Patent GB-697906-A (GB)
Title: Process for the production of formaldehyde
IPC: C07C45/80
Filed: 1950-01-04
Abstract: Formaldehyde is produced by a process comprising vapour phase partial oxidation of a hydrocarbon containing more than one carbon atom or a hydrocarbon mixture at an elevated temperature, characterized by rapid cooling of the products by contact with aqueous formaldehyde, followed by scrubbing the uncondensed products with water.  The aqueous formaldehyde may be circulated between the quenching zone and a cooler, a portion withdrawn as product, and the dilute aqueous formaldehyde formed in the scrubbing zone added to the circulating solution in volume substantially equal to the circulating solution withdrawn as product.  The circulating solution may be cooled to 100-150 DEG  F. and reheated in the quenching zone to 200 DEG  F. Fresh water may be supplied to the scrubbing zone at 60-120 DEG  F. In an apparatus described, the gaseous oxidation products enter near the bottom of a column, and ascend against a flow of aqueous formaldehyde down a series of alternate circular and annular trays, solution being continuously withdrawn from the bottom of the vessel and, after cooling and the removal of a portion as product, recirculated to the top tray of the series.  The uncondensed gases then pass up through a series of bubble-cap trays in the same vessel, the top tray of this series being supplied with water at the same rate as formaldehyde solution is withdrawn from the series below.

Patent GB-418788-A (GB)
Title: Improved process of producing a soluble phosphate fertilizer
IPC: C05B13/02
Filed: 1934-01-10
Abstract: Phosphates are rendered soluble by heating them in the presence of silica and steam or water vapour to temperatures above that at which b -tricalcium phosphate is converted in a -tricalcium phosphate, say to 1300--1600 DEG  C.  It is stated that when the apatite structure of the phosphate is destroyed the tricalcium phosphate may be present in either the a -modification which is readily soluble, or in the b -modification which is more difficultly soluble, and that the b -modification passes into the a -modification at about 1180 DEG  C. The process may also be carried out under reducing conditions, and hydrogen-containing gases may be present in such amount as to provide by their combustion the necessary steam.  The heat treatment may take place in a shaft furnace or a rotary kiln, and be effected initially in the absence of steam.  Instead of adding silica to the phosphate to be treated phosphorites rich in silica may be used.  To prevent reconversion of the a - to the b -modification, the heated product is cooled rapidly, as by quenching.  Examples are given showing (1) the beneficial influence during the heat treatment of the presence of silica, hydrogen, and water vapour, (2) the requisite amount of silica needed, and (3) the benefit of the quenching step.

IPC: C23C14/32
Filed: 1980-01-08
Abstract: PURPOSE:To produce a vacuum-deposited film free of coarse grains by a method wherein a substrate is placed at the side of flight space for vapor particles of a substance in such a manner as to be faced toward the center of the space, and an electric or magnetic field is generated in the space so as to deflect the flying direction of the vapor particles toward the substrate. CONSTITUTION:The substance 3 evaporated by heating a vapor source 4 flying upward, is ionized by glow discharge, for instance, and reaches the flight space 5. At the side of the flight space 5 is placed the substrate 6 in such a manner as to be faced inwards, with a other electrode 7 provided opposite to the substrate 6. For example, the substrate 6 is connected to the negative electrode of a power source 8, generating the electric field in the space 5. Accordingly, the particles P of the evaporated substance 3 are deflected by the field and are deposited on the substrate 6 having a negative potential. On the other hand, droplets S of molten substance from the vapor source 4 is not charged and the large mass of the droplets S prevents them from being deflected, so that the droplets do not reach the substrate 6. The magnetic field may be generated in the flight space 5, singly or together with the electric field.
