What is the fact that all common people should know and not only pharmacists/chemists/Doctors?

While giving First Aid don't use Savlon directly on your wounds.

Before the usage of Savlon for any purpose, it should be diluted.

This is more important for using it on wounds since undiluted Savlon can do more harm than help.

For first aid, savlon:clean water=1:15.


:)

Edit: Dettol too needs dilution. The recommended dilution is 1:20.

What is dead-heading a pump?

A dead-head is caused when a centrifugal pump operates with no flow through the pump due to a closed discharge valve or blockage in the line. The pump is forced to circulate the pumped medium, causing the temperature to continually rise. As the fluid churns inside the pump it heats into a vapor. Once a vapor is created, any bushings or mechanical seals in the pump heat to the point that they begin to crack, shatter, score or compromise the elastomers - killing the pump. When a centrifugal pump is dead-heading, it can lead to explosions, due to the energy being put into the liquid in the pump. Hydraulic overpressure and possible chemical reactions in the pump can also be caused by the overexertion of pressure. The same results can be caused by running the pump dry for an extended period - which can lead to cavitation.

Difference between SS316 and SS316L. what is the selection criteria?

𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝟑𝟏𝟔/𝟑𝟏𝟔 𝐋: Stainless steel 316 and 316L are both austenitic stainless steels with similar compositions, but they have some key differences. The "L" in 316L stands for "low carbon," indicating that it has a lower carbon content than 316. 𝕊𝕥𝕒𝕚𝕟𝕝𝕖𝕤𝕤 𝕊𝕥𝕖𝕖𝕝 𝟛𝟙𝟞: ▪️Composition: Contains about 16-18% chromium, 10-14% nickel, 2-3% molybdenum, and small amounts of other elements. 👉🏼Use: Widely used in chemical processing equipment, pharmaceuticals, and marine applications. Commonly used in situations where exposure to harsh chemicals and corrosive environments is expected. Suitable for high-temperature applications. 𝕊𝕥𝕒𝕚𝕟𝕝𝕖𝕤𝕤 𝕊𝕥𝕖𝕖𝕝 𝟛𝟙𝟞𝕃: Composition: Similar to 316 but with a lower carbon content (max 0.03% compared to 0.08% in 316). 👉🏼Use: Preferred in applications where welding is required, as the lower carbon content minimizes the risk of carbide precipitation and subsequent corrosion.
