Title: Improvements relating to catalytic reforming
IPC: B01J23/96
Filed: 1958-01-07
Abstract: A Pt catalyst which requires conventional regeneration is rehalogenated by introducing an organic halide into an inert gas (the term "inert gas" excludes both oxygen- and hydrogen-containing gases), e.g. N2 or flue gas, used as a purge gas in connection with regeneration, and passing the inert gas through the catalyst (before or after regeneration) at a temperature (preferably 700-1000 DEG F.) sufficient to decompose the organic halide and introduce halogen into the catalyst, the halogen being preferably fluorine, chlorine or both.  It is preferred to (a) inject the halide into the inert gas at a point just before its entry into the reactor; (b) use not more than 1 gm. halide per 100 litres inert gas and thus introduce 0.1-3% halogen by weight of total catalyst stable at 900 DEG C.  Halides specified are tert-butyl fluoride and chloride: benzotrifluoride and dichlorodifluoromethane.  Specification 840,269 is referred to.

Title: Improvements in and relating to the manufacture of sheet rubber
IPC: C08K3/00
Filed: 1931-01-09
Abstract: Vulcanized rubber sheet for interior linings, floor coverings, pavings &c., having low specific gravity, high rigidity and resistance to cracking and creeping, is made from a rubber mixing containing a proportion of light vegetable filler greater by weight than the rubber and a much smaller proportion of mineral filler including zinc oxide.  Preferably the proportions by weight are substantially 120 parts of rubber, 150-260 parts of vegetable light filler and 24-80 parts of mineral filler of which 10-40 parts are zinc oxide.  The rubber may be wholly or in part rubber which has been rendered intrinsically soft by heat treatment under oxidizing conditions as described in Specification 368,902. Suitable light fillers are cork, wood, hemp, jute and cotton in a suitable state of subdivision.  The vulcanization may be carried out in two or more stages, for example by submitting the sheet to a preliminary short pressing in a hot press and then maintaining the sheet under pressure at a lower temperature, e.g. 80-90 DEG  F., until it has been vulcanized to the degree required, or, as described in Specification 370,578, by effecting a partial curing of the sheet in unconfined condition and then completing the vulcanization in a hot press. After vulcanization, the sheet may be allowed to cool under pressure, e.g. by continuously passing the sheet in lengths from the hot press to a cold press, by stacking separate lengths between plates in a subsidiary press, by cooling in the vulcanizing press itself, or, when the material has been vulcanized on a drum, by letting it cool in its wrappings. As an example, a suitable mix comprises 120 parts by weight of pale cr<\>zepe rubber softened as in 368,902, 260 parts of ground cork, 30 parts of Venetian red, 30 parts of zinc oxide, 6 parts of sulphur and 1 part of piperidine-piperidyldithiocarbamate. Other examples are given.

Title: System for subband coding of a digital audio signal
Inventor: VELDHUIS RAYMOND NICOLAAS JOHAN
IPC: G11B20/10
Filed: 1994-08-25
Abstract: A system for subband coding of a digital audio signal x(k) includes in the coder (1) a filter bank (3) for splitting the audio signal band, with sampling rate reduction, into subbands (p = 1, ....P) of approximately critical bandwidth and in the decoder (2) a filter bank (5) for merging these subbands, with sampling rate increase. For each subband (p) the coder (1) comprises a detector (7(p)) for determining a parameter G(p;m) representative of the signal level in a block (p;m) of M samples of the subband signal xp(k) as well as a quantizer (8(p)) for adaptively block quantizing this subband signal in response to parameter G(p;m), and the decoder (2) comprises a dequantizer (9(p)) for adaptively block dequantizing the quantized subband signal sp(k)in response to parameter G(p;m). The quantizing characteristics are related to the noise-masking curve of the human auditory system, owing to which a high-quality of the replica x/< ANd >(k) of audio signal x(k) is attained with an average number of approximately 2.5 bits per sample for representing the output signals of the coder (1). The occasional audibility of quantizing noise in this replica x/< ANd >(k) is reduced effectively in that the coder (1) and decoder (2) contain identical bit allocation means (23, 24) responsive to a set of parameters G(p;m) for the higher group of subbands (pim</=p</=P) within an allocation window (Fig. 5) for allocating a number of B(p;m) bits per sample from a fixed predetermined number of B bits for this allocation window to the quantizer (8(p)) and the dequantizer (9(p)) for the block (p;m) of subband signal xp(k) and sp(k), respectively.

Title: Magnetostatic degasing and deironing unit, mainly in midget water works
Inventor: PALFFY ENDRE
IPC: C02F1/24
Filed: 1991-03-08
Abstract: To treat water contg. iron, manganese and gases, mainly for small scale installations, raw water is passed through in an oxidiser tower in which it is sprayed onto a cup by gravity. Gas is sepd. and a countercurrent flow of air, supplied by a fan, supplies oxygen to oxidise the iron in the water. The free gas is discharged through the roof. Iron hydroxide in the water is then passed from the de-sander pit into the separator-settler space where it coagulates under the influence of permanent magnets. The iron then hydroxide settles between the concrete blocks in which magnets are located and the sludge is periodically pumped out. Water is filtered through a wall made up of elements using pebbles whereby the clarified water is passed to a collector pit, sterilised and pumped into the supply network. - Other solutions are also proposed for treatment plants with outputs of less than 50 m3/day.
