Abstract: A process for preparing a high protein or low fat nut spread having desirable fluidity, texture and flavor. The process comprises as a first step depositing a nut paste in a mixing tank. Next, the solid ingredients which are to be present in the final product spread are mixed into the tank containing the peanut paste. The Casson plastic viscosity of the mixture is adjusted to about 30 poise or less. This mixture is then pumped through a homogenizer and a colloid mill or series of colloid mills. Nut spreads having a bimodal particle size distribution such that at least 50% of the solids in the nut spread have a particle size of less than 18 microns and 90% of the solids in the nut spread have a particle size of less than 60 microns, and further having a Casson plastic viscosity of from about 8 to about 17 poise and a yield value of less than about 300 dynes per square centimeter are produced according to this process.

Abstract: The cleaning process involves cleaning out the cask with lye and then with a flushing fluid such as water. The flushing out is done in several phases. In the first or subsequent phases, the flushing fluid used is from the second or later flushing of a cask already cleaned out. The cask may be flushed in two phases, using fresh water for the last phase. This water is passed through a pH probe or something similar, or its electrical conductivity is measured. When a certain pH or conductivity value is reached, the supply of fluid is stopped.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for fabricating a helicopter main rotor blade (100) include a compaction fixture (10) for assembling and compacting blade subassembly components and a sheath spreading/insertion apparatus (50) for spreading and inserting a leading-edge sheath (120) onto the blade subassembly during the compaction process. The compaction fixture includes a lower assembly (12) having a contoured upper airfoil nest (14) mounted in combination with a support structure and an upper assembly (30) having a pressure bag (32) affixed in sealed combination to a contoured backplate affixed in combination to a structural support truss (36). With the upper and lower assemblies in locked combination, the pressure bag is pressurized to compact the assembled blade subassembly components. The sheath spreading/insertion apparatus (50) includes a movable stanchion (52), upper (60U) and lower (60L) elongate carriage members mounted in synchronized movable combination with the stanchion, and a row of suction cups (66) mounted in combination with each carriage member. A vacuum source (68) is pneumatically interconnected to the suction cups (66) to generate suction forces to cause the leading-edge sheath to be spread apart. Movement of the movable stanchion causes the spread-apart leading-edge sheath to be inserted onto the blade subassembly during compaction thereof.

Abstract: In order to reduce the power consumed by mobile radio transmitting/receiving devices (PT1, PT2) and thus increase their maximum possible duration of operation, the device-specific transmitting power is automatically regulated depending on special information (FSW, A-CRC, X-CRC), such as field intensity values (FSW) and transmission error values (A-CRC, X-CRC), received and acquired by the mobile radio transmitting/receiving device. The mobile radio transmitting/receiving device (PT1, PT2) has for that purpose a sequential control circuit (RK), in which the value of the controlled variables (here the device-specific transmitting power) follows the changing value of the command variable (here the received and acquired special information).

Abstract: A method for bleaching cellulosic and lignocellulosic pulp using hydrogen peroxide as a bleaching reagent, utilizes a three stage reaction, viz. two short high temperature peroxide bleaching steps (50,160) at a pressure sufficient to suppress boiling and an interstage treatment (90) including a longer atmospheric pressure reduced temperature bleaching step. The two short peroxide bleaching stages include the steps of introducing pulp, at a consistency of 10%-18%, to a mixer (20,130) in which the pulp is heated to a temperature above 100 degree Celsius; adding sufficient sodium hydroxide (32,142) to bring the pulp to a pH of 8.5; adding sufficient hydrogen peroxide (33,143) to equal from about 0.5%-5.0%, by weight, of the pulp; passing the pulp through a pressurized reactor column (50,160) at a rate providing a reaction time in the column of less than 45 minutes, cooling the pulp and discharging the cooled pulp to a washer. It may be desirable to introduce the pulp to a mixer and add alkali to reactivate residual hydrogen peroxide by bringing the pulp to a pH of at least 9 after the first bleaching stage, deposit the pulp in a reaction tower and allowing the reaction to proceed until a substantial portion of the residual hydrogen has been consumed. <IMAGE>
