What Is Recrystallization Annealing In Metallurgy? Recrystallization annealing is a metallurgical heat treatment process applied to cold-worked metal components to cause ‘nucleation’ and growth of new grains, without any disruption of alloy phases. This process effectively reverses the damage produced by heavy plastic deformation involved in the production of highly shaped cold formed parts, such […]
What Is Electrodeionization? Electrodeionization (EDI) is a method of purifying water without chemicals by using electricity, ion exchange membranes, and resin. It is often used as a final step to remove impurities after reverse osmosis (RO). Continuous electrodeionization (CEDI) units are available, which use an electric current to continuously regenerate the resin. EDI can achieve […]
Advantages And Disadvantages Of Cost-Reimbursement Contract Cost reimbursement contracts, also known as cost-plus contracts, entail reimbursing the contractor for the actual costs incurred during a project. These contracts are typically used in research projects, construction, and other undertakings where material costs are uncertain at the time of contract initiation. The contractor is reimbursed for the […]
