billion).  Q6  Item 1.3 “Ultrapure Water System”  Question:  Could you please provide information on the following parameters of the feed water  at the facility: total hardness, conductivity, iron. manganese? Information is needed  in order to select the correct ultrapure water system for your feed water.  Parameters of feed water are given below:  Hardness: 297 ppm  Conductivity: 654 microsiemens/cm;  Iron: 4.59  µg/L Manganese: <0.3  µg/L Q7  Item 4 – Ultrasonic Homogenizer  1. What are your process objectives, kind of liquids, involved solids?  2. How much volume would you like to process per time. (hourly/daily)? 3. How long is your daily production time (e.g., 8, 12, 24 hours/day)? 4. What is your result expectation? 5. What is your max. processing temperature? 6. What is approximately the viscosity of your product? 7. What process steps are upstream and downstream of the planned ultrasonic  processing step?  1. Application Examples: Homogenizetion, disruption of cells,  dispersing  and  deagglomeration,  wet-milling&grinding,  emulsifying of hardly mixable liquids, Acceleration of chemical  reactions,  Sample  preparation  of  wastewater  containing  particles, Homogenising of cosmetics in solvents for sample  preparation for analysis etc.  Water, oil and alcohol will be used with solid particles (e.g  ceramic raw materials, glass powder, carbon nanoparticles,  aluminium oxide, silicone dioxide, iron oxide, magnesium.  2. The average amount to be processed is 25L/h.  3. Average use is 8 hours per day  4. It’s expected to obtain homogeneous solutions.  5. Room temperature (20-22°C). 6. The viscosity of the product will vary according to the  CLARIFICATION No: 1 Publication Ref: EuropeAid/140639/IH/SUP/TR  Subject: Supply of Equipment for Advanced Prototype Station (APS) Sayfa  4  /  23
