![]() ![]() The brine then enters a chamber, subjected to a partial vacuum and heated, releasing water vapor that is condensed and collected. Concentrated brine is streamed down the outside of towers, absorbing water vapor. Īnother variation claims to be more environmentally friendly, by relying on passive solar energy and gravity. Large versions, mounted on trailers, produce up to 1,200 US gallons (4,500 L) of water per day, at a ratio of up to 5 gallons of water per gallon of fuel. The brine absorbs water, which is then extracted and purified. Īnother wet desiccant is concentrated brine. Liquid desiccants include lithium chloride or lithium bromide. Desiccants may be liquid ("wet") or solid. ![]() Hygroscopic techniques pull water from the air via absorption or adsorption. When powered by coal-based electricity it has one of the worst carbon footprints of any water source (exceeding reverse osmosis seawater desalination by three orders of magnitude) and it demands more than four times as much water up the supply chain than it delivers to the user. The relatively cold (below the dewpoint) evaporator coil condenses water vapor from the processed air. In dehumidifying air conditioners, non-potable water is a by-product. Examples include the seawater greenhouse in Oman and the IBTS Greenhouse. ![]() A special case is water generation in greenhouses because the inside air is much hotter and more humid. Potable water generation can be enhanced in low humidity conditions by using an evaporative cooler with a brackish water supply to increase the humidity. The solid-state semiconductors are convenient for portable units, but this is offset by low efficiency and high power consumption. In this application, the air is forced over the cooling fans on the side that cools which lowers the air temperature. The Peltier effect of semiconducting materials offer an alternative condensation system in which one side of the semi-conducting material heats while the other side cools. The cost-effectiveness of an AWG depends on the capacity of the machine, local humidity and temperature conditions, and power costs. As a rule of thumb, cooling condensation AWGs do not work efficiently when the ambient temperature falls below 18.3 ☌ (65 ☏) or the relative humidity drops below 30%. AWGs become more effective as relative humidity and air temperature increase. The rate of water production depends on the ambient temperature, humidity, the volume of air passing over the coil, and the machine's capacity to cool the coil. A purification/filtration system keeps the water pure and reduces the risk posed by ambient microorganisms. Once the air temperature reaches its dew point, water condenses into the collector. Cooling condensation Ĭondensing systems are the most common technology in use.Ī cooling condensation type AWG uses a compressor to circulate refrigerant through a condenser and then an evaporator coil that cools the surrounding air. Hybrid systems combine adsorption, refrigeration and condensation. Technologies Ĭooling-based systems are the most common, while hygroscopic systems are showing promise. In 2022, a cellulose/ konjac gum-based desiccant was demonstrated that produced 13 L/kg/day (1.56 US gal/lb/day) of water at 30% humidity, and 6 L/kg/day (0.72 US gal/lb/day) at 15% humidity. In February 2021 General Electric was awarded 14 million dollars to continue development of their device. ĭARPA's Atmospheric Water Extraction program that aims to develop a device which can provide water for 150 soldiers and be carried by four people.

![]() To adjust leading, you set the leading of selected characters using the Leading control (located next to the type size) and enter a value. Then use the directional arrows to move left or right until they look just perfect. You can hold the cursor between the letters to be kerned and hold down the option key. The kerning field is located under the type size. – Both kerning and leading can be applied in Photoshop and Illustrator through the same Character palette, accessible from the link in the Control palette. Leading impacts the readability and legibility of type to make the letters visually appealing. Leading is an attribute of individual characters which determines the vertical spacing between lines of type. It is usually applied so letters fit snugly together. ![]() Kerning is not necessary for all text, just the really important ones such as headline titles, official logos, etc. – The goal of kerning is to achieve proportional spacing between two individual characters in order to create a more comfortable looking typography. Leading is defined as the spacing between the descender line and the ascender line of consecutive lines of text. Leading, on the other hand, refers to the vertical spacing between lines and is measured from the baseline of each line of text to the next. It not only refers to the spacing between two letters but also the process of adjusting these spaces. It refers to the addition and subtraction of space between letters to achieve proportional spacing between characters. – Kerning is the adjustment of spacing between the given pair of characters. Difference between Kerning and Leading Definition ![]() Type with no extra leading is said to be ‘set solid.’ Leading used to be 20 percent greater than the font size, but distances may vary based on individual styles or preferences. For example, when you see “10 on 12” or “10/12”, it means “10-point text on 12-point leading.” The leading point represents the distance from one baseline to the next, rather than the actual spacing between the lines of text. It is a hot metal printing term that draws its name from the lead strips that were inserted between text measures to create extra vertical space between lines of text. Usually pronounced “ledding”, leading is the vertical distance from the baseline of each line of text to the next baseline of text. Leading is a fundamental design aspect that determines the spacing between lines. ![]() ![]() Fluid clinch control brings RPM into the art of the ‘clinch’, adding a key element of strategy to the striking system.

