Abstract: The subject of the invention is a multi-layered roadway covering, in particular for roadways whose foundations are cracked, and a method for producing this covering. 
<??>The covering according to the invention, constituted by a bituminous membrane applied to the foundation of the roadway and by a running layer or a connecting layer, is characterised in that it comprises, between the bituminous membrane and the running or connecting layer, at least one layer of cold moulded cladding. 
<??>The method consists in successively applying to the roadway foundation, possibly coated with a surfacing layer: 
 
  - a layer of bituminous binder, 
  - in the cold condition, a layer of a compound containing a bituminous binder and an aggregate, 
  - a running or connecting layer. 
 
<??>These coatings are particularly effective for slowing down the rising through the running layer of cracks forming in the roadway support.

Abstract: An improvement of a combustion furnace for a boiler in which it is possible to improve and uniformize the heat collection ratio of the furnace of the boiler. Moreover, this invention easily controls the temperature of superheated steam while the heating surface area is kept constant without altering the boiler construction and heat balance, and provides a zone temperature control to a boiler. The boiler according to the present invention is provided with a radiant heat transfer portion (15) in which at least one or more heat accumulating type burner systems are disposed in which a pair of burners (2, 3) for suppyling air for combustion and exhausting combustion gas through a heat accumulator (5) are caused to burn in an alternate fashion while combustion gas is discharged through the heat accumulator (5) from one of the burners which is not burning, so that excess heat energy that has not been consumed in the radiation heat transfer portion (15) is recovered when it is exhausted via the heat accumulator (5) of the other burners. In addition, in the boiler of the present invention, a plurality of heat accumulating type burner systems (1) are disposed in a direction in which water for the boiler flows, and the pair of heat accumulating type burners (2, 3) of the respective burner systems (1) are disposed in a direction that intersects the direction in which water for the boiler flows, whereby a temperature zone is formed by controlling combustion for each heat accumulating type burner system (1), thereby making it possible to control the distribution of the furnace heat collection ratio. Furthermore, the boiler of the present invention has the radiation heat transfer portion (15) in which at least one heat accumulating type burner system is provided, and is provided with a superheater (17) in which saturated steam is superheated by extracting a part of combustion gas from the radiation heat transfer portion (15), the combustion gas being exhausted directly out of the combustion chamber without passing through the burners (2, 3).

Abstract: The present invention is a process for the chromatographic separation of a liquid mixture comprising a first sugar component and at least one secondary component chosen from second sugars, organic acids and salts thereof, alcohols, amino acids, and inorganic salts. In the process, the liquid mixture is contacted with a stratum of a porous gel cation-exchange resin and thereafter eluted such that the first sugar component passes through the stratum at a different rate relative to the secondary components of the liquid mixture. The separation results in a first recoverable product stream rich in the first sugar component and at least one secondary product stream rich in the secondary components. The porous gel cation-exchange resin is prepared by polymerization of at least one monovinylidene monomer with a cross-linking monomer in the presence of an inert diluent. The use of such porous gel resins in the process increases kinetics, improves yields of desired sugar components, and results in a more efficient separation process. The invention is particularly applicable to separation of glucose from fructose in the preparation of high fructose corn syrup.

Abstract: A purse string suturing instrument is provided for quickly and effectively forming a purse string suture in tubular tissue through relatively small cannulas placed in the body. The instrument includes a pair of elongated jaws (12,14), each having a row of spaced-apart uniform-size teeth (16,18). The jaws (12,14) are hinged together at one end to clamp the tubular tissue therebetween. The two rows of teeth (16,18) are offset with respect to each other so that they mesh when the jaws (12,14) are closed. The jaws (12,14) are inserted through a cannula and positioned to close around the tissue to be sutured. The rows of teeth (16,18) then bend the tissue between them into a wavelike configuration. A pair of needles (56), the ends of each being connected to a single length of suture, is then inserted through passageways provided through the teeth (16,18). An encircling series of stitches are thus formed in the wall of the tubular tissue to create a purse string suture. The needles (56) and the suturing instrument are then withdrawn through the cannula. The tubular tissue can be snugly fitted over an anastomosis ring or the like by drawing and tying the purse string suture.

Abstract: The NOx content in a flow of flue gas is reduced by passing the flue gas through a first treatment zone and a second treatment zone. A nitrogeneous treatment agent is introduced into the first treatment zone for the selective non-catalytic reduction of part of the NOx, and the flue gas is thereafter passed through the second treatment zone which includes a catalyst for further selective catalytic reduction of the NOx. Optionally, a second nitrogeneous treatment agent is added to the flue gas in the second treatment zone. The quantity of NOx in the flue gas is detected intermediate the first and second treatment zones and, optionally, after the flue gas has left the second treatment zone. The quantity of ammonia in the flue gas exiting from the second treatment zone is also detected. The amounts of the treatment agents added to the flue gas are controlled responsive to the variations and absolute levels determined by these measurements. <IMAGE>
