Page 3 of 4 Terminology Aphodid Boiler or Burner (APB): A container within which gaseous fuels are burnt inside L.H2O or G.H2O. An APB normally has well insulated walls made of high tensile strength materials so it can contain high Ts and Ps. Biowaste: Organic materials such as kitchen garden, and slaughterhouse wastes that can be fermented anaerobically to fertilizer and biogas. Biowastes can contain poisons that kill methanogenic bacteria. Waste paper usually biowaste - but print on it may be toxic. Tannery and paper factory wastes can be poisonous Biogas: is a mixture of CO2 and bioCH4, BioCH4, BioH2, BioCO2: Gasses obtained from non-fossil sources Enthalpy: H. Internal energy of a mass kJ/kg. According to definition H = P x V + U Where: P = pressure, V = volume, U = LQ + SQ. Entropy: S. that part of the Q in a mass of working fluid that cannot be converted into W according to the Second Law of Thermodynamics. S gained between two Ts is computed as the sum of the kJ/(kg x K) for all K degrees Fluid: A substance which is used in both its liquid and its gaseous phases. Pyrotrash: Old plastics and rubber, used tires, lubricating oils, plastic solvents and paint thinners. Biowastes containing poisons, parasites and pathogens can be treated as pyrotrash.
