Entropy of vaporization — The entropy of vaporization is the increase in entropy when vaporizing a substance. This is always positive since the degree of disorder increases in the transition from an organized crystalline solid or a slightly less organized liquid to the… … Wikipedia
Fusion torch — is a concept for the application of ultra high temperature plasmas found in fusion reactors. Because of the special properties of fusion plasmas it is possible to reduce any material to its basic elements for separation. This effectively closes… … Wikipedia
