  Oxidizer Propellant Mix   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Oxidizer propellant mix is the ratio of oxidizer to the mix of the oxidizer and propellant.
The amount of propellant is related to the amount of oxidizer because oxidizers are sometimes used in a water solution, for instance seventy percent hydrogen peroxide has often been used in liquid rockets.
The oxidizer propellant mix is used to calculate the oxidizer mass ratio, oxidizer mix and propellant mix.

Calling such a device a "rocket" is a little confusing since we have already said that a rocket carries its own supply of oxidizer, but that is the name this class of propulsion system has been given.

 What is a Thermal Oxidizer?
Thermal oxidizers are sometimes divided into non-flame oxidizers, which use slow heating to incinerate pollutants, and direct flame thermal oxidizers, which use plumes of flame.
In catalytic oxidization, organic compounds pass over a support material coated with a catalyst, commonly a noble metal such as platinum or rhodium, that encourages the pollutants in the air to burn.
A recuperative thermal oxidizer uses a heat exchanger in the form of a plate, shell, or tube to heat intake air with the thermal energy from the oxidization process.

 AEHS Magazine- April/May 2002 - Flameless Oxidizer Treats Variable Concentration VOCs in Thermally Enhanced Remediation ...
This controls the oxidizer at a stable operating temperature, provided the energy content of the well gases is less than a maximum capacity for the unit specified.
Optimal sizing of the unit is therefore based on a combination of factors including the capital and operating costs of the unit compared to the magnitude and frequency of the expected VOCs concentration spikes and the sophistication of the control system used to accommodate these spikes.
The flow rate of the combined flow streams (well gases and dilution air) is measured using a venturi flow element and a differential pressure transmitter, and the flow rate of the dilution air is modulated using a conventional flow control damper.

 Catalytic Oxidizer Eliminates VOCs and Odor from Exhaust Air Stream
Exhaust air from the process is ducted to the catalytic oxidizer system, passing through a heat exchanger for preheating and then into the burner chamber where the air is heated to the specific VOC catalyst reaction temperature.
Catalytic oxidizers are used when the solvent content of an exhaust stream is not sufficient to oxidize without adding excessive energy to the process.
The oxidizer further reduces fuel consumption by using an air-to-air exhaust preheat heat exchanger subsystem, which recovers exhaust heat for use in preheating the solvent-laden air before it enters the burner chamber.

 MSN Encarta - Rocket (physics)
Rocket (physics), general term for a jet propulsion device propelled by the expulsion of gases generated in a combustion chamber (see Jet Propulsion).
Because the combustible propellants contain both fuel and an oxidizer, a rocket develops thrust independent of its surroundings, unlike other types of jet engines that utilize oxygen from the atmosphere to burn fuel carried aboard (see Combustion).
Modern types of solid propellants are synthetic rubbers with an oxidizer such as ammonium perchlorate mixed in during the manufacturing process.

While the thermal oxidizer may have a lower initial cost, over a two year span TCO of the thermal oxidizer can be 3-4 times that of a catalytic oxidizer or regenerative oxidizer.
Recuperative thermal oxidizers provide high VOC destruction efficiency, but are very costly to operate due to the high operating temperature (1400F) and low thermal efficiency of this design.
A thermal oxidizer utilizes a burner and a heat exchanger to heat the contaminated airstream and break the hydrocarbon bonds, recombining the carbon, hydrogen and oxygen to produce water vapor and carbon dioxide.

The oxidizer was installed to control volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from its flexographic printing presses.
Before making the decision to purchase the catalytic oxidizer, [Multifilm] was planning to convert entirely to water-based inks to reduce VOC emissions.
When the VOC emissions from the printing press exhaust stream are mixed with oxygen at elevated temperatures within the oxidizer, the VOCs chemically break down to form carbon dioxide and water.

 Fast Oxidizer Diet   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Slower oxidizers have lower levels of blood lipid (cholesterol, triglyceride) and citric acid cycle intermediates and higher levels of pyruvate and lactate.
Fast oxidizers tend to have strong appetites, crave and do well on heavy proteins and fatty foods, tend to get hyper yet feel exhausted underneath, feel anxious, nervous, jittery, have severe emotional ups and downs, feel too warm, irritable, impatient, are competitive and usually extroverted.
They tend to be unable to hold their breath a long period (one can consider the fast oxidizer functionally anemic due to low oxygen capacity in the blood) and have a relatively faster pulse rate.

Because the oxidation reaction is chemically equivalent to combustion, the amount of heat generated by oxidizing a quantity of hydrocarbon is the same as the amount of heat generated by burning that quantity of that compound.
Thermal oxidizers promote the oxidation reaction either by heating the airstrem to the point where the reaction occurs spontaneously or by heating the airstream and exposing it to a catalyst.
Oxidizers using the former are generally referred to as thermal oxidizers and oxidizers using the latter are generally referred to as catalytic oxidizers.

Automobiles use gasoline (or diesel) as fuel; the oxidizer is simply oxygen from the atmosphere.
No oxidizer is used in the thrusters so there is no combustion; the fuel sprays out over a heated material (a "catalyst") that causes it to break apart into nitrogen and hydrogen gas, moving the spacecraft in the direction opposite to where the thruster is pointed.
Helium (2.25 kilograms, or 5 pounds) is used to maintain pressure in the fuel and oxidizer lines.
