Clariant enables Oslo Airport to recycle two-thirds of aircraft de-icer
9/16/2011
Muttenz, 13 September 2011 - A new Clariant recycling plant for aircraft de-icer is being inaugurated today at Norway's Oslo International Airport. In the coming 2011-12 winter, it is expected that the unit will reprocess 60-70% of the aircraft de-icer fluid (ADF) used in Oslo. The recycled product - mono propylene glycol (MPG) - will substitute an estimated 700 metric tonnes per year of virgin material in de-icing and heat transfer applications.
Recycling also will reduce the airport's carbon footprint. Clariant estimates that carbon emissions over the life-cycle of de-icing will be reduced by an annual 2,800 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e). This is roughly equivalent to the emissions of: 1) an average, new European passenger car1 being driven for 15 million kilometres; or 2) 7,400 round-trip flights2 between London and Oslo.
"Oslo's new recycling plant will save precious natural resources and cut down on carbon," said Jostein Skjefstad Avaition Expert at Oslo Airport. "This is a win-win for Oslo Airport," commented Nigel Westlake Head of Aviation (Sales) for Clariant EMEA "so as its key de-icer supplier, this is also a win for us at Clariant." Clariant provides the airport with its Safewing aircraft de-icers, as well as its EcoTain recycling process for aircraft de-icers.
Oslo's move to EcoTain recycling follows similar moves by other European airports, including Munich Airport and Zurich Airport who use EcoTain systems from Clariant, annually recovering an estimated 2,000 metric tonnes of MPG.
Similar to the EcoTain plant at Zurich, the new one in Oslo will practice 憃ffsite' recycling. In an average expected winter, an estimated 7,000 metric tonnes of spent ADF, captured by drains under the de-icing platforms, will be treated and then concentrated to about 1,100 metric tonnes of 60-65% MPG within the 800-square-meter factory. This concentrate is further purified to commercial specifications for virgin MPG at a Clariant site.
The EcoTain recycling operations at Munich, by contrast, are 憃nsite', Using similar processes the system converts spent ADF into fresh ADF entirely within the confines of the airport.
1) That emits about 150 g CO2e per km driven.
2) According to TerraPass.com, this emits just over 300 kg of CO2 per passenger, per roundtrip.
The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner." AND ENTERS UPON HIS PARENTAL RELATIONS TO LITTLE PETE SKIDMORE. "Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
