  • Metallic Salts, Chemical Dyes, Ingredients That Have Quasi-Spiritual Claims, and Para-Phenylenediamine to Create a Range of Colors
    Compound henna: Part 1 Henna, lawsonia inermis, has ONE translucent dye color, rusty red-orange, based on the lawsone molecule precursors naturally produced in the henna leaf. The commercially available henna hair dyes that come in “colors,” such as black, brunette, chestnut, blonde, and so on, are compound hennas. These products have additives to change the color of henna. The additives may be other plants, toxic metallic salts, chemical dyes, ingredients that have quasi-spiritual claims, and para-phenylenediamine to create a range of colors. These hair dyes often contain little henna, or possibly even no henna whatsoever. Sometimes these compound henna dye additives are harmless, others are dangerous. If the additives and adulterants are not declared, they can cause all sorts of health problems as well as destructive cross-reactions if they come in contact with the chemicals used in oxidative dyes. The added ingredients in compound hennas are often not listed or the declarations may be fallacious if the countries of origin do not require declarations for cosmetics, or if the manufacturer chooses to obfuscate for profit. If exported to the west; there is no requirement that the additives be discovered and declared. The pre-packaged henna compounds are often termed “natural herbal henna.” This is misleading as these are not “natural” products; they are full of synthetic chemicals. Metallic salts alter and fix color in lieu of higher quality henna. The compounds of henna and metallic salts can react disastrously with synthetic hair dye, seriously damaging hair. The most frequently used material is lead acetate, though silver nitrate, copper, nickel, cobalt, bismuth and iron salts have also been used.

Many of them come with a reference so that the interested reader can go deeper. The terms are translated into the Hungarian, German, and Slovak language, as Central and Eastern Europe is a growing community very much engaged in combustion activities. Relevant expressions were selected, ranging from laboratory applications to large-scale boilers, from experimental research such as spectroscopy to computer simulations, and from fundamentals to novel developments such as CO2 sequestration and polygeneration. Thereby, students, scientists, technicians and engineers will benefit from this book, which can serve as a handy aid both for academic researchers and practitioners in the field. This book is the 2nd edition. The first edition was written by the author together with Harald Holzapfel, Tomás Suchý, Pál Szentannai and Franz Winter in 2009. The publisher was ProcessEng Engineering GmbH (ISBN: 978-3902655011). Their contribution is acknowledged. Recommended textbook on combustion: Maximilian Lackner, Árpád B.

Furthermore, the present disclosure is directed to electrochemical power systems that generate electrical power and/or thermal energy. These and other related embodiments are described in detail in the present disclosure. Power generation can take many forms, harnessing the power from plasma. Successful commercialization of plasma may depend on power generation systems capable of efficiently forming plasma and then capturing the power of the plasma produced. Plasma may be formed during ignition of certain fuels. These fuels can include water or water-based fuel source. During ignition, a plasma cloud of super-heated electron-stripped atoms is formed, and high-energy particles are ejected outwards. The highest energy particles ejected are the hydrogen ions that can transfer kinetic energy to a plasma to electric converter of the present disclosure. Power can also be generated through the use of a system or device that harnesses energy from the ignition of a fuel in a reaction vessel or combustion chamber.
