Tech/Engineering - Geology / Protection of the wells
English term or phrase: pprh
Wrażenie w kontekście zabezpieczenia odwiertów żelem, składającym się z polimerów - chodzi o jednostkę opisującą ich stężenie. Niestety kontekstu brak, ponieważ są to główki tabeli. Znalazłam coś takiego jak PPRH=polypropylene rice husk, ale czy to jest to samo? I ja to przerobić na język polski?
Dziękuję i pozdrawiam.

ppm części na milion
Explanation:
I am not familiar with pprh, but it is quite likely that the term is really "ppm" - parts per million - części na milion - and that pprh is a scanning error. [take the top part of h off and it looks like "n". "r" and "n" together look like "rn", which is very close to "m".) Clearly, ppm is a measure of concentration.
cccccccccccc
An example of the same mistake:

The fuel oil is preferably a low sulphur content fuel oil. Typically, the sulphur content of the fuel oil will be less than 500 ppm (parts per million by weight). Preferably, the sulphur content of the fuel will be less than 100 ppm, for example, less than 50 ppm. Fuel oils with even lower sulphur contents, for example less that 20 pprh or less than 10 ppm are also suitable. As outlined above, it is with these low sulphur fuels that problems with low inherent conductivity are more commonly experienced.

ppm in proper context:

On March 11, 1996, a MARCIT™ polymer-gel treatment was pumped in the SU 10-28 well.

Treatment consisted of three stages of 6000, 8000 and 10,000 ppm concentrations of polymer-gel.
