Abstract: Improved spray drying apparati, and methods of use thereof, have been developed. The spray drying equipment includes a primary drying chamber (20) and a secondary drying apparatus (10) which includes tubing having a length sufficient to increase the contact time between the drying gas and the droplets/particles to dry the particles to the extent desired, at a drying rate and temperature which would be too low to provide adequate drying witho ut the secondary drying apparatus. The secondary drying apparatus increases the drying efficiency of the spray dryer system without increasing the drying rate, while minimizing loss in yield. The ratio of the length of tubing to t he length of the primary drying chamber is at least 2:1. The tubing diameter is substantially smaller than the diameter of the primary drying chamber, such that the particles move at higher velocity through the tubing to minimize product losses. The ratio of the cross-sectional area of the primary drying chamber to the cross-sectional area of the tubing most preferably is about 16:1. The tubing preferably is in a compact coil design, which can more easi ly be transported and which has minimum space requirements, and may optionally include a jacket to control the temperature of the secondary drying process. A preferred application for the spray drying process and equipment is in the production of microparticles, between about 1 and 200 .mu.m in diameter, whi ch can be used to deliver therapeutic and diagnostic agents.

Abstract: The circumferential edge portion of a ductile rotating body containing abrasive grains is used to polish the surface of a ceramic substrate. The angle 8 formed between the polished direction D0 of the ceramic substrate and the rotating direction D1 of the rotating body is set in the range from 10° to 80° for the polishing step.  Alternatively, the polishing process is divided into at least two steps, and the average grain size of abrasive grains is reduced stepwise in the successive steps of the polishing process. According to this method, the surface of a large-area and thin ceramic substrate can be polished without damage, and a smooth polished ceramic surface can be provided. This method is particularly suitable for polishing a ceramic substrate having a thickness of at most 2.0 mm, and the resulting polished ceramic substrate is suitable for a ceramic heater in a thermal fixation device for fixing a toner image.

Abstract: In a method for generating a scalable data stream, when a block (11) of output data of a first encoder is present, this block of output data is written into the scalable data stream. If output data (0) of a second encoder is present for a preceding period of time, this output data for the preceding section is written in transmission direction behind the block (11) of output data of the first encoder into the data stream. When the output data (1) of the scalable encoder for the current section is present, the output data of the second encoder is written into the bit stream subsequent to the output data of the first encoder. A determining data block (200) is generated and written into the bit stream delayed by a period of time (250) which corresponds to the size of the bit savings bank of the second encoder. Finally, buffer information (260) is written into the bit stream, which indicates, where the beginning of the output data of the second encoder for the current section regarding the determining data block is, wherein the buffer information (260) corresponds to the bit savings bank level. Thus, it is possible to simply signalize a bit savings bank in a scalable data stream. The maximum size of the bit savings bank may further be adjusted depending on the intended decoder delay and be communicated to a decoder by positioning the determining data block in the scalable data stream without an effort of additional bits in order to reduce the initial delay of the decoder.
