  2. Dust collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_collector

    A dust collector is a system used to enhance the quality of air released from industrial and commercial processes by collecting dust and other impurities from air or gas. Designed to handle high-volume dust loads, a dust collector system consists of a blower, dust filter, a filter-cleaning system, and a dust receptacle or dust removal system.

  3. Sawdust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawdust

    Wood dust becomes a potential health problem when, for example, the wood particles, from processes such as sanding, become airborne and are inhaled. Wood dust is a known human carcinogen . [ 10 ] [ 11 ] Certain woods and their dust contain toxins that can produce severe allergic reactions. [ 12 ]

  4. Boehm garbage collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boehm_garbage_collector

    The collector uses a mark-sweep algorithm. It provides incremental and generational collection under operating systems which provide the right kind of virtual memory support. (Currently this includes SunOS[45], IRIX, OSF/1, Linux, and Windows, with varying restrictions.) It allows finalization code to be invoked when an object is collected.

  5. Health impacts of sawdust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_impacts_of_sawdust

    Wood-dust concentrations vary with type of dust extraction, amount of wood removed, and type of sander (Thorpe and Brown 1994). [2] For electric belt sanders used to sand dowels , total dust concentrations ranged from 0.22 mg/m with external dust extraction to 3.74 mg/m without extraction, and concentrations of respirable dust ranged from 0.003 ...

  6. Automated vacuum collection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_Vacuum_Collection

    An automated vacuum waste collection system, also known as pneumatic refuse collection, or automated vacuum collection (AVAC), transports waste at high speeds through underground pneumatic tubes to a collection station where the waste is compacted and sealed in containers. Full containers are transported away to be emptied.

  7. Baghouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baghouse

    For applications where there is relatively low dust loading and gas temperatures are 250 °F (121 °C) or less, pleated, nonwoven cartridges are sometimes used as filtering media instead of bags. [4] [5] Dust-laden gas or air enters the baghouse through hoppers and is directed into the baghouse compartment. The gas is drawn through the bags ...

  8. Collections management system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collections_Management_System

    Collections Management Systems have their origins in cataloging and registration, and consequently, most systems manage information and records “from a curatorial and collections management perspective." [44] Conservation information in these systems is often limited to condition reporting and documentation of treatment history. While some ...

  9. Garbage collection (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbage_collection...

    Other languages, such as C and C++, were designed for use with manual memory management, but have garbage-collected implementations available. Some languages, like Ada, Modula-3, and C++/CLI, allow both garbage collection and manual memory management to co-exist in the same application by using separate heaps for collected and manually managed ...
