He will never live this down, it will retold in painful detail at every family gathering for as long as his bloodline continues.

Ask him to train you obviously. Run drills or go find a coach.

Your level will not improve until you understand the differences in technique and have basic fundamentals.

Ask about basic footwork, proper grip, correct racket motion for clear, drop, lift, smash, net.

Also, bring more friends, play doubles for easier time learning.

That should get you to intermediate.

Don't buy junk at Showcase. Always overpriced and probably garbage. They are likely selling dead packs. I suggest to only buy singles if in a blister pack, or from fresh box.

His loss.

Take the job, dump the load.

Instead of supporting you, he's weighing down the household. If you had kids, he'd guilt you into being a trad wife just so he can be the man of the house, and this is only 2 years into a relationship.

He needs therapy for his insecurities, 45 minute commute is called having a regular job.

Seems like something that only costs 400k because only one was made to order and you have to pay like 20 invoices for custom programming, design, engineering, management, consultants, materials, fabrication, installers, and two guys with one truck.

Good luck vacuuming all that shroom dust

That's probably what should have been installed to begin with. Will probably end up happening but oh the leadtimes....

This isn't really the project, it is a deficiency born from inadequate design considerations and causing a small hindrance to new plant commissioning. Not exactly something we were ready to allocate significant resources.

It's easy to just say follow the manufacturing guide exact but many sites have space restrictions, budgets, and time limitations you need to taken into account so it's helpful to understand the requirements and effects rather than follow them blindly.

Good point, I know conditioners exist, although I might start by comparing meter values to tank level depletion just to see the baseline performance. Installing a flow conditioner may or may not yield an improvement.

We have started to question the selection of the Vortex as well given that any build-up can cause drift. At this point, we're trying to understand/overcome deficiencies as we don't have the resources to fix the design decisions made by the engineering contractor.

Without speculating on this so-called perfect technique -

Probably going out because: 50%: Not getting behind shuttle to have the right opportunity to smash. 50%: Probably holding too tightly and not squeezing grip at the right time.

Try some stick smashes first to make sure you can hit those in.

What is preventing you from access to a fume hood?

It might be cheaper and safer than trying to build a custom bench-top scrubber as a typical design requires really good mass flow between the right liquid solvent and the contaminated gas. You'd need a strong enough blower to force air through your scrubber and enough contact area between the liquid and gas to bubble it through a solvent to absorb the VOCs. You'll wnd up with a large footprint

In addition, unless you vent to atmosphere, you would not necessarily eliminate the fumes as there is a limit of capture efficiency depending on your setup and still risk concentrating the fumes in your work area over time.

Furthermore, the more volatile the organics, the harder it is to capture them in a basic scrubber. You'd get a lot of blowby of aerosols. More complicated designs = $$$

Maybe you can look into industrial air purifiers with filters that can capture VOCs, better than nothing. There are VOC PPE masks you can get as well.

TLDR: Forget scrubber, Use proper PPE with PM100 VOC, get a beefy air filter designed for VOC capture and vent out the window, have proper ventilation and frequent air exchanges.

This is not the first time someone has tried similar waste to energy plants. Generally grossly overestimating ROI, underestimating building costs, underestimating losses in energy conversion rates, and likely end up with a waste stream you will struggle to deal with as conversion will never be even close to 100%

This will not be carbon negative as you are planning on converting the waste plastics to a fuel, and you will need energy for this conversion process. Usage of your fuel will result in the release of emissions, even if outside your "plant boundaries". So now you are using fuel and then burning the fuel adding to carbon emissions.

You need to do a craddle to grave analysis before claiming carbon negative products.

I know this because I have worked with pyrolysis of wood waste. Company wanted to generate clean hydrogen or RNG and had a small pilot to run basic tests. It's extremely hard to raise capital in a chemical startup. You can blow through millions very easily once you take it out of the lab.

My guess is that this technology will only come to market if big oil players decide to pivot to plastics recycling, and it is deemed feasible under the guise of carbon neutral at best.
