@gwhuber2 Isocynates and polyols are precursors of polyurethanes which are used to make mattresses cushions and foam

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Biomass(cellulose) to five and six carbon alpha omega diols can be carried out using a series of catalytic steps via an intermediate called LGO.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Plastics are categorized in multiple ways based on their physical properties into amorphous , crystalline, thermoset and thermoplastic.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Wholesale prices are usually prices for business to business (B2B). Retail prices are for business to customers (B2C).

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Silicones exhibit properties between organic and inorganic compounds and has many advantages of glass and plastics.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Chlorine comes from NaCl and which is extracted by salt mining. Brine from ground contains various alkali metal salts from where NaCl is purified.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Most of the aniline made from benzene is used to make polyurethanes which is used for insulation, adhesives and automotives.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Xylene is produced as mixture and further separation via Crystallization or Adsorption is done to get the different components.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 A freedom to operate opinion (FTO) is a legal opinion from a qualified intellectual property attorney that concludes a proposed commercial product or process may be made, used, sold, or offered for sale without infringement of other patents.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Supply chain management is an essential component of setting up and running a chemical plant. Aspen unified PIMS is a production planning software which can be used for the same.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Contingency costs in a fixed capital budget is costs in case the project goes over the estimates. It depends on the project, the site and the risks involved and decided based on that.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@MinLee10818 @gwhuber2 China has abundant methanol to olefins plants which are the key raw materials for many products in the chemical industry like plastics, formaldehydes.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 In 1909, N2 fixation to get ammonia was successfully achieved with an Osmium catalyst at 1 bar using a bicycle tire pump to get the pressure by Fritz Haber.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Well to wheel analysis is a method to evaluate efficiency and emissions of an energy source by considering its entire life cycle. This method provides a way to measure energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Human development index is directly correlated to Energy consumption, cause more energy is required for higher standards of living and education .

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 The color of the hydrogen gives information about the nature of the feedstock & process that was used to generate it , where grey means coal was used, blue - methane and green would mean renewable source H20 was used.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 Natural gas is a mixture of various hydrocarbons and requires separation and processing costs to get a usable fuel. Age (new/old) of the natural gas well is indicative of what percentage of C1 C2 and C3 hydrocarbons are present in it.

[Hemakshi Mishra @hemakshizzaa]

@gwhuber2 I learned that we have loads of natural gas and oil reserves but are limited by the technology resulting in being able yo use only a very little part of it. I also got to know that America and Europe mostly rely on these why Asia relies heavily on coal for energy.

Completed my BS-MS dual degree in Chemistry from IISER Bhopal.
I thank IISERB and all faculty who have guided me throughout my journey. Special thanks to Dr. Bharathwaj Sathyamoorthy for shaping my interest and his guidance in my master's project.
