Title: Method for polymerising epsilon-caprolactam to polyamide-6
Inventor: BUIJS WIM
IPC: C08G69/16
Filed: 1999-10-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the hydrolytic polymerisation of epsi-caprolactam to polyamide-6, comprising a step (a) in which ring opening of part of the epsi-caprolactam to the corresponding amino caproic acid is effected in the presence of water and a step (b) in which polyaddition and polycondensation are effected under preferably anhydrous reaction conditions, in which at least one of the steps (a) and (b) is carried out in a reactor in which a self-renewing interface between the molten phase and the gas phase with a large surface/volume ratio of the molten phase is effected. The method is preferably effected in an horizontal scraped-surface reactor, since relatively strong mixing of the molten phase can be achieved in these and the molten phase is present in a thin layer, a large gas volume is present having a relatively high partial pressure of the water vapour and the thin layer is constantly renewed by shear forces. The method can be carried out in one reactor, preferably with several reaction zones, or with several reactors in series.

Title: Recovery of lignin
Inventor: LORA JAIRO H
IPC: C07G1/00
Filed: 1986-11-04
Abstract: Lignin is precipitated in high yields and at high rates from a black liquor produced by pulping wood at high temperatures and pressures with an aqueous lower aliphatic alcohol solvent. The lignin is precipitated by diluting the black liquor with water and an acid to form a solution with a pH of less than 3, an alcohol content of less than 30% by volume and a temperature of less than 75 DEG C. The precipitated lignin, when subsequently dried, is in the form of a powder which requires little or no crushing to convert it into a fine uniform size suitable for use without further significant processing.

Title: Device for manufacturing a product gas containing hydrogen and carbon oxide
Inventor: MARSCH HANS-DIETER
IPC: B01J7/00
Filed: 1986-12-03
Abstract: A device for manufacturing a product gas containing hydrogen and carbon oxide from a feedgas mixture comprised substantiallty of hydrocarbon, includes a vessel partitioned by a tubesheet into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. Reformer tubes are mounted on and extend through the tubesheet from the upper chamber into the lower chamber. Each reformer tube is laterally enclosed over at least a portion of its axial length downwardly from the tubesheet by a jacket spaced outwardly therefrom forming an annular space extending along each said tube for establishing communication between the upper the lower chambers, allowing the product gas to be withdrawn from the upper chamber. The tubesheet forms a distribution chamber for directing the feedgas mixture into the reformer tubes. The tubesheet is formed of an inner hollow body mounted within an outer hollow body, with the two hollow bodies being in flow communication. Due to the arrangement of the hollow bodies forming the tubesheet and the jackets forming the annular spaces, the problem of reducing the pressure and temperature differences across the tubesheet is effected while maintaining good over-all performance of the reaction vessel.

Title: Touch point identification algorithm for automatic clutch controller
Inventor: SMEDLEY DANIEL G
IPC: F16H61/00
Filed: 1994-07-18
Abstract: This invention provides automatic and reliable determination of the touch point of a clutch controlled by an automatic clutch actuation controller. This invention determines the touch point upon power-up while idling the engine, with the transmission in neutral and an input shaft brake applied. The clutch actuation controller gradually engages the clutch so that the measured transmission input speed matches a reference speed signal preferably between 40% and 60% of the idle speed. If the actuation is slow enough, this reliably provides the degree of clutch engagement at a small torque matching the braking torque which is the touch point. If there is no previous knowledge of the touch point, the clutch is applied at a fast rate and an approximate touch point is determined, then the clutch is positioned below the approximate touch point and is again applied at a slow rate to more accurately ascertain the touch point. If there is previous knowledge of the touch point, the clutch is positioned just below the old touch point and is applied at a slow rate to determine a new touch point. The new and old touch points may be combined to determine the updated touch point. <IMAGE>

Patent AU-6932687-A (AU)
Title: Signal compensation circuits
Inventor: TRETT JOHN
IPC: B25J19/00
Filed: 1987-02-04
Abstract: A detection system for a sliding lift or elevator door comprises at least two sensors (24,26) for monitoring the door opening. The sensors (24,26) are arranged to detect the presence of moving irregular shape (e.g. the human form) in the doorway to reverse the opening action of the door or, if already open, to prevent the door from closing. A signal compensation circuit is provided to process the output signals from the sensors in a sense to maintain the outputs equal under steady state conditions. This is achieved by using the output of a first sensor (26) as a quasi reference signal. A comparator (113) compares the output of a second sensor (24) with a quasi reference signal and through a feedback loop (139) modifies the output of the said second sensor (24). The feedback loop (139) contains a delay circuit (117,122,123,126) which is switchable between a long and short delay. For slow changes in the output of the second sensor (24) the long delay is effective but for fast changes the delay circuit (117,122,123,126) is switched to provide a short delay. The compensation circuit is effectively desensitised against errors due to drift and other slow varying influences.
