Patent EP-0656336-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SCARLETT JOHN
IPC: B01J23/78
Filed: 1994-01-06
Abstract: A process is described for the production of a hydroxylic compound selected from alcohols and diols by hydrogenation of a hydrogenatable material selected from monoesters of carboxylic acids, monoesters of dicarboxylic acids, diesters of dicarboxylic acids, aldehydes, olefinically unsaturated aldehydes, and mixtures of two or more thereof, which process comprises the steps of:
     (a) providing a hydrogenation zone containing a charge of a granular hydrogenation catalyst which has a total surface area of at least about 15 m²/g, a pore size distribution such that more than 50% of the pore volume is provided by pores in the size range less than about 40 nm, and a surface area distribution such that more than 50% of the total surface area is provided by pores in the size range of from about 7 nm to about 40 nm;   (b) supplying to the hydrogenation zone a feed stream of a mixture containing hydrogen and the hydrogenatable material;   (c) maintaining the hydrogenation zone under temperature and pressure conditions which are conducive to effecting hydrogenation of the hydrogenatable material; and   (d) recovering from the hydrogenation zone a product stream comprising the hydroxylic compound.   
     The process is exemplified by the hydrogenation of dimethyl 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate to yield 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol.

Abstract: A calibration device, method and apparatus is provided for checking calibration of a breath alcohol measuring instrument (10). A silicon wafer (76) with an anti-reflective silicon monoxide coating (78) on both sides is used to attenuate the infrared radiation in the range of 3.35 to 3.80 microns wavelength in a manner to simulate the attenuation caused by a breath sample containing 0.10 BrAC. A comparison of the signal generated by the attenuation at a wavelength of approximately 3.48 microns is made to the baseline signal obtained before placing the calibration disk (12) in the IR beam path (42) and accurately simulates the breath sample. The related breath alcohol measuring method and apparatus provides for the positioning of the composite disk (12) in the path (42) between the infrared source (34) and receiver (36). A computer (56) compares the signals and performs the calibration check, as well as the actual BrAC analysis.

Abstract: An electromagnetic confining apparatus (30) prevents the escape of molten metal (38) through the open end (36) of a vertically extending gap (35) between two horizontally extending members (31,32), such as two counter-rotating rolls of a continuous strip caster. The molten metal (38) is located between the two members. The apparatus includes a vertically disposed coil (40) through which flows a time-varying electric current to generate a first horizontal magnetic field adjacent the open end of the gap. A time-varying conduction current is directed through the pool of molten metal adjacent the open end of the gap (35), in a vertical direction opposite that of the current flow in the adjacent portion of the coil. The flow of conduction current through the molten metal pool generates a second horizontal magnetic field adjacent the open end of the gap (35) and which augments the first horizontal magnetic field to provide a repulsive body pressure which urges the pool of molten metal inwardly away from the open end of the gap (35).

Abstract: During the pressing of bales in a baler, a portion of a press channel (1) in front of a retracted press ram (2) is in each case completely filled with material to be compacted. During compacting, the pressure forces exerted on the press ram (2) have a resultant which intersects the side (3) of the press ram (2) directed in pressing direction (11) below the center (7) thereof or below the center of the press channel section at the location of that side (3) of the press ram (2). The press ram shows less tendency to tilt, as a consequence of which the press ram guide is less loaded and less friction occurs between the press ram and the press channel. As a result, the bale is compressed more properly and the press ram guide wears less.
