Abstract: A process for the direct reduction of iron ore when the external source of reductants is one or both of coke oven gas (COG) and basic oxygen furnace gas (BOFG). Carbon dioxide is removed from a mixture of shaft: furnace off gas, obtained from a conventional direct reduction shaft: furnace, and BOFG. This C02 lean gas is mixed with clean COG, humidified, and heated in an indirect heater. Oxygen is injected into the heated reducing gas. This hot reducing gas flows to the direct reduction shaft furnace for use. The spent hot reducing gas exits the direct reduction shaft furnace as shaft furnace off gas, produces steam in a waste heat boiler, cleaned in a cooler scrubber, compressed, and recycled to join fresh BOFG. A portion of the shaft furnace off gas is sent to the heater burners.

Title: Separator, separating device with such a separator, and vacuum cleaner, especially wet vacuum cleaner, with such a separator or such a separating device
Inventor: ROTH PAUL
IPC: B01D50/00
Filed: 2014-03-20
Abstract: The separator has a cover part from which webs are projecting which are positioned along the circumference of the cover part at a spacing one behind the other with formation of through openings. At least some of the webs are without connection with each other at the end that is facing away from the cover part. The webs are designed transversely to the longitudinal direction to be elastically yielding. The webs are positioned in their mounting position with radial pretension on a spider which is fixedly seated on the motor shaft of the vacuum cleaner. Due to centrifugal forces occurring in operation of the vacuum cleaner as a result of the high rotary speed of the motor shaft, the webs of the separator are positioned with their free ends under high force on the spider. The separator is thus reliably entrained by the spider by friction.
