Stoichiometry
In chemistry, stoichiometry is the calculation of the quantitative relationships between reactants and products during a chemical reaction. These relationships can be deduced from the atomic theory, although historically spelled out without reference to the composition of matter, according to different laws and principles.
The first to set out the principles of stoichiometry was Jeremias Benjamin Richter (1762-1807) in 1792. He wrote:
Stoichiometry is the science that measures the quantitative

Weathering and Sedimentary Rock Formation
Weathering
Weathering is the process of physical and chemical transformation of parent rocks and primary minerals. This process generates secondary minerals, such as clays, that form soil. Weathering involves chemical reactions where products become reagents for subsequent synthesis. Weathering at the soil surface is called edaphochemical weathering, while weathering in deeper layers (like the C horizon) is called geochemical weathering.
Schistosity
Schistosity is a physical change involving the separation

Waste Minimization Techniques in Production Processes
Minimization Methods
Minimization techniques and procedures can vary significantly across production processes. They don’t necessarily require advanced technologies or large capital investments. Many techniques involve simple changes in material handling and good housekeeping practices.
Four Main Groups of Minimization Techniques
- Inventory Management
- Modification of Production Processes
- Volume Reduction
- Recycling and Recovery
