Patent EP-1110605-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CARMELLO DIEGO
IPC: C07C17/10
Filed: 2000-09-18
Abstract: There is disclosed a catalyst support for selective gas phase reactions in a tubular
fixed bed reactor comprising a metallic monolith having channels the walls of which are
adapted to receive a catalytically active phase or an intermediate layer acting as a carrier
for a catalytically active phase. 
     The monoliths are coated with catalytically active material and loaded lengthwise
into tubular reactors, the channels being parallel to the length of the reactors. The catalysts
are particularly useful in the chlorination/oxychlorination of alkenes and alkanes, and the
oxidation of alkenes. 
     Compared with the use of conventional catalysts in pellet form or in the form of
ceramic monoliths the catalysts of the invention offer greater yields and selectivity, the
avoidance of hot spots, greater catalyst life and flexibility in use.

Abstract: Procédé de détermination de la résistance à la fatigue d'un élément de liaison sujet à la corrosion, monté entre au moins deux parties structurales, qui est exposé à un certain environnement corrosif et à une contrainte mécanique prédéfinie répétée lors de son utilisation. Cette détermination est effectuée à l'aide de diagrammes (courbes de Wöhler) représentant la variable de la contrainte répétée en fonction du nombre des répétitions de contrainte jusqu'à la destruction de l'élément de liaison. A cet effet, une pré-corrosion de l'élément de liaison, exempte de contrainte, est d'abord effectuée dans un environnement correspondant à l'environnement corrosif défini, pendant un laps de temps au bout duquel la durée de la pré-corrosion n'a pratiquement plus aucune influence sur le tracé d'une courbe de Wöhler enregistrée ultérieurement. Ensuite, l'élément de liaison pré-corrodé est soumis, également dans un environnement correspondant à l'environnement corrosif défini, à une contrainte mécanique répétée spécifiée, pour l'enregistrement d'une courbe de Wöhler, jusqu'à ce que la résistance à la fatigue soit atteinte. La pré-corrosion est de préférence effectuée à une température supérieure à la température ambiante, la durée de la pré-corrosion s'en trouvant ainsi considérablement réduite.

Abstract: A method for optimally operating co-generation of electricity and heat in which the district heating power range is divided to a lower range and a higher range is characterized in that base load electricity and regulation electricity are produced with a steam turbine operating like a condensing turbine; the lower heating power range (B) is produced mainly by heat pumps using the energy of the exhaust steam of the turbine as an energy source; peak-load power and wintertime regulation electricity are produced with a peak-load engine; and the higher heating power range (A3, A4) is produced partially by heat pumps using said energy as the energy source and partially by the exhaust gas heat of said peak-load engine. Both the electricity and the heat are produced with a remarkably higher fuel utilization rate and significantly more electricity in relation to heat is produced than with conventional district heating power plants. The invention concerns also an optimally operating district heating power plant realizing the above method. At the initial stage of the operation of the district heating power plant, the district heating load being partial, a bigger amount of electricity may be produced of a fuel unit than at the final stage of the operation with a full district heating load. Extra peak power at short notice may be produced with the peak-load engine with a better fuel utilization rate than with the previously known solutions.

Abstract: A press-fit container closure (14) includes a plurality of depending segmented lugs with snap-fit projections for engaging behind the rim of a container mouth. An integral band (30) embraces the lugs to lock the closure (14) securely on the container mouth. To remove the closure (14), the band (30) is lifted away (e.g. pivoted upwards). The lugs are then free to flex outwardly, allowing the closure (14) to be lifted off the container mouth. The band (30) may be secured to the lugs by frangible connections (34) to provide a tamper evident feature. One or more predetermined lugs may be designed to be released prior to other lugs during opening, to vent internal pressure from within the container while the remaining lugs hold the closure securely and prevent the closure from blowing off the container mouth. The closure may have a dome-shaped upper surface and may be lined. The closure is particularly suited for use with containers having mouths of at least 40 mm diameter.
