A special feature of the motorways is the use of Porous Asphalt Concrete, which allows water to be drained efficiently, and even in heavy rain, no water will splash up, in contrast with concrete or other pavement types.

Porous pavement designed to reduce frost heave has been used successfully in Norway.

The company has announced an agreement to acquire water filtration and separation firm Porous Media for approximately $ 225 million and has said that it plans to continue an active course of acquisitions, especially to grow its business outside the US.

The airport has one runway designated 15 / 33 with a PEM ( Porous European Mix ) surface measuring 10, 000 by 200 feet ( 3, 048 x 61 m ).

Porous silicon ( p-Si ) is a form of the chemical element silicon which has introduced nanoporous holes in its microstructure, rendering a large surface to volume ratio in the order of 500 m < sup > 2 </ sup >/ cm < sup > 3 </ sup >.

Porous insulations accomplish this by trapping air so that significant convective heat loss is eliminated, leaving only conduction and minor radiation transfer.

Porous asphalt is mixed at conventional asphalt plants, but fine ( small ) aggregate is omitted from the mixture.

Porous silicon formation by stain-etching is particularly attractive because of its simplicity and the presence of readily available corrosive reagents ; namely nitric acid ( HNO3 ) and hydrogen fluoride ( HF ).

Porous silicon is systematically prone to presence of cracks when the water is evaporated.

Construction of a high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell | PEMFC: Bipolar plate as electrode with in-milled gas channel structure, fabricated from conductive composite material | composite s ( enhanced with graphite, carbon black, carbon fiber, and / or carbon nanotube s for more conductivity ); Porous carbon papers ; reactive layer, usually on the polymer membrane applied ; polymer membrane. Condensation of water produced by a PEMFC on the air channel wall.

Porous asphalt surfaces are being used on highways to improve driving safety by removing water from the surface.

Porous materials are classified into several kinds by their size.

* Porous ceramic filtration, using either clay or diatomaceous earth, and oriented as either cylinder, pot, or disk, with gravity-fed or siphon-driven delivery systems.

Porous absorbers, typically open cell rubber foams or melamine sponges, absorb noise by friction within the cell structure.

Porous open cell foams are highly effective noise absorbers across a broad range of medium-high frequencies.

Porous pavements and concrete pavers ( actually the voids in-between them ) enable stormwater to drain through a stone base layer for on-site infiltration and filtering.

Porous turf, if properly constructed, can be used for occasional parking like that at churches and stadia.

Porous pots are usually clay and are highly recommended because they provide better aeration as air passes laterally through the sides of the pot.

Porous membranes are intended on separation of larger molecules such as solid colloidal particles, large biomolecules ( proteins, DNA, RNA ) and cells from the filtering media.

Porous membranes find use in the microfiltration, ultrafiltration, and dialysis applications.

Porous membranes can also be utilized for the gas separation.

Porous polymeric or ceramic membranes for ultrafiltration serve the purpose.

Asphalt concrete has different performance characteristics in terms of surface durability, tire wear, braking efficiency and roadway noise.

Aside from the state owned company, a private company by the name of PT Buton Asphalt Indonesia has been actively producing natural rock asphalt from Buton as bitumen modifiers as well as a substitute to petroleum asphalt to reduce dependence on conventional fossil based resources.

The disorderly growth of the city also has made the soil of the basin of the Tietê in the region of Greater São Paulo impenetrable: Asphalt, roofs, pavements and courtyards prevent the rain water from penetrating into the ground in order to be temporarily retained, and then slowly seep into the river.

" They both owe something to John Huston's " The Asphalt Jungle " ( 1950 ), which has the general idea but not the attention to detail.

Asphalt or or, also known as bitumen, is the sticky, black and highly viscous liquid or semi-solid present in most crude petroleums and in some natural deposits ; it is a substance classed as a pitch.

Asphalt also dissolves readily when exposed to oils and some solvents.

As such, even though the criminals are caught, Armored Car Robbery tested the waters and helped set the stage for other film noirs and heist films like: The Asphalt Jungle ( 1950 ) and The Killing ( 1956 ) which shares some similarities.

His films include the film noir classic The Asphalt Jungle ( 1950 ), the 1960 Hitchcock thriller Psycho and the 1960 drama Elmer Gantry, but some of his more memorable roles were in westerns such as the acclaimed Winchester ' 73 ( 1950 ) and The Far Country ( 1955 ), both with James Stewart, and The Tin Star, with Henry Fonda ( 1957 ).
