Title: Production of tetrahydrofuran
Inventor: HARRISON G
IPC: C07C43/162
Filed: 1980-04-10
Abstract: Tetrahydrofuran is produced by converting allyl alcohol to an allyl t-alkyl or -cycloalkyl ether of the general formula:   <IMAGE> (III) wherein R1 and R2 each, independently of the other, represent a C1 to C4 alkyl radical, and R3 and R4 each, independently of the other, represent a hydrogen atom or a C1 to C3 alkyl radical, or wherein R1 represents a C1 to C4 alkyl radical, R2 and R3 together with the carbon atoms to which they are attached form a 5-membered or 6-membered cycloaliphatic ring, and R4 represents a hydrogen atom or a C1 to C3 alkyl radical, followed by reacting resulting compound of formula (III) under hydroformylation conditions with carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of a hydroformylation catalyst to form a corresponding aldehyde-ether of the general formula:    <IMAGE> (I) reducing resulting aldehyde-ether of the general formula (I) a corresponding hydroxy-ether of the general formula:   <IMAGE> (II) and cleaving resulting hydroxy-ether of the general formula (II) under dehydrating conditions to produce tetrahydrofuran. Typically R1 and R2 each represent a methyl group while R3 and R4 each represent a hydrogen atom.

Patent ZA-839039-B (ZA)
Title: Method of mass analyzing a sample by use of a quadrupole ion trap
Inventor: STAFFORD GEORGE CATERINE
IPC: G01N27/62
Filed: 1983-12-05
Abstract: In a quadrupole ion store or ion trap type mass spectometer, significantly improved mass selection is achieved by simultaneously trapping ions within the mass range of interest and then scanning the applied RF and DC voltages or the frequency  omega  to sequentially render unstable trapped ions of consecutive specific masses. These are passed out through apertures in an end cap to a high gain electron multiplier to provide a signal indicative of the ion mass. Sensitivity and mass resolution is also enhanced by operating the ion trap at a relatively high pressure in the range 1x10-1 to 1x10-5 torr. The presence of collision gas molecules, such as helium, improves sensitivity and mass resolution. In addition, the structure itself is built of stacked units, sealed by O-rings, which are easily disassembled for cleaning.

Abstract: In a vibratory screening apparatus, a withdrawable lower fine mesh screen assembly (17) has a screen unit (19) releasably mounted on a grid/frame structure (20). The screen unit (19) has a sheet (21) of mesh material bonded to a grid or lattice (22) of a yieldable material such as a hard rubber, and this lattice (22) and the edges of the mesh (21) are also fixed to relatively rigid side members (23) which are mutually free each from the others. In the structure (20), a rigid grid of support bars (26) supports the lattice (22) with a sliding contact interface, and a frame (28) incorporates pneumatically actuated tensioners (30) and clamps (34A, 34B) respectively for tensioning/locking the screen unit (19) and coupling the screen assembly to the vibratory structure. The tension in the screen unit (19) is adjustable whilst on the structure (20) by virtue of the yieldability of the lattice (22) and its sliding contact interface with the support bars (26). Away from the screen assembly, the screen unit (19) is relaxed and less vulnerable to damage or deterioration of tensioning quality.
