  • Coating Removal Technology Using Starch Based Abrasives, a Review of Current Aerospace Application Using the Envirostrip Dry Stripping Process
    Coating removal technology using starch based abrasives, a review of current Aerospace application using the Envirostrip dry stripping process. by Denis Monette and Cameron Drake Archer Daniels Midland September 2000 995 Mill Street Montreal, H3C1Y5 Phone: 514-846-8516 INTRODUCTION Due to stringent environmental regulations enacted in the past 10 years, methylene chloride (MC) has been phased out in many industries because it is harmful to the environment and the workers exposed to it. The aerospace industry, historically a large user of MC, researched and adopted many environmentally acceptable alternatives to replace methylene chloride based paint strippers. This has proved to be a very difficult task as MC chemical strippers have been very effective in removing tough polyurethane/epoxy coating systems typically found on aircraft structures A variety of new “environmentally acceptable (EA) chemicals” were developed in the last five years to replace MC. These EA chemicals are considered safer because the chemicals are not as volatile, having very low evaporation rates. However, some strongly believe that new EA chemicals may still pose unknown health risks to workers, as well as potentially damage aircraft structures due to long term ingress problems. Because MC strippers evaporate so quickly, problems associated with chemical ingress were rare. The potential for the new EA chemicals to damage and/or corrode sensitive aircraft structures is a new problem due to the low evaporation rates (low volatility) of these MC chemical substitutes. Ten years ago, an alternative non-chemical, paint removal process was introduced to the aerospace industry. This process uses a dry abrasive media, called EnviroStripÒ wheat starch, which is projected at low pressures to remove virtually every type of organic coating from most aerospace materials.

  • 2021 Letter to Stockholders Proxy Statement 2020 Form 10-K
    2021 Letter to Stockholders Proxy Statement 2020 Form 10-K Dear Stockholders, When I last reported to you a year ago, we were closely monitoring the spread of COVID-19 and what 2020 had in store for us. Now, as we enter 2021, I can look back and say I have never been prouder of our team than after seeing how they rose to meet the challenges we faced together over the past year. 2020 Performance and Accomplishments Before I report on our many achievements in 2020, it is important to acknowledge how the pandemic has affected our 39,000 colleagues around the globe. We lost team members to COVID-19, and many of us have lost friends and family members as well. There have been very real economic, emotional and psychological impacts of the virus and the lockdowns that have been neces- sary to combat it. Throughout the year, as the virus first appeared and then spread, we worked to keep our workplaces healthy, our communities resilient, and our global food chain strong. We dramatically expanded our IT infrastructure to allow non-production colleagues to work safely from home, while simultaneously supporting our frontline teams, who continued coming to our production facilities every day. We worked with the University of Illinois on new saliva-based COVID-19 testing capabilities. And we offered financial and other support to colleagues and communities in need. Now, we are focused on helping our team members get vaccinated to protect ourselves and those around us, and accelerate a return to normalcy. Amid all of these challenges, our team delivered for our company and our customers.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.

FEIJÓ PROFESSOR DOUTOR MIGUEL TAMEN Doutoramento em Estudos de Literatura e de Cultura Teoria da Literatura 2014 Acknowledgments The work for this thesis was done under a fellowship granted by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT): the time granted to think is priceless, and I am indeed thankful for being allowed to benefit from it. During this period I have also benefited from the resources put at my disposal by my host institution, the Nova Institute of Philosophy (IFILNOVA). Professor António Feijó has been teaching me since my first year of undergraduate studies and Professor Miguel Tamen since I started graduate studies: I am still to this day amazed at the luck I have for being given the opportunity to work with both of them, and my gratitude for their efforts and enthusiasm in crafting this thesis is immeasurable. As a student of the Program in Literary Theory I must extend my thanks to Professor João Figueiredo, who is an integral part of the Program and with whom I have learnt many valuable things about art. When writing a thesis, a friend who enjoys editing is a blessing one must always be thankful for; in any case, I would gladly dismiss Helena’s editing skills for the friendship which has shaped this work beyond recognition and, necessarily, beyond any written acknowledgment.

SOPHIA MURPHY INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT AND SENIOR ADVISOR AT THE INSTITUTE FOR AGRICULTURE AND TRADE POLICY DR. DAVID BURCH HONORARY PROFESSOR SOCIOLOGY, THE UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND DR. JENNIFER CLAPP PROFESSOR, ENVIRONMENT AND RESOURCE STUDIES AND INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS, UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO The four big commodity traders – Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), Bunge, Cargill and Louis Dreyfus, collectively referred to as ‘the ABCD companies’ – are dominant traders of grain globally and central to the modern agri-food system. This report considers the ABCDs in relation to several global issues pressing on agriculture: the ‘financialization’ of both commodity trade and agricultural production; the emergence of global competitors to the ABCDs, in particular from Asia; and some of the implications of large-scale industrial biofuels, a sector in which the ABCDs are closely involved. The report includes a discussion of how smallholders in developing countries are affected by these changes, and highlights some development policy implications, given the importance of the ABCD firms in shaping the world of food and agriculture. The report highlights the ways in which these four firms are decisive actors in the global restructuring of the overlapping food, feed, and fuel complexes that is now under way, and considers how the firms are evolving as they respond to and shape the new pressures and opportunities in the modern agri-food system.
