Abstract: A multi-phase staged passive reactor (10) for promoting interphasic interaction of a first substance in a liquid phase with a second substance in a non-miscible liquid phase, a solid phase or a gaseous phase. The reactor comprises a plurality of stages (C, D and E) which define a flow path for the substances in different phases. Each stage is shaped to define a substantially curved flow path (12) having a centre of curvature located to one side of the flow path (12). Thus, for example, stages (D) and (E) have a respective centre of curvature (14, 16), on opposite sides of the flow path (12) whereby, in use, as the substances flow through the reactor (10) particles of the second substance are forced to migrate through the first substance, first in one direction and then in substantially the reverse direction due to an inertial field of changing direction thus generated. Due to the differences in the relative densities of the respective phases, differential inertial forces are exerted on each phase as the mixture flows along the general flow direction of the flow path (12) the interphasic interaction thus produced includes both mechanical interaction due to, for example, collisions and energy transfer, as well as chemical reactions due to, for example, oxidation and ion-exchange. There are no moving parts in the reactor (10) which is of relatively simple construction, and it is extremely efficient, achieving high reaction rates, high mass transfer rates and high mixing rates. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>

Abstract: Methods for making, methods for using and articles comprising ferromagnetic cermets, preferably cemented carbides and more preferably tungsten carbide, having at least two regions exhibiting at least one property that differs are discussed. The multiple-region cermets are particularly useful in wear applications. The cermets are manufactured by juxtaposing and densifying at least two powder blends having different properties (e.g., differential carbide grain size or differential carbide chemistry or differential binder content or differential binder chemistry or differential magnetic saturation or any combination of the preceding). Preferably, a first region of the cermet comprises a first hard component having a prescribed binder content and a first magnetic saturation and a second region, juxtaposing or adjoining the first region, comprising a second binder content different than the binder content of the first region and a second magnetic saturation different than that of the first region. These articles have an extended useful life relative to the useful life of monolithic cermets in such applications as, for example, wear. The multiple region cermets of the present invention may be used with articles comprising tools for materials manipulation or removal including, for example, mining, construction, agricultural, and machining applications.

Abstract: A chemically bonded medium is obtained from a resilient organic macromolecular material, in cut elongate of finely divided form (such as grass or peat). The material is dried (3, 4) under conditions permitting escape of water vapour, such that the dried material has a predominantly hydrophobic surface and a water content of not more than 10 % by weight; and then optionally flashed. The surface properties of the dried material are then equilibrated, under conditions inhibiting escape of water vapour and other volatiles, such that the predominantly hydrophobic surface is rendered predominantly hydrophilic. The product is then mixed (5) with a lignosulfonate, with application of heat in an amount sufficient to maintain the lignosulfonate in fluid form, such that the lignosulfonate forms a coating film on the surface. The lignosulfonate is caused to undergo partial polymerisation (6) (typically by heating and/or treatment with oxygen) on the surface of the dried material to produce a flowable, substantially non-resilient and non-tacky, chemically bonded medium. The bonded medium may be stored or shaped (8) under pressure to form agglomerates.

Abstract: A mobile apparatus and method for treating contaminated soil is disclosed. The apparatus consists of three interconnected subunits, namely a fluidized bed reactor for segregating an aqueous soil slurry based on particle size; a metals extraction unit for removing heavy metals and other contaminants from the contaminated soil fraction; and a water treatment system utilizing a high density sludge process to remove metals from the contaminated aqueous phase. The fluidized bed reactor includes a relatively small mixing chamber and a relatively large settling chamber which are partially separated by a baffle. Pressurized gas and foaming agent are dispersed into the mixing chamber to segregate the soil particles into a first fraction containing relatively small, contaminated soil particles and a second fraction containing relatively large, uncontaminated soil particles. The first fraction is continuously withdrawn from an upper portion of the reactor as a foam and a soil slurry containing the relatively uncontaminated second fraction is continuously withdrawn from a lower portion of the reactor. The soil slurry is dewatered by means of a hydrocyclone and a solids trap. Water, foaming agent and any suspended fines are recycled to the reactor vessel.

Abstract: A method of maintaining a high value of heat transfer coefficient for a metal heat transfer surface in which the surface energy of the heat transfer surface is reduced by ion implantation or other surface modification techniques. The reduction in surface energy of the heat transfer surface delays the onset of scale formation and additionally reduces the adherence of any scale formed to the metal surface. Besides ion implantation, the energy may be reduced by magnetron sputter ion plating or plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD). A combination of these techniques may be used. Implanted ions include Cr + , F + , C + , H + , N + or SiF 3  + , the C + and F + being obtained from PTFE. Materials deposited by PECVD include Si 3 N 4 , Si, SiC, hexamethyldisalazane, tetraethylorthosilicate, or trimethylvinylsilane. As illustrated in Fig 5 dynamic mixing ion implantation may be used where two or more species of ion are simultaneously implanted.
