  2. Total dissolved solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_dissolved_solids

    Total dissolved solids ( TDS) is a measure of the dissolved combined content of all inorganic and organic substances present in a liquid in molecular, ionized, or micro-granular ( colloidal sol) suspended form. TDS are often measured in parts per million (ppm). TDS in water can be measured using a digital meter.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermilab

    The accelerator complex that feeds the Main Injector is under upgrade, and construction of the first building for the new PIP-II linear accelerator began in 2020. Until 2011, Fermilab was the home of the 6.28 km (3.90 mi) circumference Tevatron accelerator. The ring-shaped tunnels of the Tevatron and the Main Injector are visible from the air ...

    A mortgage accelerator loan can help you pay off your mortgage ahead of schedule, often through a line of credit or a biweekly payment setup. This type of loan might charge an annual fee and a ...

  6. Cooling tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_tower

    Higher TDS concentration in solution may result from greater cooling tower efficiency. However the higher the TDS concentration, the greater the risk of scale, biological growth, and corrosion. The amount of blow-down is primarily regulated by measuring by the electrical conductivity of the circulating water. Biological growth, scaling, and ...

  7. Hardware acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_acceleration

    A cryptographic accelerator card allows cryptographic operations to be performed at a faster rate. Hardware acceleration is the use of computer hardware designed to perform specific functions more efficiently when compared to software running on a general-purpose central processing unit (CPU). Any transformation of data that can be calculated ...

  8. Accelerant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerant

    Accelerant. Accelerants, or accelerators, are substances that increase the rate of a natural or artificial chemical process. They play a major role in chemistry, as most chemical reactions can be hastened with an accelerant. Understanding accelerants is crucial in forensic science, engineering, and other fields where controlled chemical ...

  9. Cyclonic separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclonic_separation

    Cyclonic separation is a method of removing particulates from an air, gas or liquid stream, without the use of filters, through vortex separation. When removing particulate matter from liquid, a hydrocyclone is used; while from gas, a gas cyclone is used. Rotational effects and gravity are used to separate mixtures of solids and fluids.
