淋浴龙头分流器VS使用效果

浴缸龙头的分流器大至可分为上提式、下拉式延时式手柄式、旋钮式按压式分流器     

居室装饰新宏——干花花艺

室内植物装饰,就其形式而言,有盆栽式、悬垂式、攀援式、水养式、壁挂式,插花式等几种。采用哪种形式,应依室内的建筑结构、家具排列和需要,选择适宜的种类、大小,并摆放在适宜的位置。     

双沟式氧化沟与三沟式氧化沟的实际运行效果比较

比较了三沟式氧化沟和双沟式氧化沟在莒县污水厂实际运行的工艺参数、处理效果及经济成本。结果表明:双沟式氧化沟对BOD5、COD和氨氮的去除率分别达到93.3%、88.4%、89.5%,均高于三沟式氧化沟的去除效果;双沟式氧化沟占地面积较三沟式氧化沟小10%,但土建费用较三沟式氧化沟高15%;三沟式氧化沟生物处理部分电耗比双沟式氧化沟高23.7%,但其污泥转输与处置费用较双沟式氧化沟低21.1%。     

水泥原料破碎机械与粉磨机械性能及应用特点分析

主要对颚式破碎机、锤式破碎机、环锤式破碎机、黏土冲击式破碎机和反击式破碎机等水泥原料的破碎机械设备,球磨机和辊式磨等水泥原料粉磨机械设备的性能与应用特点进行分析.     

浅谈承插型盘扣式钢管支架在上盖地铁车辆段工程中的施工优势

目前,国内在建筑工程应用的模板支架基本类型扣件式钢管支架、碗扣式钢管支架、门式钢管支架、数字式钢管支架、盘扣式钢管支架等。本文重点阐述盘扣式钢管支架在地铁上盖车辆段工程中的应用,同时,提出了其比传统扣件式、碗扣式钢管支架在技术、安全、成本上的优势。采用     

复述在初中英语教学中的应用

通过对英语课文的复述,培养学生的听说交际能力,复述按其总体形式可分为口头复述与书面复述两种,按其总体内容又可分为段落复述与全文复述两种;按其要求又可分为简述与详述两种,具体形式有:提纲式、提问式、图示式、表演式、填空式、穿插式,复述能提高学生学习英语的主动性。     

论轻质结构的可持续发展

通过对国内外轻质结构如网式、帐篷式、壳式、帆式、充气膜式的分析 ,提出轻质结构设计的可持续发展的趋势是节能、减少污染、循环利用、合理舒适 ,与周围环境和谐统一。
