Abstract: STRADDLE CRANE APPARATUS                 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE          A straddle crane including four vertical column members two side beam or torsion members, and at least one header beam member, and having wheel or caster assemblies supporting each vertical column member.  The straddle crane is implemented for two-wheel or four-wheel steering and for two-wheel or four-wheel driving with open or closed ends.  The structures of the header beam and the side beam members are appropriately selected, and the attachment means therefor to the vertical column members are chosen to accommodate the various forces and stresses occurring on the structure during normal operation over uneven terrain or surfaces.  The header beam member is sufficiently flexible to permit movement of the casters over and in contact with uneven terrain without producing unaccept-able shear stresses in the header beam member.  The torsion beam member defines a closed geometric figure in cross section to provide torsional and bending resistance to the loads applied to the vertical columns.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF DISCLOSURE           Method of treating biomass material wherein it is subjected to two stage hydrolysis in which in first stage, the more easily hydrolyzed polysaccharides, such as hemicelluloses, are depolymerized and in second stage the more difficultly depolymerizable material, e.g., cellulose, is depolymerized.          The biomass material is preferably subjected to a sensitization step between the first and second hydrolysing stages by contact with molecular oxygen.  The resulting hydrolysate and remaining solids are variously treated, including recycling of hydrolysate to first stage hydrolysis; countercurrent or co-current flow of recycled hydrolysate is carried out according to the nature of solids; acid is added at appropriate points, preferably nitric acid to provide nutrients for fermentation or to inhibit corrosion of equipment; bases such as calcium carbonate or hydroxide are added to neutralize hydrolysate for fermentation; wet oxidation and methanation are carried out to solubilize refractory solids (wet oxidation) and to produce methane (methanation); and ferric and/or aluminum ions are added to flocculate solids in the hydrolysate and such ions are recovered and resolubilized by wet oxidation and are routed to the hydrolysis stages to function as catalysts.

Abstract: A B S T R A C T     In the initial stages of a fermentation of carbohydrate to form alcohol, the growth of the yeast is controlled by monitoring the pH value of a fermenting liquid or wort and controlling the supply of oxygen to the fermenting liquid or wort in accordance with the pH value.  Preferably the tem-perature of the fermenting liquid is also controlled in dependence upon the pH value of the fermenting liquid or wort.  It is particularly preferred that the control of the fermentation process is carried out automatically by an apparatus including a fermentation vessel 1, a pH sensor 8, 9, 10 arranged to provide an output signal representative of the pH of the liquid in the vessel 1, memory means to store information on the required pH with regard to the fermentation time, means 11, 12, 13 to inject oxygen into the fermenting liquid and control means 15 to compare the output signal of the pH sensor at a particular time with that of the required pH at that time, and, in the event of the pH of the fermenting liquid lagging behind that required, actuate the means 11, 12, 13 to inject oxygen into the fermenting liquid to increase the oxygen content of the fermenting liquid.

Abstract: SEMICONDUCTOR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT CAPACITOR            Abstract Polyoxide capacitors for semiconductor integrated circuits having oxide dielectric films of 500 Angstroms or less are fabricated using in-situ doped polysilicon layers to have electrical field breakdowns of from 6 to 9 MV/cm. The first polysilicon layer is formed by LPCVD using silane and phosphene at a temperature in the range from about 570 degrees C to 595 degrees C.          These capacitors are relatively precisely valued devices used particularly in applications such as filter/codecs.  However, they are useful wherever integral capacitors are needed having high dielectric strength polyoxides, including such semiconductor integrated circuit devices as EPROMs and dynamic RAMs.
