Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant la préparation d'un catalyseur permettant de conduire des réactions d'hydrogénation du monoxyde de carbone, en particulier des réactions de Fischer-Tropsch. La première étape de ce procédé comprend l'activation ou la réactivation d'un catalyseur désactivé, ou la préparation et l'activation d'un nouveau catalyseur. Dans ce dernier cas, le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : on commence par mettre en contact, au cours d'une ou de plusieurs étapes, un support inorganique réfractaire en particules, sous forme de poudre ou préformé, avec un liquide ou une solution dans laquelle est dispersé ou dissout un composé ou un sel d'un ou de plusieurs métaux à activité catalytique, afin d'imprégner le support ou la poudre ou de déposer le ou les métaux sur ces derniers. Après chaque étape d'imprégnation, on calcine le support imprégné par le métal ou les métaux afin de former des oxydes du ou des métaux déposés. On traite ensuite le précurseur de catalyseur calciné avec une solution contenant un composé chélateur, de préférence un composé chélateur poly ou multicoordinant, afin de former un complexe avec les oxydes de métal ou de métaux, et d'extraire et d'éliminer une partie de ceux-ci. On active le catalyseur par réduction, ce qui peut être réalisé par contact avec de l'hydrogène. Lors de l'activation ou de la réactivation d'un catalyseur désactivé, on commence par traiter le catalyseur avec le composé chélateur de manière extraire une portion des oxydes métalliques, puis on soumet le catalyseur à une réduction. Dans tous les cas, le catalyseur activé ou réactivé présente une activité élevée ou une sélectivité importante envers C¿5?+, ou à la fois une activité élevée et une sélectivité envers C¿5?+ lors des réactions d'hydrogénation du monoxyde de carbone, assurant ainsi un rendement amélioré du processus.

Title: Method and device for concentrating and stabilizing conjugated estrogens from mares' urine
Inventor: AHNSORGE JURGEN
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 2001-07-26
Granted: 2011-09-20
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for concentrating and stabilising conjugated oestrogens from the urine of pregnant mares on solid supports in order to obtain a suitable starting material for producing pharmaceuticals that contain the natural mixture of these conjugated oestrogens as the active component. The inventive device is characterised by its suitability for practical, decentralised concentration and stabilisation of mixtures of conjugated oestrogens (CE) contained in the urine (PMU) of pregnant mares on a solid support (= adsorbent), especially in the proximity of the stable or field, in a column or a cartridge. The adsorber columns can be filled directly at the site of urine collection with the device. As a result, it is no longer necessary to transport large quantities of urine liquid daily to a central processing point. The filling process can take place continuously over a longer period of up to several weeks, until the adsorber column or cartridge is saturated. The leftover urine that runs off remains at the site, where suitable devices for disposal are already available. Only the filled column or cartridge is transported and the transport can take place at longer intervals and take longer, e.g., up to a few weeks. The excellent stability of the CE on the adsorber ensures that there is no risk of decomposition.

Title: Jigging machine
Inventor: ERMEKOVA GULNAR
IPC: B03B5/16
Filed: 2000-07-27
Granted: 2007-10-02
Abstract: A jigger for the processing of minerals such as coal, consisting of a traveling upper trough and a travelling lower piston, the upper through being equipped with a sieve and closed from below by a continuous flexible membrane, the lower piston interrelating with the diaphragm of the upper troughto give vertical pulsations to the water therein. The trough and piston are linked to each other via double-arm levers, in turn hinged to supports. The double-arm levers together with the upper trough and lower piston form a system of hinged parallelograms, providing uniform distribution of pulsations along the whole capacity of the upper trough that produces conditions for the intensification of the jigging process. Besides this intensification, decreasing of energy-consumption and simplicity of design are achieved. A laboratory sample was made and its testing showed good technological results and confirmed the reliability of a unit simple in manufacturing, operating and maintenance.
