SterilMed Inc., a firm that "reprocesses" single-use medical devices such as catheters, has been sold to a pair of private-equity firms, the company announced Thursday. ❋ Unknown (2010)
But the new thinking is that, during sleep, the brain reprocesses or transforms fragile new memories into more permanent forms, sets them in mental context and extracts their meaning. ❋ Matt Ridley (2011)
South Korea buys far more petrochemicals from elsewhere in the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kuwait, then reprocesses and exports refined products mainly to China and other Asian nations. ❋ Evan Ramstad (2011)
With unflinching honesty, the pint-sized poet and divinity scholar from Texas processes and reprocesses what unfolds around her in the old quarter of Damascus and inside a stark desert monastery, while dissecting the failings of her intimate relationships with her lovers and with God. ❋ Jan McGirk (2010)
France built standardized reactor designs (cutting costs and easing training requirements), chemically reprocesses spent nuclear fuel (to cut the volume and extend the life of fuel stockpiles), invests vigorously in research, and has a steady stream of technicians trained in their nuclear navy that transition into their plants. ❋ Unknown (2008)
We can easily reprocesses the vast majority of our waste as the French do. ❋ Unknown (2009)
France, which completely reprocesses its recyclable material, stores all the unused remains -- from 30 years of generating 75% of its electricity from nuclear energy -- beneath the floor of a single room at La Hague. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Russia also reprocesses some of its spent fuel from Soviet-designed reactors in other countries. ❋ Unknown (2009)
IFR produces only short-lived waste, has plenty of fast neutrons spare for transmutation of long-lived waste, and reprocesses spent fuel (which is over 90% unspent fuel, and currently completely wasted!) into fresh fuel on site, eliminating risky transport of spent fuel. ❋ Unknown (2006)
So, France, which currently reprocesses reactor cores, pours enormous amounts of radioactive and chemical waste into the North Sea (as do several other countries) and that waste is then spread throughout the planet. ❋ Unknown (2007)
It also reprocesses nuclear fuel, one of the more sensitive parts of the nuclear chain, as it involves handling of radioactive plutonium. ❋ Unknown (2007)
But, again, that's where a good therapist can help her reprocesses what happened to her in a way that really helps her become stronger. ❋ Unknown (2003)
And look at what Mr. Perutz concedes: Britain reprocesses wastes from its own and foreign civil reactors, and, in the course of producing plutonium, flushes plutonium into the sea, where a quarter ton of it has now accumulated. ❋ Robinson, Marilynne (1990)
The plant that reprocesses sewage to get organic nutrients for the hydroponic farms, and the plant that digests hydroponic vegetation to make nutrients for the carniculture vats. ❋ H. Beam Piper (1934)
France produces 1,300 tons of nuclear waste per year, and reprocesses 940 tons. ❋ Unknown (2011)
The country gets roughly three-quarters of its power from nuclear plants and reprocesses its fuel, a technique that reduces the quantity of waste but is expensive and also creates plutonium, which can be used in nuclear weapons. ❋ By KATE GALBRAITH (2011)
The one image shows the front camera lens cap and the other shows the rear camera lens cap, not one lens cap that moved, said Ted Stryk, a photo editor who reprocesses and enhances many NASA and Soviet space program images. ❋ Unknown (2012)
Sellafield, about 250 miles northwest of London, was the site of Britain's first nuclear power plant, but now only reprocesses nuclear waste. ❋ Unknown (2011)
