  2. Defects per million opportunities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defects_per_million...

    DPMO is stated in opportunities per million units for convenience: processes that are considered highly capable (e.g., processes of Six Sigma quality) are those that experience fewer than 3.4 defects per million opportunities (or services provided).

  3. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    Parts-per notation is often used describing dilute solutions in chemistry, for instance, the relative abundance of dissolved minerals or pollutants in water.The quantity "1 ppm" can be used for a mass fraction if a water-borne pollutant is present at one-millionth of a gram per gram of sample solution.

  4. Air pollutant concentrations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pollutant_concentrations

    1 volume percent = 10,000 ppmv (i.e., parts per million by volume) with a million being defined as 10 6. Care must be taken with the concentrations expressed as ppbv to differentiate between the British billion which is 10 12 and the USA billion which is 10 9 (also referred to as the long scale and short scale billion, respectively).

  5. Useful conversions and formulas for air dispersion modeling

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_conversions_and...

    0.1 × ( 12 ÷ 8 ) = 0.15 grain per dscf when corrected to a gas having a specified reference CO 2 content of 12 volume %. Notes: Although ppmv and grains per dscf have been used in the above examples, concentrations such as ppbv (i.e., parts per billion by volume), volume percent, grams per dscm and many others may also be used.

  6. Atmospheric methane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_methane

    Values are given as pollution free monthly mean mole fractions in parts-per-billion. [1] Atmospheric methane is the methane present in Earth's atmosphere. [2] The concentration of atmospheric methane is increasing due to methane emissions, and is causing climate change. [3] [4] Methane is one of the most potent greenhouse gases.

  7. Moisture analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_analysis

    For example, moisture (usually measured as a percentage) is a common specification in commercial food production. [1] There are many applications where trace moisture measurements are necessary for manufacturing and process quality assurance. Trace moisture in solids must be known in processes involving plastics, pharmaceuticals and heat treatment.

  8. Vacancy defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacancy_defect

    Other circles are single vacancies, i.e., sulfur atoms are missing only above or below the Mo layer. Scale bar: 1 nm. [1] In crystallography, a vacancy is a type of point defect in a crystal where an atom is missing from one of the lattice sites. [2] Crystals inherently possess imperfections, sometimes referred to as crystallographic defects.

  9. Kröger–Vink notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kröger–Vink_Notation

    Using equation 5, the formula can be simplified into the following form where the enthalpy of formation can be directly calculated: [v ⁠ ′ ′ {\displaystyle \prime \prime } ⁠ Mg ] = exp ( − ⁠ Δ f H / 2 k B T ⁠ + ⁠ Δ f S / 2 k B ⁠ ) = A exp ( − ⁠ Δ f H / 2 k B T ⁠ ) , where A is a constant containing the entropic term.
