Term: Mass Transfer Coefficient
Definition: A parameter that quantifies the rate of mass transfer between phases and is essential for calculating evaporation rates.
Term: FirstOrder Reaction
Definition: A type of reaction where the rate is directly proportional to the concentration of one reactant, commonly applied in evaporation modeling.
Term: Dispersion Model
Definition: A mathematical framework that describes the spreading of pollutants in the environment, factoring in wind speed and other parameters.
Term: Correlation Data
Definition: A set of empirical or theoretical estimates that relates mass transfer coefficients to environmental scenarios.
Term: Emergency Response System
Definition: Plans and mathematical models developed to respond quickly and effectively to chemical spills or contamination events.
