Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the pasteurisation of drinks, in particular beer, by thermal treatment, in which before being filled into its containers a flow volume of the product is heated above a pasteurisation temperature and then cooled again, such that immediately after a heating phase (30) which lasts until a previously calculated maximum temperature (33) has been reached, the cooling phase (34) with decreasing product temperatures is commenced. In the method according to the invention there is no heat holding period during which the temperature is held constant. The method enables a high product temperature to be reached without exceeding the limits specified for the pasteurisation units applied.

Abstract: A process and apparatus, including a separate coating head, for coating a strip article with a coating material. The process involves coating a strip article with a film of coating material by passing the strip article through a coating apparatus having at least one floating coating head provided with a coating face facing and extending laterally across a surface of the strip article to be coated. The coating head exudes a coating material and floats on the coating material as it meters the coating to a film of the desired thickness. The coating face of the coating head has a preferred coating profile between its opposite ends, and wherein distortions of the preferred coating profile during coating of said strip article are substantially prevented by modifying heat flux to or from selected parts of the coating head to compensate for distortions caused by differences of temperature within the coating head. The apparatus provides means of modifying heat flux to prevent such distortions of the coating profile. A removable coating head also includes such means of modifying the heat flux.

Abstract: Techniques for adjusting the bias current of an active circuit in a transmitter based on the signal gain of the transmitter. The bias current affects various performances including linearity, noise figure, frequency response, and others. The amount of bias current that provides the required level of performance is dependent on the power level, which can be inferred from the gain control signals used to control the variable gain elements in the transmit signal path. Initially, at least one gain control signal for at least one variable gain element in the transmit signal path is received, with each gain control signal being indicative of an amplitude of a signal to be operated on by the active circuit. The bias current of the active circuit is then adjusted in accordance with the received gain control signal(s). To ensure proper circuit performance, the bias current can be limited to within a range defined by an upper value Imax and a lower value Imin can be set to a percentage of Imax. Imax and Imin can be generated by programmable current sources, and can also be compensated for temperature and power supply variations.
