As reported in reference [22], the author gives the thermal conductivity data of some kinds of NFRP.

Currently there are trends toward the use of [4]: o data communications, o performance-based procedures and satellite-based navigation, o automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) technology, o integration of uplinked weather data with weather radar, o synthetic and enhanced vision, o head-up and head-down displays for surface operation, o open system architectures, and o integrated information management.
These components are responsible for collecting and processing data from other devices in the system, as well as input control commands and send the processed signal to the displays.
Connection and data exchange among components are performed through networks of data buses such as RS232 (shown as black lines), RS485 (green), ARINC429 (yellow), HSDB (blue) and Ethernet (red).
Flight measurement system (brown blocks) which consists of: - attitude and heading reference system (AHRS), - air data computer (ADC), - magnetometer for magnetic sensor and - engine/fuselage microprocessor.
In addition, G1000 system includes some other modules such as data link satellite radio receiver and servos for automatic control of pitch, pitch trim, and roll.

Different methods reported for the N2O control at the tail gas of industries include thermal decomposition, selective catalytic reduction and catalytic decomposition.
XRD data were analyzed for phase identification, presence of impurity phase, as well as for structural damage if any during the catalyst preparations.
During the content of Fe is 1%, as shown in Fig. 6, this sample itself displays a distinct H2 reduction peak at 450 0C, which can be assigned to the reduction peak from Fe3+ to Fe2+, and in the existence of Fe3+.
Meanwhile, it shows another weak H2 reduction peak at 570 0C, which can be assigned to the reduction peak of Fe2O3, in the existence of Fe2O3 partly.
With the increase of the contents of Fe ions, the shift of the H2 reduction peak to low temperature occurred, and the drastic increase of the signal of H2 reduction peak of Fe2O3 were also observed.

Crystal structure parameters from XRD powder data of initial ternary compounds CeCoC2, CeNiC2, and their boundary solid solutions.
Inset: Specific heat data of CeCoC2 depicted as C/T versus T2.
(a) Temperature dependent dc magnetic susceptibility, c(T) º M(T)/H, of solid solutions CeCo1–xNixC2 measured at a field of 1 T and (b) the corresponding inverse susceptibility data, 1/c, where the solid line indicates a Curie Weiss fit (see text); data of CeNiC2 are taken from Ref. [6].
Because of some ambiguity of the absolute values of the measured resistivity data due to the presence of small cracks in the investigated samples, these data are presented in Fig. 6 as normalized resistivity data, r(T)/r(300 K).

Thus, the present work suggests a purification route for the reduction in soluble salts in water, organics and quartz associated with pyrite from the coal mining beneficiation.
It is intended with this work to increase the purity level of pyrite obtained from coal mining, contributing for it transformation into products with more aggregate value, with coal mining and environmental sustainable development by the reduction of that environmental passive.
Leaching in water: For the reduction of soluble levels, like iron sulphates, pyrite was dipped in destilled water at 80oC – 45 mL of water for each 1 g of material – and the system remained in magnetic mixing (Fisatom mixer, 752A model) for one hour.
The Table 1 data indicate that the leaching processes increased the specific mass of the studied material, starting from (3.6121 ± 0.0009) g/cm3 to (3.6434 ± 0.0022) g/cm3.
FTIR spectrums (Fig. 1) indicate the presence of iron sulphates in the “in natura” pyrite – near bands and between the 900 and 1200 cm-1 ranges and 500 and 700 cm-1 [7] – and the reduction of the amounts of them, comproved by the decrease in the intensity of the peaks in that regions, in the purified pyrites.

The mechanical results found revealed a systematic reduction of the maximum mechanical resistance by increasing the volume of Ichu fibers added in the studied mortar mixtures, on the other hand, a greater degree of deformation was evidenced in mortar mixtures with a greater quantity of Ichu fibers added, reaching deformation values of up to 10%.
