dry vapor
1Vapor pressure — (also known as equilibrium vapor pressure or saturation vapor pressure ), is the pressure of a vapor in equilibrium with its non vapor phases. All liquids and solids have a tendency to evaporate to a gaseous form, and all gases have a tendency to …
2Vapor steam cleaner — Vapor steam cleaners use a boiler to heat tap water to high temperatures (240 to 310 degrees) causing the water to be transformed into a very fine, dry mist. The vapor is made up of about 5 to 6% water, so surfaces dry quickly. The vapor… …
3Dry lubricant — Dry lubricants or solid lubricants are materials which despite being in the solid phase, are able to reduce friction between two surfaces sliding against each other without the need for a liquid media. Such lubricants, including materials such as …
4Dry cleaning — (or dry cleaning) is any cleaning process for clothing and textiles using a chemical solvent other than water. The solvent used is typically tetrachloroethylene (perchloroethylene), abbreviated perc in the industry and dry cleaning fluid by the… …
5Dry distillation — is the heating of solid materials to produce gaseous products (which may condense into liquids or solids). The method may or may not involve pyrolysis/thermolysis. The products are condensed and collected. This method usually requires higher… …
6Dry sterilisation process — The term dry sterilisation process, DSP, denotes a dry aseptic sterilisation process. It is used for instance in the beverage industry during cold aseptic filling of beverages (juices, waters, UHT milk, etc.) into plastic bottles made from PET or …
