1Carbon dioxide — Carbon dioxide …
2Carbon dioxide transmission rate — (COTR) is the measurement of the amount of carbon dioxide gas that passes through a substance over a given period. It is mostly carried out on non porous materials, where the mode of transport is diffusion, but there are a growing number of… …
3Carbon dioxide sensor — A carbon dioxide sensor or CO2 sensor is an instrument for the measurement of carbon dioxide gas. The most common principles for CO2 sensors are infrared gas sensors (NDIR) and chemical gas sensors. Nondispersive Infrared (NDIR) CO2 Sensors NDIR… …
4carbon-dioxide laser — a laser with carbon dioxide gas as the active medium that produces infrared radiation at 10,600 nm; used to excise and incise tissue and to vaporize …
5carbon-dioxide laser — laser with carbon dioxide gas as the active means that produces infrared radiation at 10,600 nanometer …
6carbon dioxide laser — noun a device using contained carbon dioxide gas to produce a laser beam with shallow penetration and minimal heat production, that is used as a cutting implement in various medical treatments …
7Carbon dioxide equivalent — (CDE) and Equivalent carbon dioxide (or CO2) are two related but distinct measures for describing how much global warming a given type and amount of greenhouse gas may cause, using the functionally equivalent amount or concentration of carbon… …
8Carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere — Carbon dioxide forms approximately 0.04% of the Earth s atmosphere. It is essential to photosynthesis in plants and other photoautotrophs, and is also a prominent greenhouse gas due to its radiative forcing strength.ConcentrationAs of November… …
9Carbon dioxide clathrate — Carbon dioxide hydrate is a Type I gas clathrate (Sloan 1998). However, there has been some experimental evidence for the development of a metastable Type II phase at temperature near the ice melting point (Fleyfel and Devlin 1990, Staykova et al …
10carbon dioxide — n a heavy colorless gas CO2 that does not support combustion, dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, is formed esp. in animal respiration and in the decay or combustion of animal and vegetable matter, is absorbed from the air by plants in… …
