Abstract: A continuous dryer (3) for plane-shaped articles, in particular for coated inner layers or printed circuit boards, is described which has a drying chamber (4) in which the plane-shaped article to be dried is exposed to a forced air flow (L) while it is transported along a transport path (P) from an entrance (5) to an exit (6) of the drying chamber (4) by transport means preferably acting on its longitudinal margins. The drying chamber (4) is provided with an inlet (7) for supply air (Z) and with an outlet (8) for exhaust air (A). Arranged above and below the transport path (P) of the plane-shaped article are infrared radiators (9), the radiation of which acts directly on the coated article and which in addition form a heat source for the forced air flow (L). The air flow (L) in the drying chamber (4) is forced in the opposite direction to the transport direction (D) of the plane-shaped article and essentially parallel to the transport plane (P). A coating apparatus (1) is also described which incorporates such a continuous dryer (3). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for cleaning sulphur-dioxide-containing gases, such as flue gases, are disclosed. The gases are treated in a gas scrubber (2) for the absorption of sulphur dioxide in an aqueous alkaline washing liquid (3), preferably NaOH. A partial flow (10) is drawn off from the washing liquid to be regenerated by the addition of calcium ions (17) for the precipitation and removal of calcium sulphate. The invention is distinguished by the fact that the precipitated calcium sulphate is recycled and admixed (14) with the partial flow of washing liquid before the addition of calcium ions. The apparatus comprises a gas scrubber (2) having means (5, 6, 7, 9) for circulating the washing liquid (3), a conduit (11) for drawing off a partial flow (10) of washing liquid, a vessel (16) for the addition of calcium ions (17), a vessel (18) for the sedimentation of precipitated calcium sulphate, a vessel (22) for the addition of carbonate ions, a vessel (24) for the sedimentation of calcium carbonate, a conduit (26) for recycling regenerated washing liquid to the gas scrubber (2), and a conduit (25) for recycling precipitated calcium carbonate upstream from the vessel (18) for the sedimentation of calcium sulphate. The apparatus is distinguished by a conduit (19) provided for recycling precipitated calcium sulphate and opening into a vessel (14) which is arranged upstream from the vessel (16) for the addition of calcium ions.

Abstract: The removal of bleaching chemical-consuming metals from treatment fluids in a cellulose pulp mill is facilitated by treating the pulp in an acidic or neutral stage to dissolve metals, washing or thickening the pulp to produce a filtrate containing dissolved metals, and then using an alkali liquid to adjust the pH of the filtrate to cause dissolved metals to precipitate. The alkali liquid is pretreated with carbon dioxide to reduce the sulfide content and increase the carbonate content thereof, preferred alkali liquids being green liquor and white liquor. The reduced-metal content filtrate is used in the bleach plant of the pulp mill, to make bleaching chemicals, as a wash liquid, etc. Treatment of the alkali liquid with carbon dioxide is typically practiced by scrubbing the liquor with carbon dioxide gas, for example, using a plate column scrubber or a stationary packing scrubber.

Abstract: A controlled release aqueous emulsion is disclosed, as are its method of manufacture and use as a vehicle for delivering medicaments in liquid form. A contemplated emulsion comprises an oil-in-water emulsion having an average oil particle size of about 100 nm to about 250 nm, a pH value of about 4.5 to about 8.0 and a viscosity at 20 DEG -25 DEG  C. of 1 to about 1000 cps. The water phase constitutes at least 25 weight percent of the total composition. The oil phase is a wax matrix that is a wax having a melting point of about 40 DEG  to about 80 DEG  C. and is present in an amount of about 3 to about 30 percent of the total composition. A pharmaceutically effective amount of a pharmacologically active compound that is free from decomposition at a temperature below about 90 DEG  C. is dissolved or dispersed in the wax matrix. The oil and water phases are emulsified by an emulsifying agent that provides freedom from phase separation at a pH value of about 4.5 to about 8, while also providing phase separation at a pH value below about 2.0. The emulsifier, based on lecithin, is present at about 2 to about 20 weight percent of the total composition. The composition can also contain zero to about 35 weight percent additional excipient.

Date Feb. 29, 1996In a method of purifying contaminated liquids and gases, a continuous surface film (31) is produced by means of a nozzle (15) and is simultaneously irradiated by a suitable radiation source (17), e.g. an UV lamp. The surface film (31) is discharged as a falling or trickling film (33) which is also exposed to the radiation. A gas for purification is passed through the surface film (31). In these conditions the pollution particles and other pollutants in the gas are absorbed by the liquid. The advantage of the process described is that decomposition of the pollutants can take place both in the gas phase and in the liquid phase. Gas pollutants which are not decomposed in the gas phase are absorbed by the liquid, where they are finally decomposed. With the present invention liquids and gases can be treated simultaneously.

Abstract: The present invention provides a composition and use of a composition comprising a bioadhesive cross-linked polycarboxylic acid polymer formulation that enables the use of relatively low mounts of anti-STD infectants, such as N-9, to be used to prevent infection by STDs without causing the irritation to genital tissue that often accompanies higher doses of anti-STDs. The bioadhesive polymer maintains greater contact between the anti-STD agent and the infectant for a much greater period of time, enabling a lower concentration to act longer on the infectant, when compared to currently-available commercial applications containing N-9. Such delivery will enable a safe and non-irritating decrease in the risk of infection with STDs, including HIV.

Abstract: A device for butt welding pipes of thermoplastic plastic includes two pipe clamping units, aligned flush relative to each other, for clamping pipe ends therein. A first of the two units can be moved in the alignment direction by an electric motor and via mechanical drive elements. The reaction force corresponding to the infeed force is supported on the bottom via a support structure and a pipe end held in the second of the two units which is fixed in relation to the bottom. The mobile pipe end, held in the first pipe clamping unit, can be pressed against the fixed pipe end which is clamped in the second pipe clamping unit with a force measurable by a measurement device. In order to maintain a predetermined pressure course with greater precision and which is independent of changing environment conditions, the torque of the electric motor can be regulated in a closed control circuit as a function of the measurement values of a force, pressure, or torque measuring device which is disposed on a mechanical drive element of the mobile pipe clamping unit and, in fact, preferably on the drive element connected directly in front of this.
