7Basic oxygen steelmaking — ( BOS, BOF, Linz Donawitz Verfahren, LD converter ) is a method of steelmaking in which carbon rich molten iron is made into steel. The process is an improvement over the historically important Bessemer process. The LD converter is named after… …
8Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption — (EPOC, informally called afterburn) is a measurably increased rate of oxygen intake following strenuous activity intended to erase the body s oxygen debt. In historical context the term oxygen debt was popularized to explain or perhaps attempt to …
