0 INTRODUCTION The four main sources of Fugitive Emissions on most plants are valves, machine seals, re-makable joints and pressure relief devices. Other possible sources include open-ended lines, sampling connections, drains and vents. Sometimes special precautions are taken to minimize Fugitive Emissions, for example the use of bellows seal valves. However, generally no special precautions are taken and the subsequent Fugitive Emissions to atmosphere represent a significant amount of plant losses. Regulatory requirements covering Fugitive Emissions exist in many countries and therefore a leak reduction program should be implemented. Fugitive Emissions also represent financial losses to the business as well as potential damage to the environment.

Biological Systems: A Special Case Up till now we have discussed various aspects of the separation and processing of fine solids without too much reference (except in the examples) to the specifics of the properties of the materials concerned. Though the material properties are the dominant influence on efficient process design and operation, it has been postulated that the necessary characteristics for process selection and optimization can be found fairly readily using easily-applicable rheological and other techniques. This underlying assumption also seems to hold good for biological suspensions; however, certain aspects of the behavior of these systems are sufficiently specialized for them to merit a separate discussion viz: 1 TYPES OF BIOLOGICAL SEPARATION 1.1 Whole-Organism Case 1.2 Part-Cell Separations 1.3 Isolation of Individual Molecular Species 2 SETTING ABOUT DEVISING AN EFFECTIVE PROCESS FOR SEPARATION OF A BIOLOGICAL MATERIAL 2.1 Whole-Organism Case 2.1.1 Characterization of Biopolymers in the Liquor 2.1.2 Release of Internal Water 2.2 Part -Cell Separations 2.2.1 Selectivity 2.2.2 Cost 2.3 Isolation of Individual Molecular Species 3 Examples 3.1 Effective Design and Operation of a Process for Harvesting of Single Cell Protein 3.2 Harvesting of Mycoprotein for Human Consumption 3.3 Thickening of a Filamentous Organism Suspension 3.4 Separation of Poly-3-hydroxybutyrate Polymer (PHB) from Alcaligenes Eutrophus Biomass 3.5 Isolation of Organic Acid Produced by an Enzymatic Process 4 REFERENCES Table Figures

Determination of Anions by Ion Chromatography 1 SCOPE AND FIELD OF APPLICATION This method is suitable for the determination of inorganic anions in Ammonia Solution in the range 100 ppb to 50 ppm m/v. 2 PRINCIPLE The sample is passed through a column of anion exchange resin, on which the anions are absorbed and separated. They are then eluted with dilute sodium carbonate/sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and passed through a suppressor. This replaces the cations with hydrogen ions and thus reduces the background conductivity of the eluent. Final measurement is by conductivity

Integration of Rotary Positive Displacement Pumps into a Process This Engineering Design Guide deals with: (a) The specification of the pump duty for enquiries to be sent to pump vendors, (b) The estimation of the characteristics and requirements of the pumps in order to provide preliminary information for design work by others. It applies to pumps in Group 2 and 3 as defined in GBHE-EDS-MAC-21 Series, and is also an essential preliminary step for a pump in Group 1 whose final duty is negotiated with the chosen pump supplier. It may be used for general-purpose pumps in Group 4; their duties when used in a support role are often inadequately defined, whereupon such pumps can be specified by reference to the manufacturer's data for a pump satisfactorily fulfilling the same process need.

It applies to pumps in Group 2 and 3 as defined in GBHE-EDS-MAC-21 Series, and is also an essential preliminary step for a pump in Group 1 whose final duty is negotiated with the chosen pump supplier. It may be used for general-purpose pumps in Group 4; their duties when used in a support role are often inadequately defined, whereupon such pumps can be specified by reference to the manufacturer's data for a pump satisfactorily fulfilling the same process need.

Retrieval augmented generation (RAG) is the most popular style of large language model application to emerge from 2023. The most basic style of RAG works by vectorizing your data and injecting it into a vector database like Milvus for retrieval to augment the text output generated by an LLM. This is just the beginning. One of the ways that we can extend RAG, and extend AI, is through multilingual use cases. Typical RAG is done in English using embedding models that are trained in English. In this talk, we’ll explore how RAG could work in languages other than English. We’ll explore French, Chinese, and Polish.

Tracing the root cause of a performance issue requires a lot of patience, experience, and focus. It’s so hard that we sometimes attempt to guess by trying out tentative fixes, but that usually results in frustration, messy code, and a considerable waste of time and money. This talk explains how to correctly zoom in on a performance bottleneck using three levels of profiling: distributed tracing, metrics, and method profiling. After we learn to read the JVM profiler output as a flame graph, we explore a series of bottlenecks typical for backend systems, like connection/thread pool starvation, invisible aspects, blocking code, hot CPU methods, lock contention, and Virtual Thread pinning, and we learn to trace them even if they occur in library code you are not familiar with. Attend this talk and prepare for the performance issues that will eventually hit any successful system.
