MPGC: The M C classifies products based on two criteria: 1) criteria for durability and tangibility: C non-durable goods, durable goods, and b of C ss; 2) the purchase process: convenience, impulse purchase, specialty, and unsought.

PGC: We understand that everyday consumers often acquire products that are frequently destroyed through use, which must necessarily be low-cost replacements. This implies that the buying process usually involves minimal cognitive effort; the search for information and evaluation of alternatives are minimal, if not fundamentally nonexistent. These are referred to as convenience products.

According to the AMA, the PGC is a process of planning and implementing the concept, price, promotion, and distribution of products... Continue reading "Understanding Consumer Behavior in Product Purchase Decisions" »

Written on in English with a size of 2.63 KB

Escape the Atmosphere

In some situations, it is necessary to evacuate air contaminants, either because their uptake is impractical or because the investment is not economically justified. To carry out an evacuation of the gaseous atmosphere, it is necessary to understand certain characteristics:

  1. The emitter source.
  2. The behavior of the surrounding atmosphere.

Factors Determining Pollutant Dispersion

The factors determining the dispersion of pollutants are:

A) Weather Factors: Temperature and Wind

1. Temperature

This is the most important effect. When an air mass has a higher temperature than the surrounding air mass, it ascends due to lower density. As it rises, this mass expands, reducing its temperature at a rate of approximately -10°C per kilometer.... Continue reading "Atmospheric Pollutant Dispersion Dynamics" »
