Brush discharge plastics. The ability of an electrical discharge to cause an explosion in flammable atmospheres is measured by the "effective energy" of the discharge. The effective energy of brush discharges is 10-20 mJ, much larger than that of corona discharges 0.1 mJ. Therefore, brush discharges are considered an explosion hazard, while corona discharges are not. Brush discharges can occur from charged insulating plastics (for example polythene) to a conductor. Brush discharge A brush discharge is an electrical disruptive discharge similar to a corona discharge that takes place at an electrode with a high voltage applied to it, embedded in a nonconducting
Wastewater discharge standards in Latin America to public sewer system are contained in section V of Decree 883. Congress of Paraguay emitted the Law 1614 of 2000 as the general regulatory and tariff framework for drinking water and sanitary sewer supply. Following the law's guidelines, was created the Quality Regulation for drinkable water supply and sanitation, which applies to the entire national territory. This regulation includes in its Title VI, all what refers to quality of the performance of sanitary sewer supply. In Annex 10 are shown the maximum limits for physicochemical parameters, specifying discharge values for the type of wastewater treatment applied. For purposes of
