Methane is the final product of Anaerobic Digestion. A mixture of methane and carbon dioxide is called a biogas and it can be used for heating and can be used as a natural gas. Anaerobic treatment systems are divided into “high rate” systems involving biomass retention and “low rate” systems without biomass retention. High rate systems are characterized by a relatively short hydraulic retention time but long sludge retention time and can be used to treat many types of wastewater. Low rate…

Hydraulic Fracturing for oil and natural gas is possibly one of the most misunderstood parts of drilling around. The term itself is almost as bad for some as racial slanders. Countries have banned the process and even some states such as Colorado have placed embargos on the process until more research is available. Environmental groups storm capitals at the sound of the word demanding more regulations. What many don’t realize is that the oil business has been using the same process for 70 years…

The process can take place in three parts. • Filtration – This process happens in the entire nephron system. When blood goes through and into the capillary at the beginning of the nephron, small molecules, such as glucose, urea, ions and water are cleaned out and passed through the nephron tubule. The larger molecules such as blood proteins, cannot fit through the capillary wall as they are too big, therefore they stay in the bloodstream. • Reabsorption – When the small molecules are cleaned…

During an individual’s lifespan there will be many times that they undergo tough times and begin to feel distraught. Over the past couple of decades there has been an astronomical rise in the number of individuals that have succumb to drug use, while some individuals claiming that this is due to their social status and environments, while others argue that it’s because of their addictive personalities. Regardless of one’s point of view, it is very clear that drug usage in today’s society is…

List three differential diagnoses for epigastric pain in adults. Include rationale, diagnostic testing, and treatment. Epigastric is the pain that comes on the upper middle portion of the abdomen. It this can occur due to several conditions i.e. irritable bowel syndrome, peptic ulcer, and pancreatitis, and as a referred pain of myocardial infarction among other minors ones. Diagnosis and treatment Peptic ulcer disease Peptic…

2.0 Literature Review This literature review section will describe the fundamental or important topic of this study. 2.1 Hard capsule Capsule, tablet, syrup is among the type of oral administration drug delivery carrier. The capsule is a solid dosage form of drug delivery, which derived from degradable polymer film. The capsules can be divided into hard and soft capsule types. The capsules can be segmented by source of raw materials, and end users. The segmentation by source of raw…

ocean acidification is simple chemistry. There are two important things to remember about what happens when carbon dioxide dissolves in seawater. First, the pH of seawater water gets lower as it becomes more acidic. Second, this process binds up carbonate ions and makes them less plentiful—ions that corals, oysters, mussels, and many other shelled organisms need to build shells and…

Introduction: In the northwestern areas of Washington sunshine is a rather rare occurrence. Approximately nine months out of the year the sky is full of gigantic grey clouds filled with rainwater. During those nine months there's usually a relatively constant amount rainfall covering Bothell. Many citizens who have been experiencing the phenomena of rain for countless years are unaware that there's a difference in rainwater from previous decades. The pH of rainwater has been slowly decreasing…

How can one element change the world? Well if it is an element like copper then it can change our whole world? Copper allowed for early humans to build new weapons which could help civilizations to win or lose in battle. Copper allowed for the modern revolution thanks to the unique qualities it has that other elements do not. Copper allowed for things such as the telephone to make long distance calls and cell phones which allow us as humans to talk wirelessly to people in another country. It…

The objective of Chapter 6: Compounds and Elements was to determine how to synthesize and decompose pure substances, distinguish the difference between compounds and elements, and to determine the difference between complete and incomplete reactions. Previous chapters that contained valuable background knowledge were Chapter 2: Mass Changes in Closed Systems and Chapter 5: The Separation of Mixtures. The Law of Conservation of Mass, which was tested in Chapter 2, proved to be vital in this…
