Abstract: A method with associated equipment for feeding two gases into and out of a multi-channel monolithic structure. The two gases will normally be gases with different chemical and/or physical properties. The first gas and the second gas are fed by means of a manifold head into channels for the first and second gases, respectively. The gases are distributed in the monolith in such a way that at least one of the channel walls is a shared or joint wall for both gases. The walls that are joint walls for the two gases will then constitute a contact area between the two gases that is available for mass and/or heat exchange. This means that the gases must be fed into channels that are spread over the entire cross-sectional area of the monolith. The entire contact area or all of the monolith's channel walls are directly used for heat and/or mass transfer between the gases. This means that the channel for one gas will always have the other gas on the other side of its channel walls.

Abstract: In a shoe press belt (10) of a papermaking machine, the part of the paper web-facing layer in which water-holding grooves (40) are formed is composed of a surface sublayer (52), having a relatively low hardness, and an underlying layer (43) having a relatively high hardness. The higher hardness of the underlying layer (43) prevents cracks from forming where the cross-sectional shape of the grooves (40) tends to change as the belt is compressed. The lower hardness of the surface sublayer (52) prevents the formation of cracks as a result of forces acting on the belt in the direction opposite to the machine direction at the nip location in a papermaking machine. <IMAGE>
