Abstract: The invention relates to a method of separating solids from a gas flow in a fluidized catalytic process and to a cyclone assembly suited for use in a fluidized catalytic process. According to the invention, the gas flow of the process carrying the suspended solids is passed into a separation assembly, wherein the solids are separated from the gaseous phase under the effect of the centrifugal force, whereby a multiport cyclone is used as the separation assembly, into which the gas flow to be treated is passed via an inlet nozzle having an axially annular cross section. The use of the multiport cyclone, e.g., in an FCC process gives significant advantages in flow dynamics and process engineering over conventional arrangements and generally used single-port cyclones.

Abstract: The preferred embodiments provide for a family of novel compositions to serve as substrates that release hydroxy acid slowly over time. Preferably the hydroxy acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid, more preferably it is lactic acid. The compositions are preferably made by reaction of poly(lactic acid) with multifunctional alcohols. Also disclosed are formulations based on the compounds and methods of use for both the compositions and the formulations. The preferred use of the compositions and formulations is for bioremediation purposes wherein they provide a time-release source of lactic acid to support the growth and reductive activity of microbes present in a system or medium, such as an aquifer, bioreactor, soil, industrial process, wastestream, body of water, river or well. The microbes destroy or inactivate compounds which are capable of being reduced, such as nitrogen-containing organic compounds, oxygen-containing organic compounds, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, and halogen-containing organic compounds.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for extracting chrominance shape information for an interlaced scan type image, which are used in a video compression coding/decoding system or a video manipulation equipment/system. According to the present invention, in an interlaced scan type image with arbitrary luminance shape information, chrominance shape information is extracted on the basis of four adjacent luminance shape pixels in two lines of the same type field. The present method and apparatus can solve a color bleeding problem in a conventional chrominance shape information extraction method considering no characteristic of the interlaced scan type image. Therefore, the present invention has the effect of significantly improving subjective picture quality. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Bei Kraftstoffversorgungsanlagen mit zwei in Reihe geschalteten Kraftstoffpumpen war bisher eine zufriedenstellend genaue Regelung der von der zweiten Kraftstoffpumpe geförderten Kraftstoffmenge trotz hohem Aufwand nicht zufriedenstellend möglich.

Abstract: The magnet (13) is associated with a bimetallic strip (26), an armature (25) and a moving contact (38) on a board (11). The moving contact co-operates with two fixed contacts on the housing and is connected to a conductor (31). A plastic-bonded rectangular permanent magnet (12) forms North- and South-seeking poles on the faces (21,22) of the armature. Cooling of the surroundings reduces the curvature of the bimetallic strip so that the armature moves further into the sphere of influence of the permanent magnet until it is abruptly attracted to it. This results in a changeover of contacts which persists until the room is warmed up again.
