Abstract: A method for processing carbonaceous material in a reactor. Carbonaceous material, such as sawdust, plant residues from forestry or agricultural processes, municipal solid waste and refuse derived fuel, is fed into the riser section (10) of a reactor (10-15) in which it is contacted with inorganic particulate material and reactor walls at an elevated temperature essentially in the absence of oxygen in order to convert the carbonaceous material at least mainly into gaseous processed products, whereby a gas phase is obtained, containing fluidization gas and processed products. According to the invention a dense suspension is formed into the riser space (10) of the reactor, containing based on the particle number 7x10<8 >to 3x10<11 >particles/m<3 >(about 2x10<7>-1x10<10 >particles/ft<3>), and the mass ratio between the particulate matter bringing heat into the reactor and the carbonaceous material is in the range of 1:1 to 10:1. By the invention, the mixing of the heat transfer medium and the feed is improved, and coarser and less uniform feed can be used than conventionally.

Abstract: The present invention is a method of producing
an annealed wafer wherein a silicon single crystal
wafer having a diameter of 200 mm or more
produced by the Czochralski (CZ) method is
subjected to a high temperature heat treatment in
an atmosphere of an argon gas, a hydrogen gas, or a
mixture gas thereof at a temperature of 1100-1350°C
for 10-600 minutes, and before the high
temperature heat treatmen, a pre-annealing is
performed at a temperature less than the
temperature of the high temperature heat treatment,
so that the growth of slip dislocations is
suppressed by growing oxide precipitates. Thereby,
there is provided a method of producing an
annealed wafer wherein the generation and growth of
slip dislocations generated in a high temperature
heat treatment are suppressed and the defect
density in the wafer surface layer is lowered even
in the case of a silicon single crystal wafer
having a large diameter of 200 mm or more, and the
annealed wafer.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide an intake passage member
that can be formed by die casting or injection molding of a synthetic resin which
allows the removal of cores from the mold without destruction of the cores even in
cases where there is a bent part in the intake passage. The present invention

a bent part, and an insulator which is interposed between the abovementioned intake
passage main body part and the internal combustion engine, wherein the intake
passage of the abovementioned insulator is extended in the direction in which the
intake air flows through, a portion of the bent part of the abovementioned intake
passage is formed in the intake passage of the insulator, and the intake passages of
both the intake passage main body part and insulator are formed with shapes that
allow cores to be removed from the mold. Since the cores can be removed from the
mold without destroying the cores, the intake passage member can be manufactured
