The mother strip, having been preheated, to a temperature clearly above ambient temperature, especially above 200 DEG  C., is introduced into the metal bath. The preheating is carried out by indirect heat exchange with the melt bath in an oxygen-free environment. The melt freshly supplied to the melt bath has an increased temperature in accordance with the heat lost due to preheating.

Abstract: The main bridge (6) supporting the load has one or more supporting members (8) more flexible or elastic than it. These members are flat, and protrude from the bridge in the sideways direction, parts of them extending upwards beyond the bridge surface. The members can bend downwards under load, the area nearest the bridge bending at the most through no greater an angle than one further away. Each member can form a wing-type lip sloping upwards. Alternatively, it can be divided into several segments. There can be a flat horizontal supporting member along its outer edge.

Abstract: A process for desulphurization of a gaseous substrate containing O2, SO2, SO3, H2, SO4, H2S, CS2, COS and/or organic sulphur-containing components. The combustible components are oxidized catalytically into H2O, CO2, and SO2. The SO2 is further oxidized catalytically into SO3, which in presence in the substrate of at least an equivalent amount of H2O in the gas, is further hydrated and condensed as sulphuric acid. The process is conducted in two reactors that are connected in series, each reactor being loaded with a layer of inert material below a layer of oxidation catalyst. The process includes reversing a direction of gas flow in the reactors after periods of about 1-40 minutes. The temperature in layers of the oxidation catalyst in the reactors is maintained in a range of 300-500<o>C. The temperature of the gas stream leaving the reactors is at least 50<o>C below the H2SO4 dew point of the process gas after oxidation of the sulphur content in the feed gas. Condensed sulphuric acid is drained off from the bottom of each of the reactors.

Abstract: A regenerative thermal oxidizer in which contaminated air is first passed through a hot heat-exchange bed and into a communicating high temperature oxidation (combustion) chamber, and then through a relatively cool second heat exchange bed. The apparatus includes a number of internally insulated, ceramic filled heat recovery columns topped by an internally insulated combustion chamber. From the combustion chamber, the air flows vertically downward through another column containing heat exchange media, thereby storing heat in the media for use in a subsequent inlet cycle when the flow control valves reverse. Temperature is sensed within the bed of heat exchange media in order to monitor the temperature profile and control a bypass of hot combustion gases should the temperature exceed a predetermined level.

Abstract: A method is disclosed whereby the concentration of a blood substitute, such as cross-linked hemoglobin, in a serum or plasma specimen is rapidly and accurately identified and quantified. The method further takes the measured concentration of the blood substitute and uses it to correct for its effect, if any, on a measured analyte concentration, e.g., serum/plasma total protein. Further, the method allows for the determination of the concentration of true hemoglobin in the presence of blood substitutes. The method is carried out in respect of samples contained in a primary or secondary labelled tube, or a pipette tip used to dispense serum or plasma in a blood analyzer.
