Title: Control method for the air-conditioning treatment of products
Inventor: MARX MARTIN
IPC: G05B19/042
Filed: 2005-07-13
Abstract: A control method for the air-conditioning treatment of products cyclically measures, at definable time intervals, the product temperature and, according thereto, automatically adjusts several environmental parameters inside the treatment chamber. In order to provide a process that is automatic and gentle and to save energy and time in comparison to conventional methods, actual values for a characteristic temperature of the product, the temperature of the air inside the treatment chamber and the temperature of the incoming air are measured in each cycle. At least at the beginning of the treatment process, the desired final state of the product is defined based on characteristic parameters, and set values for the measured parameters for the next cycle are automatically determined from the measured and defined parameters and, in the next measuring cycle, are compared with the respective actual values.

Patent CA-2609217-A1 (CA)
Title: Method and apparatus for making crystalline polymeric pellets and granules
Inventor: MANN ROBERT G
IPC: B29C71/00
Filed: 2006-05-24
Abstract: A method and apparatus for underwater pelletizing and subsequent drying of crystallizing polymers to crystallize the polymer pellets without subsequent heating is shown in Figure 5. High velocity air or other inert gas is injected into the water and pellet slurry line (120) toward the dryer near the pelletizer exit (102) at a flow rate of from about 100 to about 175 m3/hour, or more. Such high-speed air movement forms a vapor mist with the water and significantly increases the speed of the pellets into and out of the dryer such that the polymer pellets leave the dryer with sufficient latent heat to cause self-crystallization within the pellets. A valve mechanism in the slurry line (150) after the gas injection further regulates the pellet residence time and a vibrating conveyor after the dryer helps the pellets to achieve the desired level of crystallinity and to avoid agglomeration.
