Abstract: A process and composition for the beneficial utilization of waste materials which contain energetic materials are disclosed. Predetermined quantities of the waste material containing energetic materials are placed in admixture with commercial blasting agents causing the energetic materials to participate in the detonation process thereby utilizing energetic materials which would otherwise enter the waste stream. The waste material, in particulate form, that contains the energetic materials is introduced into the blasting agent when the latter is in a relatively fluid state. The modified blasting agent is suitable for use in the normal manner such as in bulk or packaged form.

Abstract: The invention is concerned with a gas hot water heater intended for installation in a wall and including a combustion chamber from which are guided heating gas tubings within a water-carrying housing. The housing is provided with connections for forward and rearward flow of water and an exhaust gas collecting chamber provided with connections for exhaust gas and condensate discharge. In the practice of the invention, a heating gas tubing passing from top to bottom through the water-carrying flat box-type housing is in the form of at least one pocket extending parallel to a broad rear wall of the housing. A water-cooled combustion chamber, disposed in an upper portion of the housing substantially corresponds, in plan view, to a flat rectangular cross-section of the housing. A burner insert opening of the combustion chamber is provided within or approximately within the plane of a front wall having a width corresponding to, and extending parallel with, a rear wall. This will result in an extremely flat design of the hot water heater involving low manufacturing efforts and permitting an automated manufacture.

Abstract: A method for removing hazardous contaminants such as radon gas and volatile synthetic organic chemicals from domestic water supplies uses a perforated, horizontally-oriented tray which is baffled to define a curved (e.g., serpentine, spiral) liquid flow path. Contaminated water is distributed upon a portion of the tray and flows as directed by the baffles to a downcomer and into a storage tank. Air is blown into the storage tank, which is located below the perforated tray, and up through the perforations. The forced air causes the water flowing across the tray to froth, and evaporates the contaminants out of the frothing water. The forced air, carrying the volatilized contaminants, is then vented outside the home. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Copper laminates (3) which have been provided with a black or brown oxide coating (black or brown oxide finish) and which, in the course of a subsequent process step, are to be incorporated into an electrical multilayer are reduced electrochemically in order to prevent the formation of so-called pink rings. To this end, in a suitable electrolyte, they are connected as the cathode of an electrolysis. The atomic hydrogen formed in the nascent state in the process reduces the copper oxide layer on the metallic regions of the copper laminates (3), either in its entirety or in part, the resistance of the surfaces of the metallic regions of the copper laminate with respect to a subsequent attack by acid being considerably improved as a result. The electrochemical reduction may, if required, be coupled with a chemical reduction or be carried out prior to a chemical reduction. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A movable horizon-to-horizon dish aerial has the dish (2) secured to a rotary sleeve (10, 12) pivotable about an axis (14). Extending along the axis of the sleeve is a cranked lever (22, 24, 26) having one of its ends carrying a jack (34) extending between it and the aerial, and the other operated on by a jack (38) extending between the lever and a relatively-fixed point. The jacks (34, 38) are driven in opposite senses, in unison or sequence, so that the angular movements of the dish are an additive combination of the movements brought about by each jack. The jacks may be mechanical and/or hydraulic, having an effective length which is adjustable over the range needed to ensure that the dish can swing through an arc extending from one horizon to the opposite one. The aerial itself is also pivotable on a fixed support about an axis extending perpendicularly to the main axis of movement, so that the plane of movement of the aerial is itself at an adjustable angle to the horizon.

Abstract: A reduced-friction screw (1) is described. The screw (1) requires less turning torque than a conventional screw to drive it into a workpiece. The shaft (2) of the screw (1) has a reduced-thickness thread (5) that produces less sliding friction than a conventional screw having thread of the same depth and pitch. In addition, the holding ability of the reduced-friction screw (1) is substantially the same as a conventional screw having thread of the same pitch and depth. Another embodiment contains a shaft (2') having a reduced diameter, to further reduce sliding friction. Yet another embodiment contains a segmented, reduced-thickness thread (41) that resists removal and loosening when the workpiece is subject to twisting, vibration, or warping. To prevent loosening of the reduced-friction screw, the bottom of the screw head may contain protrusions (7) to increase the frictional contact of the head (3) with the workpiece. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: Onium salts of taxo-diterpenoid-C<n>, 2-0-aza-arenes are employed as water soluble prodrugs. For example, taxol-2'-methylpyridinium tosylate (MPT) is characterized by an elevated aqueous solubility, rapid activation by serum protein, good stability in most other aqueous solutions, formation of a protein:taxol intermediate and good retension within the circulatory system. The toxicity of the activated form is comparable or greater than underivatized taxol. Furthermore, taxol-2'-MPT can be synthesized by a simple one step reaction between taxol and 2-fluoro-1-MPT. The invention is applicable to taxol and taxol mimetics having hydroxyls that are reactive with onium salts of 2-halogenated-aza-arenes. For example, taxol, C-2 substituted analogs of taxol, and Taxotere each have reactive hydroxyls at the 2' and 7 positions. The invention is also applicable to a wide array of 2-halogenated-aza-arenes.

Abstract: Bed temperature in a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) reactor is controlled by varying a recirculation rate of particles collected by a secondary particle separator back to the CFB reactor. Particle storage means, sized to contain sufficient inventory required for bed inventory/temperature control due to fuel/sorbent variations and/or load changes, stores particles collected by the secondary particle separator. The storage means can be either directly below the secondary particle separator or at a remote location. Particles collected by the secondary particle separator rather than by the primary particle separator are preferred due to their smaller size and lower temperature. A bed temperature control system controls the recirculation rate of these particles back to the reactor. Level sensing devices are provided on the storage means. A solids storage level control system that interacts with the bed temperature control system controls the solids inventory in the storage means via a purge system.

The amount of nitrogen oxides in the hot gases is reduced in the combination of the first and second reducing stages while producing steam in a steam generation boiler system, thus resulting in gases essentially free from nitrogen oxides while eliminating the possibility of NH3 (or other reducing agent) slip in the exhausted flue gases.
