Abstract: A vertical synchronization signal detector for detecting a vertical synchronization signal in a composite video signal. The detector comprises an input (1) for receiving the composite video signal, a first detector (4,16,22) for detecting equalization pulses occurring in the composite video signal and for generating a first detection signal upon detection of an equalization pulse, a second detector (4,16,20) for detecting horizontal sync pulses occurring in the composite video signal and for generating a second detection signal upon detection of an horizontal sync pulse, a third detector (4,12) for detecting negative going pulses occurring in the composite video signal that have a longer duration than the horizontal sync pulses and for generating a third detection pulse upon detection of such a pulse, a first signal combination unit (FF1) for generating a fourth detection signal (VBI) in response to at least one first and second detection signal generated by the first and second detector respectively, a first counter (58) for counting, when being enabled, the number of occurrences of second detection signals generated by the second detector and for generating a first control signal upon the detection of n occurrences of such second detection signals, where n is a constant integer larger than 1. Further, a second signal combination unit (AND) is provided for combining the third and fourth detection signals so as to obtain a second control signal. A third signal combination unit (FF2) receives the first control signal generated by the first counter and the second control signal from the second signal combination unit and generates in response thereto an output signal which is indicative of the occurrence of the vertical synchronization signal. The first counter is in an enabled state upon the presence of the output signal of the third signal combination unit (FF2).

Abstract: This new method recycles dust formed in brake lining manufacture. In the new process, the dust will be granulated. It is first extracted and collected at diverse points, from finishing operations. The dusts are then combined in predetermined proportions. The mixture is compacted to granules and undergoes thermal treatment. Preferably, the dust is compacted by briquetting, followed by crushing to granules. Fines are screened off and recycled to mixing. Coarse lumps are recycled to the crusher. In a similar process, binder is mixed in with the dusts, forming agglomerates, which undergo thermal treatment. In either process, the result is screened, fines being returned to mixing.

Abstract: Process for the production of ethylbenzene by alkylation over a silicalite alkylation catalyst with the subsequent transalkylation of diethylbenzene with the alkylation catalyst and conditions selected to retard xylene production and also heavies production. A feedstock containing benzene and ethylene is applied to a multi-stage alkylation reaction zone having a plurality of series-connected catalyst beds containing a pentasil molecular sieve alkylation catalyst which is silicalite of a predominantly monoclinic symmetry having a silica/alumina ratio of at least 275. The feedstock is supplied to the alkylation reaction zone to cause gas-phase ethylation of benzene at a flow rate to provide a space velocity of benzene over the catalyst to produce a xylene concentration in the product of about 600 ppm or less based upon the ethylbenzene content. Periodically the space velocity may be increased to a value which is greater than the space velocity associated with a minimum concentration of diethylbenzene in the alkylation product such that diethylbenzene production is enhanced while minimizing any attendant transalkylation reactions within the alkylation reaction zone. This is accompanied by a relatively low xylene content in the product, specifically no more than 600 ppm based upon the ethylbenzene in the product. The output from the alkylation reactor is applied to an intermediate recovery zone for the separation and recovery of ethylbenzene with the recovery of a polyalkylated aromatic component which is supplied along with benzene to a transalkylation reaction zone where the polyalkylated aromatic fraction is subject to disproportionation to provide a reduced diethylbenzene content and an enhanced ethylbenzene content. A specific monoclinic silicalite alkylation catalyst has a silica/alumina ratio of at least 300 and has a crystal size of less than one micron.