This act, once again, was repealed in 1893. In 1890, the Bland–Allison Act was repealed by the Sherman Silver Purchase Act, which required the Treasury to purchase 4,500,000 troy ounces (140,000 kg) of silver each month, but only required further silver dollar production for one year. Instead, the Bland–Allison Act was passed, which required the Treasury to purchase between two and four million dollars' worth of silver at market value to be coined into dollars each month. Following the passage of the 1873 act, mining interests lobbied to restore free silver, which would require the Mint to accept all silver presented to it and return it, struck into coin. The dollar was authorized by the Bland–Allison Act. The mint mark, if present, appears on the reverse above between D and O in "Dollar". The obverse depicts a profile portrait representing Liberty, modeled by Anna Willess Williams, while the reverse depicts an eagle with wings outstretched. The coin is named after its designer, United States Mint Assistant Engraver George T. It contained 412.5 grains of 90% pure silver (or 371.25 gr = 24.056 g = 0.7735 oz t of pure silver). It was the first standard silver dollar minted since the passage of the Coinage Act of 1873, which ended the free coining of silver and the production of the previous design, the Seated Liberty dollar. ![]() 90% silver dollars, including Morgan Dollars, Peace Dollars and Commemorative Silver Dollars from the US Mint, are available in a wide range of dates, mint marks and designs.The Morgan dollar is a United States dollar coin minted from 1878 to 1904, in 1921, and beginning again in 2021. Silver Coins are also popular with coin collectors due to the variety of available designs. 90% Silver Dollarsīuying Silver Bullion Coins has become a popular choice for investors looking to diversify their portfolio in hopes of preserving future wealth. By Decemthe first Peace Dollars were struck and continued to be minted every year until 1928. Weinman (Mercury Dime and Walking Liberty Half Dollar), and Herman A. Then, in Novermeber 1921, a competition for the coin's design was held and a 33 year-old Italian immigrant, Anthony De Francisci won beating out several well-known designers in thecoin world such as Victor D. In May of 1921 the Peace Dollar bill was submitted. The ANA completely supported the idea and quickly created a committee to present the idea to Congress. The idea of producing a coin that would commemorate world peace was first brought forth at a 1920 American Numismatic Association (ANA) convention in Chicago by a man named Farran Zerbe. The Pittman Act also required that the government purchase more silver in order to replace the melted coins allowing for the Morgan to return briefly in 1921 until being replaced by the Peace Dollar. In 1918, Congress passed the Pittman Act to replenish the reserves by officially melting millions of the silver dollars that were being kept in treasury vaults (over 270 million Morgan Dollars were melted). By 1904 over 500 million Morgan Dollars were created and the government's silver reserves were depleted. As a result of this act, the Morgan Silver Dollar was born. However, the Bland-Allison Act passed five years later in February 1878 ot only restored silver as legal tender, it also stated that the government would mint 2 million silver dollars each month.

Caril Ann maintains to this day that she was an innocent victim of a psychopath.Ĭharles was executed on June 25, 1959, and Caril Starkweather was obsessed with James Dean and loved the media attention and infamy this brought him. His childhood was not filled with the beatings and abuses that so many depraved killers recollect when they are finally captured. Starkweather, whose birth name was Charles Raymond Starkweather, was a cold-blooded spree murderer who originally belonged to Lincoln, Nebraska, in the U.S. Most of the murders took place in just over a week, an eight-day rampage of shootings and stabbings that confounded authorities and terrorized the general public. Charles Starkweather (also known as Charlie) was born in Lincoln on November 24 th, 1938, into a poor, uneducated, but decent family. Charles Starkweather was 19 when he took his 14-year-old girlfriend Caril Ann Fugate through Nebraska and Wyoming in January 1958 on a murder spree that ultimately took 11 lives (including her baby sister). In December 1957 and January 1958, nineteen-year-old Charlie Starkweather embarked on a killing spree through Nebraska and Wyoming. ![]() ![]() ![]() In cold conditions, window film slows heat loss through the exposed glass, leading to savings on propane and/or electricity. RVers will see the result in better gas mileage since air conditioners eat up fuel at a fast rate. Insulation – Window tint film can block up to 70 percent of the infrared (solar) heat that comes through glass windows. What are the Benefits of RV or Camper Window Tinting? The lower the number, the less light gets through. For example, film with a VLT of 30 allows only 30 percent of the visible light through. The VLT number indicates the amount of light that the film allows through. Films are available in a number of different shades, including clear, and are rated by their Visible Light Transmission (VLT) factor. This film typically incorporates several layers, each of which provides different benefits, such as protection from UV rays, heat rejection, glare control, and privacy. Window Tinting Film – A thin polyester material is applied to the inside of windows. Colors range from grey, bronze, and green to a reflective mirror tint. Factory tinted windows are typically darker for windows in the rear of vehicles, in compliance with Federal laws. The main benefit achieved by factory tinted windows is privacy, as this tinted glass does not usually block UV radiation or provide insulation. Tinted windows are the result of two different processes.įactory Tint – Windows are tinted at the factory by an electrical process called “deep dipping” which applies a dark tint inside the glass. Here are some factors to consider when deciding whether to tint your windows, the different options available, and some mistakes to avoid. However, if your rig lacks them, or you’d like to improve insulation and safety, you can apply tinted film to your windows. ![]() Many, if not most, motorhomes and trailers now come standard with tinted glass windows already installed.
