Abstract: A process for the removal and causticisation of sodium oxalate and/or sodium sulphate from a Bayer process liquor containing sodium carbonate and one or both of sodium oxalate and sodium sulphate in an alumina refinery is described. The process is based on the observation that to efficiently causticise sodium oxalate solutions, it is first necessary to remove the aluminate ion from solution, optionally with recovery of the aluminate ion in some later step. This is effected by removing aluminate ions from the Bayer liquor through the formation of a carbonate bearing hydrocalumite and/or sulpha-bearing hydrocalumite. The liquor may then be treated with sufficient lime to remove and causticise any residual carbonate ions and some or all of the oxalate ions present so that any reacted lime solids thus formed can be separated and safely disposed of. The process may include a pre-causticisation step in which the Bayer liquor is first causticised to reduce the concentration of carbonate ions, prior to the step of removing aluminate ions. The invention provides an effective process for the removal of sodium sulphate and a practical method for the recovery of soda from sodium sulphate. The efficiency of lime utilisation can also be dramatically increased from about 20% to 80% (if sulphate removal is not the objective) wherein alumina losses can be minimised. The oxalate concentration of the process liquor is also substantially lower than can usually be achieved in processes based on sodium oxalate-crystallisation.

Abstract: Ensemble rideau de lumière possédant une réflexion diffuse et comprenant au moins un rideau de lumière définissant la limite de la zone de travail d'un robot. Chaque rideau de lumière comporte un tableau de base dans lequel se trouvent des alvéoles multiples. Des diodes électroluminescentes et des détecteurs de lumière sont placés alternativement dans les alvéoles multiples. La lumière émise par les diodes électroluminescentes brille hors des alvéoles afin de constituer un rideau de lumière au-dessus du tableau de base. Si un objet vient en contact avec le rideau de lumière émise par les diodes électroluminescentes, la lumière est renvoyée par réflexion vers le tableau et pénètre dans les alvéoles de ce dernier, dans lesquelles les détecteurs de lumière détectent la présence de lumière émise par les diodes électroluminescentes. Quand les détecteurs de lumière placés dans les alvéoles détectent la présence de lumière émise par les diodes électroluminescentes, ils envoient un signal à une unité de commande, de manière à indiquer que le rideau de lumière a été déchiré par un objet étranger. L'unité de commande, à son tour, interrompt le fonctionnement du robot protégé par le rideau de lumière. Dans le cas d'une utilisation de rideaux de lumière multiples afin de définir une pluralité de zones de travail, les détecteurs peuvent être reliés à l'unité de commande, de façon à déterminer la position physique du robot. Cette unité de commande met sélectivement en service et hors service chacun de ces rideaux de lumière en fonction d'entrées reçues depuis les détecteurs afin de permettre à des objets étrangers de pénétrer dans des zones de travail spécifiques à des moments différents pendant le fonctionnement du robot.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for desulfurization of at least one NOx storage catalyst mounted in the exhaust gas duct of an internal combustion engine, comprising at least one gas sensor mounted downstream of said NOx storage catalyst. After the need for desulfurization has been detected, a minimum temperature is regulated in the NOx storage catalyst and the internal combustion engine is set to a rich working mode with μ < 1 by influencing at least temporarily at least one operating parameter of the internal combustion engine. According to the invention: a) after the need for desulfurization has been determined and a minimum temperature has been reached, the internal combustion engine (14) is initially set to a lean working mode with μ > l until a predetermined first threshold value (Sm) has been reached for lambda in the gas sensor (21) in a first phase (t1); b) after the first threshold value (Sm) has been reached, the internal combustion engine (14) is set to a thick working mode with μ < 1 until a predetermined second threshold value (Sf) is reached for lambda in the gas sensor in a second phase (t2) and c) the first phase (t1) and subsequently the second phase (t2) are repeated until a predetermined degree of desulfurization is achieved.
