IPC: B01J8/02
Filed: 1985-03-09
Granted: 1989-08-02
Abstract: The invention relates to a reactor for industrial plants, e.g. for an ammonia synthesis plant, comprising several catalyst beds in series charged by a radial gas flow. The object is to provide for a uniform gas flow through the catalyst bed along its entire height, otherwise different space velocities are experienced within the catalyst bed involving irregularities in the reaction. The problem is solved when the cross-section of the annular space for the effluent reaction gas flowing in axial direction is equal to or larger than the cross-section of the annular space for the influent fresh gas flowing in axial direction.

IPC: D01H4/06
Filed: 1985-07-10
Granted: 1988-09-07
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for production of yarn by friction spinning is disclosed. The friction spinning method employs a perforated friction spinning drum towards which a fibre feed passage projects. An opening roller, known from the open-end rotor spinning process, feeds separated fibres into the fibre feed passage, which fibres are taken up by a transport air flow in the fibre feed passage. This transport air flow is produced by the perforated friction spinning drum which is subjected to underpressure. Fibres leaving an opening of the fibre feed passage are laid in an inclined disposition on the perforated friction spinning drum and transported in this disposition towards a yarn end forming at a yarn formation position. The spun yarn is withdrawn by a withdrawal roller pair. Advantageously, a second friction spinning drum is provided parallel to the first perforated friction spinning drum to cause the fibre twisting-in process to take place in a more accurately defined manner.

Granted: 1992-07-15
Abstract: La culture de souche modifiée génétiquement et par des techniques propres de Lactobacillus casei sous-espèce rhoamnosus) en présence de Veillonella criceti dans un milieu contenant un hydrate de carbone fermentable a comme résultat la production de propionate, d'acétate, de bioxyde de carbone et d'hydrogène. En l'absence de l'une ou l'autre des souches, les hydrates de carbone ne sont généralement pas fermentés en propionate. Dans des conditions optimales de fermentation le lactate, le produit principal du métabolisme des hydrates de carbone de L.casei, est rapidement métabolisé en propionate, acétate, dioxyde de carbone et hydrogène par V.criceti et est présent dans le milieu de culture en une concentration inférieure à 0,5 milligramme par millilitre. Le rendement de propionate produit est environ 1,4 mole de propionate par mole de monosaccharide fermentable ou 2,8 moles par mole de disaccharide fermentable utilisé. Outre la fermentation du propionate, le lactate peut-être accumulé en bloquant sa conversion en propionate par ajustement du pH, de la température ou du degré d'aération du milieu de fermentation. Ainsi, un mélange de propionate, d'acétate et de lactate peut être produit efficacement à partir d'hydrates de carbone fermentables par la culture combinée de ces souches bactériennes.

Abstract: An incinerator system includes: a main chamber (32); double reburn tunnels (41,42); an excitor (134,158) within a reburn tunnel; a grate (234) near the incinerator's inlet (231) to permit the drying and initial combustion of refuse, and an ash scoop (278). The use of dual reburn tunnels (41,42), along with a damper (69,70) that permits the closure of at least one of them, permits the efficient and environmentally acceptable utilization of the main incinerator chamber (32) even with minimal refuse contained there. With less refuse, only one reburn unit (41,42) operates; it will still have sufficient heat and throughput to maintain, with minimal auxiliary fuel, the temperature needed for complete combustion. An excitor (134,158), or solid stationary object placed within the reburn tunnel (41,42), permits the retention and reflection of the heat generated by the burning to assure complete combustion of all hydrocarbons within the reburn unit. Additionally, the air utilized in the reburn unit may enter through the excitor for efficient distribution and concomitant combustion. <IMAGE>

Abstract: To fill low-weight, high-volume goods, such as potato chips, popcorn and the like into bags as the bags are being made, the fill goods are introduced into a hopper and a filling funnel which is joined to a fill tube. The fill tube has air inlet openings at the upper portion, air outlet openings at the lower portion, and then continues to a holder and bag-forming tube. A film (102), for example, of plastic, is wrapped about the bag forming tube (105), and seamed vertically, so that the tube is being made as goods are introduced into the hopper and funnel. An air stream (B) is generated longitudinally in the fill tube (103) by introducing air under above-atmospheric pressure into the upper air inlet openings (104) formed as downwardly directed flap nozzles (119), the air being removed from lower openings (122) and, for example, recirculated in the recirculating blower (107), the openings being closed off outwardly by a jacket forming respective air inlet and outlet chambers (111,116). The fill goods are accelerated downwardly, while being prevented from "dancing" above the introduced air by the volume of the fill goods themselves within the hopper or inlet funnel (101). The bag is formed by usual vertical bag seaming apparatus (131) and cross-seamed, pinched and severed by filling and pinching jaws (113).
