Abstract: The invention concerns a vehicle for discharging fresh sewage sludge material or other organic fertilizers onto the ground, in particular onto areas used for agricultural purposes. The vehicle comprises means (3) for holding the fresh sewage sludge material (2), means (4) for discharging this material out of the means (3) onto the ground, and means (5) for controlling the amount of fresh sewage sludge material to be discharged as a function of the time or the speed of the vehicle (1). Means (6) for measuring the weight of the fresh sewage sludge material (2), means (7) for measuring the moisture content thereof, and means (8) for calculating a correction value for the amount of fresh sewage sludge material (2) to be discharged enable better use to be made of the predetermined amount of fertilizer. A corresponding method improves the discharge process by controlling the amount of material (2) to be discharged onto the ground as a function of the speed of the vehicle (1), measuring the weight of the fresh sewage sludge material (2), measuring the moisture content thereof, calculating a correction value for the amount of material (2) to be discharged, and controlling the amount to be discharged as a function of the correction value. This method is particularly advantageous because it provides calibration of the correction value in order to control the amount of fresh sewage sludge material (2) to be discharged onto the ground through a calibration run.

Abstract: A three layer headbox for producing a multilayer fiber web. The headbox has top and bottom walls inclined toward each other toward the outlet of the headbox. Top and a bottom separating blades in the headbox, the top blade defining a first chamber toward the top wall, the bottom blade being below defining a second chamber between the blades and also defining a third chamber between the bottom blade and the bottom wall. A respective pulp inlet to each of the three chambers. One of the top and bottom blades being hingedly supported at its upstream end to be adjustable in position for affecting the speed of pulp suspension in respective layers in the chambers affected by the orientation of the blade. The pulp suspension layers passing through a headbox are delivered to a paper machine forming section wire and the three streams from the headbox are combined directly before or upon impingement on the wire. Various velocities of the pulp suspension in each of the layers are obtainable and relatively adjustable with reference to each other.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for making plastic tubes, whereby a tube blank (Te) brought to a temperature close to molecular orientation temperature is subjected to a bi-axial drawing, by radial expansion of the tube blank inside a forming shaft (2), with formation of a contraction cavity at one end of the tube, by controlled displacement of this contraction cavity to the other end of the tube, and by longitudinal drawing. The radial expansion is carried out in at least two phases, viz. a first phase during which the tube blank (Te) is inflated to an intermediate diameter (Di) determined by a double-walled envelope (21), introduced into the forming shaft (2), with circulation of a hot fluid between the two walls of the envelope (21), and then the envelope is gradually removed from the forming shaft (2) to enable, during a second phase, the radial expansion of the plastic tube up to an internal diameter of the forming shaft (2), and its longitudinal drawing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for generating power and/or heat in a combustion process having a fuel combusted with an oxygen-containing gaseous mixture as an oxidant supplied from a mixed conducting membrane capable of separating oxygen from oxygen-containing gaseous mixtures at elevated temperatures. The oxygen is picked up from the permeate side of the membrane by means of a sweep gas. The sweep gas can be obtained from at least one combustion process upstream the membrane. The sweep gas can be formed by mixing a recycled part of the exhaust gas containing oxygen and fuel which are passed over a catalytic or non-catalytic burner or combuster. The process produces a resultant exhaust gas with a high concentration of CO2 and a low concentration of NOx making the exhaust gas stream suitable for direct use in different processes, for injection in a geological formation for long term deposition or for enhanced oil and natural gas recovery.

Abstract: An ink containment and dispensing device (10) for an ink-jet printer is provided with a main reservoir in the form of a flexible pouch (14), which is typically maintained at ambient pressure. The main reservoir is coupled to a variable volume chamber via a one-way valve which allows the flow of ink from the reservoir to the chamber and prevents the flow of ink from the chamber to the reservoir. The chamber is coupled to a fluid outlet (20), which is normally closed to prevent the outward flow of ink. However, when the ink supply is installed in a printer, the fluid outlet establishes a fluid connection between the chamber and the printer. The chamber is part of a pump (18) provided with the ink supply that can be actuated to supply ink from the reservoir to the printer. The pump has a linearly acting pumping member and a flexible diaphragm (44) that overlies the pumping member, the diaphragm being impervious to the transmission of oxygen and moisture therethrough to prevent degradation of the ink within the chamber. The flexible pouch is contained within a rigid, outer shell (12) having an opposed pair of shorter sides interspersed with an opposed pair of longer sides, and the shorter sides of the shell, in the region of the closed end of a cup-shaped shell, are configured for grasping and for identifying the location of the closed end of the shell. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in a patient, comprising the steps of: (1) providing a sample of an appropriate body fluid from said patient; (2) detecting the presence of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) with an altered glycosylation pattern in said sample. It has been established that approximately 75-95% of the AChE in the CSF of AD patients binds to Concanavalin (Con A) or wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) but with different specificity to each. Accordingly, in order to identify the glycosylation pattern of AChE in the sample, the binding to Con A is determined, then the binding to WGA is determined, and a ratio calculated. The ratio is characteristic of the glycosylation pattern. In alternative embodiment of the invention a monoclonal antibody specific for AChE with an altered glycosylation pattern is used to detect its presence.
