Abstract: This invention relates to the reduction of oxidized sulfur compound SOX emissions produced during combustion of sulfur (S)-containing combustible compounds. More particularly, this invention provides a method for reducing such emissions wherein the combustible compound is mixed with an admixture of a water soluble and a water insoluble sulfur sorbent. Use of such admixtures, remarkably, produces a reduction in the SOX level far greater than would be expected based on the activity of each sorbent alone. Extremely viscous hydrocarbons can be burned as preatomized fuels, which can also be mixed with sorbent admixtures. Clean burning fuels comprising sulfur-containing combustible compounds and sorbent admixtures are also provided.

Abstract: Process for the introduction of functional or functionalizable substituents para to the amino group in 2-aminophenols and 3-aminophenols. The process proceeds in one step, with substitution occurring selectively at the position para to the amino group. Consequently, the reaction is surprisingly straightforward, with very little or no contamination by isomeric by-products. The process comprises reaction of (a) an aminophenol having an open para position to the amino function, with (b) an unhindered non-enolizble aldehyde, and (c) a thiol or sulfinic acid which acts as a nucleophile. In preferred embodiments, the process is conducted at a temperature of from about 50 DEG  C. to about 100 DEG  C., and in the presence of a polar solvent. The reaction is promoted by an acid having sufficient acidity to protonate the amino group of the aminophenol. Preferably, the acid promoter is a mineral acid, and it is present in an amount at least substantially equivalent to the amount of aminophenol reactant. The promoter can be added as a salt of the aminophenol.

Abstract: 1. Method for the approximate idealisation of a fuel-independent cyclic process for heat engines. 2.1 Examples of energy conversions in heat engines in practice show that there are still some aspects which require improvement (as regards efficiency  - crude oil supplies - pollutant-rich exhaust gases and noise - pollution of the environment). 2.2 The principal features of an improvement are:     - increase in the compression ratio (without knocking) - realisation of known ideal processes (in this case isochoric combustion in separate chambers)   - free selection of fuel (genuine multi-fuel engine) - combustion at a high temperature level (glow space, good ignition, operational reliability, association of H2O) - increase in power due to an increase in engine speed, principally in diesel engines (ignition delay without any effect) - economy under full load, part load and when idling (air cell insert - good starting conditions as well).   2.3 The arrangement shown provides an increase in efficiency particularly in fuel-injected engines without throttling and maximum compression. The reintroduction of simple two-stroke engines in certain sectors must surely make the above points possible.  (No air/fuel mixture scavenging) <IMAGE>

The boiler system comprises a processor which includes an air heat pump (5) which functions to cool the system flue gases by condensation. A first fan (10) generates a first circulation (C1) of boiler room air, via the air heat pump (5), this circulation of air also passing through a heat exchanger (4) where heat exchange takes place with the flue gases. A second air circulation (C2) is generated with the aid of a flue-gas fan (7) which removes flue gases from the boiler by suction, thereby generating a subpressure in the boiler room so that fresh air will be drawn in from the ambient surroundings, this air passing through the heat exchanger (4). A lower pressure is maintained on that side of the heat exchanger (4) on which the air/flue gas mixture (C2) flows into the heat exchanger, whereas a higher pressure is maintained on the other side of the heat exchanger (4) on which the air/flue gas mixture (C 2) flows into the heat exchanger (4) on which the cooling boiler-room air circulates (C1). This will ensure that flue gases will always flow out to the free atmosphere, via the heat exchanger (4). The exhaust air/flue gas mixture is caused to pass a cooling device (21) and thereby pre-cooled prior to passing through the heat exchanger in said second circulation.

The bar includes a thick-walled metallic tube having in the central portion a wall thickness and outside diameter in a ratio amounting to at least 1/10. This tube has an outside wall portion bent with a restricted thinning, ranging from about 5 to 15%. The bent portions are bent with an average bending radius of curvature in the range from about 1.4 to 2.1 times the outside diameter of the tube. Apparatus and methods can manufacture stabilizer bars or similar tubular metallic products of the foregoing type. For example, a method includes the steps of fitting to a bending arm one end of the thick-walled metallic tube. An inside wall portion of the tube has a radial spacing from a bending center of curvature, no greater than the length of the bending arm. The tube and the heating zone move relatively, with the heating zone advancing along the tube. Circular movement of the bending arm is resisted with a force sufficient to displace the flexure plane (separating compression zone from tension zone) radially outward from the center of curvature and to thin the outside wall of the metallic tube by about 5 to 15%. Resistance of the circular movement can be preformed with a gear and gear rack.
