Abstract: A process is disclosed for incinerating sewage sludge (1). Sewage sludge is dried by a drier (30) heated by means of a heat transfer medium, then incinerated in a furnace, preferably a cycloid furnace. The heat transfer medium is heated during the incineration process and the furnace smoke gas is dedusted and purified. In order to discharge non-contaminated solids, a basic additive (9a, 9b) is fed to the furnace, the smoke gas is subjected to a first dedusting (17) and cooling (13) process, and its heat is again removed by cooling it down to a lower temperature higher than the limit cooling temperature of the smoke gas. Another basic additive (22) is then added to the smoke gas before the smoke gas is dedusted (23) in a filter. The first dedusting process (17) is carried out before heat is removed for drying the sewage sludge.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a device for using a reagent for converting a pollutant in an exhaust gas in a catalytic converter. The reagent is metered as a function of operational parameters of the exhaust gas and of a temperature of the catalytic converter. The reagent is added to the exhaust gas to form a mixture, and the mixture is fed through the catalytic converter. The temperature is determined recursively as a spatially and time-dependent function of the catalytic converter from the operational parameters of the exhaust gas and structural parameters of the catalytic converter. Catalytic activity in the catalytic converter is determined from the derived temperature and the reagent is metered as a function of the catalytic activity.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a tipping paper adapted for wrapping a filter of a smoking article. The tipping paper contains a pigment made from calcium carbonate particles having a median size of between about 0.1 microns to about 0.5 microns. The calcium carbonate pigment can be used to create a tipping paper having an opacity of up to at least 89%. In comparison to conventional tipping papers, it has been surprisingly discovered that the tipping paper of the present invention reduces knife wear of a cutting instrument used to cut the paper and is less retentive to solvents when the paper is printed with a solvent based ink or covered with a solvent based coating.

Abstract: The coupling has an inner compression sleeve (4,9) which is placed axially over the end (3) of a pipe, and a supporting sleeve (1,2) with a profiled external perimeter, which is inserted into the end of the pipe. An outer compression sleeve (11) is placed axially over the inner one. At least one of the sleeves is made at least partly from a synthetic material, so that the radial tensioning forces on the pipe from the inner compression and supporting sleeves, and also the forces arising in use from mechanical and thermal loadings and the physical properties of the pipe, remain the same as a result of the elastic properties of the synthetic material. The inner compression sleeve may be made completely from the latter.

Abstract: A collapsible tube (7) is provided to fix the handles (1) of car doors, to avoid serious injuries in case of inner deformation due to side impacts on the vehicle. This prevents risks of damages for the passengers of the vehicle, as it expands radially and shortens. This invention provides a simple technical solution to achieve the automatic reduction of the length and the rigidity of the tubes through which the handle is assembled to the door. It consists in that the wall of these tubular parts (7) incorporate longitudinal grooves (6) with an uniform angular distribution, reaching the end distant from the door, where it is connected to the wing that forms the handle, laid between two tubular parts (7). Contributing to the "collapsible" quality of the tubular piece (7), the walls have a longitudinal section decreasing from both ends of the tube towards the centre, thus forming a ring-shaped weakening line (8). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method estimating a property or parameter of a nucleic acid material, which property or parameter is one to which the electrical conductivity of the nucleic acid material is related, comprises measuring the electrical conductivity of the nucleic acid material, and estimating from the measurement the property or parameter of the material by reference to a predetermined relationship between electrical conductivity and said property or parameter. This is based on the discovery that there are certain important properties of nucleic acids, the quantitative determination of which is frequently desirable, which can be assessed by measurement of the conductivity of a solution of the nucleic acid or acids. Changes in such properties may be reflected in corresponding changes of electrical conductivity. The concentration of nucleic acid in solution and the molecular weight of a species of nucleic acid are examples of important property which may be determined.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de commande d'une soupape d'injection (16) de moteur à combustion interne deux temps rapide, à injection de carburant, selon lequel un signal de déclenchement est produit à chaque tour du moteur en un point de déclenchement (TP1, TP2). Le processus d'injection est induit d'après ledit signal de déclenchement. A bas régime, le début de l'injection se situe dans une première zone (ESB1) de l'angle de rotation du vilebrequin. A haut régime, le début de l'injection se situe dans une seconde zone (ESB2) de l'angle de rotation du vilebrequin. Par rapport à la première zone (ESB1), cette seconde zone (ESB2) est décalée en amont vis-à-vis du point mort supérieur (OT). Selon ce procédé, on obtient une tenue en service optimale du fait qu'un point de déclenchement (TP1 et TP2) propre est attribué à chacune des zones (ESB1 et ESB2) et que lors du passage d'un bas régime à un régime élevé, la commande est inversée entre les deux points de déclenchement (TP1, TP2).
