Nitromethane was not known to be a high explosive until a railroad tank car loaded with it exploded on June 1, 1958. [29] After much testing [citation needed], it was realized that nitromethane was a more energetic high explosive than TNT [citation needed], although TNT has a higher velocity of detonation (VoD) and brisance [citation needed].
Prices for piped water supply provided by utilities, be they publicly or privately managed, are determined administratively (see water tariffs). They vary from US$0.01 to almost US$8 per cubic meter (including sewer tariffs). Portland 2.17 gallons cost $0.01 [5]
The system to evaporate the leachate costs $300,000 to $500,000 to put in place with operations and maintenance costs of $70,000 to $95,000 per year. A 30,000 gallons per day evaporator costs $.05 - $.06 per gallon. The cost per gallon increases as the evaporator size decreases. A 10,000 gallons per day evaporator costs $.18 - $.20 per gallon. [9]

The average cost of gas has decreased 15% in the last two years, from when it was $4.27 per gallon. The highest recorded average price of regular gas was in June 2022 at $5.06 per gallon.
Beverages include beer, malt, soda, mineral water in jars, cartons, bottles, or cans made of glass, metal, plastic, or a combination. [26] The redemption rate of covered containers is 72.3%, [27] though due to an increase in sales of non-carbonated beverages, over 30% of beverage containers sold are not covered and are recycled at a much lower ...
The United States is the largest consumer market for bottled water in the world, followed by Mexico, China, and Brazil. [1] [obsolete source] In 1975, Americans rarely drank bottled water—just one gallon of bottled water per person per year on average. By 2005, it had grown to ~26 gallons (98.5 L) per person per year.

A water-gel explosive is a fuel-sensitized explosive mixture consisting of an aqueous ammonium nitrate solution that acts as the oxidizer. [1] Water gels that are cap -insensitive are referred to under United States safety regulations as blasting agents.
