Abstract: The cladding consists of an outer layer (2) of polyester which is polymerised at high pressure, is rot-proof and self-cleaning, and an inner layer (3) of expanded polystyrene which is stuck to the back of the outer layer. The upper and lower edges of the outer layer are shaped so that each successive row engages with the one below it, i.e. by having a recessed upper edge (8) which receives the offset lower edge (9) of the next row to ensure that the outer surface is flat, regardless of faults in the support. The upper edge of the outer layer is used to receive fixings (13) which are concealed by the next row. The channel also has water drainage channels and outlets. The polyester used for the outer layer of the cladding is pref. made from 18 - 23% polyester resin. 7-10% glass fibres and 60-70% mineral filling, with colouring or other additive to ease separation from the mould. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for making a closed-cell, alkenyl aromatic polymer foam structure having enlarged cell size. In the process, an alkenyl aromatic polymer material is heated to form a melt polymer material; a non-waxy cell size enlarging agent is incorporated into the melt polymer material; a blowing agent is incorporated into the melt polymer material at an elevated pressure to form a foamable gel; and the foamable gel is then expanded in a zone of lower pressure to form the foam structure. The enlarging agent is present in an amount sufficient to enlarge the stabilized cell size of the formed foam structure by 20 percent or more over a corresponding foam structure made without the enlarging agent. Further, the enlarging agent is incorporated in a quantity such that the formed foam structure has physical properties similar to the corresponding foam structure. Further, disclosed is a foam structure corresponding to the above.

Abstract: On reception, a filtered and amplified reception signal (X) coupled from the current network, reaches a digital multiplier (5) after digital to analog conversion. The second input of the multiplier has a reference signal (Y) from a sample value memory (24) addressed by a cyclic address counter to fixed base length (20). Exactly four reference values (Y), corresponding to the in-phase and quadrature sample values of each L and H signal form, are allocated to each X value. The resulting products are accumulated in a ring structure of a summer (6), four registers (7,8,9,10) and a switch (11). After one signal form cycle, the in-phase components of the H and L bit are accumulated in two registers (9,10) and the quadrature components are accumulated in the other registers (7,8). By undoing the ring structure, the switch (11) feeds the four results from the registers (7-10) to a decision unit including a switch (13), a summer (14) and two registers (15,16).

Abstract: A switched mode power supply is provided which combines voltage regulation and power factor correction in a single converter stage. The power supply comprises a bridge rectifier (39) feeding a double rectified voltage sine wave to a flyback converter comprising input and output circuits (40, 41) connected by an energy-storing transformer (42). The input circuit (40) comprises an energy-storing inductor (43), a switching device (44) connected in series with the inductor across the output of the bridge rectifier, a control arrangement (60-71) for controlling the cyclic turning on and off of the switching device (44), and a coupling capacitor (45) connected in series with the primary winding (46) of the transformer across the switching device. The control arrangement comprises switch-on timing means (60-65) for turning on the switching device upon a turn-on condition being reached in which the inductor (43) and transformer (42) have stored energy levels such that the inductor and transformer are equally balanced to charge one another, and on-time control means (65-71) for maintaining the switching device (44) on for a period dependent on the desired value of said regulated dc output voltage. In this manner, the converter input current is made proportional to the input voltage giving the desired high power factor. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Valley creases (3) are formed on a surface of a stock material (2) which comprises thin paper. The surface of the stock material (2) is divided by the valley creases (3) into a bottom surface portion (4), which corresponds to a bottom surface portion of a piece of cake, and a side wall (5) which adjoins the bottom surface portion (4). The side wall (5) is formed on its surface with valley creases (6) and mountain creases (7). The valley creases (3, 6) and mountain creases (7) make a container body (1) into a shape of a cup. The respective creases (6, 7) produce a plurality of divided creased pieces (8, 9, 10). The creased pieces (8, 9, 10) are formed with step portions (13) which intersect the valley creases (6) and the mountain creases (7) in a stepwise manner. When a restoring force of the stock material (2) acts on the valley creases (6) and the mountain creases (7), the respective creases (6, 7) tend to unfold but the step portions (13) resist to prevent unfolding.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of mixed silica-zirconia sols and mixed oxides in spherical form. This process consists in mixing a silicon alkoxide with a solution of an inorganic zirconium salt in polyols with a low molecular weight and subjecting the intermediate thus formed to acid hydrolysis in a water medium. The sols thus prepared enable the production, by an emulsification and gelation process in organic mediums, of mixed oxides in spherical form characterized by a homogeneous structure, a surface area ≥ 350 m<2>/g and a specific pore volume ≥ 0.5 cm<3>/g. The above mixed oxides can be applied as catalysts or carriers for catalysts.

Abstract: A process and assembly treat water which has been used in a car wash to fit it for re-use. Used water is discharged to a first settlement tank (4), from which water is then drawn and transferred to a second settlement tank (4'). Water from the second settlement tank is than transferred, via a buffer tank if needed, to the car wash and used in the operation. The novelty is that: (a) water is continually drawn from the first settlement tank and used in a non-contact (water jets) (13, 14) cleaning part of the car wash process; (b) water from the second settlement tank is used in conjunction with the contact (brush) (16) cleaning part of the process. The settlement tanks are so-called 'Dortmund' basins in which there is both an upwards and downwards flow of water.

Abstract: A system and method for the reduction of NOx in a flue gas are disclosed. A P4 in water liquid/liquid emulsion is injected into a flue gas having a temperature of about 180 DEG  C. to about 280 DEG  C. to induce phosphorus-accelerated oxidation of the NO in the flue gas. NO2 and phosphorus oxides are subsequently removed from the flue gas stream at a location sufficiently downstream of the injection site that the oxidation of NO in the flue gas is substantially complete prior to the removal of NO2. This significantly improves the NOx recovery rate of the present system and method over those of the prior art. The system can be retrofitted to the waste gas stream of any stationary combustion source regardless of the fuel burned. The system is advantageously used in connection with a wet scrubber for the removal of NO2 and other water soluble flue gas components. Injection of the emulsion results in the creation of ozone by means of the controlled oxidation of white phosphorus. The ozone reacts with nitrogen oxide (NO), which generally accounts for 90% of flue gas NOx, to produce nitrogen dioxide (NO2). The reaction products (NO2 and the P4O10,) can be removed from the flue gas together with SO2 and particulates in the wet scrubber wherein they are efficiently transferred from the gaseous phase to the buffered scrubbing liquid. In the scrubber, the temperature gradient is preferably set through the dew point, so that it recovers both latent as well as sensible heat energy from the flue gas which energy can be sold to commercial or residential consumers to recover at least a part of the capital costs (purchase and operation) associated with the system.
