed for actinide processing were forerunners to processing methods for rare-earth oxides; methods used for uranium were modified for plutonium, which were subsequently the basis for rare-earth metal preparation.
