Abstract: Process for the continuous hydrogenation of triglyceride containing raw materials in a fixed bed reactor system having several catalyst beds arranged in series and comprising at least e hydrogenation catalyst comprising an active phase constituted by a nickel and molybdenum element. The raw material feed, hydrogen containing gas and diluting agent are passed together through the catalyst beds at hydrogenation conditions. The raw material feed stream as well as the stream of hydrogen containing gas are divided into an equal number of different partial streams. These are each passed to one catalyst bed in such a manner that the weight ratio of diluting agent to raw material feed is essentially the same at the entrance of all catalyst beds and does not exceed 4:1. The claimed process is preferably conducted at low temperatures and allows the utilization of existing units due to the low recycle ratio.

Abstract: A two part nozzle for use in expressing thick, viscous materials therethrough comprises a nozzle base (212) and a nozzle tip (214), and screw means (242) for mounting the tip to the base. The base projects within the tip, and is proportioned to interfere with the inside wall of the tip around a narrow, continuous path, thereby providing an internal seal with the interior wall surface of a pouch to which the nozzle is coupled to prevent the back- flow of material through the screw means. Preferably, the nozzle also provides a seal on the external wall surface of the pouch, thereby reducing the possibility of material leaking both from and into the pouch. Gripping ribs (224, 278) are provided to facilitate the application of a manual force to couple and decouple the nozzle parts.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un appareil et un procédé d'imagerie à faible bruit qui utilise un capteur d'image, tel qu'un dispositif EMCCD dans lequel des charges sont accumulées et extraites à l'aide de signaux d'horloge analogique. Un dispositif de commande de capteur génère les signaux d'horloge à partir de formes d'onde numériques stockées dans des unités de mémoire qui fournissent des sorties à des convertisseurs numériques-analogiques qui, à leur tour, convertissent les signaux en une forme analogique. Les signaux analogiques sont ensuite amplifiés et appliqués au capteur. Les formes d'onde spécifiques sont déterminées par un processeur de signal numérique et stockées dans les mémoires, et les formes d'onde désirées sont lues dans les mémoires à l'aide d'un adressage fourni par un réseau prédiffusé programmable par l'utilisateur (FPGA). Les signaux d'horloge peuvent être des sinusoïdes, ou peuvent être des formes d'onde plus complexes, et les formes d'onde peuvent être modifiées par un utilisateur. Les temps de montée des signaux d'horloge peuvent être rendus progressifs de façon à minimiser les contributions de bruit.
