Title: Exhaust gas purification system for reducing hydrocarbon emissions during the cold start of combustion engines
Inventor: LINDNER DIETER
IPC: F01N13/02
Filed: 1993-11-26
Abstract: The invention relates to an exhaust gas purification system for decreasing the emissions of hydrocarbons during the cold start of internal combustion engines. The exhaust gas purification system contains a hydrocarbon adsorber and a downstream catalyst system which can be composed of a single three-way catalyst or of a combination of oxidation, reduction and/or three-way catalysts in one or more beds. The hydrocarbon emissions during the cold start phase can be significantly decreased by using oxidation catalysts or three-way catalysts which, in comparison with conventional catalysts, have at least twice the loading of platinum and/or palladium.

Title: Contaminant detector
Inventor: BRIGGS DENNIS
IPC: G01N21/31
Filed: 1997-11-21
Abstract: A contaminant detector including a light source for emitting light of a wavelength with peak emission corresponding to that of "blue" light or to that of light of even lower wavelength. Light is emitted through an arrangement containing a liquid sample having a given contaminant, and a sensing arrangement on the other side of the liquid sample detects the amount of light passing through the liquid sample. The measured light is converted into a value indicative of the relative presence of the given contaminant in the liquid sample. It is contemplated that other types of light can be used, particularly if the color of the light is matched, or even approximately matched, with that portion of the liquid sample that is not to be measured (i.e. the "background" or "non-contaminant" portion of the liquid). <IMAGE>

Title: Method and device for separating metals and/or metal alloys of different melting points
Inventor: VERDOES DIRK
IPC: B01D9/00
Filed: 1997-12-09
Abstract: In order to separate metals and/or metal alloys of different melting points from one another, a mixture of these metals and/or metal alloys is brought to a temperature at which the metal or the metal alloy of relatively low melting point is molten and the metal or the metal alloy of relatively high melting point is in the solid state. The solid constituents are separated from the melt, use being made of washing column with at least one filter which withstands the temperature of molten metal. Each of the filters is arranged in the wall of a separate pipe which extends through the washing column. The mixture is fed to one end of the washing column and moves along the pipe or pipes, towards means arranged at the opposite side of the washing column for removing solid crystalline material. The melt passes via the filter or filters into the pipe or pipes, and flows in countercurrent to the mixture situated on the outside of the pipe or pipes, towards a melt discharge. A suspension zone situated in an upper part of the washing column changes into a packed bed of crystals. At the bottom of the washing column, the crystals are washed in countercurrent with their own recirculated melt.
