Title: Process for upgrading coal tar materials
IPC: C10C1/20
Filed: 1972-08-21
Abstract: 1437077 Coal tar of increased viscosity BRITISH STEEL CORP (CHEMICALS) Ltd 17 Aug 1973 [21 Aug 1972] 38929/72 Heading C5E The viscosity of coal tar material is increased by subjecting the material to shear in an oxidizing atmosphere. The process may be conducted at 140‹ to 277‹ C. The material may be crude or refined coal tar, oils and pitches, such as the coal tar fractions naphthalene oil, wash oil, anthracene or heavy oil. The process may be conducted using coal tar pitch at 140‹ to 190‹ C. with the oxidizing atmosphere produced by flowing atmospheric air over the pitch at the rate of 1100 to 2300 mls. per kg per minute. Heat is removed during the process to prevent undesirable distillation and the shear may be applied by a shearing head comprising a rotor and shearing ring, the rate of shear being above 18,000 sec<SP>-1</SP>.

Title: Isobaric process for molecular sieve separation of normal paraffins from hydrocarbonmixtures
IPC: B01D53/04
Filed: 1965-09-13
Abstract: 1,126,121. Separating hydrocarbons. UNION CARBIDE CORP. 13 Sept.. 1965 [14 Sept., 1964], No. 38958/65. Heading B1L. [Also in Division C5] Normal paraffins are separated from a kerosene feed 10 by heating the feed in heater 12 to 500-800‹F., preferably to 600-635‹F. and passing the vapourized feed into one of two beds 15. 46 containing a zeolitic molecular sieve of about 5Š pore size maintained at the same temperature and at 20-65 p.s.i.a. throughout the process. Prior to such an adsorption stage, the particular bed used has been purged with n-hexane in a previous cycle, so that the effluent leaving by line 19 comprises kerosene depleted of n-paraffins but containing n-hexane: this effluent passes to column 20 where it is separated into an overhead stream 23 of n-hexane which passes to tank 38, and a bottom stream 21 of branched hydrocarbons which leaves the system. When the leading adsorption front has reached a predetermined point in the adsorption bed, the feed to that bed is terminated, and n-hexane purge vapour (obtained from tank 38 by lines 40, 28. 50 and 17) passed through the bed in a direction countercurrent to that of the feed. The resulting effluent passes by line 30 to phase separator 30c, and thence to column 31 where it is separated into n-paraffin bottoms and n-hexane overhead. The former product leaves the system by line 32, while the overhead passes to tank 38, as does the gas phase of n-hexane from separator 30c. In a preferred embodiment n-hexane vapour is passed into the adsorber through line 26 in a direction cocurrent to the feed after the feed has been discontinued, but before the countercurrent purge step begins, in order to remove residual kerosene from the bed. By using two adsorption columns, the process may be conducted continuously, one column being in the adsorption phase while the other is in the purge phase.

Abstract: 882,183. Collapsible cartons. BOXFOLDIA Ltd. March 14. 1960 [Dec. 13, 1958], No. 40245/58. Class 18. A rectangular blank for making a collapsible carton as in Specification 852,846 is cut along lines 22 to form wings 17 integral with wall panels 12 along fold lines 20, the lines 20 being inclined at more than 90 degrees but less than 95 degrees to the fold lines 21 between the base panel 10 and the wall panels 12 and the lines 20, 22 being mutually perpendicular. The flaps 13, which are coated with adhesive, are formed by fold lines 14 inclined at less than 45 degrees to the fold lines 15 between the base panel and wall panels 11. The inclination of folds 14 is preferably 44 degrees and of folds 20 it is 92 degrees. Thus when the wings 17 are folded to overlie flaps 13, Fig. 1, with their outer edges 18, 23 coincident, they bend near their inner edges 22 and are pressed against the base 10 and so support the walls 11, Flaps 13 are glued to the wings 17 and the carton collapses along fold lines 14 to lie within the outline of the base. A similar carton may be used as lid for the box when erected or a lid portion may be integral with one of the wall panels. The carton may be converted in to a three-sided tray by omitting one wall panel 12 and its wings 17. On the open side the edges 16 and 21 would then be continuous. The carton may be cut away on this open side.

The noise level contour from the main nozzle without the auxiliary nozzle in operation is indicated by the line 26 and that with the auxiliary nozzle in operation is indicated by line 27 so that the noise level is effectively reduced in the zone indicated angle Y 1  vertically beneath the nozzle; the noise level in the regions indicated by angle Y 2  at either side of the silenced region Y 1  is however increased. Further auxiliary nozzles such as 18, Fig. 2, (not shown) may be disposed laterally of the main nozzle so that gas may be discharged therefrom to silence these regions in the event of the aircraft banking whereby the increased noise level would be directly beneath the aircraft. Various other arrangements are described in which the auxiliary nozzle may be of isosceles triangle form with the apex disposed inwardly or outwardly with respect to the main nozzle; also with the inclination angle of the auxiliary nozzle to the main nozzle at 25 degrees and 55 degrees.
